After the Olatunji family had alcohol in their system they were a lot easier to talk to. Still stiff and ignorant, but at least they weren't interrogating Hadiyeh as if she was a criminal charged for stealing their son.

Just an hour after midnight, they left, leaving Hadiyeh and JJ with somewhat smiley faces, it isn't ideal but it's something. That night the two of them slept soundly not wanting to spare another thought about JJ's family issues.

*ring* *ring*

"Pick up your phone," Hadiyeh grumbled elbowing JJ sharply in the ribs.

"Hm?" JJ groaned still dazed.

"Your phone idiot, your phone," She muttered

He muttered something inaudible under his breath before picking up his phone.

"Yeah?"

Hadiyeh's joints almost buckled at the sound of JJ's morning voice, they had been married for over a year and there was still something very attractive about it.

Hadiyeh heard Simons voice from the other side of the line.

"Okay, bye."

JJ hung up the phone before Simon even had the chance to say goodbye.

"What did he say?"

"Talia's been calling you for the past hour, did you forget you have your makeup launch?"

"Shit!" Hadiyeh swore completely out of her sleepy haze, "Shit! Shit! Shit!"

She jumped out of bed and hastily wrapped herself in her robe, she needed to do her make-up and get online ASAP.

~~~

"There is no way, we're letting you do this!" Ethan grumbled sat at Hadiyeh and JJ's dining table in front of camera's and lighting.

"Are we rolling?" Hadiyeh asked Kon behind the camera totally disregarding Ethan's comment.

"Hey guys, if you didn't already know, my make-up line innocent is out! and that thanks to you guys it sold out completely within the first few minutes of going live! I absolutely love you guys!" Hadiyeh cheered Josh, Tobi and Ethan clapping sarcastically.

"And as you can see, I have a few volunteers who willing came to the shoot, to try out my make-up!"

"She's lying you guys!" Ethan threw his hands out, "WE WERE FORCED! I DID NOT CONSENT!"

"Chill out you drama queen," Hadiyeh rolled her eyes, "I'm going to be doing their makeup!"

"I hate you," Tobi huffed.

Talia, JJ and Freya burst out laughing from the other side of the camera.

"For reference, if you hear laughing and comments from off-camera we have these three idiots who are going to be rating each look," Hadiyeh motioned for them to show up. Each only appearing in front of the camera lens for a second before disappearing.

"So first I'll be doing their make-up and then they'll be doing mine," Hadiyeh grinned.

"Yo man, Tobi looking kind of peng!" JJ laughed as she finished Tobi's look.

Hadiyeh then did Josh's look complete with winged green eyeliner and blue eyeshadow.

"And since Ethan was being a bitch, I'm giving him one of the more powerful looks, a bold red lip." Hadiyeh had drawn on some real eyebrows for Ethan finishing his look with heavy contouring and highlights.

"Yo, he's got some actual eyebrows now!" JJ jeered.

"Fucking thanks lad," Ethan wiggled his new eyebrows.

"I vote that you do JJ next!" Tobi pointed at the camera.

"Okay, it's up to josh, pick how many likes for this video for me to get JJ into your chair and do his make-up,"

"Nah allow it fam, my Reddit are gon move mad!" JJ shook his head.

"Guys if this video hits 400k then you'll see JJ in this chair with Hadiyeh doing his make-up." Josh grinned knowing damn well that all of Hadiyeh's videos passed a million likes easily.

"You heard that guys, like, subscribe and go preorder the new pallet cuz I'm restocking them soon, peace!" Hadiyeh brought the video to an end.

"Someone pass me one of them make-up wipe things!" Ethan cried out.

~~~

"It's not what you think!" Tobi, JJ and Hadiyeh were sat on the couch and were talking about Saeedeh.

"If you like her, man up and ask her out, if you don't like her break things off, its that simple!"

"No, it's not!" Tobi cried out, "For fucks sake, I fucking love her, but I- she's too young to settle down."

"That's not for you to decide! Go ask and see what she says!" Hadiyeh throws her hands out for emphasis.

"I've even got her a damn ring, ask JJ, but I don't even have your parents blessing!"

"You knew about this?!"

"He told me after you left the other day and made me swear not to tell anyone," JJ throws his hands up as though he was innocent.

"You're booking a flight with Saeedeh to Dubai to ask for our parents' blessing, if they do say yes, then you are more than welcome to marry her, if not, you're going to disappear out of her life permanently, understand?"

He nodded.

"Do you fucking understand?" Hadiyeh wants to snap his head off his shoulders.

"Yes, I do."

"Good."
