Should I start inserting a chapter song from now on?

I grab Josh's hand and give him a soft smile. I told him I was going to be an older sister. He was also excited for me, Josh had known I always wanted a younger sibling. Now I'm getting one! I was always the type of person to never rant when excited but today I was. I was jumping with joy at the baby shower.

Don't ask why but, I love baby showers. It was freezing out there so my mother decided to do the Baby Shower inside. She did the right thing for the guests.

"Baby making contest!" My mom's friend- Janice- from work shouted. Janice was a nice and fun woman. I've met her a couple times and she was always the best at cheering people up. "Okay this is how the game works. We will give you twenty minutes to create a baby made out of play doh. Whichever one is the most creative and cutest one will win! Whoever wins gets a fifteen dollar gift card to Chipotle. Go!"

All the ladies and gentlemen that were playing the game grabbed the play doh that they needed. They were laughing as they were making them. It was so hilarious watching them create the baby. Some people gave their babies a different body hat didn't match a human, some babies had beards and big bodies. After twenty minutes of watching my mom blew a horn. Don't ask why but, she did. We all laughed.

As the pregnant woman and her best friend judged the play-doh babies they laughed. A couple minutes of inspecting the little babies they stood at the end of a table. Both women were bickering on which baby was the best. They turned around and gave a smile after deciding on who won the game.

"Caleb won!" My eyes widened like a plate. He was here? When did he get here? I have to run. But I stood in place trying not to freak out. It's okay. I can just avoid him.

"Hey Leona." Caleb says beside me. I jumped with fright. Woah, he's fast. I didn't even see him as he walked up next to me.

"Oh, uh, hi." I awkwardly smiled. My hand did that little wave that everyone does when they're embarrassed.

Leona! Act normal you idiot!

"How's life been going for you?" I asked him, mentally cringing at the stupid question. What type of question was that?

He looked at me carefully, as if studying me. He looked at my pink stained lips before returning his gaze towards my eyes. "It's been good, I guess. How about yours? I see that you're still with Josh." He mumbled something else but I didn't catch it.

"It's been great! I recently found out I'm going to be an older sister!" I say excitedly with a smile. He nods.

"Leona, I-" he said before getting cut off by my mother. I looked away and turned my attention from Caleb to my mom who was at the end of the table again.

"Okay! Now, we're going to play the bottle game. We'll give you a baby bottle with an alcoholic drink inside, or if you decide not to drink alcohol we have apple juice. After we give you a bottle wait to start and once we say GO, you drink the bottle as fast as you can! Whoever finishes the whole bottle first, wins!" She says. She asks everyone who's going to play.

A couple minutes later 5 men and 3 women decided to play including me. My mom really didn't care if I drank alcoholic drinks, as long as I'm not driving or at a friends house, she's fine. Josh, Caleb, my dad, a guy named Joseph, another guy named Jack, two girls named Destiny and Andrea and I played the game.

"Go!" My mom yelled.

We all began drinking the bottle. It burned my throat as I drank. I took a break, noticing that Caleb was close to winning. Everyone started to cheer like it was a football game. I nibbled off part of the rubbery material on the cap making a hole. Tilting the bottle the drink came pouring out smoothly and fast. In less than a second I finished the drink before anyone else did. I grabbed a lime and squeezed it into my mouth. Everyone cheered for me as I won the game. I smirked. I won, and my dad lost! I began laughing at my dad. We all laughed.

"You men really thought you were going to win!" Janice laughed.

Luckily, I ate a lot of grease before drinking. If I hadn't I'd probably be drunk. But no, I'm sober.

And a sober Leona is a half crazy Leona.

Oh boy.
