AKA What happened after chapter 3

I don't know if this is possible but ... it's just a story


Woody hadn't known it was so important to her. Until now.

She wouldn't let him go the whole time.

SIX MONTH EARLIER

He had called her. And she invited him over.

Woody: How … How are you?

Jordan: Fine … The baby's fine, too. … Just…

Woody: (concerned) What?

Jordan: …

Woody: Jordan?

Jordan: It … It doesn't fit.

Woody: Huh? What?

Jordan: The timeline. The last time I … and what my doctor says about …. I should be about three weeks further along.

Woody: You sure?

Jordan: Of course. I counted the weeks. Often.

FLASHBACK

They were watching a movie in his place when the storm had come up. So he had offered her to stay. He had given her a clean t-shirt and shorts and let her take the bed. He himself took the sofa. So far, so good. But the storm got worse. At some time in the night thunder and lightning joined the snowstorm. He hadn't known Jordan was afraid of thunder. But she was. She was so scared, she creped under his blanket to find comfort in his arms. And he held her close all night trying to ignore the fact that the too big shorts had slipped down and she wasn't wearing any underwear. He hadn't been very successful.

Jordan: No, we didn't do anything. … But … (in professional tone) There doesn't have to be a penetration for it to happen, you know.

Woody: Oh … (looks down)

Jordan: Woody? Is it possible?

Woody: … (after long pause) sorry.

Jordan: (nots)

They sat in silence for a while to let it sink in.
