Uh. Hello? Nice time and
all, but I think you forgot
something kind of important.
Something important, like
protection. You know, birth
control. You can get pregnant
the first time, remember?
Or maybe that’s what you want?
Why on earth would I want
to get pregnant? Maybe as
a way to keep Bryce attached
to you? A way to make sure
you won’t be alone after all.
But that might make him
think you trapped him? Might
drive him away? Nah. He’s
the type to stay. Even without
him, you wouldn’t be alone.
THAT LITTLE VOICE
Is crazy. I don’t want to get pregnant.
(I don’t want to get pregnant, do I?)
A baby would change my life forever.
(Like my life is so perfect right now?)
I’d have to quit school. Be a dropout.
(You could finish up via the Web.)
I’d get fat. Have morning sickness.
(There are ways around those things.)
Grandfather would disown me.
(Grandfather doesn’t own me now.)
Aunt Cora would be disappointed.
