"Did you take a test?" He puts his tux back on then leans his back on the counter.
"I don't need to take a test. I'm not pregnant."
"You know it's not such a bad thing."
"Maybe not for you." I look over at him, his eyes are stern and stuck on me "Can we talk about this when we're like in our twenties?"
"Whenever you're ready." I hear him say but I'm already looking at myself in the mirror, I brush my straightened hair out brushing it all behind my ears. It'll be pretty obvious that I have the mark since I started the night without one and I'm finishing the night with one.
I move to him and before I'm even there he pulls me in letting his hands rest on my ass "I think we'll make the cutest baby."
"One?" I ignore his question and fix his collar, one child was all my mother could give my father. With my fear of giving birth, he's lucky I wanna give his ass a child. I run my hand through the back of his hair then he leans in puckering and I kiss him gladly.
We make it downstairs hand in hand, I'm a little thankful when no heads turn our way. No heads except Baileys who's always looking my way that it. "I need to go find your father." Saints words make my heart drop.
"For what?" I ask behind him.
"He wanted to see me." He turns stopping "I'll see you around." He leans down giving me a quick peck on the cheek before letting go and getting dragged away by the mob of people. Where's he going? Nia sulks Does he have to go now? Oh shut up! I wanna scream to her but keep myself composed.
I move back towards the room my mother's in and knock before entering "Mom," I drag it a little walking into her holding her sleeping child.
"You don't need to say it, you're glowing." She tells me looking up "Oh and he's marked you!" She smiles and I glance over at my shoulder before looking back at her.
"How much of it did you hear?" I sit crossing my ankles.
