though.”
    “True.  So how are you and Quinn?”
    “Umm, alright, ” he says softly.
    “What’s wrong.”
    “I don’t know. I mean I like her, I really do, but we don’t have a whole hell of a lot in common.”
    “That’s not true.”
    “Then what do we have in common, Hails?”
    “You both love action movies, you are in a fraternity and she’s in a sorority, you both love to drink.   Hmm…you both like the color green.  You both love summertime.  You definitely have more in common than you realize.”
    “I guess.”
    “ I’m right.”
    “Umm…there’s something else, ” he says hesitantly.
    “What’s that?”
    “Liam asked me to invite you to the wedding,” he says changing subjects.
    “I can’t, I’m in London.”
    “I know, I told him that.”
    “He asked me to ask if you could try and make it.”
    “Shit.  When is it?”
    “July 21st .”
    “That’s in three weeks,” I shriek.
    “I know.”
    “There’s no way I can do that much flying with being pregnant.”
    “I know, I was about to say that , but I stopped myself.”
    “Thanks.  I’ll call him later and talk to him.”
    “You’re going to tell him over the phone?” he asks surprised.
    “No, that’s something I need to do in person , but I may have to tell him I’m pregnant.”
    “K eep me posted on how he takes that,” he says on a laugh.
    “It will be fine.  Dinner’s almost done , so I will talk to you later.”
    “Okay, be safe Hails.”
    “Always,” I say before disconnecting the call.
    Kenzie made spaghetti that looks incredible and I can’t wait, because I am beyond famished. “This is delicious,” I say as I stuff my mouth causing my sister to laugh at me.
    “I’m glad,” she says as she takes her own bites.  I fill her in on my conversation with Brody and decide to call Liam after dinner.
    Once the dishes are washed and put away I grab my phone and dial Liam’s number.  I’m not sure I even have the right number anymore, but when it starts ringing, I have a little hope.
    “Hello?”
    “Liam?”
    “Yeah.”
    “Hey, it’s Haley.”
    “Oh hey, what’s up?” he asks surprised.
    “I talked to Brody a little while ago, so I wanted to give you a call.”
    “Okay, how’s London?”
    “It’s great.  I love the scenery and the job.”
    “That’s great Hails.”
    “But what I was calling for is to let you know that I won’t be abl e to make it to your wedding.”
    “I fig ured it would be a lot of traveling in a few short days.”
    “ It is and in my condition that isn’t really going to work,” I say nervously.
    “What do you mean?”
    “Liam, I’m pregnant.”
    “You’re what?” he asks , sounding utterly shocked.
    “I’m pretty far along too, so it wouldn’t be easy.”
    “When are you due?”
    “End of September.”
    “That’s in two months, you can’t fly when you’re that close to birth,” he says, like I’ve lost my mind.
    “I know , but I still have some time.”
    “How are you feeling?” he asks kindly.
    “I’m tired, but good.  I’m ready to not be pregnant,” I say laughing.
    “Why didn’t I know this already?”
    “You’re busy; you have your own life going on.”
    “Is there anything I can do?” he asks sweetly.
    “Just be happy .  Do what makes you happy Liam; you deserve that.  I’m sorry I won’t be able to make it, but I’m sure I’ll see you sometime soon.”
    “Thanks for letting me know, I appreciate it.”
    “Have a good night.”
    “You too Hails,” he says before hanging up.
    “You told him?” Kenzie asks looking shocked.
    “That I was pregnant yes, not that it’s his.”
    “Oh, I missed that part,” she says as she takes a seat.  “You are getting bigger and bigger by the day woman,” she says as she looks at my growing bump.
    “Thanks, like I haven’t noticed or felt it.”
    “I think you look cute preggers though.”
    “ Glad someone does,” I mumble.
    The rest of the evening is us hanging out at the
