Chapter 8

Kate and Elliot joined the new lovebirds for breakfast. Kate kissed the top of her head. "You look different, we need to talk." Ana agreed they needed to talk. Elliot kissed Kate, "I'm off to work and taking Chris." Elliot just finished his junior year majoring in civil engineering. He, like Christian had a plan for his trust fund and wasn't afraid of work.

In high school Elliot went through the tech center and earned certificates in electrical work and plumbing. He was going to have his own company Grey Building. He had been working since high school with landscaping, repair work, and any odd jobs. Christian helped him in many ways, with the ideas to build his company, plus he didn't mind getting his hands dirty either.

Christian kissed Ana, "Will you come to dinner tonight at my house?" Ana promised she would. The boys left and Kate just stared at Ana. "How was it? Are you sore?" Ana smiled, "A little, but it was amazing. I wanted more, but Christian said no." Kate stood up and started the dishes, "I like him. He's good for you." Kate watched her friend, "What's going on in that head of yours." Ana needed to tell her, "I've got a lot to learn. I'm scared that I can't keep him happy. I also need birth control."

Kate smiled, "Just be honest with him Ana. You two started that way, so keep it up. I can go with you and you can see my doctor. She's nice, her name is Dr. Greene." Ana helped with the cleaning, "Ok, thanks Kate." Kate called Dr. Greene's office while Ana completed some school work. She wasn't taking a break, with her double major online classes were the way to go. "Thanks so much." Kate hung up the phone, "Someone canceled and you have an appointment at 3:00."

Kate laid around and Ana worked. Around 2:15 they headed to the appointment. "Kate, when do you start at your father's job?" Kate's dad was the owner of Kavanagh Media and Kate worked there every summer. Her father told her it would look great on her résumé. "Next week, but only Monday through Thursday." Ana felt her phone buzz and she saw a text, it was Christian. "I miss you." Ana smiled, "I miss you too. I'm on my way to get birth control. I want round 2."

They pulled up and her phone rang, "Ana, you don't have to do that. We can be careful." Christian was so mature for 18, "I want to Christian. I don't trust myself with you sometimes. I also don't want a baby." Ana told him she would see him at dinner. "Wait Ana, is that you never want a baby?" Ana rolled her eyes, "No Christian, I want a little boy that looks just like you." Christian laughed, "Good, because I want twin girls that look just like you. See you later."

Kate opened her mouth and acted like she was throwing up. "Shut up Kate!" Ana loved teasing Kate, "Oh Elliot, put your thumb…" Kate screamed and covered Ana's mouth. "Ok Miss Know it all, I can't wait to see you a couple months down the road. They are brothers." Kate opened the door laughing and Ana was terrified, "Wait Kate! No one's thumb should be there."

Ana sat on the table naked from the waist down. "Kate, what is she going to do?" Kate giggled, "Look down there, make sure everything is fine. Then give you the pill or a shot in your the butt." Ana started squirming and Kate laughed, "Don't be a baby."

Dr. Greene came in, "Hi Ana! I'm Dr. Greene." She looked at Kate on the chair, "Hey Kate!" After making sure it was ok to continue with Kate there, she asked a series of questions and did a quick examination. "Ok, well your blood work looks good and you're not pregnant. Would you like the pill or shot?"

Ana didn't like shots, "I think the pill is better." Kate interrupted, "Ana, cut it out and get the shot. The pill is a pain." Dr. Greene smiled, "Ana, it's totally your decision." She looked at the pamphlets and pros and cons. "Ok, I'll get the shot." Dr. Greene gave her a shot in the butt. "Ok in a week to 10 days you should be good. Keep up with your cycle as it could increase or decrease, it depends on your body. I'll see you in 3 months."

Kate and Ana headed to the Grey's for dinner. "Kate, my butt is sore. I hate shots." Kate poked out her bottom lip, "I'm sorry, but you'll thank me later, when you're not knocked up from forgetting the pill."
