Reid has always been truthful to a fault and maybe this is the wrong time to admit his real feelings. “I don’t know, Val. You’re pretty and you’re a really cool girl but to be honest, I can’t even remember hooking up with you.”
Her eyes flash with fury and the scorn in her tone is more than clear. “Oh wow. How charming. Am I such a lousy fuck that I’m not even worth remembering?”
Reid sighs, suddenly looking tired. “Val, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to offend you, I promise. Just please give me and Kaya the chance to be the ones to tell our parents. I didn’t mean to hurt you, I was just really drunk every time I passed out in your room. I don’t even remember getting there—"
Valeria’s words sound oddly reassuring but somehow they have the opposite effect. “Oh, don’t worry. I have no intention of telling your father. Getting you cut off wouldn’t do me any good.”
“You? What have you got to do with me getting cut off?” Reid asks, growing more perplexed by the minute.
“Ah, Reid,” she chides, “I thought you were way more shrewd. So you don’t remember fucking me? Do you remember not bothering with a condom? Of course I don’t want you to get cut off. I’m pregnant with your baby!”
The light and deafening noise of thunder fill the room. I find it hard to breathe as I look at Valeria’s victorious smile as she looks at me and Reid touching her flat stomach protectively.
