“Brock will tell you when he’s ready.”
“I’m not so sure about that. I’m not so sure that Brock and I…”
“You heard Donny. Brock found his soft spot.”
“I know. But last night… He and I… Well, let’s just say it wasn’t pretty.”
“What happened?”
“You know what happened. I might be pregnant. And I swear to God, I didnotneglect to tell him about the condom on purpose.”
“I believe you, Ror. I know you didn’t.”
“But then he got drunk, and I went over. I took care of him. But before that…”
“What?”
I close my eyes, for some reason thinking it won’t be as bad if I can’t see my sister when I say it. “Before that, I almost left with Dragon.”
“Rory…”
I open my eyes. Callie’s own eyes are wide, her jaw dropped.
“I saidalmost, Cal. I didn’t do it. But I was so upset, and if Brock hadn’t called me…”
“Thank God he did.”
“Yeah, but then this morning, I got a phone call from the counselor I talked to at the family-planning place in Grand Junction.”
“Oh? Surely you’re not still thinking about—”
“No. I mean, I might be pregnant, so I’m not shopping for sperm. She called to apologize because we kind of left things on a sour note. But it was my fault, not hers, so I apologized to her. And then…she asked me out.”
“Okay…”
“I considered it, Callie. I even told her I was interested, except that I was seeing someone else and had to talk to him first.”
“And…areyou interested?”
I sigh. “No. I mean she’s perfectly lovely, and I am attracted to her. And believe it or not, I’m also attracted to Dragon.”
“Really? Dragon?”
“You don’t think he has something? That darkness?”
“Oh, yeah, he’s good-looking. Totally. But there’s just something not quite right there.”
“Well… I wasn’t really looking past his handsomeness last night…”
“I see.”
“And this woman from the sperm bank, she’s also gorgeous. And bisexual, which is a good thing. She would understand me.”
“But you just said you’re not really interested.”
“I’m not, Callie. And damn it, I should be.”
“Don’t tell me you’re really falling for Brock.”
