“We did it!” Taylor ran up and gave me a hug as soon as we tossed our hats once the ceremony was officially over.

“Yes!” I hugged her. “Congratulations, graduate…”

“Congratulations yourself, graduate.” She leaned back from the hug and grinned. “We should probably find our hats…”

“Yeah.” I nodded. “I promised Charley she could wear it home—it was the only way I could convince her to give it back to me once we got here.”

“I still can’t believe you have a kid.” Taylor shook her head in disbelief. “I’ve known you for four years, and you never mentioned it!”

“I know.” I looked down and sighed. “I’m not ashamed of her. I love her to death! I wanted to tell you so many times, but after we had been hanging out for a while, I would have literally had to just blurt it out because we were talking about guys and—everything else but the fact that I was a single mom.”

“I get it.” She nodded. “You wanted to be a normal college student—there’s nothing wrong with that. I admire you for being able to balance everything like you did.”

“So, do you want to meet her?” I found my hat and picked it up.

“Absolutely!” Taylor nodded and grinned.

She wasn’t quite as interested in Victoria—probably because I had mentioned Taylor several times, so she knew we were friends.

“Alright, I should figure out where my family is.” Taylor looked around the gymnasium.

“Oh, my dad ran into a few people he knows from work. I think your mom was staying to be polite.” Victoria pointed them out.

Charley seemed happy to have my hat, so she was ready to go. Mom took her outside while I went over to meet Taylor’s mom and her little sister, Anna. Bryant pulled me aside once the introductions had been made and told me that Jon was there but had to leave because he got a phone call. I couldn’t help but smile. I wanted him to come, but we got distracted by other things and never got a chance to finish the discussion—part of that was my fault—I was the one that screwed up the Martin Construction account, even though I still couldn’t figure out how I made that mistake.

Luckily, Jon agreed to give me another chance—but I wasn’t sure Damien was going to trust me anytime soon. I would have plenty of time to obsess over that on Monday morning. Jon and I were going to
