Loving you

Luca.

Lunch time.
I sit down at the foldable lunch table with Ella and Annie and some other people I don't really know very well. I check my phone and have three picture from my mom of Giulietta. I screenshot them and send them to Enzo and begin to eat my lunch. "So Jasmine, are you busy after school? The three of us have been invited to Luca's to hang out at his pool. If your not busy?" Asks Ella while passing me a cup of ice water.
"Umm I'll have to check with my mom it should be okay." I smile. I have to go home and pump for Giulietta then feed her and be back for my mom going out to work. All while not mentioning to my friends that I'm a mom. "What time are you going there at?"
"Probably around 4:30 latest 4:45." Confirms Ella.
"Okay yeah I'll check with my mom and can you pick me up at 4:45. I'll go and call her." I say standing up to go and call my mom.
"Hey mom I've been asked to go to a friends house later on. I'm calling to check if it's alright for you to look after Giulietta." I question playing with my long blonde hair waiting on a response.
"Yeah that's okay come home and see Giulietta then you can come home In time for me to go to work." Sings my mom hanging up.
I sit back down at the table. "So my mom says it's fine to go... who even is Luca. I haven't herd yous mention him." I ask in all seriousness since I am now going to his house.
"Oh my god.. you must have seen Luca. He's the hottest guy in school. How have you not met him." Swoons Annie moving her hands from her face in shock.
"Oh I didn't know I guess Ill just have to meet him." I smile. "Okay I have to go speak to my teacher I'll see you at the end of the day."

"Mom, mom I'm back." I check the living room and it's empty, the kitchen is also empty. "Mom" I shout walking upstairs. I go into my room and see Giulietta asleep in her Moses basket and my mom asleep on the old brown rocking chair. They are both sound asleep so I decide to pump while I have the chance. After about ten minutes of pumping I have filled enough for a bottle and my mom starts to wake up. "Oh your back. Sorry I fell asleep." Explains my mom slowly getting up from the chair.
"It's fine I've just pumped and was going to get Giulietta and put the milk in the fridge. Ive got 45 minutes until I leave." I explain sealing the bottle of milk and backing up the pump.
"I'll put this away you just get ready and feed Gigi." (Gigi= Giulietta's nickname) Smiles my mom leaving and closing the door behind her. I couldn't have done this without her, being a mom I mean. When I found out I was pregnant I didn't want to tell her because I didn't want to disappoint her however I knew I had too. She's been my biggest supporter my whole life and now she's helping me out with my daughter. I check my phone for the wether app and see it's meant to be reasonably hot till later on tonight. I put on some roll on deodorant so Gigi won't inhale it. I then pick out my favourite dandelion yellow bikini out and put it on placing shorts and a large blush pink t-shirt on top. Considering I just had a baby 6 weeks ago my stomach has pretty much went back to how it was before, which I'm surprised about. I sit down on my bed and check the time- 4-10- I have 35 minutes until Ella and Annie will be outside and if I'm honest I'm really looking forward to it. When I was pregnant I never got asked to do much so I spent a lot of time with family but now I'm being included again and I like it. As I begin to lose myself in my thoughts the cry of my baby fills the room. I stand up and look at her little self. Such tiny hands and feet and well everything. He blonde hair almost not noticeable but just like mine, and slightly tanned skin just like her dads. I pick her up and begin to feed her straight away because I know that's what she wants. While I'm feeding her for the first time she holds onto my finger only for a little while but she definitely done it. I just stare at her in complete awe. I catch myself doing that a lot but I cant help it. Until I feel the pillow next to me begin to vibrate and I am shaken from my trance to pick it up. -Annie- "Hey jas we're going to be five minutes early but we can just wait outside if you want. Also what time are you to be back for."
"Okay I might be ready but maybe not... I think 8:15 but I can just get an Uber back it's okay." I laugh just so they know I'm not being rude.
"Okay yeah great I'll go just now and beep the car when we're outside. Can't wait to see you." Sings Annie just as she hangs up.
25 minutes later I go downstairs and my mom and older sister Kate are here. "Mom I'll be home for 8:15 so don't give her her 8:30 bottle I'll just feed her when I'm back."I explain handing my now sleep baby to my sister just as I hear the beep of a car.
"I gotta go. Thank you so much, both of you... I love you." I whisper as I kiss the top of Gigi's head and grab my back and keys and walk out the house as my phone begins to ring -Enzo-. I answer as I get into the car. "Hey Enzo." I Smile even though I know he can't see it. "How's Giulietta I didn't get anymore pictures or a FaceTime so thought I'd call." He Explains.
"Yeah no that's fine. We're all doing well and she's asleep... I'm with some friends just now can I give you a call later?" I ask clicking in my seatbelt since I forgot when I first got in
"Sure that's fine. Bye Jas and have some fun." He laughs and hangs up. I know where he's coming from. I didn't do anything for the last 8 months so I think it's well deserved.
Now my phones away Annie spins her head round and Ella laughs. "So who was that... Enzooo." She questions pointing and making funny faces.
"Yeah Enzo's a friend from home. He became like family really. We aren't dating." I reassure the girls and they laugh.
"Okay Well since you don't have a boyf why don't we try and set you up with Luca. Ohhhhh." Shrieks Ella while turning up the music.
