Whatever it was, this was going to be good.

“I’m probably overthinking this. I mean, I could be wrong, but if I’m not, I’m screwed. I mean, it’s got to be a mistake.”

“Bailey, calm down and just tell me what I need to fix before King comes in here and demands I tell him what you are keeping from him.”

“Oh, God!” she gasped frantically, rushing over to me. Sitting next to me, she grabbed my hands and pleaded, “You can’t tell him. Not until I know I fucked up.”

“Fucked up what? Woman, you haven’t said shit yet.”

“Promise me you won’t laugh.”

“Nope,” I grinned, shaking my head. “Per the best friend code, I am allowed to laugh when you fuck up and you’re not allowed to get mad. So, spill it, bestie. What did you do?”

Growling, Bailey narrowed her eyes at me before she sighed and whispered, “I think I allowed King to get me pregnant.”

There comes a time in every man’s life where life flashes before our eyes, giving us a rare glimpse of what’s coming our way. In that second, I witnessed what life had in store for me, and it wasn’t pretty. I saw dark days ahead. Very dark days with blood and death. I saw brothers cowering in fear, running from the volatile monster that was about to befall us. I saw children crying. Fire raining down from the heavens as a dark ghoulish creature roamed the earth. Even King trembled in fear as the destructive Bailey wreaked havoc, obliterating everything and everyone around her.

“Say something!” Bailey shouted, ripping me from the nightmare engulfing me.

Gulping, I carefully asked, “How sure are you?”

“I’m not. That’s why I’m asking you.”

“Why are you asking me this shit?!” I shouted, jumping to my feet. “I’ve never been pregnant before, woman.”

“I’m sure more than one woman you’ve been with has been in this position. So, what do I do?”

“How the hell should I know!? Go ask them!” I yelled back. “Geez, Bails. I don’t know what to do.”

“Well, you better figure it out, because I can’t do this by myself.”

“Oh, you’ve done a fine job already. Don’t see what more I can do!”

“Come on, Scribe. Help me out here. It’s got to be a mistake, right? I mean, I’m on the pill.”

My head snapped to hers.

OH FUCK!

No. Noo. NOOOO!

Running from my room, I barged into Bailey and King’s, heading fast for their bathroom, with Bailey hot on my heels.

Opening and closing drawers, I shouted, “Where are they?!”

“What?”

“Your pills!”

Bailey pushed me out of the way, opening a drawer before reaching for her birth control pills. Handing them to me, I opened them and sighed. “Oh, thank fuck.”

“Scribe, why do you have my woman’s birth control pills in your hand?”

Both Bailey and I quickly turned to find King standing in the bathroom doorway, arms crossed over his massive chest as he glared at the both of us.

Gulping, I quickly handed Bailey her pills back.

“It’s not what it looks like. I swear!”
