"So, Blake what have you been up to?" Ian asked as we walked down the halls.
"Well, It's been one hell of a year." I replied, laughing to myself.
"How so?" Ian and Ben both said at the same time.
"For one, I got hit by a car."
"WHAT?" Ian and Ben said at the same time again.
"And then I got kidnapped."
"WHAT?"
"And then I got shot, but that was on the same day." I said casually.
"WHAT?"
"And then I went away for a while, and now I'm the editor in chief of the magazine I work for and I'm pregnant."
"WHAT?" Ian said along this time.
"At least I knew that last one." Ben said.
"Woah." Ian said with wide eyes.
"That's... a lot." He continued.
"I couldn't even tell you were pregnant."
I unbuttoned my coat and opened it up, so he could see my slight bump.
He smiled and I buttoned my coat back up.
"So, what have you been up to?" I asked.
"I taught some math. And some more math." He said as I laughed.
A few minutes later we were standing by my car, saying goodbye to Ian.
"Next time you're in town, give me a call." He said with a grin, handing me his number.
"I will." I said with a small laugh.
"Good. I want you to meet my daughter."
"You have a daughter?"
"Yeah. I adopted her a couple of years ago. Her name's Lilly." He said with a proud smile.
"She's in my class." Ben added.
"I'll be sure to call then."
Ian nodded and gave me another smile before walking away.
Ben and I both got in the car. I cranked the heat up automatically and rubbed my hands together from the cold.
"Is he married?" I asked Ben as we started driving.
"No. I think he decided to adopt Lilly by himself." He replied.
I nodded and continued to drive.
"So, this Lilly. Is she cute?" I asked with a smirk.
"Blake..." He said with a groan.
"Oh come on! Is she cute?""
