Hazel tilted her head.

Yeah, I know, love. Fuck it. Fuck the house. We’re not here to talk about the house.

“How about a drink, Atlas?”

“Yeah,” I said. “I can definitely use a drink.”

Hazel led the path to the kitchen.

A house with simple, defined rooms.

I was used to apartments and condos in cities.

Usually fancy and expensive ones.

This house had a very relaxed,homeyfeel.

Hazel opened the fridge door and balanced two bottles of water in one hand.

“Water?” I asked.

“You’re driving,” she said as she tossed me one of the bottles. “Not sure if you should have even driven here.”

“I’m fine, Hazel,” I said. “I wasn’t drinking that much to begin with. Then the sudden rush of shock absorbed the whiskey like a sponge.”

“Right,” she said. “I’m sure that’s exactly how it works.”

I nodded. “So, want to talk about the house? My drinking? The water? Anything more important to talk about?”

“I’m not sure what else there is to say, Atlas. I don’t know how to approach this. This has never happened to me before.”

“There’s something I didn’t know about you.”

“What?”

“I didn’t know this is the first time you’re pregnant. Congrats.”

“Congrats… wow.”

“What do I do here, love?” I asked. “To be fair it’s not like we really know much about each other. We were forced to go on a date, right?”

“But we weren’t forced to fuck.”

“Fair enough. But you’ve never fucked someone just for the sake of it?”

“The sake of it…?”

Now I got the chance to see what a pissed off Hazel looked like.

Her right nostril flared bigger than her left.

Her left eyebrow lifted high up in the air.

Her jaw moved a little.

She was actually kind of sexy when she was angry.

“Did you do all of that out of pity?”
