"Talk about what? What are you doing here? How did you even find out where I live?!"
"I really don't want to stand outside and do this. Can I come in? Please?"
"Fine. I still want to know how the hell you found out where I live." Lisette mumbled, stepping back and holding the door open so he could walk in.
"Logan or Aleister didn't tell me if that's what you're worried about. Is there anything you would like to tell me?"
She shook her head and shut the door, turning to look up at him in confusion. "You're the one who showed up here saying that we need to talk and now you're asking me if there's anything I need to tell you? What the hell are you on?"
"Do you really want to play the clueless card Lisette?" He asked and she glared at him.
"I'm not playing anything! I have no fucking clue what you're doing here or what the hell you're talking about!"
"I'm talking about the fact that you're pregnant with my child!" Chris shouted and Lisette stared at him in shock.
"I have no clue what you're talking about!"
"Oh don't give me that bullshit! I saw the appointment reminder tonight on Logan's calendar stuck to her refrigerator!"
"Ok, yeah...I'm pregnant but nobody said anything about it being yours!" Lisette yelled, immediately regretting it after the look that crossed his face.
"I'm sorry, I just assumed..."
Lisette sighed and shook her head. "No, I'm the one who's sorry Chris. You're right...the baby is yours."
Chris took a deep breath and fell on the couch, running his hands over his face. "Were you even going to tell me?"
"Honestly? I don't know. I've been thinking about it since I found out but I was in shock so bad that I couldn't even process it myself, let alone even think about telling you."
"We have to get married." Chris stated, looking at her and Lisette's jaw dropped.
"What did you just say?"
"You heard me Lisette. You're pregnant with my child and I'm not about to let my baby grow up without me."
Lisette smiled and shook her head. "I get that Chris, I do and I respect the hell out of you for it but I'm not about to marry you just because of this baby. I don't even know you!"
"You'll get to know me once we're married."
"Oh my God Chris, no. I'm not marrying you so just drop it right now. I get you want to be in the baby's life and I wouldn't ever dream of stopping you but we don't have to get married for that to happen. Like I said, I don't even know you."
"So take a chance and get to know me. Let's do this thing right...sure it's a little backwards, there's no denying that but let me take you out on a date so we can get to know each other." Chris suggested and Lisette shook her head. "Why not?"
"You're a really nice guy don't get me wrong but...I don't date nice guys."
"What the hell do you mean by that?" He asked, looking at her in confusion. "I like bad boys...Dominant men and I can just tell that you don't have a Dominant bone in your body."
"So what if I don't? How far has dating men like that gotten you?" Chris questioned and Lisette rolled her eyes.
"You sound just like Logan." She mumbled, sighing. "Alright Chris...one date, just one. That way you can see that it's never going to work between us and we can figure out another way to work out you being in the baby's life."
"You won't regret it, I promise."

Logan woke up the next morning and checked the time on her phone. Seeing had a voicemail, she quickly dialed the number to see who had called.
"Mrs. Black this is Tina from Dr. Barstow's office. Dr. Barstow would like to see you in the office today at 11:30 regarding the results of your test."
Logan's eyes widened and she hung up the phone, jumping out of bed to get ready for the appointment which was now thirty minutes away.
Logan was nervous, there was no denying that and when the doctor walked in the room, her heart began to race.
"Good morning Mrs. Black. How are you today?"
"Morning Dr. Barstow. I'm pretty nervous to be honest with you." Logan admitted, shaking her hand and she laughed.
"Understandable. Well, I won't keep you in suspense any longer. You are indeed pregnant."
Logan took a deep breath and let it out slowly. "Wow. I have to say it's the news I was hoping for but it's still a shock."
"It can be, yes. How have you been feeling?"
"Pretty good actually. A little tired on occasion and I've had morning sickness a couple of times but nothing too bad yet." Logan replied and the doctor smiled.
"Excellent. Well, congratulations Mrs. Black. If you don't have any questions, we're done here. You just need to stop up front and make your next appointment."
"No questions doctor, thank you." Logan waited for the doctor to leave the room before getting dressed and walking out of the exam room.
