The woman blinks. “No, just it was for two, but it’s...okay. I will change it. Have a seat.”

We sit. Eli taps his fingers against his knee. I lean back in my chair, glancing at Sienna. “You nervous?”

She rolls her eyes. “No. This is just weird.”

The nurse calls her in, and Eli and I stand.

The nurse blinks. “Oh. Um, just her.”

“They’re coming,” Sienna says firmly, grabbing both of our wrists and dragging us along.

Inside, the doctor glances up from her clipboard, eyes flicking between the three of us like the receptionist did. “So, you’re all here together?”

Sienna sighs. “Yes.”

The doctor nods, flipping through paperwork. “Okay. So, we’ll do full STD screenings for all of you.” She pauses. “And birth control?”

Sienna nods. “Yeah. I take the pill, but I was thinking about trying the IUD.”

The doctor talks through how it works.

Eli listens carefully. “That safe?”

Sienna snorts. “Millions of women have it, Eli.”

He crosses his arms. “My dick is going to reach that.”

I smirk. “Mine, too.”

The doctor is trying to appear comfortable, but she is failing.

Sienna tells her that she’ll stay on the pill, and Eli kisses her cheek.

“What do you need?” Eli asks as we leave the clinic.

Sienna sighs dramatically. “Ice cream.”

I chuckle.

She glares at me. “You don’t get to judge me. I was just stuck in a tiny room while a doctor asked me uncomfortable questions with you two sitting there like bodyguards.”

I nod. “You brought us into the room with you.”

Eli rubs his chin. “Ice cream, huh?”

I stretch. “I know a place. Chicken and waffles.”

Sienna perks up. “With ice cream?”

“Yup.”

Eli sighs. “I’m driving.”

His McLaren is sleek as hell, low to the ground, fast, aggressive. I slide into the passenger seat, smirking. “Overcompensating?”

Sienna snorts from the backseat. “You both are compensating.”

He revs the engine. “Yeah, yeah. Seatbelts.”
