11. The Snap
A buzzing sound filled my ears as I pushed past him and shut myself in the bathroom. I leaned against the door for a second, wondering what I should do. Grabbing some toilet paper, I wiped his seed out of me but quickly realized that would be too little too late. Turning on the shower, I let the water pour over me, hoping that I might wash this reality away.
âJazz, you okay?â Shawn asked, knocking on the bathroom door. I didnât answer him. I was too busy trying not to be pregnant. Though, with my luck, that is exactly how Iâd get pregnant. Having sex with a one-week fling.
âJazz...â I heard the bathroom door open, but I kept scrubbing. âTalk to me,â he pleaded.
Dropping my shoulders, I turned off the water. When I opened the curtain, he was holding a towel for me.
âThanks,â I muttered, stepping out to dry off.
âAre you okay?â
âI need to get dressed. Find the nurseâs station.â I shoved past him to search for some clothes. He was close on my heels, but I didnât stop. After unzipping my case, I yanked out a sundress from bag 4 and pulled it over my body. Once it was over my head, however, I realized something.
âWait.â Relief flooded through me. âI forgot. You said you canât have children. I donât need to stress about being pregnant.â I plopped myself on the bed. âThank God.â
When he didnât say anything back, I glanced up at him. He rubbed at the back of his neck. A gesture he seemed to do when he was nervous. I sat up. My eyes were wide.
âYou canât have kids, right?â I asked. My heart started to beat fast.
âMorally, no. I canât have kids. Iâm an alcoholic. Which can be hereditary. I donât want to pass such a curse on to anyone. But technically, I can have children. Sorry. I should have made that clearer, huh?â
âFuck. So, I could be pregnant?â I whispered.
âAre you not on the pill?â His eyebrows pinched together in worry.
âI was, for most of my life. But Dwayne had a vasectomy, so I got off it a few years ago.â
âHe had a vasectomy? Then why did you pack condoms?â
A logical question with a ridiculous answer. âDwayne hates the mess. Heâs a total neat freak. I was being a tad hopeful with packing so many, knowing realistically we might get in two rounds before the week was said and done.â I ran my hands over my face and stared at the wall in shock.
âSo, you could be pregnant.â The tone of his voice was clear. He was scared. He didnât want this.
âTo the nurseâs station, it is,â I said, standing up. âMaybe they have Plan B.â
âWhoa, Plan B? You want to terminate it? You donât want to talk about this at all?â
I slipped into my sandals as he followed behind me. âTalk about what exactly? Having a baby with a man I have known for all of two days? A man Iâm not technically married to.
