Stay Away from My Friends

I really wish I was in LA with Emma and Vic. I know I couldn't though, the baby's due in three months and my boyfriend and I has been a little distant.
I called him again and this time he answered, "Hello?" Evan asked.
"Hey, can you come over? We need to talk." It was more of a demand than a request.
He gulped, "Sure."
After about thirty minutes Evan was here.
"Hey," he greeted.
"Hi," I said back, "Take a seat," I nodded my head to the couch across from the chair I was sitting in.
Evan sat on the couch and looked at me, "What do you need?"
"Why haven't you been talking to me that much lately?" I asked, already dreading the answer.
"Well, I don't think I'm ready to be a dad."
"Well this is partially your fault."
"I know," Evan said shyly. "Where's Nicole?"
"At her boyfriend's house."
Evan nodded.
"Look, Evan, this is your baby, too. You need to start taking responsibility."
"I know," he said, his voice getting caught in his throat.
"I think we should move in together."
"What?" Evan looked up at me, his eyes getting wide.
I nodded, "You heard me."
"Okay," Evan reluctantly said.

After a few more days I got all my stuff moved in at Evan's place. This wasn't quite as romantic as the way Vic asked Emma to move in with him. Speaking of Emma and Vic, how are they? I haven't talked to Emma in a week or two, so I grabbed my phone and called her.
"Hey," she answered.
"Hi. So how are things with you and Vic?" I asked.
Emma sighed, "He got in a car accident."
"Oh my God! How is he?"
"He broke his wrist and fractured two of his ribs."
"Oh my God! How's he doing?"
"Fine, but his pain killers are making him sick. He hasn't told me yet, but I can just tell."
"Aw," I said, "I moved in with Evan."
"You did?"
"Yeah, he's still a little awkward around me."
"When is the baby due?"
"Three months."
"Well, I'll be back by then."
"Back?"
"I still need to finish college."
"Oh right."
"I'm gonna dread telling Vic though."
"I would too if I were you."
We talked for a little more but I had to leave so we said our goodbyes and hung up.
Evan walked over to me, in our apartment.
"Hey," he said.
"Hey," I smiled. "Emma's boyfriend got in a car crash."
"Jordan?"
"No! They broke up like a month ago! She's in LA with her new boyfriend, Vic."
"When did this happen!?"
"Like three weeks ago!"
"Really?"
"Yeah! Remember when I said we were going to LA?"
Evan nodded.
"Well Emma met Vic at a club and he took her to his place and they... You know. Then I guess they fell in love or something."
"Oh. Wish I'd have known."
"Well Emma doesn't like you so it would make sense if she hasn't told you."
He rolled his eyes. "Why does Emma hate me?"
"I don't know, honestly."
"Well, I love you, no matter what."
Evan put his hand on my growing baby bump and smiled at me.
