Jayden couldn't believe his ears. He stopped what he was doing and just stood motionless repeating her words in his mind. Was she for real? He wanted to give her some off-beat flippant response, but he couldn't. He had never considered the implication of having sex with a friend. Then his mind went into a second shock; when he realized that he considered Mia a friend. When did he start having or considering females as friends? And when did she become a friend? All hell, somehow without him knowing it- it had finally happened to him- a fucking accident waiting to happen had just happened to him; and he hadn't even realized that he had been hit. What the hell was he going to do about this?
"For real? You gonna give me some?" Jayden was trying to sound nonchalant about it. He was trying to pretend like it was just some more random pussy by a random nameless and faceless 'trick, but he knew he was lying to himself. He knew that if he accepted this pity pussy from Mia, it would come with more strings attached than a 250 string piano. Did he really want to open this door? He looked down at his hand that was still holding onto the latch of his car door. It was slightly trembling.
"Well, there's going to be conditions…" She eased into the conversation and Jayden swore that he heard the piano strings being plucked.
"… How did I know that this was coming…" He said slightly disappointed and relieved at the same time. Even though he had put the offer on the table, he really didn't want to get mixed up with her; she was not just an accident but also had a trap included free of charge. The other thing that was bugging him was the fact that he wasn't sure about himself. He wasn't sure if he could guarantee that he wouldn't be the kind of man that his father had been towards his mother. Jacob Ellis had dated his mother for more than two years, impregnating her and still leaving her for another woman with children that were not his. How could he know that he wouldn't do the same trifling things to this woman that had happened to his mother? What if there were children? It was because of his fear of inheriting his father's genetic makeup that he avoided women and relationships with them. Damn he cursed when he thought about himself thinking too much. All he wanted was some good pussy, but somehow he had jumped the gun and was imagining him and Mia in a relationship with kids. Like he had originally thought when he had first met her; accident waiting to happen with a trap included free of charge.
