Taylor
"So how was it?" Selena asked giving me Jade I took the little girl in my arms holding her by my hip. "It was alright I kept getting stares by the other young girls who worked there. It felt like I was back in high school with the popular bullies whispering things behind your back." I laughed
"Wow! Well maybe because they're all riding you know who." She laughed
"Hmm I don't know she was very attractive it was weird I felt like nervous around the girl." I laughed
Selena just wiggled her eyebrows. We paid for our food grabbing it and walking back to the tables. Some nights we'd have pizza others we'd eat out of overpriced food trucks. "Jade seems tired. Are you tired baby?" I asked she didn't say anything only continued to sip on her drink.
"She was jumping all over the place when I picked her up must've gotten worn out." Sel smiled
"Thank you so much Sel for picking her up." I said "It's no biggie I got nothing to do anyway."
Sel and I wanted to hang out longer but Jade seemed to have other plans she was falling asleep on me. "Let's get you to bed." I smiled carrying Jade to my bed she laid down falling asleep before I could even turn around and change.
I changed into a v neck sleeping shirt and shorts closing the door not to wake Jade before sneaking away to the living room I poured some wine and finally sat down. Doing this made me feel terribly old even if I was only 24 being a mom really made me settle down.
I scrolled through my messages stopping at an unknown number.
Unknown: Hey it's Karlie you left your cardigan here not sure if it is yours but it's definitely not mine I'm not a cardigan gal haha.
I couldn't help but let the smile play on my lips I quickly sent her a message.
Me: Hi, Sorry didn't respond earlier I just saw this that is in fact my cardigan! I'll pick it up tomorrow :)
She instantly wrote back.
Karlie: Alright Tayla talk you you lata ;)
I rolled my eyes at the cheesy joke she made.
Me: Goodnight Karlie
Karlie: Goodnight Taylor
I put my phone down turning on some random home improvement show trying to stop myself from smiling so much at Karlie's dumb texts.

"I'll see you later baby okay?" I said Jade nodded letting go of my neck I gave her a kiss on the cheek before she walked to her teacher who sent me a wave I gladly returned with a smile.
I drove to work feeling a little too excited to see Karlie. Maybe we could be good friends.
I walked into the building holding my head a little higher than yesterday I still noticed the girls whispering it's was sorta funny so childish.
"Hey are you Taylor?" I turned nodding the girl smiled. "Hi! I'm Gigi I'm Alan's assistant he's partners with Karlie you're her new assistant?" She asked I nodded we walked down the hallway together.
"Don't mind all the girls they're probably jealous." She laughed. "Why would they be?" I asked
"Well I mean Karlie she's...you know hot I guess and they all want her but it seems you've caught her eye." Gigi giggled.
"Oh?"
"Yup! Well I have to go now Taylor I'll see you later!" The younger girl smiled she was way too energetic for this place. I smiled a little walking into Karlie's office and to my surprise she was there.
"Someone pinch me I'm dreaming or is that Karlie kloss not late?" I joked she laughed a little standing up. "Funny one, here's your cardigan." She said I took the cardigan from her. "Thank you."
"Are you gonna get my order right today or should I go with you?" She asked I couldn't help but smile. "I'll get it right today."
"That's my girl." She smiled I avoided eye contact walking out of her office.
I'm straight stop smiling at ever fucking thing she says!
