its been about a week since ive arrived home from portsmouth, me and Mase have talked every now and again on the phone, we were making it work to say the least. i'll admit i have started to feel something for mase, but it could be because of the baby, and for now at least i will continue to blame it on little grape

today i had a day off, so i decided to go out and meet with Amelia since it had been too long since ive seen her, originally Jade was meant to come, but in the end she couldn't get the day off so it was just me and dimz

i drive to the nearby starbucks where we agreed to hang out

"DIMZZZ" i shout running up to her

"LOTTIE, its been wayy too long"

"this is very overdue"

"agreed"

we take our orders and sit down at a table

"so, how's life, you never actually told me about your date with mason"

"oh yeah, that, you could say it went a bit too well"

"what do you mean, did you sleep with him"

i nod

"oh my gosh, i fucking told you"

"im pregnant though dimz"

"OH, i didn't see that coming though"

"yeah ive barely known for 3 weeks, im about 10 weeks along now"

"have you told mason"

"yeah, we're working it out"

"how did telling your family go, especially Trent and Jamie"

"well my parents and Amy took it quite well, so did his parents, trent should be here tommorow so thats that, but i have no clue about Jamie, i can't be arsed to drive all the way to glasgow, besides he's not going to take it well is he"

"tell him over the phone"

"nah, he'll get even more furious if i don't tell him in person"

"lottie, your literaly the one who told me this, if its not going to kill you then dont stress it"

"yeah but Jamie could kill me"

"being realistic char, he's not going to kill his own sister is he"

"yeah, your right, but i still don't feel like driving to glasgow"

"train maybe"

"fine you've got me dimz, im going to glasgow"

after finishing our drinks, we part our ways and i decide to call mase to tell him about my decision to go to glasgow next week

"hey mase"

"hey lottie"

"so ive kinda booked a train ticket to glasgow for this monday"

"whats in glasgow"

"my brother Jamie, i still haven't told him"

"do you want me to come?"

"no mase, you've got a game to play wednesday"

"i can ask coach for a rest"

"mason you are not coming with me to glasgow"

"fine"

"also Trent is coming tommorow, he's got rehab sessions in london till sunday evening so he's staying with me, so be at mine at like 5 tommorow we probably should tell him"

"yeah, sure ill be there, also ive got a game on sunday against newcastle do you want to come?"

"sure, why not"

"okay, ill get you and trent a ticket with me tommorow"

"damn trent isnt going to hear the end of my nick pope jokes"

"those jokes are so childish yet i still somehow laugh at them"

"were all children at heart mase"

"i can agree,  i would love to speak to you for a little longer Lottie, but i have to go or else tuchel is going to be fuming"

"alright, i'll see you tommorow mase"

"see you lottie"

.

next day...

im already awake just finished being sick, when trent is at my doorbell at around 9

"morning lottie"

"morning trent" i say letting him in and slopping myself on the couch

"you look tired"

"bit ill, honestly i might go back to sleep ive been up since 7, you know where the guest room is, and the remotes are all on the shelf, watch tv do whatever just for the love of god don't come near the kitchen you'll burn the place down"

"are you sure your fine? your never up at 7?"

"ive just got the flu, look ill be fine when i get some sleep, if im not up by 1, then just wake me up carefully"

"okay, get some rest then"

"also when are you going out?"

"im free today, ill be at the center tommorow mostly"

"kay also are you staying past sunday?"

"nah last session is sunday evening"

"okay because im going to glasgow on monday"

"glasgow?"

"jamie"

"ohhh"

"yea anyways please let me sleep and dont mess the place up"

"okay goodnight"

"its not really night but sure"

.

i take a really since nap replenishing the sleep i'd lost, and i wake up at quarter to noon, i prepare some omeletes for trent and i, who kept complaining how he was hungry, and honestly i felt like some food too

"i don't understand how your eating peanuts with your eggs lottie" trent says staring at my plate as i did my editing

i simply shrug and point the packet towards him offering him some "its not bad you know"

"no thanks"

"also ive got someone coming round at 5, so don't change into your pajamas early"

"who"

"just a friend"

"jade?"

"no she's got work today"

"kay"

.

at just around five, i hear the bell go off, and sure enough its mase

"heyyy" i smile opening the door just enough so trent can't see

"hey lottie" mase smile

"mate mate thats mason, i know that voice too well"

"hello trent"

"so you guys are friends now"

"you could say that"

"mhm"

mase plops himself next to me and puts his arm around my shoulders

"so im guessing my date idea went well" trent says

"i hear from some it was phil" mase argues

"no it was me" he quickly says

"trent we kinda need to tell you something please dont be mad" i say

"what, your together? its obvious"

"no were not together, im pregnant"

his eyes widen in realisation then starts choking on the food he had in his mouth for a second

"here is the part where i teach you two what a condom is" he manages to laugh out

"bit late for that mate" mase says

"so your not mad?" i ask

"nooo, im literaly the one who set you up"

"well your basically going to be an uncle now" mase points out

"i already am but i dont mind it again"

"well thats better than what jamie is going to say" i sigh

"oh shit jamie" trent realises

"yeah thats why im going glasgow"

"oh yeahh thats why, i guess thats why you were sick this morning too, does that mean you have a bump now?" he rants on like a child

"well, im only 10 weeks along its not much" i say getting up and lifting my sweater to show the boys

"do you want a boy or a girl"

"i don't mind either" mase says

"yeah as long as grape is healthy ill be happy"

"oh its got a nickname, grape, i like that one"

"mase's idea that one"

we all continue to chat and mess about all night, until it gets late and mase goes home, and me and trent head off to sleep
