Brielle spun on her heels at the sound of the voice and giggled as she saw a handsome stranger staring at her. “Hey handsome,” she whispered, giggling again.
“Looks like someone is drunk,” he announced, his lips curled in a frown.
She shrugged him off. “I'm not that drunk. I remember my name.”
“Well what is your name?”
“I'll be at the bar drinking,” Jessica whispered and left them alone.
“My roommate. She dragged me here.” she said and he raised an eyebrow.
“Well, are you enjoying yourself then?”
Brielle shrugged and wiggled her nose. “I don't feel so good.” She whispered before she bent and gagged.
The man stepped aside but luckily nothing came out. “What a close call, alright let's get you out of here.”
“I don't even know your name.” Brielle grumbled as she leaned against him.
“My name is Nikolai but you can call me Nik.” he told her as he led her out. He looked around for her friend and frowned. “I don't see your friend anywhere.”
Brielle grunted and looked around. “Oh she's not new to places like this. I'm sure she'll be fine. Can you take me home?”
“What if I'm a serial killer?” he asked with a grin as he led the way to the exit.
“A serial killer wouldn't say that.” she rolled her eyes and he chuckled as he weaved through the crowd. “There are so many people,” she complained and he bent and picked her up.
“What are you doing?” She asked with wide unclear eyes.
“I'm taking you home.”
She leaned against him and closed her eyes. “I don't feel good,”
“Hang in there dear, you'll be home soon.”
He hailed a cab and after inquiring from her, he gave the cabman instructions. “Stay awake, you'll be home soon.”
A few hours later, Brielle was lying in bed, holding her head. “Ugh, I shouldn't have drank so much.”
Nikolai smirked as he walked out of the bathroom with a wet towel. “Here, place this on your head.”
“Thank you,” she placed it on her head and moaned at the coolness. “You should stay the night, it's getting pretty late.”
He frowned and looked down at his watch. “I should go home. You have classes tomorrow and I have work.”
“Oh come on, the night is still young.” she argued as she got out of bed.
Nikolai inhaled sharply as he saw her bare breasts. “What are you doing?” Without waiting for her reply, he continued. “Are you trying to seduce me?”
She shrugged but there was a grin on her face. “Is it working?”
He felt a certain part of his anatomy stir as she walked up to him bare from the waist up. “You're playing with fire.”
“Maybe I want to get burned.” She shot back without fear as she finally reached his side. “What are you going to do about it?”
He hesitated and then he grabbed her roughly. “You've been a bad girl,” his tone was hoarse and gritty.
“Then punish me,” she whispered just as his lips came crashing down on hers.
“It's going to be a long night dear, back out now.” He warned as she carried her back to the bed.
She replied by pressing herself into him and biting his neck. He groaned and crashed his lips on hers again.

“Wake up Brielle,” Jessica whispered as she shook her roommate's body.
Brielle groaned and stretched as she opened her eyes. “When did you get here?” She asked as she looked around the room as if looking for something.
“What are you looking for?” Jessica asked, frowning.
Brielle's face flushed and she shook her head. “Oh nothing.” She chewed her bottom lip as she remembered what had happened in that room. He had been rough but she didn't mind.
The soreness between her legs felt strange and uncomfortable but she felt good and he had helped her forget all about Brian.
“What is this?” Jessica asked as she held up a wristwatch.
Brielle's eyes widened and she grabbed it, sniffing it. “It's uhn…mine.”
It wasn't hers. It was Nikolai's but she wasn't ready to talk about that yet. She lazily slid out of bed and yawned, grunting at the soreness in her body.
“Is that a hickey?” Jessica gasped, and Brielle spun around. “There, right there on your neck.”
Brielle ran into the bathroom and looked in the mirror. Sure enough there was a bite size love bite on her neck.
She blushed as she remembered how Nikolai had been sucking on her neck.
“Are you ready to tell me about it?”
Brielle shook her head and jumped into the tub. “We should get ready for class.”
Jessica didn't argue and they both went about their day as if nothing happened but deep down Brielle knew she'd have to talk about the events of that night.
Two weeks later….
Brielle stared at the nurse nervously as she held a syringe close to her wrist.
“Don't worry dear, it doesn't hurt.”
She nodded numbly and leaned back in her seat as the nurse did her thing, wincing when the top of the needle pierced into her skin.
She had been feeling weak and a bit unwell for days. She could barely keep anything down and the smell of fish didn't appeal to her anymore.
Jessica had joked about her being pregnant but Brielle knew it was impossible because Nikolai had used a condom.
It was probably a stomach bug or an infection. Either way once the results were out, she'd know for sure.
“Just wait here. The test will be ready in an hour.”
Brielle nodded and the door of the room closed as the nurse walked out. Sighing, she leaned back in bed and closed her eyes.
One of the things she hated about checkups was the long waiting hours it took before the results came out.
She must have dozed off because when she opened her eyes again, the clock on the wall had changed and it was now noon.
She yawned and sat and the door opened just then. The nurse from before walked in holding an envelope in her hand.
“Here you go. The results are in.”
Brielle looked at it and frowned. “What does it say?”
“You're two weeks pregnant Miss Brielle.”
The paper fell out of Brielle's hand immediately. “What?”
“You're pregnant.” The nurse repeated.
But how was this possible? He had worn a condom, she knew this for sure because she had given him one from Jessica's locker.
Unless….
A sense of dread washed over her as the reality of her situation finally dawned on her. “I'm going to be a mum!”
