apartment.”
    “Great. We will stop and grab a pizza. I’m starving,” Alicia said.
    Madison looked at her. “You feel ok? You are eating a lot lately.”
    She gasped. “Are you calling me fat?”
    “No! I’m just making an observation.”
    Alicia looked at Amber. “Thank you for all your help today. I will be in touch with all the details.”
    “Thank you!” She waved as she went back behind the counter.
    Madison followed Alicia to her car. “I’m sorry, Alicia. I wasn’t calling you fat.” She got into the car and reached for the seat belt.
    Alicia sighed and started the car. “I know you weren’t. You can’t tell your brother but I think I’m pregnant.”
    Madison gasped. “What!”
    “Yeah, I’m a couple weeks late. I have a doctor’s appointment tomorrow. I don’t want to tell him until I know for sure.”
    She nodded. “I won’t say anything. Wow, I’m going to be an aunt.”
    Alicia smiled. “And you will be the best aunt in the world. This child is going to love you.”
    Madison started to cry. It was at that moment that she finally felt as if she was part of a family. “You and Carter will be incredible parents.”
    Alicia wiped her eyes. “No crying yet. We don’t know for sure.”
    She nodded as Alicia pulled onto the street and headed towards the pizzeria.
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
     
    CHAPTER FOUR
     
    A few hours later, Madison and Alicia collapsed onto her living room furniture and took a break. The apartment was organized, cleaned and unboxed.
    “Thank you Alicia, it really does look great around here.”
    “Not a problem.” She looked down at her phone. “It’s Carter.” She disappeared onto the balcony to take her phone call.
    Madison turned on the television as her phone rang. “Hey Hunter.”
    “Hey gorgeous, how was your day?”
    “It was good. I picked out my dress for the wedding.”
    “That’s great. I think Carter is taking the guys next weekend to get all the measurements for the suits.”
    “That sounds like fun.”
    Hunter laughed. “We will see about that. I put the tickets for tomorrow night at will call. There are two of them so if it doesn’t work out with Alicia, don’t worry about it. I have a feeling she will be in your parents’ suite anyways.”
    Madison groaned. “I forgot about that.”
    “Don’t worry about it, Maddy. They are down the hall. You don’t even need to see them.”
    “I know. I will just feel guilty if I don’t at least say hi.”
    “You shouldn’t feel guilty about anything, Madison! They are the ones who didn’t treat you properly! They are the ones who denied you the love that you deserved!”
    Madison started to cry as she stood up and ran into Alicia as she walked back into the apartment. “What’s wrong, Madison?”
    She shook her head as she walked in the kitchen.
    “I don’t mean to upset you, honey. I really didn’t but your parents are a sore subject with me.”
    “I know they are Hunter but they are still my parents. I’m trying to move on but it’s hard.”
    “I love you and I’m just looking out for you.”
    Madison took a deep breath and smiled. “I love you too. I will see you tomorrow night, ok?”
    “Are you mad at me?” he quietly asked.
    “No, I can never be mad at someone for speaking their mind especially when they are just protecting me.”
    “See you tomorrow.” They hung up and she leaned against her kitchen wall.
    Alicia came over and hugged her. “Did you want to ride with me tomorrow afternoon?”
    Madison nodded. “That would be great. Are my parents going to be there?”
    She nodded. “Of course but you don’t have to see them. Just enjoy being with Hunter’s family. They love you and I know his mom is dying to see you again.”
    Madison smiled. “Ok.”
    Alicia left shortly after and Madison cooked herself a small dinner. The sun was setting as she lit the candles on the
