Billionaire A BWWM Pregnancy Romance 8: My Billionaire Baby Wish
she said.
    Julie
squinted.
    “ I
am not so sure if that’s a good thing. Definitely not an aww
moment.”
    “ Oh
come on, live a little and see things from my perspective,” Meg
said.
    Julie
shrugged. “Which is?”
    “ You
guys fought!” she said a bit too excitedly.
    Julie
shook her head.
    “ I
still don’t see what you are gaining from this.”
    “ Okay
what I mean is…and no offense, is that you guys are always a
little too perfect. Sometimes I want to punch you just to make sure
you’re real.”
    Julie
smiled and then shook her head.
    “ Wow.
That’s a lot coming from my best friend.”
    “ Like
I said, no offense,” Meg interjected quickly.
    “ And
what about you and Ellis? What happened there?” she asked.
There was a cheeky look in her eyes that spoke volumes. She noticed
Meg’s cheeks flush. If she was any lighter, she would have been
a giant tomato at that moment.
    “ Well,
I don’t really know what to say…” she started but
Julie shook her head.
    “ No,
you are not playing that card. I want to know what happened at the
wedding. I mean one minute, you are all against the whole idea of
being set up and the next, you are waving his key card in my face?
You better start dishing out,” she said before she took another
sip.
    Meg
smiled and then shrugged.
    “ Okay
truth be told, I have never really liked the idea of being set up,”
she started.
    “ Yeah.
I remember you have had some terrible first dates,” she said,
laughing. “Remember Louie?” she asked.
    Meg
shook her head. “Please don’t remind me,” she said
as she rolled her eyes.
    “ Well,
the next time I tell you that I have your best interests at heart,
trust me,” she smiled.
    Meg
frowned and then leaned forward to put her glass on the table.
    “ One,
you never said that about setting me up with anyone and two, you have
never set me up with anyone…well except for Ellis of course,”
she said. Julie couldn’t help but notice the dreamy look she
had in her eyes at that moment. “And we both know that you did
not orchestrate that willingly,” she added quickly.
    Julie
raised an eyebrow.
    “ Hey,
what is that supposed to mean?” she asked as she looked at her
best friend.
    “ Well,
he told me that he had asked you guys to set him up with me,”
she said. Julie smiled and shook her head. “Or is it just a
coincidence that he was the best man and I was the maid of honor?”
Meg asked and Julie shrugged.
    “ Guess
you will never know,” she said before she put her glass on the
table and sighed. “That’s the time? I am starved,”
she said as she leaned against the seat.
    Meg
looked at her phone and smiled.
    “ It’s
eleven fifteen,” she said.
    “ Perfect,”
Julie said as she stood up and walked to the kitchen. Meg gave her a
confused look for a second and then followed her, carrying the two
glasses in her hands.
    “ What
do you mean? What’s perfect? Perfect for what?” she
asked. Julie was now looking into the fridge pulling out all the
cheese and deli meats she could find.
    “ Perfect
for grilled cheese sandwich,” Julie said as she washed her
hands.
    Meg
raised an eyebrow over the other.
    “ Are
you sure you’re just making a grilled cheese sandwich or a
sandwich with everything you can get your hands on?” she asked.
    Julie
looked at her and shook her head.
    “ Stop
asking questions and make yourself useful,” she said as she
started buttering up the bread. She put a few salami pieces on a
couple of slices before she put on the rest of the fillings. She was
suddenly second guessing the cheese. ”Put this back. I don’t
think I’ll need it,” she said as she handed the cheese to
Meg. “So, I have to ask, you know, as your best friend and
everything,” Julie started as she pressed the cover of the
Panini press on the bread.
    “ What?”
Meg asked. She was now nibbling on a slice of cold salami.
    “ Are
you serious with Ellis?” Julie asked. Meg looked at her and
smiled before she shrugged.
