"I can't, Rosanna. I can't tell Aaron about me and Dusty, I just can't" Lucy protested. Rosanna tried to reason with Lucy that it was the best thing to do. For everyone's sake. However, Lucy did not want Aaron ever finding out that she had sex with Dusty not once but two times.
"Look Lucy it will all be for the best if you just come clean about the entire thing, dishonesty won't help anyone." Rosanna explained. Lucy however did not want to listen. She was adamant on getting the abortion and acting as if nothing occurred. She wanted to put it all behind her.
Lucy knew how Rosanna would take the idea of an abortion so she really did not want to say anything, she however knew she must. "I'm having an abortion; I'm going to make this all go away."
Rosanna heard Lucy say the word, but could not believe she had. "Lucy you would kill your own child."
"A child I don't want, a child that will cause so much heartache if it's born."
"No, it won't. A child is a blessing. Lucy whatever you do not terminate your pregnancy, we will work it all out." Rosanna pleaded with Lucy.
"How are we going to explain the fact that I'm pregnant? Aaron will know it is not his. Daddy will become suspicious, how am I going to explain to my father that I had sex with Dusty Donovan? We all know how Daddy feels about Aaron getting me pregnant, imagine how he will react if he found out that Dusty actually did?" Lucy pleaded with Rosanna to let her do what she had to do.
"Abortion though? Lucy" Rosanna hated the word. Ever since she had her hysterectomy, she knew what a blessing each child was. For Lucy to even mention getting one-made Rosanna sick to her stomach. "Lucy I know you don't want a child and I understand that. But Lucy you have to know that a child is a blessing."
Lucy listened to Rosanna and something clicked in her as if she all the sudden remembered that Rosanna could never have a child of her own. "Rosanna..." She stopped short she did not know what words she could say that would justify what she wanted. "I never thought...I'm sorry." She apologized as she lowered her head.
Rosanna wrapped an arm around her and told her it was all right. "Lucy I know you're scared. I am sure every woman is scared to be pregnant, but aren't you willing to go through the journey. Wouldn't you like to see the beautiful child you created?"
"The child I created with Dusty?" Lucy laughed. She laughed at the thought that her first child would not be with the boy she thought she married but with the man she so loathed at one time.
"A child whether it's created out of love or lust, is still a blessing and should be born. It should be giving a chance." Rosanna advised. Lucy took a deep breath and knew what she had to do. She had to keep this child even if it meant hurting everyone she loved. She had to give this child a chance to live.
"You're right. This child deserves a chance." Lucy said as she hugged Rosanna got up to leave.
"Where you going? Rosanna wondered"To tell Dusty I'm not aborting the baby, and to tell Aaron I'm pregnant with Dusty's child, it's not going to be easy, but I think I can get him to understand. Thank you Rosanna for being so supportive and understanding and making me realize that this baby even if it was conceived in a not so conventional way. Is still worth being born." Lucy hugged her again and then left.

Lucy entered Metro to find Dusty flirting with one of the many woman patrons that flaunt themselves at him. She suddenly felt jealous. She wanted him to be flirting with her. She wanted him to look at her the way he was looking at the broad.
She walked over to him and cleared her throat. "Ahem"
Dusty looked up to see Lucy standing in front of him. "What are you doing here Princess, come here to gloat."
"I need to speak to you." Lucy said, the woman Dusty was flirting with took it as a cue to leave she gave Lucy a snide look as she got up. Lucy however just ignored her
Dusty led her back to his office. Once inside he shut the door. Lucy played with the pencils in the pencil holder that sat on the corner of his desk.
"So what's up?" Dusty asked.
"I'm not having the abortion." Lucy explained."You're not. What made you change your mind?" He wondered what made Lucy all the sudden have a change of heart.
"Rosanna made me realize that even though this baby wasn't conceived in the right way it is still a blessing and it should be welcomed into this world as all other babies should be." Lucy explained to him what Rosanna had told her.
Dusty grabbed a glass and some scotch he had hidden in his desk. He poured a drink as she was about to take a drink he asked. "Are gonna tell Aaron?"
"Yeah, I'm on my way over to his place right now. I'm going to explain everything that happened."
"You want me to come with you?" Asked Dusty.
Lucy shook her head. "No I have to do this on my own."
Lucy was about to leave when Dusty stopped her. He did something she was not expecting. He kissed her. "Good luck."
When he pulled back, Lucy leaned in as if she wanted to savor it. She then did something she was not expecting she kissed him back. "I can't get enough of you; I can never get enough of you. I know what we are doing is wrong, but I can't help myself." Lucy smiled into a kiss as she began to unbuckle his belt.
Dusty began talking, but Lucy cut him off.
"Aaron can wait, I want this now." Lucy began to kiss down his neck and torso. She removed his shirt as he removed hers. Soon they were undressed and moving with each other on top of his desk.
Dusty finished up and collapsed onto the desk chair.
Lucy however whimpered at the sudden loss of contact, Dusty grabbed her sat her in his lap where she began to kiss him again. They continued to make out, Lucy and Dusty soon began moving in harmony again.
Lucy collapsed onto to Dusty and Laughed, "We really need to stop doing this."
"Good luck, with Aaron." He said as she left.Tbc... How will Aaron handle the news?
Just to let you all know I am not against abortion, I am just against killing any Lusty baby.
