  I'm officially part of the Moms View. Colette begged me. I started the car and drove to Maker. Why did I let her talk me into this? Ugh this better be good.

   I walked in and Carlie hugged me.
"Hey!" She said.
"Hey."
"You filming with us?" She asked.
"I am."
"This is going to be so fun!" She says.
"Yea!" I faked it. You do what you have to.
"We are going to be giving you pregnancy tips for today's show." She says.
"Really?" As if I haven't read enough.
"Yeah, it's gonna be great." I smiled and sat down next to the moms on the couch.

  After the shoot I had a meeting With with Shay's second hand, Marshal.
"Hey Willa, come in." He opened the door and I sat in a chair.
"Alright, I wanted to talk to you about the little store in Venice beach." I say.
"Yeah, let's hear it."
"Im head of the design team and we have created so many things that you guys have loved. I want to turn that store to where it only sells our products to see if we are improving sales."
"I'd love that. But I was thinking more like 3 stores in the LA area."
"Are you serious?"
"We want great results right?"
"Yes." I was so happy.
"Let's plan for upcoming Spring that was we can clear the selves."
"Great."
"I'm going to double check that with Shay and the board and see where it takes us."
"Perfect, thank you." I shook his hand and walked out. A striking Handsome young guy was talking to Colette. He was clearly a wealthy snob but hey, he's cute.
"Willa." Colette waved me over. No no, this is not happening.
"Yes?" I asked. His eyes lit up.
"This is Jake Red." She said.
"Everyone calls me Red." He says with a silky smooth voice, that smelled of espresso. Excuse me while I calm my heartbeat.
"Willa Carson." Colette tapped my shoulder and walked off.
"You wanna get coffee?" He asked. I'm sorry, WHAT?
"Yeah sure." I said.
"Great." I followed him to a really expensive car and he took me to the point cafe. He pulled my chair out and I sat down. He ordered. Sam had called me during the shoot and again right now.
"Sam can't talk right now."
"No Willa I want to know why child support went up."
"It went up because you didn't pay last months."
"You haven't even given birth yet."
"I can't afford this without you. He is ours and we have to talk care of him."
"I get that but I'm on a YouTuber budget here."
"Talk to Abbey." My lawyer.
"You can talk to David."
"There is nothing for me to talk to David about."
"I'm doing all I can right now."
"Keep doing that." I hung up. Red looked at me.
"Boyfriend?" He asked. I shook my head.
"Baby daddy." I said.
"He freak out?"
"And left."
"I'm sorry."
"No I can do this. It's the 21st century, I can do this."
"Your very optimistic." ......
"Thank you." What?
"Your welcome. So tell me about you, Bonita." Bonita? Ooooo :)
" I live with 4 guys, what can I say."
"Men?"
"I'd say boys." He laughed.
"That's a great sense of humor."
"What about you big shot?"
"I am basically a millionaire for no reason." I laughed.
"What were you doing at Maker?"
"I invest."
"Oh."
"I assume you work at maker?"
"I am head and president of the design team for Trixin clothing."
"Wow, that's a mouth full." I smiled.
"It is."
"When is little one due?"
"He is due in August. I'm 29 weeks."
"Really? My sister is 30 weeks, whatever that means."
"Really? That's funny." He looked at his watch.
"Oh no, can I take you home, I have a meeting in 8 minutes."
"Oh yeah, thank you for coffee."
"I apologize for such a short chat."
"It's fine, maybe another time."
"Of course."

  I went home and googled him. He was who he said he was. I was looking at photos when Connor walked in. I shut the computer.
"What are you doing?" He asked.
"Nothing, just email."
"Who was that?"
"That was me, sometimes I google myself to see what other think about me."
"Last time I checked you didn't have abs, you didn't have facial hair, and you don't have a penis."
"Connor!"
"Who was that? A celebrity crush?"
"No."
"Who was it? He's hot."
"Jake Red." I say.
"Who ever he is he is fine!"
"I know right."
"How do you know him?"
"I met him at maker today during the shoot."
"That's impressive. He wasn't scared because of your watermelon?"
"No."
"Any signs of gay?"
"No, sorry."
"Damn."
"Alright well I'll let you get back to cyber stalking."
"Shut up." He laughed as he walked out.

I loaded the dishwasher. The guys were watching a movie. The Microwave beeped and I poured the popcorn in a bowl. I walked over with the bowl and sat in Connors lap. I passed the bowl around. Jc sniffled.
"Dude are you crying?" Kian asked.
"No." He manned up.
"It's ok." Caroline told him.
"Yeah Kian, it's ok." Jc said. Kian laughed to himself. It was quiet and we were engaged in the movie.
"Willa is seeing a guy." Connor muttered out.
"No I'm not." Kian looked at my with a confused look.
"Yeah you are." Connor said.
"We went out for coffee, that's nothing."
"He doesn't care about the baby?" Ricky asked.
"No."
"What's his name?" Kian asked.
"Just so we're clear I'm not dating him. His name is Jake Red." Kian and Jc busted up laughing.
"Come on guys, I want to laugh too!" Trevor said.
"Jake, Jake from State Farm?" Kian asked.
"At 3 in the morning, Who is this?!" Jc yelled.
"What are you wearing? Jake from State Farm?"
"Ugh, khakis." Connor says.
"Ok stop." I said everyone was laughing.
"Well she sounds hideous." Trevor said.
"Well he's a guy so.." I said.
"Damn that back fired." Connor says.
"And red is the colors for State Farm." Jc laughed so hard.
"Jc!" I threw the empty popcorn bowl at him.
"Sorry." We continued to watch the movie.

  I sat on my bed. Kian was giving me a lecture about dating when your pregnant. Not like he new anything.
"..Willa I just don't think it's appropriate." He said. I knew the real reason. The real reason was because he wanted to be with me.
"This is not your decision." I told him.
"And we are not dating." I clarified.
"But come on, his name is Jake Red! Might as well find another guy named Hump Wednesday." I wanted to laugh I couldn't. I didn't realize the door was open and so was all the guys doors.
"At 3 in the morning who is his!?" Ricky yelled.
"It's Jake from State Farm." Trevor yelled back.
"What are you wearing? Jake from State Farm." Connor joined in.
"Ugh khakis." Trevor said in a deep voice.
"Well she sounds hideous." Ricky screamed.
"Shut up!"
"Your gonna pop soon and I just worried about you." If he's not gonna make a move then I will.
"I realize you think of me as a sister but can you just stop being so protective, please?" He looked so hurt.
"Ouch." Connor whispered as he walked by. He didn't show any expression expect hurt.
"Goodnight." He slammed my door.
