HER
I already practiced that like 45 times before I went to sleep last night and I must say I nailed it. I already had the perfect school in mind for her. When we got there I held her hand as we got a tour around the school. Ava loved it just as I had predicted and she sat to take the exam since she was under-aged. I sat outside the office while she was taking it, give or take 37 minutes after it was reviewed she was granted admission. She wanted to start class immediately so I left her there but she looked sad when I told her I couldn't come to pick her in the afternoon but cheered up when I told her that Tristan would be the one to come receive her from school and he would bring her to my work place.
I got to the company at around 10:17am with sad spirits because although I knew she had to start school I wanted to hold onto her for about a week or so. I walked towards the general elevator passing the private one, although I was the big boss, it didn't feel right for all my employees to take a crowded elevator while I take a private one. When I got upstairs my brother was already in a meeting with some people.
I was going to join him but I decided against it. I stayed in my office going through some files.
HIM
HOW DARE SHE!!?! Who does she think she is? I was fuming by the time she left the house and what angered me the most was the fact that she was right about the evidence stuff and that meant I have to take her out this evening. I walked into the kitchen to get some coffee before I left. I don't usually have time to cook for myself before I go to work. When I entered the kitchen, I saw a plate of bacon, eggs, baked beans, toast and a cup of coffee at the side. I shook my head in annoyance, there was no way I was going to eat what that cunning conniving cheat made but my stomach had other ideas. Before knew what I was doing I was eating the last piece of toast completely clearing the plate and downing it with coffee. I was angry at myself for eating the food but my stomach felt content.
I went to work in a bad mood, firing 3 people in the first one hour I got there and everyone knew to stay clear of me for the rest of the day.
She wants to go to the amusement park? I'll take her to the amusement park. She'll have a real good time at the amusement park. I'll make sure of it. (EVIL LAUGHTER)
HER
I had just come out of the meeting exhausted and in need for my baby. As if on cue the elevator dinged and in came Tristan carrying Ava at his side and I immediately rushed over to give her a hug and she responded immediately.
"How was your day honey?" I asked her when I released her from a rib crushing hug. She smiled ad started relaying her day to me including her new friends - Lily Tucker-Pritchett and Joe Pritchett they are related but its complicated. I told my brother to take over for the rest of the day while Ava, Tristan and I went out for ice cream from Tristan's Ice-cream palour.
It was soooooooooooo good. If we keep this up we are gonna be spending a lot on dentist bills. Tristan promised to babysit and he said he was taking her to the zoo later in the day. I went home to get dressed up for my date. I wasn't dressing to impress anyone other than me.
I wore a pair of white ripped jeans, a black top, a pair of wedge sneakers, comfy but awesome
I did a fishtail braid with my hair
I wouldn't want to toot my own own but I looked good.
At seven on the dot the doorbell sounded and I smiled to myself, I guess I won this round. I opened the door and there stood Paxton in all his glory. His face held a smile that seemed too bright to be real so when he stretched his hand out for mine I took it with caution and he led me to the car. Once we were on the road the first thing he said was "You look quite nice tonight" with his eyes still on the road. I recoiled in shock and shook my head to make sure I wasn't hearing things and when we reached a red light he asked if I wanted to AUX and I connected the cord to my phone and played my 'never get tired of ' playlist and Freaky Friday started to blast through the speakers. I turned the speakers up and started to sing along.

I told him I'm his biggest fan yeah (yeah)
Got all these hoes in my DM (yeah, I do, hold up)
Holy s**t, I got a kid (oh!)

I can't believe that it's freaky Friday
Yeah it's Freaky Friday
I'm in Chris Brown's body
I drive his Ferrari and I'm light-skinned black
I felt his gaze on me and turned to look at him but he wasn't looking at me so I was probably imaging it. By the time I had focused back on my music the song had changed and I continued singing along.
I hope someday
We'll sit down together
And laugh with each other
About these days, these days
All our troubles
We'll lay to rest
And we'll wish we could come back to these days
These days
These days, these days
These days, these days
[Dan Caplen & Jess Glynne:]Three years of ups and downs
Nothing to show for it now
And I know it ain't pretty when the fire burns out
Calling me when I'm drunk
Remind me of what I've done
And I know it ain't pretty when you're trying to move on, yeah
I hope someday
We'll sit down together
And laugh with each other
About these days, these days
All our troubles
We'll lay to rest
And we'll wish we could come back to these days, these days
The car jerked to a stop and the music went off causing an automatic pout to form on my face but it brightened when I saw the amusement park in front of me.
I always came here with my mum, the sudden memory of her made a stray tear escape from my eye but I quickly wiped it away. I saw Paxton looking at me with a weird look in his eye but I practically jumped out of the car to avoid questioning and headed towards the park with him trailing behind. I got to the gate and paid the entrance fee for both of us. This was going to be an interesting night.
