A Plot? No :/

Teehee lots of plot points here

We approached a door and Camden knocked quietly.

"Hey, I brought visitors."

"Hey, Win. Hey, Noah, nice to see you again! We missed you." Zoe greeted. She held a little pink bundle in her arms.

I followed Winnie towards the bed. Winnie reached out and Zoe placed the small bundle into her arms.

"So, who's this?" I asked, smiling.

"This is Esther," Zoe grinned.

Winnie turned and handed me the baby. There's just something about holding a baby that is so soothing. All the thoughts plaguing your mind dissolve into nothing and all you're left with is the present moment. The moment with the baby. I rocked her for a little bit before handing her back to Winnie.

I went over and sat down next to Camden.

"Dude, when did you become a dad?"

"Uh, two days ago." He smirked at me.

"Well, yeah, but I mean I've known you since we were four years old. And last time I saw you, we were 16. When did we all grow up?"

"I don't know. Time just sorta flew by."

"Yeah. And it feels like I blinked and missed it. Sure I had my own fun at times in New York, but I feel like I've missed so much here. I was the outcast of the group who came in late and left early. You three were the unbreakable trio."

"You didn't really have a choice when you came to join the group and left, but you were never the outcast. We were all in it together. And we still are and I hope you'll stick around." He nudged my arm then looked at Winnie. He'd better not be suggesting what I thought he was suggesting.

"No. I mean, I'll stick around where I can. But I don't wanna hurt her again. Do you see how happy she is right now? I'm not going to barge in and ruin that. Besides, she's probably still upset about her ex-fiancé."

"Well, she's happy right now because she is holding a baby. Who wouldn't be happy?" He smiled. "But, I kinda get what you're saying. It was very sudden when you left, but I also know that it wasn't your fault. And I know that she knows that. And I think you'd actually be adding to that happiness, not destroying it. Also, her ex-fiancé was a total douche. He didn't treat her the way she deserved for even a second. And besides, they broke up like a year ago. I'm sure she's over him by now."

"Fine. But, she's my lawyer for Violet's trial and nothing else."

"Wait. What?"

Wow. I'd been down here for six months and really hadn't said a word to him? I explained how Violet had been caught and was being put on trial and Winnie was on prosecution and we'd been meeting up for the last few months trying as hard as we could to find as much evidence as possible to throw Violet in jail for what she'd done to me.

"Wow. When is the trial?" He shifted in his seat.

"Second week in October. So, it's coming up."

"Well, then what happens when it's over? You just... go back to New York?"

"No. I've had enough of that place for a while. I'm gonna try and get a better job and get a better house, and then y'know, just see what happens after that."

"Sounds like a good plan."

"Yeah. Alright, that's enough talk about me. What's been going on with you the past few years?"

"Well I mean, that," He gestured to Zoe and the baby. "That's been my life for the past three years really. Zoe and I both knew we wanted one, but decided to try and finish school first. We tried about a year after getting married, but with no luck. It kinda devastated us both for a while, but then we finally got lucky. Now we have Esther and it was pretty good timing. I just got my first teaching job for this school year, and Zoe became an RN in January, right before we found out."
