Alic's POV:

I pulled in the front of the candy shop. "MOMMY! MOMMY! WERE HERE!" She screamed. She's to adorable. I got out of my car and ran to the side and got Zoey out. I grabbed her hand once I put her down. We walked inside the deserted candy shop. It's always empty. I don't know why it's like a wonderland here! Filled from top to bottom with candy and toys...I mean if I was a kid I would be here 24/7. I smiled at the old lady behind the counter. "Hi how are you." I smiled to her. " I'm good. I'm Jean, is nice to meet you." she said. I like her already, she has a kind smile and light blue eyes that have delight in them. "I'm Alic and this is my daughter Zoey." I introduced. Zoey waved. "Hi Zoey, what brings you here today?" Jean asked. "It's my 3rd birthday and mommy promised to take me to the candy shop!" she said with a big smile. Oh she just melts my heart. Jean smiled. "She did? Then you better hurry up, I gotta leave soon." Jean said. Zoey looked at me and quickly ran off to fill up 3 candy bags. What? She turned 3 so she gets 3. "Why do you have to leave so soon I thought this place don't close till 6pm?" I asked. "Oh yea well my grandson and some of his friends are coming in." Jean said. "Oh how old is he?" I asked. "He's 17." Jean smiled. This women is filled with so much joy and love. I wish my grandma was like that, but no I have an old bag that only bitches all the time. "Really?! What's his name?" I asked. I'm not trying to be nosy. It just I don't know what to really talk about, so I kept the subject on her grandson. "Nash Grier...you probably heard about him, he's famous on on what ever that social web site is." She said rolling her eyes. I froze as soon as she said Nash. Nash....Is it the same Nash Grier from high school.I haven't seen Nash since I left. Nash was my 2nd best friend. He was always there for me. "Mommy! Hello... Mommy!" Zoey yelled trying to get my attention. "Huh? Oh yes Zoey?" I said bending down to her level. She smiled. "I have one bag." She said holding the bag up. I smiled back at her. "That's great now fill up the other two. Hurry...okay Zoey?" I said. She nodded and ran off. I really wanna get out of here before Nash comes.

It's been 10 minutes and she's still filling up the other bag. On the inside I'm freaking out. I really don't wanna be here when Nash shows up with some friends. What if he has Matt. Oh no that would be bad. I got brought out of my thoughts by the bell on the door. I turn around fastly. What if it's Nash. Nash from Highschool. I can't face them. "He grams, I'm here." I heard the person say...Well Nash. "Hey Nash!" Jean yelled. She came out from behind the counter so I'm guessing they hugged. "Who's this?" Nash asked. Oh no I can't. "Oh this lovely girl is Alic, and her daughter is somewhere around here." Jean said. "Alic come meet Nash." Jean added. I'm stuck now. I knew this day was coming. I took a deep breathe and turned around. I looked at Nash. Yup this is defiantly Nash from High school. The smile on his face soon disappeared and a questioning look appeared. "Alic...Is that you?" He asked. Really...Did he really just ask that. "No I'm a monkey... Yes it's me." I said laughing. "Oh my... You changed so-" he got cut off by Zoey. "Mommy! I filled all 3." She said jumping up and down. I smiled. She always lightens the mood. "That's good baby girl." I bent down to her ear and whispered. "Now go pick out a toy...hurry!"I said. She looked at me with wide eyes. "Candy and a toy?!" She asked with a surprised look. I laughed. "Yes now go pick out a toy princess." I said as she ran of again for like what the fourth time? I turned back to Nash. He was shocked. "You have a baby?" He asked. I bite my lip.

Do I tell him? No, I can't he might tell Matt. Matt can't know. Not now at least..."Yes I do." I simply replied. He looked me in the eyes. "Who's the father?" He asked. He had a blank look. Nash knows what happened between Matt and I. Over the months he was the first to notice I was growing a stomach, so I think he already has an idea of who the father is. I can't tell him...He will tell Matt. "I...Ma....I d-don't know." I stuttered out. He shook his head. It was silent. Jean is pretty confused right now. She doesn't have a clue about anything. "Don't...tell Matt I'm here." I said breaking the silence. Nash just shook his head. What's his problem? Nothing happened to him. "What's your problem?" I snapped. He clenched his jaw. "Me and you both know Matt is the father...I'm not dumb Alic. I know Matt was your first and I know you. I mean look at her Alic." He said referring to Zoey. "She looks just like Matt and you can't deny that. Why didn't you tell Matt?" He asked. I hated his tone. He's almost yelling and Nash never yelled at me. "Because Nash I knew how much he wanted in life! He wanted to be an actor and become famous, he can't do that if he's paying for Zoey all the time!" I yelled. Nash looked down, regret filling his eyes. "I'm sorry for yelling at you." I nod. Not really wanting to talk to him.

"Mommy?" I heard Zoeys little voice say. I looked away from Nash to look down at Zoey. "Yes honey?" I asked and turned toward her. "What's wrong?" She said hugging my leg. I picked her up. "Nothing is wrong, it's just mommys really tired." I said smiling stiffly. "Hey how about we go home and we plan your birthday party ? We can invite Aunt may, uncle Tim and everyone." I said smiling. She looked excited. "Yeah and we can have it princess decoration because I'm your princess!" She clapped. I seriously love her. "Who is he?" She whispered while pointing at Nash. "He's mommy's friend. Say hi to Nash." I said. "Hi Nash! I'm Zoey." Zoey smiled. Nash smiled back. "Nice to meet you Zoey." Zoey giggled. "NASH WHERE ARE YOU DUDE!" I heard someone yell as they entered the shop. I looked toward the door and my smile dropped. I missed this person more than anything. He was my best friend since 3 rd grade.

It was.....
