I log out of The Aeternus Universe since I have around 10 hours until an Aegis representative comes by. The gaming pod slowly opens, and the air-conditioned coolness hits my body. I step out and stretch my body. I look towards the clock in my room, and it's nighttime. I head into my bathroom and get cleaned up. The last time I had a shower was a few days ago. I take my time and make sure I get the grime and sweat off. Once finished, I step out and take a towel into my bedroom and sit on my chair as I dry.
As I sit here, multiple things run through my head. The most important being Jess. All the people we know will shun our parents and us if they found out. Our parents themselves will this our child an abomination. I have to talk to her about what to do, cause the simplest thing would be to keep this situation a secret from everyone. Raise the child in peace and away from the judgemental words and gazes of the world. "I need to talk to her..." I whisper this single sentence to myself. Saying something can convince you more seriously than thinking it.
I finish drying off, and I get dressed in sweatpants. I'm not going to wear a shirt. I leave my bedroom, and I walk towards the living room. I look towards the couch and see Jess. The couch is where we did... I shake my head and focus. Jess hears my footsteps and turns to look. Once our eyes make contact, she blushes and looks to the side. I round the couch and sit next to her. "We need to talk about what we are going to do... I don't want to get rid of the baby... Other people are what the problem will be..." She looks at me, nodding her head in agreement.
I can tell how scared she is, and to try and comfort her, I reach one arm out and wrap it around her shoulders. I bring her into a half hug, and I lean us back into the couch, relaxing. "Everyone is going to think we're freaks... Think our baby is a freak..." She whispers her worries, and I rub my hand up and down her shoulder. She leans her head into my peck and releases a stressed sigh. "I'm sorry that I didn't let you... You know..." I chuckle to myself. It's more my fault than hers. I should've tried harder to pull out. Not give up after one try.
I lay my head on top of hers and close my eyes. "It's my fault... I should have done better. I got caught up in all the pleasure... It was my first time, and I wasn't expecting something so... Good." We both carry the blame for this happening, and that isn't going to change what's already happened. "I think the best course of action is to keep what's happened a secret. Telling people will only bring us problems... We'll have the baby, raise it, and make sure nobody ever knows." She leans into me a little more, and I hear tiny sniffles coming from her.
I watch her hand come up to her face to wipe the tears away. "How are we going to raise a baby... I'm only 22, and your only 20... I'm growing to love the idea of my baby, but how do we even start..." I raise my hand and run my fingers through her hair and try to relax her. She is under a lot more stress than I am. She is the one who's pregnant after all. She probably has a million thoughts going through her head. All of them are how things can go bad, and, understandably, she is scared. Anyone would be in our situation.
I don't know how to ease her heart and make her not as stressed. I will look on one bright side. "Look at it this way. We won't have to worry about money cause I'm rich. That's one of the hardest things about raising a child. We won't have the biggest obstacle, and that should be something to look forward to." I hear her let out a little laugh at my logic. She lifts her head up and looks into my eyes. A bond has been created between us thanks to her race, and nothing will change that now. She moves her head closer to mine and slowly closes her eyes. I copy her and I close my eyes.
