"I'm confused, I think you're thinking of someone else. Max would never do that," Adam stated and I shook my head.
"Same face, shirt, shoes, pants and necklace. Also same friends, Ross and Tim were with him," I replied crossing my arms. "Do you seriously not have anything else in your wardrobe?" Adam had a surprised expression on his face before turning to Max with a raised eyebrow. Max held a guilty smile while rubbing the back of his neck nervously.
"This true Max?" Adam asked.
"This was before I knew her and I was trying to be Ross' wingman," Max tried to defend himself and I scoffed before turning and going back to my office.
When I got to my office my phone started ringing.
"Hello?" I said bringing the phone to my ear.
"Hey! I was wondering if you could send me the address to your work again? We can meet up for lunch," I heard Tyson say on the other side of the call.
"Sure, I'll tell Em I'm expecting someone. Bye bear," I said into the phone, hanging up before he could say bye.
I get up from my desk and jog over to Em's desk. I keep my phone in my hand as I went towards the front of the offices.
"Hey Em?" I said walking over to her desk.
"Yeah?" I heard Em reply.
"I'm going out to lunch with my brother," I said and pulled out a picture of Tyson on my phone. "His name is Tyson, just let him in when he gets here please."
"Okay!" Em replied with a smile.
"Thanks!"

"And... export." I mentally sighed and sat in my chair, leaning back stretching.
"Hey Pix."
"JESUS CHRIST TYSON YOU SCARED ME!" I shouted pulling him into a hug. "Don't do that."
"Whatever, I've got your favourite thing in the world in the car," Tyson said smiling down at me.
CALUM!
"What are we waiting for?" I asked grabbing my small backpack and dragging Tyson out of my office. I grabbed Tyson's sleeve and dragged him back to the front desk to sign out for lunch. "Bye Em!"
"Bye Pixel, see you later," Em said as I pulled Tyson outside. I jogged over to the car, not caring that the parking lot was slippery, and opened the back door.
"Baby!" I pulled him into a hug he kept laughing.
"Mummy!" Calum grinned and hugged back. I kissed him on the check before getting into the back seat with him.
I buckled Calum into his car seat before putting on my seat belt.
"Where do you wanna eat for lunch?" Tyson asked peering in the rear view mirror, sitting in the drivers seat.
"I'm fine with whatever," I answered with a smile.

"Yo Adam! Do you know where Pixel is? I wanna apologize for my behaviour," I said standing in the door frame of Adam's office.
"Who are you and what have you done with the real Max?" Adam asked laughing. "On the real through, Em told me she went out for an early lunch," Adam replied and I sighed.
"Okay then, what are we doing for lunch anyway?" I asked and Adam shrugged. "Wanna see if the guys wanna go to the mall?" Adam asked and I nodded.

I dropped Calum off at the daycare with Tyson after lunch. The place was pretty nice and the owners there were so caring. Tyson really chose a good daycare for Calum.
"Thanks Tyson," I said quietly as we started driving back to the offices.
"For what?" Tyson asked confused, turning the steering wheel to the right.
"Helping me out with everything. Moving, Calum and motivating me to do something with my life," I said quietly facing Tyson.
"I look up to you, of course not physically," Tyson let out a chuckle when I hit his shoulder. "But actually you gave me a roof over my head when I had no one, food on the table and showed me how to be a stronger person. Forever I will be grateful to have an older sister like you."
"Don't sugar coat it, I know I'm not the greatest person but I try."
"You try? You are raising a little boy almost all by yourself! Are you kidding me? You're a strong, independent woman that don't need no man!" Tyson said and laughing.
"I knew you were going to do that right when you said 'strong'," I said laughing too.
Before we knew it, we pulled up to the offices and Tyson parked the car.
"Want me to show you around or do you just wanna go back to my house, study and pack up your things?" I asked stepping out of the car, hugging my jacket closer to my body.
"I wanna see the guys you're working with. You know, make sure they're treating you right," Tyson said as we started walking inside.
"Geez, you sound like an overprotective boyfriend," I said with a laugh.
"What? No! Gross!" Tyson said and started fake gagging.
"Awe screw you, Imma kick you outta my house now if you keep disrespecting me," I teased as Tyson held the door to the building open for me.
"Please no! It's almost Christmas, have a heart! And you haven't given me my plane ticket yet so..." I hit Tyson in the stomach before walking over to Em's desk.
"Em? Is it okay to show Tyson around the offices?" I asked and she shrugged.
"You'll have to ask Adam," Em said and I nodded, sending Adam a quick text.
"He said it's okay as long as he gets to meet Tyson," I said holding up my phone to Em and she nodded.
"Go on in then," Em said and I waved good bye, walking into SkyMedia.
"My office is over here," I said and Tyson raised an eyebrow.
"I know, I literally had to ask one of your coworkers to guide me," Tyson said and I shrugged.
"Meh. Your point is? I'm dropping my stuff of so I can show you around," I said opening my door. I stopped and immediately got annoyed, Tyson must of noticed as he started walking inside my office.
"Who are you and what are you doing in Pixel's office?" Tyson asked the red headed man sitting in my chair.
"I'm Max and I'm here to talk to Pixel, who are you?" Max asked standing up from my chair.
"Max this is Tyson, Tyson this is my coworker Max," I quickly introduced them while pushing Tyson behind me. "Don't start a fight," I whispered to Tyson. "What did you wanna talk about?"
"I wanted to apologize for my behaviour in the McDonalds. I-"
"So he was the one you told me about? The one that took your wallet?" Tyson started shouting.
"Yeah, I'm sorry about that I was-"
"Look here man, if I ever find you trying anything on Pixel. Let's just say you're going to regret it," Tyson said bringing his right fist into his left palm.
"If you let me fi-"
"Leave Pixel alone! She doesn't need other pieces of shit like you in her life!"
"IF YOU LET ME FUCKING FINISH!" Max shouted, anger clear as day in his voice. "I CAME HERE TO APOLOGIZE YOU SACK OF SHIT!"
Tyson went to get the first blow and Max and I pushed him back.
"What did I say?" I asked grabbing the collar of Tyson's shirt.
"Not to start a fight," Tyson said quietly.
"I can't hear you."
"AIE AIE CAPTAIN!" Tyson shouted and I heard Max snort from behind me. I facepalmed before sighing.
"Apologize to Max, Tyson," I said letting go of his shirt.
"Sorry Max," Tyson said and I turned to Max. He looked at me questioning. "Your turn."
"For what? He started it," Max said pointing to Tyson. I just rolled my eyes before cracking my knuckles. "Okay!" Max said raising his hands in surrender. "I'm sorry."
"Okay great!" I said clapping my hand together. "Since that's all sorted out, get out of my office Carrot-Top."
