Kenny's POV
"I told you, stay there and just look pregnant." I say which makes Izzy roles her eyes at me. "What?"
"Well I certainly have that down." Izzy says and I shoot her a smile.
"Great, so just stay there and yeah, okay. I love you don't do anything dumb while I take these down to the truck."
"Yes because my aching back and feet will make me want to do something stupid." Izzy says and I shrug.
"You never know." I say and head out the apartment.
I load the boxes with the help of the movers of course. I can't do it all myself. The good thing is Izzy and I didn't have as much stuff as one would think. We don't hoard stuff, unlike my mom. She's something else man.
"Kenny!"
I look up and see Claire?
Not this bitch again. Why is she here anyway?
"Hey Claire, what are you doing here?" I ask as I load the last box I brought.
"Oh Izzy called me, she said something about coming over to keep her some company and if I could help. So I said yes." Claire says and I raise my eyebrow.
Part of me wants to call Christen, another part of me wants to cuss her out, BUT another part of me wants to hug her and thank her for helping.
Decisions. Important ones.
"Come on I'll take you inside. Izzy is inside hopefully sitting down doing absolutely nothing like I told her to do." I say as we walk inside.
As we walk inside the building my phone rings, I see a message from Christen.
Izzy's dumb (not stupid) girlfriend: I just picked up Morena from my parents and adopted a Lab and Golden Retriever. Housewarming gift for Bella. What do you think? You think she'll forgive me? Oh don't tell her I'm on my way there.
You have got to be fucking kidding me. She's insane. That's a whole three dogs.
Me: You're out of your mind. Just get here.
"You okay?" Claire asks.
"Um yeah, yeah. Come in." I say as I open the door and put my phone in my pocket. "Izzy? Claire is here."
"Claire! You came! Thank you. I didn't want to be that person, but I really can't lift anything right now. Kenny can't do it all herself even with the movers, we need to be out by tomorrow."
"I wonder who's fault that is." I mumble.
"So I messed up the date, you literally can't blame me you were with me so you could've said something but you didn't." Izzy says.
"Alright I get it, I could've but I didn't I was distracted." I say raising my hands up.
"By your phone with Kelley." Izzy says and I smile.
"Yeah that's right."

"Well that was the last box, we should get going. I need to put the base of your bed so you have somewhere comfy to sleep tonight." I say as I close the back of the U-Haul truck.
"I'll order us some food, I don't want to cook tonight. Unless you do?" Izzy says and my eyes widen.
"That's a no for me, order some food. I'm exhausted."
"Thought so. Claire do you want to come over and eat with us at the new house?" Izzy asks Claire.
My phone buzzes again, I check to see and it's a message from Christen saying she's close.
I know this is not gonna end good.
Will it be my fault? Nope.
Izzy's POV
"Izzy I hate you." Kenny says and I furrow my eyebrows.
"What why?"
"Because you just had to have a big ass bed, for what? Ma'am you sleep alone." Kenny says and I roll my eyes.
"I love you Ken." I say as I kiss her head.
A knock on the door is heard, which is weird since no one necessarily knows the address.
Shit the food.
"Yeah yeah go get the door, it's definitely the food. I'm starving." Kenny says.
I roll my eyes as I ruffle her hair.
"I got it!" Claire shouts.
I walk into the kitchen to grab my wallet from my purse, then take out the money and walk towards the door.
"See at least someone's nice Kenny." I say with a laugh.
"Oh fuck off!" Kenny shouts. I turn around and see her flipping me off. Fun.
"What the hell are you doing here?" I hear the voice of the one and only, my girlfriend.
"Babe?"
"Isabella, would you want to tell me why on earth she's here." Christen says, her voice raised, as she points to Claire.
I furrow my eyebrows as I walk over to her.
"Claire can you give us a minute?" I say with a soft smile.
"Um yeah, yeah, I'll go help Kenny finishing your bed frame." Claire says and I nod.
Claire walks away, once she's gone I look at Christen.
"Do not raise your voice Christen Annemarie. I called Claire this morning to help Kenny out because simply if you forgot I'm pregnant and I can't lift anything. The movers weren't of any help either."
"Oh, I didn't know." Christen says and I close my eyes.
I take a deep breath and I hear another knock. I open my eyes and look at Christen.
"That's the food. I'm gonna go pay, go leave your stuff in my room. And go apologize to Claire."
"Excuse me?"
"You heard me." I say as I walk to the door.
"Baby."
"Don't 'baby' me Christen. Now go." I say.
"Can I at least get a kiss?" Christen asks and I laugh.
"You're funny. After I'm not too hangry maybe." I say and she smiles.
"I love you."
"I love you too."
