Everything I Ever Wanted

Movie Day

They spent the rest of the day playing board games and watching movies with the twins. That night Lizzie tucked Eva into bed beside her and they slept happily, knowing that they were each other's. Eva was Lizzie's sweet girl, her baby, her daughter. And Lizzie was Eva's Lizzie, her Mama.

Now: in Ashley's POV because of something later in the chapter (you'll see)

time skip to Sunday morning because I'm saying the media was Saturday and these past two days are taking too many chapters

It's about nine in the morning and we have already finished breakfast. Eva seems pretty content listening to MK tell embarrassing stories about Lizzie. Of course without Lizzie's knowledge of this. She's currently talking to her directors about work stuff in her room. Right now, all I can think about is some call I'm supposed to get from MK and I's manager sometime after lunch. The email she sent last night seemed important and I'm a little nervous about what she has to say.

I'm brought out of my thoughts, by the sweet giggle of my monkey.

'What's so funny, you two?' Lizzie says re-entering the room after her call.

'Nothing.' MK says knowing how annoyed Lizzie would be if she finds out about the stories she's been sharing with Eva.

'Everything ok with work?' I ask noticing her slight nervousness.

'Yeah, everything's ok there. We were just talking about some meetings this week.' She says, sighing softly.

'You sure, you seem concerned.' MK pipes up, taking a moment away from the funny faces she's been showing Eva. Eva continues giggling unconcerned with the conversation going on.

'Yeah, it's not work. It's just I was talking with Scarlett earlier and sorta said something about her coming over tomorrow without even thinking.' She said obviously stressing over the situation.

'Who's Scarly?' Of course that's what draws her into the conversation. I look at Lizzie and she seems to freeze not knowing what to say.

'Scarlett, is a very good friend of your mama's. And I guess Aunt Ashy and I too.' MK says attempting to bring Eva's attention back to the old photos of Lizzie she's showing her.

Eva turns to Lizzie, 'How come you've never mentioned her?' I was honestly surprised by this myself, I thought for sure she would've said something about her close friends to Eva. I mean at least Scarlett.

'Well,... uh. I'm not really sure. I guess it slipped my mind, because I was too worried about the bad look your Aunt Katie is giving me.' Lizzie explained grabbing the phone with a childhood pic of her out of Eva's hands and glaring at MK.

'Hey, I was looking at that.' Eva whined.

'Well now you're not. If you want to see pictures of me, especially from when I was younger, you can ask anyone but your Aunt Katie. Although, I would love to show you some pics of her.' Lizzie said smirking at MK. I laughed at their interaction and decided it was a good time to intervene.

'Ok, children, that's enough! Now, what are we doing today? Zoo? Park? What?' I said.

'We are gonna watch movies and educate our lovely Miss Eva on what it's like to be a kid. As I promised her already. We've established fist bumps, uno, go fish, and most of the board games already from yesterday, so today is officially movie day.' MK announced not looking for any additional suggestions to be an option.
