Friend-Zoned

Part 35

2 Months Later//

I've switched to online schooling. Ethan and I agreed he'd pay child support. He just... he doesn't want to ever see her.

---

" Ella, come here.", Jackson called me over and I ran down the stairs.

" What?-", I sighed and my eyes widened. I felt my eyes sting and my jaw dropped.

A crib. A cute little crib. Painted a light grey and it's covers a pastel pink, covered in designs.

" Do you like it? I made it-", I ran up to him and pressed our lips together.

" I love it."

" Jack?!", I skipped down the stairs and ran up to him.

" What are you okay?!", Jackson gave me a worried expression.

" Give me your hand!", I smiled and he slowly, weirded out-ly, raised his hand.

I pulled his hand and placed it on my stomach. His face lit up and he smiled.

" She's kicking!"

---

" You're huge!", Avery laughed at me and I rolled my eyes.

" I can fit into this stupid dress just give me a second...", I jumped in hopes of magical sliding perfectly into the dress.

" Got it!", I smiled and Avery laughed.

" Help me zip?", I asked grabbing my necklace.

" Where's Jackson taking you anyways?", Avery raised a brow as she zipped up the dress.

" Some fancy diner. I don't know though, he said he'd text me the address later."

" He's not taking you there? Why are you meeting there?", Avery took a sip of her smoothie.

" He had work and then said he had a huge surprise for me and had to pick it up.", I smiled as I took one last look at myself in the mirror.

" How do I look Avery?", I smiled turning to her.

" Beautiful."

---

I looked at the text from Jackson showing me the address.

" Don't be late😉", I read the text and started the car.

---

I arrived at a huge fancy diner, chandeliers hung from the ceilings, huge windows with long, beautiful, designed curtains.

It's perfect...

" Table for two please.", I asked and a waitress led me to a table.

I ordered a drink and looked around, admiring every new thing I saw, in awe of everything.

I pulled out my phone and texted Jackson.

" Here❤️" I texted and put my phone down. I saw him read it.

But he didn't reply.

Maybe he's just still trying to surprise me...
