Everything I Ever Wanted

Talking

'I love you too. My Lizzie.'

'And my sweet girl.'
———————————————————
Now: Lizzie's POV again
After a moment, I stood up and walked us back to Ashley's office, following a short goodbye with the twins. I sat on the couch and pulled out my phone. Eva kept her head laid against my chest as I started playing a movie for us to watch. That's how we ended up spending the remainder of our afternoon. Cuddling and watching movies.

At around half past six Ashley came in to let us know they were finished. I gathered my stuff, leaving Eva to continue watching Beauty in the Beast on my phone.

'Hey, Liz, give me your keys. I'm gonna go pick up something for dinner and meet you guys at home.' MK said poking her head into the room. I tossed her my keys and finished checking my bag for everything.

Ashley walked in after using the bathroom. 'You ready to go?'

'Yeah, let me get Eva.' I walked over to the couch and pulled my phone gently out of her hands, pausing the movie and placing it in my bag. A small whine drew my attention back to her.

'You can finish it later. But it's time to go. You ready to go home?' She nodded her head and stood up off the couch. I walked over to the door while she put her shoes on and watched as she skipped over to me and grabbed my hand. We walked to the elevator and met up with Ashley before heading down to the car. When we got there, I helped Eva into the back and made sure she got buckled before settling myself in the passenger seat.

Ashley drove us home as we listened to music on the radio and made small conversation. I kept looking back at Eva and couldn't help noticing that she truly loved to look out the window and study everything we passed.

Time skip to them getting home and then eating dinner and all that because I'm tired and it's 1 am

We just finished eating and decided to have our talk in the living room. I was sat on one of the couch's with Eva across from me and Mk and Ash beside us.

'So Eva, do you remember the people that were scaring you earlier after lunch?' I asked her.

'The mean men with cameras?' She asked cringing at the thought of them. The twins and I lightly chuckled at her cute but accurate description of paparazzi.

'Yes, the mean men with cameras. Monkey those people are called paparazzi and they like to involve themselves in other peoples business just because those people might be famous.' Ashley explained to her.

'Like you?' She seemed to be catching on ever so slightly.

'Like us. You see, they take pictures and videos of us and follow us around. Then, they give those pictures to the media, where the media creates articles and brings light to the photos. Basically they like to make rumors about famous people because it makes them more popular. So, they aren't very nice people and they can create drama that we have to explain ourselves for.' MK furthers in a way that an eight year old can understand.

'Does that mean they said some not so nice things about Lizzie and I earlier?' Geez this kid is smart.

'Yes, baby. Unfortunately they are now very worried about who you are and why you are with me and around the twins. They have pictures of us earlier and everyone is trying to figure out what's egoing on. The media is going crazy right now.' I was upset that it had only been a day and we were already having to input some precautions and information about stupid paparazzi to our lives.
