*a few weeks later*

I look over at Josh and Ava and smile. "Okay mom that's great, I love you too. See you soon bye." I hang up and smile at Ava. "Grandma and grandpa are coming to watch you for a whole week!" I say sitting down next to Josh on the floor. Ava is so small even next to Josh. I burst out laughing thinking about how tall Josh is. "What's so funny?" Josh asks laughing at me. "Nothing! I was just thinking about something. It's fine. I gotta pack and clean up and stuff my parents will be here in the morning." I say getting back up. They're coming to watch Ava while Josh and I go to the Mockingjay part one premieres. I feel bad leaving her after only two weeks but it'd be suspicious for us not to go. Especially since our relationship is kept pretty secretive.

I run to our room and pack my clothes, most pajamas since I'll be in and out of dresses all week. I pack Josh's clothes too. I hope he likes what I picked. I smirk at our suit cases. I packed his batman t-shirt for myself and left him with a white t-shirt.

I go downstairs and find Josh laying down on the couch watching tv and Ava sleeping on him. It's so cute I stop and stare at them for a while. "Joshy, we should go to sleep my parents are gonna be here early." I whisper. "Okay, I'll put her to bed." He says getting up slowly and carrying her upstairs with us. He puts her in her crib and then follows me to our room.

I zip up our suitcases and put them on the floor then lay down on my side of the bed. "I feel bad that I'm leaving her, but it'll be nice having some alone time with you." Josh says covering us both up with our blanket. "Yeah, I know. I think it will be good for her though to be with my parents and it's definitely a plus that we don't have to worry about her waking us up." I say turning on my side so I'm facing away from him. "Or us waking her up." He says, I can tell he's smirking.

I wake up to the sound of my alarm clock and I jump out of bed. Josh barely even flinches. I turn off the alarm and smile at Josh. "Wake up joshy. My parents are gonna be here and I'm pretty sure they don't wanna see you in your underwear." I say loudly. He rubs his eyes and then looks at me. "Get dressed, I'm gonna go make sure everything's ready for them." I say. He gets up and runs his fingers through his hair. I can't help but think about how sexy he looks. Just a few more hours and I'll have him all to myself.

I walk into Ava's room and double check making sure everything she needs is in plain sight and then go back to our room to get dressed. I put on comfortable clothes, a pair of jeans and a t-shirt. I hear a knock at the door and run to go get it, almost tripping on the stairs.

I open the door and let my parents in, then Josh appears on the stairs with our suitcases. "Okay so everything you need is in her room and the guest bedroom is cleaned out and if you have any questions just call. Our flight is leaving soon so we gotta hurry." I say all in one mouthful. Josh takes our stuff out to the car while they get settled in. "Have a good flight. We love you both!" My mom says as we're leaving. "Love you too!" Josh and I both say before slamming the door. "Here we come Paris!" I yell as we start up the car.
