I turned off the light in my office and carried the phone down the hall with me “Think it could be a boy?”

Her eyes widened “You really want this, don’t you?”

Fuck I didn’t knohat I wanted Only, that when I ith her, I wanted my baby inside her Hell yeah, I wanted it

“You’re going to have my baby, Alexa”

There was silence on her end, but she wasn’t

“Why are you so damned far away?” she whimpered

“Not ht?”

“Right” She smiled “In five days we’ll be out We don’t have to hide We’ll take this stupid test Our worlds are going to be completely different”

“And Jake knows about everything? He has a plan?” I didn’t give a shit about that fucker, but he was the reason Alexa had to hold off onthis public

“I’ care of Jake Ok?”

I walked into e as Alexa’s She could walk circles in that place

“Charlie is basically doing somersaults It’s like she won some kind of publicity lottery We are officially off her shit list for the stunt we pulled in DC”

“I’”

She puckered her lips together “Good night”
