“Shane, thanks for coming.” I couldn’t over how beautiful she looked. Even pregnant, she looked more beautiful then ever. I walked over to her, not sure whether a hug was appropriate of not so i just stood.

——————————————————————————————————————————

Even though i had been with Cole for over a year, i knew i would never get over Shane. She was the one i would always….no. Stop thinking like that. You are with Cole. You’re having a BABY together. You and Shane are friends and that’s it.

“Thanks for coming. I didn’t know who else to call.”

“It’s cool. Not a problem.” Shane said in that cool voice. “So what do i have to do?”

“Im not sure yet, this is my first class.” I laughed tiring to lighten the mood.

“Well i guess we’re about to find out. We should head in.”

“Ok.”

Shane coached me throughout the class. She was quite, but supportive. We went through the motions of the class. When the class was over we headed outside to leave.

“Well, thanks for coming. I was nervous about being here by myself.”

“Where’s Cole?”

——————————————————————————————————————-

“Where’s Cole?” As soon as i asked i wish i hadn’t because i hate pretending that i like her.

“She had a work thing to do.” And i hated the way she treated Carmen. If i could just tell Carm….no! It’s over. You blew it! She’s with Cole now.

“Oh…” That was all i could say. “Where’s your car, I’ll walk you over.”

“Um…i have to take a cab. Cole took the car.” That even annoyed more about her. So inconsiderate when it came to Carmen.

“No way. I’ll drive you home.”

————————————————————————————————————————-

“No way I’ll drive you home.” I loved that about Shane. She was always there when you needed her.

“That’s ok. I can take a cab.”

“No i’m driving you. My car is just over there.”

“Ok, thanks.”

The car ride to my house was quite. Neither of us knowing what to say. When we pulled up at my house, i didn’t want her to leave so i invited her in.

“Want to come in and see the baby’s room?”

“Nah, i should get going.”

“Just for a minute. You haven’t been in my new place yet.”
