Little Things Matter (1D fanfic.)

Chapter 2

I know not many of you guys are reading this story, but for those that are and enjoyed that first chapter, it would be great if you could share it! I am not the best at updating frequently, as writing each chapter is a lot of work for me. I am a full time daycare teacher, so I only get limited time to write! I hope you all are enjoying this so far! Feel free to let me know how this story is going, and if you feel like it needs fixing just let me know. Feel free to help with the plot line of this story. Also, this story takes place in London! (I don't know how the school systems work there, so it'll just be like the schools in America!) So they're legal to drink! I forgot to mention that in chapter one I believe. 

Elizabeth's POV

As I enter the coffee shop I own, Coffee House, one of my employee's come up to me, and asks to speak with me in the back. "Ok. Let me set my things in my office, and I will come get you when I am ready!" I reply, and start to head to my little office out back. As I am getting my things set down, I hear my phone go off. Ugh, who can that even be? Everyone at home knows that I am at work.  

*text* Mom: Hey sweetie, sorry I know your at work, but would you mind getting milk on your way home, I used it up for dinner. 

Me: Of course mom! Love you!

Setting my phone down on the table, I walk back out to the front, and greeting everyone as I go by. "Chelsea, I'm ready to talk to you in the office now." Everyone around me, look around with confused looks on their faces, and Chelsea follows me to my office. 

"Have a seat." Chelsea does as she is told, and sits up. 

"I wanted to let you know that I am pregnant, and I am due on January 22nd. I would like to take maternity leave, if thats ok." Chelsea states, sounding very nervous. 

"Oh! Congratulations, Chelsea! Of course you can have that maternity leave! You'll have ten weeks of maternity leave once the baby arrives, or until you go on bed rest." When hearing this, it looks like a weight has been lifted off of her shoulders, almost like she didn't think I was going to agree. 

"Thank you so much, Elizabeth! I didn't think you would've said yes." She exclaims, and sighs. "Anyways, that's all I needed!" She gets up, and walks towards the front.

"Oh and Chelsea." I call after her. She turns back around, and looks towards me. "Yeah?" 

"Go ahead and go home, you're out in thirty minutes, it's slow. Have the rest of the day off." I tell her. 

"Ok, thank you ma'am."  Chelsea states as she walks out.

(I probably won't be doing too many at work writes either unless I end up having a plot for it)

Walking into the grocery store, I head for the dairy section for the milk my mom asked for. As I am about to grab it, some costumer runs into me, making me fall over. "Ow.." Grabbing my side, that hit the ground. I look up to see its my boyfriend, Shawn. "Baby! I am so sorry, I didn't see you there!" He helps me up, and gives me a quick peck. 

"It's ok, what even happened anyways?" I ask, as I grab a gallon of milk. "Oh, some lady had pushed me which caused me to bump into you." He explains as we both go to the front of the store. 

"Ah. She's an asshole then, even if she didn't say sorry. Oh! I'm going to a One Direction concert on December 22nd with Kelsea!" 

"That's great! Are you going to get a hotel for the nights?" He asks, as we approach the counter to pay. "Probably, yeah. Makes it easier to commute there and back." I tell him. "Ah that makes sense. I'll miss you, Elizabeth." He only says my name when he's aggravated at something. "You okay, baby?" I press, I know I probably shouldn't press into it, but I can't help it.
