34 - ᴘʀɪᴠᴀᴄʏ

We went downstairs and tried to act as if nothing was going on. But we were nervous, tense and stressed out as fuck.

Ricky, Jaime, Chris and Ryan were in the kitchen taking their breakfast.

Vinny and I were in the living room, sitting on the couch. We needed to find a way to get that shit together. I just couldn't take the risk of being pregnant duh.

-My head hurts so bad, he said putting his hand on his forehead.

-Same. But we'll need to go to the pharmacy anyway. I don't wanna take a risk.

-Morning after pill ?

-Yeah.

-But I don't have any money, he said shrugging.

-I think this shit is free. Or at least I hope so, I said nodding.

-I'm so sorry. I was less drunk than you, I should have thought of the condom, he said nervously playing with his hands.

-That's not your fault Vinny. Stop always putting the blame on you...

He shrugged.

-Alright, he said getting up. Breakfast ?

-Yeah, I said getting up too.

We went in the kitchen with the others.

-Hey, I said lazily rubbing my eyes.

-Hey, they all said in unison.

I jumped on my bed and sighed.

-We're safe I guess, he said laying on the bed next to me.

-I guess. I hope so. We're never having sex without protection ever again, I said turning to him.

He nodded.

-Yeah definitely. I'm so sorry, he said wrapping his arms around me.

-Already told you that was okay. I mean not that's not okay but that's not your fault, I said stroking his hair.

-Still.

-I'm so done with school, Ricky said laying on Vinny's couch.

-I think we all are honestly, Chris said raising his eyebrows.

-Yeah but once we'll be famous it's gonna be good, Vinny said smirking.

-Yeah famous and rich, and then fuck school, Devin said.

-That's what I meant, Vinny said.

-Yeah but music industry is a war, Chris said raising his eyebrows.

-We'll win that war, Ricky said proudly.

-Don't take much confidence, Chris is right, the music industry is a whole bunch of assholes. Not that I don't believe in you, but Chris is right, I said nodding.

-Thanks for ruining the mood, Vinny said rolling his eyes.

I sighed.

-I'm just being realistic, I said raising my eyebrows.

-Yeah but just let us have some dreams, he said shrugging.

-I'm just being realistic ! Not that I don't want y'all to blow up in the music industry, I said rolling my eyes.

-That's fine stop fighting, Ricky said.

-We're not fighting, Vinny and I said at the same time. 

I looked at him and smiled, he did the same.

Even though we were clearly fighting.

-Y'all are fighting, Devin said raising his eyebrows.

-No ! Vinny and I shouted.

-Okay, okay, you're not fighting, Devin said laughing.

-Good, Vinny said nodding.

I sighed.

-So how's your sex life ? Ricky asked.

-What about yours first ? Vinny said raising an eyebrow.

-That's not the question, Ricky said smirking.

Vinny shrugged.

-What's the problem about it ? Tiny dick ? Chris said laughing.

-Pretty much like it, I said playfully laughing.

Some "ooh"s and some laughs were being heard through the room.

Vinny frowned.

-Well, Chris said laughing.

-"Tiny dick" but still wanting it even when you're drunk, Vinny said shrugging and laughing.

I didn't like where it was going.

-Don't talk about that, I said frowning.

-About what ? The fact that we fucked at Chris' party ? And the fact that you were scared to be pregnant ?

-Are you fucking serious ?!

-Well you better assume your actions little girl, he said grinning.

-Don't get me started Vinny.

-Yeah but don't play that game, just remember I could've been the dad of your kid, he said grinning.

I slapped him and ran to leave the house.

I thought he was a good guy.

Thought he could respect our intimate life.

Thought I could be safe with him.

But I was so wrong.

He was another douchebag.

jaime: that's your decision... if you wanna talk about it I'm here you know

I sighed and went to Vinny's chat.
