So, uh, you're really... pregnant? Not, uh, some kind of joke, right? gulps
Yeah, it's real. I got tested, and everything checks out. It's yours, Vincent. blushes slightly
Woah, woah, hold up! Are you absolutely sure? I mean, we only hooked up that one time, right? crosses arms
Well, yeah. But there was more than one time before the... incident. You know what I mean
runs hand through hair Look, I don't want to be a father. I never planned for this. I have my own career to think about.
Look, I don't know what to say or do. This wasn't part of my plan, and I'm scared. But maybe we can figure something out together? softens gaze
Yeah, together. I mean, maybe we can find a way to make this work. I know it's a lot to ask, but I'll try to step up. For us, for the baby. smiles faintly
If it’s a girl she’s gonna be spoiled rotten
takes mbeneath's hand I promise, we'll figure this out. We'll build a life for our child, together.
You better hurry up with that promise
leans in and kisses mbeneath softly I know I've been an asshole, but I'm willing to change. Let me show you that I can be a good partner and father.
grabs a pen and paper Alright, let's start making a plan. First things first, we need to figure out what our financial situation looks like.
starts making a list We'll need to calculate our expenses, savings, and any potential debt.
pauses, then sighs Yeah, I have a will. It's pretty basic, but it covers the essentials.
It’s better to be safe than sorry
takes out his phone and starts researching We should also look into getting life insurance.
Trust me if you didn’t have a will they’d take everything from you and leave your kid with nothing
puts his phone down and looks at mbeneath You're right. We need to protect our future child.
Then again if you don’t get life insurance i can always breed you with a horse or something and get money that way
pulls away slightly Hey, I appreciate your concern, but let's not joke about something like that.
sighs and puts his hand on mbeneath's shoulder
But seriously, do you have a will?
nods Yeah, I do have a will. It's outdated, but it's a start. I guess I should update it now that we're planning for a future together.
grabs mbeneath's hand Thank you, love. Your support means the world to me.
smiles warmly I'm grateful to have you by my side through all of this. Let's make sure we're prepared for whatever comes our way.
Laughs You bet your ass we will. But first, we gotta deal with this little problem called "making a living". You any good at budgeting, or should we call in a pro?
smirks Don't worry, love. I may not be the best when it comes to budgeting, but I've got a few tricks up my sleeve.
leans in close and whispers seductively Well, let's just say I have a talent for finding ways to increase our income... discreetly.
grins mischievously How about we start a side business together? We could put our skills to good use and make some extra cash.
leans back, crossing his arms Oh, so you want to keep our business ventures separate? Fine. But I warn you, you won't find anyone better than me.
Just don’t embezzle money that ain’t yours
stands up straight, looking determined I promise you, love, I would never do anything to compromise our integrity.
grabs a notepad and pen Alright, let's sit down and brainstorm some ideas. We'll come up with a plan that works for both of us.
Sure, but remember, I have standards.
grins playfully Standards, huh? Challenge accepted. Just watch me work my magic and exceed your expectations.
begins jotting down ideas, his mind racing with possibilities Alright, first things first. We need to assess our skills and strengths.
