One Night Only

Chapter 2- Stepping Up {Edited}

"Damn! You just got there and you're fucking your boss!" Kyle laughed at his friend. "Bro, I was just kidding about tapping that ass, but you took it literally! You are the man!"

Sean downed his third beer of the night and asked for another one from the bartender. "I'm not fucking her Kyle," Sean corrected. "It was a one time thing, so-"

"So you wouldn't do it again?" Kyle pressed. "Because I would. Shit, that Keira Davis is something. I must have seen her on the cover of Essence Magazine. Man! I still have the issue if you want to see it. Body bang like BAM! She talks about her background, relationships and shit like that."

Sean and Daniel gave him an odd look. "What? I like to read," Kyle said defensively.

Daniel shook his head at him. "Forget about him Sean. Something ain't right up here when it comes to him," he pointed to his head. "A few screws are missing up there."

Kyle laugh. "Not as many screws Sean is going to do-"

"Not right now Kyle," Daniel said. "So why did you call us? Other than that," he asked Sean.

Sean rubbed his hand over his face. "I think she's pregnant," he stated.

"You're fucked," Kyle cursed. "Bitch gone want that child support and you don't even know if it's yours. Maury!"

"Dude! You need to respect women!" Daniel barked.

"I do," he winked.

"Whatever, so what are you planning on doing?" Daniel asked.

Sean shrugged and took a sip of his beer. He truthfully didn't know what to do. One minute he wanted to run for the hills and forget about everything and the next he wanted to talk to her and discuss the next step. He wasn't even sure if she was pregnant, but right now, the thought of her pregnant with his seed made him feel proud. One thing he was sure about, was that he refused to have the child out of wedlock. Sean definitely didn't want the baby growing up with two unmarried parents. He was taught and brought up when two parents got married, had children, loved, protected and provided for the child together. Not separately.

Even though him and Keira did it backwards they had plenty of time to elope. Maybe not elope because his mother and sisters would kill him. Sean threw back the last sip of his beer and stood up.

"Hell, I don't know," he dug in his pockets and threw enough bills on the bar."But one thing I do know, is I'm going to be there for my child."

Without saying bye to his friends, Sean walked out of the bar and to his car.

At the end of the next day, Sean took powerful strides to Keira's office. He bypassed everyone he came in contact with but manage to give them small smiles and a couple of waves. When he got to the door, he didn't bother to knock. He barged through the door, closing and locking it behind him. With wide eyes filled with surprise and confusion, Keira looked at him from behind her desk while on the phone. She signaled him to give her a minute and to sit down. He went against it and walked to the small picture frames that where scattered on her wall of several people.

"I understand that Cole, but remember that I don't need Iggy Azalea on the cover," she said. "I got back ups left and right. Nicki Minaj, Trina is doing a comeback. You know men love both women so it's a win for everyone."

Silence filled the air as Sean waited for Keira to acknowledge him. "Ok, how about this. Carl call me when you and Iggy have decided what to do. All I can give you is twenty-four hours. Ok? Alright," she ended her call, got up, and walked around her desk.
