Love My Friends with Benefits

Chapter 43: His Tenderness

I spat out my water.

Disgusted, May shrunk away from me. "Ew, you're gross."

I ignored her and stuffed another bite of food into my mouth.

"Speaking of pregnancies..." May looked at me seriously. "You and Leonard used protection, right?"

...

Startled, I choked on my food.

May patted me on the back, looking dazed. "I even thought that you were all hung up on him because you were pregnant with his child or something."

"What nonsense!"

I caught my breath and glared at her. "He might not be afraid of STDs, but I am!"

May let out a sigh of relief. "That's good to know."

I lowered my head and continued eating. The strong flavours made me tear up.

In fact, I wasn't telling May the truth. It was true that we'd used protection, but it wasn't because I wanted to. Leonard was the one who'd insisted.

In hindsight, right from the start, I'd probably been nothing more than a fling to him.

Moreover, the Nell family probably wouldn't let him off the hook if he'd got himself an illegitimate child.

I felt a little uncomfortable at the thought of this.

After dinner, May and I returned to her place.

I gave her a recap of what had happened over the past few days. Of course, I'd omitted my deal with Leonard. I just told her that he'd broken into my house at night and warned me not to disturb him and Phoebe.
