A few weeks had past I was now 6 months pregnant and starting to enjoy it. Things were going great! Me and Drake were doing great it was like nothing had ever happened. Bebe went on TV and tried to save face by saying that she had lost the baby and dragged Drake and me through the mud but I knew she was just jealous so I just let it go. Megan was still staying with us he hinted around about her living here; Drake loved the idea he knew I would need help while he was on tour or away. She was going to the same college as me and Josh anyways and staying in the dorms. We wanted to convert the basement to her own little place. Audrey and Walter weren't too pleased with this they thought we would rub off on her and she would end up on drugs and pregnant.
"Baby, do you mind if I go out tonight with a few friends?" Drake asked peeking his head into the new nursery where I was folding little baby clothes.
"No, its fine I was just going to relax tonight and sign up for classes."
"You're going to go back to school?"
"Of course I have one year left I can't just quite now!"
"Who's gonna watch the baby I mean I might be going on tour and Josh has school!"
"Trust me I already thought about all of this either I'll find a sitter which kills me to say, or I can do what I originally planned and me and Jared rotate days and he watches the baby when you're not here. I'll go to school Tuesdays and Thursday's and Jared will go Monday, Wednesday and Fridays."
"Is he really willing to do that?"
"Yeah… he's like my best friend."
"I thought I was your best friend!" Josh yelled from the next room.
"Well I look at you like a brother so I think that's a step up from best friends. So you've been promoted. And stop ease dropping!" I told Josh who was now standing in the door way with Drake and I was still putting away things.
"What's going on here? Is Ashlee having the baby?" Megan said poking her head in between the boy.
"You're such a smart ass!" I laughed "I love how all of you are just standing there while the pregnant women is doing all the work!"
"What are you two doing tonight?"
"I have a date!" Megan answered pushing through the boys to sit next to me and start folding onsies.
"With who?" Drake bellowed.
"Ummm… MYOB!" Megan replied with a smile on her face.
"MYOB? What… what is that?" Drake asked like an old man.
"Mind your own business Drake!" I answered rolling my eyes.
"No I have the right to know she's living with us!" He hollered back at me.
"No Drake, it means mind your own business." I inhaled deeply not wanting to say what was on my mind.
"I'm sorry for hollering." Drake apologized sitting next to me and kissing my cheek.
"It's alright we all know you're a goofball! Why don't you go get ready to go out?" I said kissing him back softly on his lips. He walked out of the room and down the hall completely forgetting to ask who Megan was going out with tonight.
"I'm not doing anything tonight what do you want to do?" Josh asked taking Drakes place and picking up baby socks.
"Dinner maybe, I really don't feel like cooking and I thought maybe we can walk the mall. I can't go with Drake it's like something out of a nightmare."
"That sounds good. I'll go take a shower and get ready."
"Sounds good!" I waited till both boys were out of ear shot to get the dirt out of Megan. "Are you going out with Jared tonight?"
"Yes and I hate to ask but I need to borrow some money. I like him so much and I think he thinks that I have to be taken to the nicest places in town I would like to be able to pay half." She asked looking at the floor embarrassed.
"Oh yea that's fine. Drake doesn't mind you borrowing money until you get a job."
"Ugh… a job?"
"Yes Megan sooner or later your gonna need to get a job."
"Okay!" Se grunted and walked out of the room.
I finished up in the nursery and got dressed to go out with Josh. All of Drakes friends came over before they went out. Of course they all ignored me they thought I was taking away his freedom, I was ruining his life.
"Drake can I talk to you real quick before you go?" The crowd of clean cut teenagers owed like he was called to the principal's office.
"What's up baby? Now you two be good tonight!" He told my belly.
"Look I just want to tell you a few things… I don't want you driving drunk if that happens just get a cab or call me or Josh. No girls! That's it that's all you have to remember and we'll be cool."
"Okay… baby please don't worry. I love you and I won't do anything to mess this up."
Should he mess up or let it go?
