My phone is ringing.
I hear it, but I don't move.
I'm so warm and cozy.
I shift a little in bed.
"Shane." I mumble, reaching out to hit his chest.
He's not there.
What the fuck?
I sigh.
The sun isn't even peeking up through the curtains yet.
I'll just go back to sleep.
I shift.
My phone stops ringing, and then it starts ringing again.
I moan, reaching over, I rip it off the plug, lazily pressing answer.
"Hello?" I mumble.
"Good morning baby." Shane says softly.
I look at the clock. It's 4:22AM.
We just went to sleep at one.
"Where are you?" I whine.
"I'm at CVS." He says.
"It's early." I mumble.
"Yes it is." He says softly. "But we have a plane to catch in three hours."
Oh.
Oh yeah.
"Let's bail." I mumble.
"We can't." he sighs. "I'm calling you to make sure you're awake." He says. "And to ask you if you're sore." He says.
"Should I be?"
"I don't know." He says. "I checked online and I asked a worker here and she said that when she lost her virginity, she was sore."
"You asked a girl?" I ask.
"Yes. Was that wrong?"
I hesitate.
He was talking about me.
"No."
"Okay. Well she...and Google, said that you might be sore, that you might need some ibuprofen. Are you sore?"
"Um..." I shift. "I don't know."
I sit up, and then I get out of the bed.
Yes. It hurts.
"Yeah."
"Okay. I'll get you medicine. Also, I realized when I woke up that I didn't pull out."
Oh.
"Oh." I say.
We're both quiet.
"I'm going to get the morning after pill." He says. "It'll be okay."
"I'm not ready to be a parent." I say.
"I know, neither am I. It's okay, okay?"
"Okay."
"Alright. You get dressed. I'm coming home with breakfast. What do you want from McDonalds?"
I hesitate.
"I'll eat something here."
"Right, you don't eat McDonald's." he says. "What do you eat?"
I really want a bowl of fruit.
