"Hi Tay. How are you?"
"I'm great, and you?"
"Good. So, home from Christmas?"
"Yeah. We'll be going back just after New Years to finish the album. What about you?"
"Oh, I'm also home for Christmas. I'll be returning back to college soon."
"Cool."
"So, how is everyone?"
"We're all great."
Peta grinned at him.
"So, is Babsie pregnant again?"
Taylor smiled.
"No, they're not expecting her to get pregnant until, umm, February I think."
"Oh my gosh, those two are crazy."
"Yep. Not denying that."
"What about you and Rita?"
"No. I think Rita wants to wait about two years between children."
Peta nodded.
"Yeah, probably safer that way. What about Zac? He dating again yet?"
"Nope. I don't think he really wants to. He's still wearing his wedding ring."
"Really?"
"Well, kinda. He nearly lost it a couple of weeks ago, so he's strung it around a chain that he now wears around his neck. Never takes it off."
"Still caught up over Cassie huh?"
"Yep."
"I suppose I can understand, but it had been two years. And he's only, what 21?"
"Yeah, 21. Ahh, well, I'm sure he'll come around." Taylor leaned over. "But don't tell him I said that."
Peta grinned.
"My lips are sealed."
"So, are you planning on standing on the doorway all evening? Or do you want to come in?"
"Umm, I think I'll come in."
"Great."
Peta came in after Taylor ever-so-kindly held it open for her. After shutting it again, he led her into the dining room for dinner with everyone.
