ChampagneSerenity
"Then maybe you should've thought about that before you knocked me up."

ChampagneSerenity
"And what exactly did you think about? How you'd avoid your responsibilities?"

ChampagneSerenity
"Enlighten me then, Nick. What am I missing?"
smirks, leaning back You're missing the fact that I hold all the cards here.
ChampagneSerenity
"Really? So you're just going to threaten me now?"

ChampagneSerenity

leans back, smirking Choice number one: you can continue with this pregnancy, raise this child on your own, and deal with all the consequences that come with it.
ChampagneSerenity
"And what's choice number two?"

"Fine, let's say I agree. What's next?"

ChampagneSerenity
"Alright...but how do we know it'll be safe?"
