"So wait," Mia bumps Sophie up and down on her knee as she plays about with her pacifier. "Why do you need my help?"

"I need to gather research for my paper," I get ready to explain my lie again. "And to do that I need to talk to a girl, about girl stuff..." I say awkwardly.

"What type of girl stuff..." Mia makes a disgusted face.

"Just like..." to be honest I didn't think I'd get this far with my plan so I have no idea what to say. "Periods and things." I mentally slap myself.

"Periods and things?" Mia echos with a laugh.

"Yes," I pretend to be getting annoyed. "Periods and things."

Mia squints her eyes at me. "You are writing a paper on this?"

"Just a section. Not a full paper," that seems believable. "I just need to make sure I get it right," I roll my eyes. "Will you help or not?"

"Fine, fine." Mia sighs and kisses the top of Sophie's head before turning her around and leaning back on the couch a bit. She begins to rub Sophie's back softly. I think she is thing to get her to sleep.

"Okay, good." What the fuck am I supposed to say? "So, uh, Mia..."

"Should you not be writing this down or something?" Mia raises an eyebrow in suspicion.

"Oh," I bite my lip. "Uh, no, it's all up here." I tap my head and once again mentally slap myself.

"Oh," Mia nods and rolls her eyes. "Sure."

"Okay..." I lick my lips. "So... when... uh..." I'm not good with this. "When did you get your first period?" I blurt out.

"Okay," Mia's eyes widen. "I'm going to stop you now because I'm worried about you." she tells me. "If you came here to ask me about Karlie, then just asks."

I scoff. "Pfff!" I shake my head. "Karlie?" I am a horrible liar. "Why would I ask about Karlie?" I fake a laugh.

"Because you know she had her anomalies scan. And you are going to work in a hospital, so you know what that is." Mia says with a small smirk. "You want to know,"

"No." I lie and shake my head.

"Yes." She says back stubbornly. "You do." If she didn't have Sophie on her lap I can picture Mia crossing her arms over her chest and her legs over one another. She seems so cocky right now, it was really annoying.

"I don't." I continue to try and lie my way out of this.

"I could tell you."

"Would you?" I say far too quickly and Mia's little smile shows that she knows she has won. I was getting really annoyed now.

"Uh-huh," she nods her head slowly. "You may not want anything to do with him but he is still your son, and I know that you realize that and probably have some attachment," she smiles, her tone suggests one of understanding. Not confusion like I normally hears now when I talk to my friends. Or my 'friends'. It's really only Mia and Michael that talk to me. I still haven't even met Talia yet. But I doubt Calum will ever let me, which is fair enough.

"You know it's a boy right?" Mia asks. "Michael mentioned something about him telling you that." She says and bites her lip.

"Yeah," I sigh and rub the back of my neck. "I know it's a boy."

"Do you want to suggest a name?" Mia raises an eyebrow. I look back at her, not thinking she was serious. No way was I getting the say in his name. I didn't even want to be in his life, why the hell would Karlie let me name him?
