I love pranks and jokes, but sometimes you get scared and it isn't funny, it's just plain terrifying. Our 4th big fight evolved from a scare.

I rolled out of bed and quickly slipped on one of Dylan's t-shirt to cover my nude body. I smiled, remembering last night. I hop in the shower. When I get out, I take a pregnancy test, like I always do after we fuck. I look at the test, expecting a little blue line, but instead see a pink plus sign. I don't register it so I'm about to throw the test away, but I do a double take. Fuck.
XXXXXXXX
"Pregnant?" Dylan says slowly. I nod.
"Baby, that's great!" He exclaims.
"What?!" I yell. "No it's not! I want a life! A career! Not a fucking baby! I don't know if I'll ever want a baby!" I yell. He calms me down then suggests I take a few more tests to be sure. I take 6 more and they all come out negative. I'm not pregnant. Thank the mother fucking lord.
"Never?" Dylan asks, looking deflated.
"Huh?" I say, smiling because I'M NOT PREGNANT!
"You'll never want kids?" He asks. Woah.
"Dyl, that's a huge step. We aren't even married. I don't know if I ever want to be married, either. I'm trying to go slow because I don't wanna run again, please help me." I beg.
"Never?" He asks, again.
"I don't know, maybe. It was never part of my plan. But if I did marry anyone or have anyone's kids, it would only be you." I tell him, honestly.
"I want to get married. And I want kids!" He replies. He's always been the nice guy. The one girls parents want them to date.
"Can we talk about this later?" I sigh.
"No. I want to know if we have a future! If we don't, what are we even doing here?" He says. I bite my lip.
"What are you saying...?" I say slowly.
"I'm saying if there's no future for us, maybe we shouldn't be together." He replies. I let out a shaky breath.
"Yeah, maybe you're right." I say, ice cold. I'm furious. I storm out of the apartment, making sure to slam the door. I go to the pond. Rocks hit water, tears hit cheeks.
