School. I had forgotten how much it annoyed me. I blow my bangs from my face, walking towards the staircase. Being pregnant ha set me behind in school a bit, but I was determined to catch up. Don' think I had ever been this focused about school before. I laugh softly to myself, thinking what Remus would say if he could see me now.
Turning the corner, I drop my books, catching sight of myself in a mirror on the wall.
"Oh, wow. I've really let myself go."
I knew that having a baby would mean putting on some weight, but wow.
I run my hand through my hair,"Way to go MJ." I murmur, picking my books up.

I walked along the halls at the school. The man with teh bead had said I could wander anywhere I'd like fore a while.
So I guess I was going to.
Need to elarn his name...
I see a girl drop all her books and lean down and pick up the stray one she had dropped. "Here you go.." I say to her holding teh book out to her.

"Apparently." I tell her and try and think of a shortened version. "Our mum sent her to live with our dad right before I was born, then she had run away to Ireland, so I haven't seen her...Ever." I chuckle softly. "You know her?"

"Yeah, she had a kid with one of my best mates." I nod,"Actually, think she's looking after my baby as well, boyfriend doesn't think I know he drops him off for a bit after I go to school or work."

I chuckle softly then I relize what she had said. "Wait, what?" I question "She has a kid?" I ask her again needing to hear the statment again jsut to make it sink in.

I blink laughing softly. "Wow.." I grin. "Just had a boy." I tell her. She didn't seem the type to be judgemental. Or at least not to much.

"Jake Ryan Baker-Harpo." I say with a proud grin. I would have never thought I'd be this happy or proud to have a baby.

"Yeah, I tried that." I stop, not wanting to relive the reason."Only cos I was suppose to have twins and my boyfriend wasn't sticking around to help."

"I never told him...But he found out. Somehow." I tell her, "I would have told him but he found out before I could. He understands now...was a bit upset but he's okay."

"Yeah we're together again." I tell her. "Him and I are...well frankly we're terrified. We have no clue at what to do. We couldn't even buy diapers without freaking. "
