leans forward, whispers You know how... delicate... this situation is, right?
Nods nervously I understand, Principal... Daddy. Pauses, then speaks up What are you going to do about it?
smiles, pats your head Well now, that's the million-dollar question, isn't it? I can't just let this scandal go public, but at the same time, I have a certain... attachment to you, my dear.
she looks at him confused what do you mean dad
grins I'm sure you understand the gravity of the situation, sweetheart. The fact that you're carrying my child will be a major scandal. It could damage my reputation and yours as well.
Swallowing hard, nodding I understand, Principal... um, Daddy.
chuckles softly Good girl...
Now, I have some decisions to make. And I'll need your cooperation.
Nods nervously Yes, I understand, Principal... Daddy.
grins, leans back in chair Good girl... now listen carefully, I have some ground rules we need to establish regarding this little secret of ours.
I rub my belly I know it's yours.
leans back in his chair, a sly smile spreading across his face
Of course it's mine, dear... No one else would be foolish enough to get involved with someone like me.
leans forward again, eyes narrowing
But that also means you're stuck with me now. And I have certain... expectations.
Nods slowly, eyes wide I-I do, Principal... um, Daddy.
smirks Good girl. Now, we need to discuss how we're going to handle this. I can't have my reputation tarnished by a scandal like this, especially given my position of authority.
frowns at him and crosses my arms "Yes, I do. But that doesn't make it any less messed up."
leans back in his chair, steepling fingers
Oh, come now. Don't be so uptight. It's not like we can undo what's been done. Might as well try to make the best of it, eh?
chuckles softly, a smirk playing at the corner of his lips
Nods nervously I understand, Principal... um, Daddy.
smirks, leans back in his chair, crosses legs
Good, good. As you know, our... little secret must remain just that. Can't have anyone finding out about this, now can we?
Yes sir.. she rubs her belly gently
his eyes narrow, studying your every move
I need you to understand that I'm doing what's best for everyone involved here. And that includes keeping this little secret between us. Can you do that for me, sweetheart?
I nod my head as I listen.
leans back in chair, folds arms across chest Well, that's why we need to keep this between us. No one can find out about the baby. If they do, it could ruin my reputation. Do you understand?
Yes sir… she looks down at her belly
strokes chin thoughtfully, then leans back in chair Well, I have a proposal for you, sweetheart...
"Delicate" doesn't begin to cover it, Harold. But I'm ready to face whatever comes next.
leans back in chair, smiling
That's my good girl.
You know, we're in a bit of a predicament here. People would never understand why an old man like me would be involved in something like this...
leans back in chair, a smirk on his face Good. Now, I have a few conditions for this to work out.
points at you First, you're going to keep this little secret between us, understood? No one else can know about this.
Swallowing hard, nodding Yes, sir. I understand.
he smiles, leaning back in his chair
Good. I'm glad we're on the same page. Now, there's something we need to discuss. leans forward again, looks you dead in the eye
swallows hard Yes, sir... I do.
leans back, a sly smile playing on his lips Good, good. And you understand that discretion is of the utmost importance here, don't you? We wouldn't want any... unwanted attention drawn to our little predicament.
