Number 17:
The awkward moment when… Eve realises she is pregnant.
Two pink lines appear on the pregnancy test.
This isn't good.
I am dating a vampire… I don't think that I am going to a) be able to hide the fact that I am pregnant or b) pretend that it is his. Not the best idea, to cheat on a vampire with a human; if you're gonna cheat in Morganville, at least do it with someone who can't procreate!
I shake slightly as I consider the possible fathers. There's Bill, the dude who works in the video shop, or there's Johnny, the delivery driver for the coffee shop… I suppose it could be Don but that was over ages ago…
There is only one other option, the most likely. Shane Collins.
Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that we had a quick affair the other week, nothing serious, when Claire was off with Myrnin and Michael took a hike to the Council Building… but I never thought.
"Eve, you alright?" Shane asks me as he knocks on the bathroom door, wondering why I'm taking so long when I said I would be three mins.
I push open the door and show him the positive test, making his eyes go wide.
"You're pregnant?" Shane whispers, but Michael walks out of his room at that time and hears the words that I am pregnant. He looks at me to make sure I'm not Claire before his brow furrows.
"You're pregnant?" he repeats, heartbreak evident in his tone and furthered in his face when I nod.
Awkward.
Whatcha think?
Next one is up tomorrow – involves hair dye!
