She yawned and then her phone rang.
“Hello? Hey Carrie…how’s Liam? You...you what? What do you mean you have to go to this audition? You dropped him off WHERE? You can‘t just…Carrie!”
I raised my eyebrow.
“So, you dropped him off HERE! Carrie, I have to…”
Taylor looked at her phone and groaned before leaving the room, quickly. When she came back a few minutes later, she was carrying a blanket bundle.
“Um…I think I’m good on blankets.” I said.
She rolled her eye.
“They aren’t for you.” she said.
I heard a baby gurgle then start to cry.
“Oh, come on Liam…don’t cry! Please be a good boy for mama.” she said.
She has a baby! I sat up and looked at her in shock.
“You have a baby!” I screamed.
“Shh! Don’t yell, he’s trying to go to sleep and yes, I have a baby.”
“With Alex?” I asked slightly heartbroken.
“No…” she said walking around.
“So…you inherited a Baby…adopted one…”
“Nope.” she said.
Liam stopped crying and started laughing. She started making faces at him.
“When the hell were you pregnant?” I asked.
“Seeing as how he’s four months now…add 9 months…so about 13 months ago?” she said being a smartass.
“C…can I see him?” I asked curiously.
“Why?” she asked.
“Because…please?”
She licked her lips and looked down at the baby before walking over to show me the baby.
“He…”
“Don’t say it.” she said.
“He’s mine, isn’t he? The day of the wedding when you called…that was the important news, wasn’t it?”
She walked away with Liam and sighed with her back towards me.
“Yeah…it was.”
