"yeah...okay...hmm" i lamely said into the phone. "carly don't worry he'll be fine, i promise" i reassured her. she sighed "thanks laura. i appreciate it." she said. "anytime babe. bye" i hung up.

my friend carly dropped her son off to my apartment so i can watch him while she goes on a date with her husband. i don't mind actually, i love kids.

he's only 2 years old so it wont be so hard. I picked him up from the playpen and smiled "hey there buddy" I smiled. he smiled for a few seconds, but then he started crying. I frowned and tried to remember what Carly told me to do if he cries.

if he cries, he either needs his diaper changed, or he wants to sleep, or he wants food or milk. or he just wants someone to cheer him up.

woah. how the hell am I gonna know what he wants. I sighed and walked to the kitchen. I carried him well and opened the baby food. I waited for him to open his mouth, but instead he just knocked it out of my hand. "defiantly doesn't want that" I mumbled.

I walked back to the living room and opened the mat and gently put him on It. I pulled down his pants and opened his diaper.

okay he defiantly needs a diaper change. while I changed his diaper, I distracted him so he could stop crying. "James" I smiled and nodded my head, just like how babies like it. he giggled and started playing with my face.

-

I put him in the middle of my bed just incase he tosses and turns. he was sleeping with a pacifier in his mouth. I silently awed. he's so adorable.

- 30 minutes later-

i walked to the door when i heard the doorbell ring. it was carly and jason (her husband). "hey guys" i said, and stepped aside so they could come in. "james is in my room, i'll go get him" i smiled.

i carried him over to them. jason took him and carly hugged me "thank you laurraaa" she squeezed me. i giggled "your welcome"

they took his stuff and left.

i grabbed my book and started reading it. it's called 'all the bright places'. it's an amazing book.

"rydel i don't know if-" she cut me off "laura please! just one show. i miss you so much" she said. "ugh fine!" i said. "YAY! see you tomorrow!" she said and hung up. i sighed. i'll have to see ross.

rydel wants me to come to one of their shows. i guess i have to go, it would be rude to say no for no reason.

i sighed and picked out an outfit so i wouldn't have to worry tomorrow.

the sweater is actually ross's sweater, so it's really big on me. i'm just gonna wear it cause it's really cold outside and i need something to keep me warm i guess.
