CHAPTER 5:

~~Girls Day Out~~

INTRO:

 I can't help but look at his toned chest, 

ABS

"Like what you see," he says

"No..."

"You can take a picture if you want," he says

"Piss off"

"Hey Avie language around the kids," he says

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

IT'S BEEN 2 weeks since we picked the kids up, and they have settled in perfectly and we have developed a good routine, Grayson has been with us most of the time and he hasn't spontaneously left, 

He started picking up some more shifts at the shop, and we agreed that once a week either he or I get to have girls or guys day last week it was Grayson's turn ironically, but this week it's my turn. 

Once all of the kids are down for their morning nap, I check my phone and dial Billies number, which is weird since I know her phone number off by heart

"Hey Girl," Billie says answering the phone

"Hey darl, what are you doing tomorrow," I ask Billie

"Uh not much, I have to get some more groceries, and Jamie wants me to paint her nails" Billie has a daughter named Jamie she's 7 and she also has a little boy Jackson who is 4.

"Okay would you like to have a little date with Lola and me- with Jamie of course"

"Yess" she squeals "I've been cooped up in the house, the only trips that I have done are to the kid's school and..." she starts rambling so I cut her off

"I'll meet you at your house tomorrow at 10," I say

"Okay, cool" she replies and I hear shouting the background

"I got to go," she says and hangs up on me 

"Alright then" I mutter to myself before placing my phone down

"I'm going out with Billie tomorrow," I say to Grayson as he walks down the stairs with a sleepy Ava in his arms, sucking her thumb, her head resting in the crook of his neck. 

"What is she doing up" I then add

"I rocked her, read her a story, but she doesn't want to sleep," he says and I nod my head since we have had her she has found it really hard to nap during the day and sleep at night,

 I don't know if something happened to her before she was with us but it's just a daily struggle, usually, her resulting in wanting to sleep next to me so she sleeps in between Grayson and I.

Yes, we are sleeping in the same bed. 

"Okay" he replies trying to tie Ava's ponytail

"Here let me," I say tieing it

"Wait are you leaving me with all 3 kids," he asks me

"Yes," I say, time for some revenge, I still haven't forgotten what he did to me almost two weeks ago now. 

"No, you can't," he says, his brows furrowing

"Why not, I'm with these kids all day, I have to look after them"

"That's not fair you are the mother," he says

"Excuse me?" I reply

"It's fine, we can watch a movie," he says mumbling to himself "baby, crying," he says and then his face creases

"It's okay, I'm taking the baby," I say and his face shows some sort of relief

"Oh thank god" he replies

That night the girls are really good Saskia goes down easily so I head to bed early Lola and Ava in tow with me, Grayson rolls in about 2 hours later. 

Lola wakes up 4 times which is pretty good for Grayson and I since she can wake up, up to 7 times a night- which she did twice on the nights that she had a slight fever and had tummy problems.

 I wake up at 6 when Ava starts jumping on the bed half an hour later Saskia wakes up, so I start making them some breakfast. 

By 8 Grayson rolls out of bed with no shirt on, he walks into the living room and sits down next to me, and I can't help but look at his abs. 

"Like what you see," he says

"No..."

"You can take a picture if you want," he replies

"Piss off"

"Hey Avie language around the kids," he says

"Whatever" I say getting up heading to our room so that I can get ready, but just as I make my way to the bathroom, I hear Lola cry from our bedroom so I change her nappy and give her a bottle rocking her to sleep, then finally laying my clothes out on the bed heading into the shower. 

After getting my shower I do my hair and some simple makeup before changing Lola into the clothes that she will be wearing after that I bring her down and I sit with the kids on the couch while Grayson gets ready.

 At 9:45 I quickly check the baby bag to see if I need to add anything in there, then putting Lola in her car seat, strapping her into the car.

For once my morning went well usually someone is crying, or throwing a tantrum, I really thought parenting was all sunshine and rainbows, but definitely not, we are lucky to have only one tantrum per kid in the morning. 

"Bye baby number 1," I say kissing Saskias nose

"And goodbye baby number 2" I then say kissing Ava's forehead

"Grayson" I yell and he runs down the stairs

"Yeah" he replies

"I'm leaving," I say 

"See ya, Avie," he replies waving

...

I walk up to Billie's front door, changing the hand that the car seat was in knocking on the door, I wait a few moments before I hear Billie call

"We're coming" the next moment, the door opens to reveal Michael

"Hi Avery," he says opening it wide so I can come in

"Hey Michael," I say hugging him

"They should be down in a minute, and whose this," he says gesturing to Lola, whos, starting to fall asleep, she is becoming more alert as an official 1-month-old.

"This is Lola Belle"

"Awww, this is Jackson," he says showing me the little boy, but we get interrupted by Billie walking down the stairs with Jamie running past her

"Hey Bil," I say

"Hi Aves, this is Jamie," she says but Jamie has already over to me

"Hello Jamie," I say "this is my baby, Lola"

"Eeek," she says squealing peering over the car seat, touching the babies face, making her blink

"Are you ready?" I ask her

"Yeah, let me get my bag" she replies running back up the stairs 

"Okay," I say 

10 minutes later and we are just about to park in the shopping center carpark, we are going to get our nails done, then have some lunch, and then lastly Billie has to get some groceries.

"So what color are you going to get," I ask Jamie, while she unbuckles her seat getting out of the car

"Pinkkk," she says

"Ooh, I love pink," I say grabbing the car seat

While I started to choose a color, and help Jamie grab the color that she wanted, Lola started to cry, so I turn around to get her.

"No, it's fine I got her" Billie replies

She takes the baby out of her car seat, rocking her, I ended up choosing a really pretty pinky nude. We then take a seat to wait, and before long we are taken onto the pedicure chairs.

"Here I'll take her," I say to Billie as we settle in

"No it's fine, I miss being around babies," she says

The rest of the day is really good, we go to nandos for lunch,  I order a ¼ chicken. We then head to the grocery store and I helped her shop as well as finding some things for my house. I dropped Billie off after the store and we decided to have dinner tomorrow night.

"Mama" the girls squeal the moment that I step inside the door

"How was today?" Grayson asks me when I am finally sitting down and not being attacked by the girls

"Good, I invited Billie and her family over for dinner tomorrow night"

"Michael right?" he asks me

"Yeah, do you know him"

"Yes, he's on the football team."

"Cool"

"What are we eating?" I ask and Grayson leads me to the kitchen.
