Second thoughts

“Margot? What is going on with you? Why are you naked?” Asked Carol.

“Never you mind that, ‘future girl’!” Yelled Margot. “You’ve ruined my business, so I’ll going to ruin you guys.”

“Ruin us how?” Asked Cindy.

“We better not find out. Run, now!” The three started running away, Margot following suit.

“God, that was amazing. You are amazing!” Smiled Dexter, as he laid next Sophie.

“You’re pretty amazing yourself, sweetheart.”

“By the way, I know I should’ve asked you this before we did this, but are you sure you took your pill? I’m not quite ready to be a dad yet.”

“My pill?” Sophie had a confused look, turning into realization. “Oh, that! That was a lie, I’m not on the pill.”

“WHAT?!” Dexter shot up from his bed.

“I’m sorry, what I meant to say was that we no longer need it. In 2134, scientists made it possible to have sex without having to worry about pregnancy.”

Dexter sat down, sighing heavily. “Thank God! You scared the crap out of me, you know that?”

Sophie laughed. “Sorry, honey.”

“Say Sophie?”

“Yes?”

“Do you think I’ll… fit in? Y’know, in your time?”

“…I’m sure you will.”

“You paused.”

“I did not!”

“Sophie!”

“…Fine. Truth is, a lot has changed in the future. It will take quite some time for you to adjust, and that might- no, will be hard. But I’ll help you. I know you can do it.“

“I… I need some time to think.” Dexter stepped out of the balcony door, staring around, when he noticed something. “Is that your sister, running with Cindy and Karen from a naked woman?”

“What?!” Sophie stepped outside, leaning over railing. “God, Carol. What did you get yourself into now?”
