For one night of my life, I dared to do
something reckless.
My birthday. A bar. Karaoke. And a man so hot he
could melt the sun.
Sparks flew. Lust took over. For one night of my
life, I felt alive.
Then I was back to my “boring” life.
Career-driven. Goal-oriented. Always planning ahead.
But nothing could have prepared me for the
positive pregnancy test. We weren’t that reckless.
There goes my “boring” life. And what happens
when I tell the father?
When a firm hand clamped my shoulder, I realized Nate had plopped
down on the stool beside me. “What the hell are you doing here? Why
aren’t you home in your fortress, avoiding people who like having fun?”
“Shut it. I needed a drink.”
“In here?” he asked, an amused smirk on his face. “You despise this place when there’s a game on.”
“Yeah, well, temporary insanity.”
“So, what’s going on with you?”
“Isn’t that a loaded question?” I quipped without thinking.
“You okay?” he quickly asked.
“Long story.”
At
that moment, Brad came back, slinging a dishtowel over his shoulder.
Typically, the females in the vicinity began giggling and whispering at
seeing identical triplets in one location. Ignoring it, Brad said, “Did
you tell him?”
“Not yet.”
“Tell me what?”
I held Nate’s gaze, but the words caught in my throat.
Brad
took my silence as an opportunity to blurt out, “We’re going to be
uncles.” Nate’s expression mirrored Brad’s from when I told him, and it
had nothing to do with our likenesses. “Jade is pregnant.”
“Say what?” Nate said. When Nate then said, “Who the fuck is Jade?” Brad lost his shit.
“Someone I met.”
“How did you meet?”
The grin on Brad’s face caused a scowl on mine. “Jade is the beauty I
rigged him to meet at my bar on Kismet Karaoke Night. He needed to get
laid, dude.”
“So, this is actually your fault?” Nate
accused with an eye roll and sigh before turning back to me. “And you
slept with her that night?”
“Yeah,” I said like a child
being scolded. Predictably, my brother, always the counselor, listened
intently as I explained the chain of events that led to where Jade and I
were now. Once done, his silence continued to stretch. “Say something,”
I prodded.
“How well do you know this woman?” The
question should have irritated me, but I couldn’t blame him for playing
devil’s advocate.
“Well enough,” I said, knowing it was a weak explanation.
“Great
answer,” he grumbled, shaking his head. “Shit, I leave you two for a
few weeks and all hell breaks loose. I’d expect this from him,” he
accused, thrusting a thumb at Brad. “Not from you.”
“Fuck off.” Brad flipped him the bird. “Hey, I have a stupid question,” he said. “Did you use condoms?”
“Of course, I did.”
“Gold Shields?”
“Yeah. What’s your point?”
“Dude, there was a massive recall on them. It was all over the news.”
My gaze flicked to Nate. “Is he shitting me?”
“Afraid not. You didn’t know?”
“What the fuck? Cars get recalled, not fucking condoms. Don’t they realize they’re playing with people’s lives?”
“Yeah. Thus, the recall,” Brad offered with a chuckle. “Obviously, you don’t have sex enough to keep on top of these things.”
“Fuck.” I didn’t know which was more unbelievable—a recall on condoms or the fact that Brad was right.
