The new girl

Chpt: 29

We felt the same way after all this time apart but things wouldn't just go back to normal. We had to make things work first. "Lay, what's the baby's name?" He asked. I turned away kinda nervous. "Well I didn't name her, I wanted to let you help me name her." He seemed taken off guard but then he started laughing. "So what have you been calling her." he smiled. "Uhh baby girl, or baby." He smiled. "Well you have any ideas?" Of course I did. "Alicia and Autumn." He smiled ear to ear. "How about both? Alicia Autumn." He actually was right, it sounded pretty together. "That's perfect."

We talked about things that have took place over the last year and a half. He took the fb scholarship and going to the state college which is luckily in this city. He told me how his parents took me leaving and our friends. I told him about beau and his family. We talked about how we missed each other and considered getting in touch. We talked for hours but it got late and I knew I couldn't stay.

"Landon it's late I think I should go." Even though I didn't want to I knew his parents wouldn't want me to stay. "I don't want you to go. You should stay, cancel the hotel and stay here." I was taken back by his words. "What About your parents?" He rolled his eyes. "I don't give a f*ck  about them. I want you and Alicia here, y'all can stay in the guest house and tomorrow we'll talk to my parents." I smiled. "Are you sure?" "I've never been more sure of anything." We went to the hotel and picked up the rest of me and Alicia's things then headed back to his house.

After putting our things in the guest house landon left a note for his parents saying he was sleeping in there for some stupid reason. "Don't you think they'll come check on you?" I asked. "No, they've become pretty distant after I distanced myself from them, when you left." I looked down thinking about how hurt he must've been when I left. "Hey, your back now and that's all that matters laylay. It's alright." His words still managed to comfort me.
   We set up Alicias crib and I fed her before rocking her to sleep. Landon already began forming a bond with her. He's beginning to fall in love with her just as I did since the day she was born. We didn't stress anything else we put her to bed and layed on the couch talking until we both fell asleep.
