.Layla.

I sat in class the next day and couldn't stop yawning. We'd looked at three houses with the realtor, and went out to eat afterward. It was kind of late when we got home, but Carl really wanted to have sex, and of course I was happy to oblige.

I couldn't believe that in less than a month, we would have a baby. And a house. I was barely twenty, and I was about to do things most people my age weren't even thinking about. They were traveling the world and going to Lollapalooza and Instagramming their every move.

I felt my phone vibrate, and I surreptitiously pulled it out to see a text from Debbie. It was like she had read my mind.

Why did I have to stalk you on fb to learn that your birthday is in 2 weeks??!

I smirked and glanced around before replying.

Because I know you Debbie Gallagher. You would make a big deal when it isn't needed.

Well shit does Carl even know?!

Not that I know of.

Girl that is not playing fair!
If you don't tell him I will.
I mean it.

If I tell him will you promise not to make it a thing?

Omg who tf doesn't want to celebrate their bday??

Someone who's turning 20 when her bf is 18.
I won't even be able to claim I'm a teenager anymore.

Omg knock it off.
You are young and completely gorge.

Also someone who is super.
fucking.
pregnant!

Damnit Layla.

I sighed and looked up. My professor seemed to be on to me.

Sorry Debs. Gtg...ttyl.

This isn't over!

I slipped my phone back into my pocket and resumed studying. Finals were coming up faster than I could believe. I would be relieved when they were over, but I was going to be totally stressed until then.

At least I had a great stress reliever at home.

.....

.Carl.

When I checked my locker at lunch, I had several texts from Debbie.

Carl! Did you know Layla's bday is soon?
If you knew and didn't tell me...
But srsly did you know?
She doesn't want to do anything but we have to!

Oh shit. No, I had no idea.
Wtf why wouldn't she tell me?

She doesn't like that she's turning 20.

Why?

Apparently because her baby daddy is 18.

Ugh I'll be 19 in a few months.
She's not that much older.

Well you better do something for her.

Obviously.
Well hey I gotta eat and get back.

Ok ttyl

I wondered how I was going to play this. Do I confront her about it? Like, 'Hey, we've been together almost a year and you never told me when your birthday is?' Well, fuck, that may backfire, because I didn't exactly ask, did I?
