"Nothing more." And what have you heard, Sean?" she asked, almost playfully.I took a deep breath. The next couple of minutes would have a very real im...act on the rest of my life. "Are you pregnant, Molly?"There was a long pause. At the time, it felt like it was about an hour before she said anything, but it was probably only a few seconds."What would you say if I told you I was, Sean? Would you be happy? Or would it upset you?"I felt like my head was going to explode. "Is it mine?" I croaked.I. “Yes. She and I had lunch with her mother.

To top it off, my ex-boyfriend was being overly emotional about the whole situation, so sex with the ex was out of the question. And man, I was horny. More than once I wished I wasn't too shy to just go out, pick up a guy, take him home and discard him the next morning. Underneath the slightly arrogant exterior I'm a bit of a softie I'm afraid. Needless to say I was looking forward to my first chance to relax in quite some time: Camille, my best.
