Ally's POV:
Monday
The weekend was great, I spent the entire Saturday morning cleaning my apartment in case I have to move out soon then I hung out with Lance that evening. We have gotten a lot closer ever since Friday night; Saturday evening we flew to Las Vegas and went to a club. I enjoyed myself a lot, but we had to run because of the paparazzi, since he was Jacob's best friend they followed him as well.
Yesterday I called my parents and told them about a new job I'll be starting soon, they were happy. I went on the beach yesterday afternoon and enjoyed the sun and water; Lance had to go to Florida so he wasn't there with me, he'll be back tomorrow. Lance and I exchanged numbers on Saturday so we can always be in contact.
Today I'll be meeting up with Jacob again at his hotel conference room to go over the contract and sign it to make it official then tomorrow I'll be going for a medical check up. My period suppose to come in about twp week time so if I want to get pregnant this week is the perfect time.
It was currently 8:00 am, I don't have to be at the hotel until 10 am.
My phone rings, "hey", I said when I answered Lance.
"I hope I didn't wake you up", he chuckled.
"Not at all, I'm actually having a cup of coffee", I admitted as I sat by the counter.
"Nice, so how was your day yesterday without me?" I imagined him smirking right now.
"It was good, I went to the beach", I replied.
"Last night?"
"Watch a TV series until I fell asleep."
"When I'm back tomorrow, can we meet up for dinner at my place?" He asked.
"Sure."
"See you then."
I hung up.
I don't know if I want to get back into any relationship anytime soon, my ex hurt me badly and Lance was so much out of my league.
I decided to watch two episodes of a show before officially getting ready for the day.

2 hours later
"I'm glad you can make it and up for this as much as I am", Mr. Brown said when I entered the room.
"It's a job, isn't it?" I shrugged.
We took a seat next to each other by the large table.
"Where do we start?"
"I want to go over everything and make sure you agree with it and if you want anything to change", he stated and I nod, "but first, are you and Lance dating?"
I snorted, "dating? No."
"Good because I don't want any scandals especially if you go in public with a baby bump and is spotted being with Lance then when the baby is born and it magically appears with me."
I nodded, that will be one big scandal; dating Jacob's best friend and suspected to be pregnant with his baby, but turned out to be Jacob's own.
"I didn't say you can't date just try to keep a low profile until the baby is born."
For the next half an hour we went through the contract.
"Do you agree to move into my penthouse when you're almost seven months pregnant and attend all the birth classes I will be attending with you privately?" He asked.
I nodded.
"Do you agree to keep me updated of your whereabouts and follow the diet that the private doctor I hired give you to follow?"
I nodded again.
"Do you promise to keep this contract between us, my family and Lance, no one else?"
I nodded.
"Also, to keep out of the public eye once your bump is very noticeable?"
I nodded again.
"Also to accompany me whenever I call you if I need you to be with me?"
I nodded.
"Last, but not least do you agree to hand over the baby to me after the first hour of birth?"
I sighed, but nodded.
"Good then it's settle", he handed me the pen and I signed the dotted line then he signed.
"It's official Mrs. Anderson, you'll be my surrogate. You'll be moving into your new apartment by Wednesday for the latest and I'll be picking you up at 8 am to go to the private doctor I hired", he added.
"One question though?" I asked.
"Yeah?"
"Are you using my egg or?"
He sighed, "to be honest, I haven't thought about that."
"Will you be using your fiance's then?"
"She's not around and wouldn't be for a while so that's out of the question", he sighed, "tomorrow at the doctor, I'll know what I'm doing."
"What if I'm up to using my egg? It's my body after all and the baby will have parts of me as a reminder of your surrogate", I offered.
He nodded, "that's a great idea and thank you for giving up an egg."
"No problem, its the least I can do if I'll be living a life where I don't have to pay any bills", I chuckled.
"I just hope that my fiance will be happy when she returns and see our baby", he confessed.
"Maybe she will", I shrugged.
"Yeah, maybe."
"Here's my number whenever you need to contact me", he handed me his business card, "also I'm giving you the honor to decorate the baby's room", he added.
"Really?"
"It'll be your biological child as well, I think its fair", he shrugged.
"What if your fiance doesn't like it?" I I sighed.
"Then that's her problem because I want the mother of my child to leave something behind as a reminder to my child", he said and I blushed.
"If that's all", I stood up.
"I'll have men swing by tomorrow to start the moving process, if you want I can have you in the new apartment by tomorrow evening", he offered.
I did start packing so...
"Yeah that'll be great", I nodded that way I can be close to Lance.
"Good, your apartment will be a block away from where I live and you can always see Lance since he lived in downtown Los Angles", he explained.
"Shouldn't you be mad that I might be with your best friend?"
"No that's his business and you're a nice woman, I approve", he shrugged.
"If that's all I'm going now to go finish pack", I said.
"Sure, I'll see you tomorrow at 8 am sharp tomorrow morning", he nodded and I left.
******
I can't wait to see my new apartment, I hope it has a good view and a wide balcony along with a pool so I don't have to go out in public.
As I continued to pack my clothes, I put on the music on my phone and danced around the room. I only know this place for three months, but I'll still miss it.
I talked to my landlord already about my movement so she'll be here later to make sure I put everything away because on Friday there'll be someone coming to see the place. I can't believe she already got someone to come check out the apartment, I was lucky to get this one because all the apartments were being rented quickly.
As I finished ate lunch, my phone rang.
"Hey sis, what's up?" I asked.
"Hey Ally, you're still coming to our annual New Years party right?" She asked.
"Yes."
"Do you think you can talk to mom for me about something?" She asked hesitantly.
"What is it?"
"I been seeing this guy since the semester started and I like him a lot, can you tell her about him for me so she can break the news to dad before I give him home for Christmas?"
"Alice you're 21 years old, you're an adult. Dad can't anything if you're dating a guy and wants to bring him home, Steve had his girlfriend since he was in high school", I pointed out.
"Yeah, their junior year. Also, you brought a guy home your first year at university for the party", she added.
"We didn't last that long, but I didn't started to date again until last year three months into my senior year so it wouldn't be bad for you."
"You're the middle child, you get away with things and our parents just brush it off, me on the other hand I'm the baby in their eyes especially dad's", she sighed.
"Do you see yourself with this guy in three years?"
"What?"
"Yes or no?"
"Yes."
"Do you see yourself moving in with him after you graduate?"
"Yes."
"Do you actually see yourself being with him in the long run?"
She nodded.
"Then you have nothing to worry about with dad, he just wants the best for you but don't get pregnant before you finish university", I warned.
Dad will have her head and the guy's as well.
"All I'm concern about is being with him right now, pregnancy isn't even on my mind for a long time."
"Good keep it that way", I nodded.
"Thanks sis, I knew you would be cool with this unlike Steve."
"Steve will be a different story, he's more protective of you."
"I know and also the guy is studying computer and information sciences", she added.
"Aww he's a nerd just like you", I teased.
She laughed, "you're just jealous."
"Whatever", I hung up.
