Carla and Joey wake and enjoy breakfast together.
---------------------------------------
"Good morning sweetheart, how did you sleep?" Joey asks, taking a bite of his cereal.
"I slept alright, I can't wait to share the bed with you." Carla beams.
"I'm glad, I can't wait either.."
"How did you sleep?" She asks.
"I slept pretty good, I was exhausted and knocked right out."
There was a weird silence, only sounds of eating could be heard.
Carla looked up nervously from her plate, "hey, we need to talk."
"What is it?" Joey asked, gulping. "Was it something I've done?"
"Oh it's just that......when we fucked yesterday I was worried.....I had to uh...." She also then gulped, "I needed to take a pregnancy test."
Joey clenched his teeth and inhaled sharply, "I'm so sorry, I should've thought about that sooner. Are you pregnant?!"
"No." She says relived.
He exhaled deeply, "Thank god, I mean not that you wouldn't be a good mother because I think you would and not that I wouldn't consider a baby with you......but knowing our circumstances....you know."
"Oh, I know and I agree. Losing our child would be awful, I wouldn't wanna do that."
"So what do we do?" Joey asks, nervously.
"I'm now on birth control, I saw the nurse." She explains.
"I'm glad." He reached out and touched her hand. "I just should've thought of this before. I'm sorry."
"No no." She shakes her head, "it's partly my fault....we were both negligent."
