Jen's POV
"Excuse me?" I say
"Lets make a kid and thats it"
I cant believe Harry said that
"We love each other, we're responsible, we trust each other, we earn good money and the most important there's not physical attraction between us" he adds
"Oh great. We will cheat on the system" I said walking toward the elevator
"We'll have 50% responsibilities for the kid and we'll avoid the divorcing nightmare" he says
He has a point.
"You dont have time for wasting babydoll. It takes one year to give a birth and come back in shape. Then you continue looking for your dream guy" Harry says and open the elevator door for me
I click for the 3rd floor and then he does the same for the 9th.
"I cant understand if you're kidding or not" I say
Harry's POV
We separate and go home. I put the espresso machine in the kitchen and grab a beer. I go in the living room to watch TV.
After an hour I call Jennifer. Im sure she's still awake.
"Say babydoll"
"What if its not a joke?" I ask
"What?"
"Having a baby"
"Really?" he says unsure
"Yep. Really"
"Lets first say all the pluses and all the minuses"
"What are we going to say to our future kid?" she asks
"The casual case. We've fucked once and you get pregnant. You've kept the baby because you're old" I say
"Thank you, but no" she cuts me
"Then.. I didnt have chance. We shared the responsibilities and stay friends" I suggest
"It sounds like Im the bad one" she whines
"Then we say that we wanted a kid but not relationship. We still stay friends" I say
"It's better now"
Jen's POV
The next morning we go jogging in the park. We are still talking about the plan.
"What if I fall in love while Im pregnant?" I ask
"You'll say that you dont know who is the father"
"It sounds like Im a whore"
"Alright then. We have slept once and you want the baby. The body is yours" Harry looked at me
"Nah. Forget it. No men until the labor" I say and continue jogging
Harry's POV
In the evening I go to Jen's apartment.
I pour whiskey as she's sitting on the counter.
"Promise?" I say and give her the glass
"Promise!" she replies
"Promise that you would be responsible to this kid half of the time" she says before she drinks it
"I promise. Half and more of the time!"
"Cheers!" she touched my glass with hers and we drank it
"That's good!"she says
I take the pizza box and open it
"Shit! What are we going to say to our friends?" she asks
"Dont worry! Im very convincing" I comfort her with a smile
