yours and mine - mason mount

Ella's POV:
After moving in a couple of days ago, I needed to buy groceries, so I went nearby to a supermarket. I grabbed what I need to store in the fridge, especially Luka's juice, and milk. When I sent to the spices aisle, I felt someone staring, like hardcore staring so I left, what threw me off was the familiar cologne, reminding me of him.

You're stupid Ella, why would he be here? I shook my head and went to pay. The same feeling of someone watching dialed against me so I turned around but saw no one. As I loaded the items in my trunk, I saw a shadow from a distance standing near the entrance. Scared and paranoid I went inside my car and drive away, noticing the one staring and following me around was Mason.

Oh no... I dialed Sophia who picked up instantly. "You won't believe who's I just saw" cutting straight to the point, making her question "Who?" I took a deep breath composing myself, reminding me of the way he looked. "Mason... he was in the store at the same time I was in"

"Oh my god. Did he talk to you?" she says unsure, "No I went to pick up some food so I could stock into the new apartment I just never thought he'd be here" we stayed silent before she speaks up again. "Where are you now?"

"Driving near the cafe we went to with the girls the other day, I'm on my way to pick up Luka". She shakes her head "Go home unpack the groceries and then come for him. I want to spend more time with him now that he's here. Look baby, mommy" Luka giggles making my heart flutter. "Mamma" he blows a kiss before waving goodbye.

"Okay, I'll let you go since your driving" Sophia waves bye "Okie I'll see you later" I hung up and pulled into my parking lot. I grabbed my groceries and stocked them on my shelves, pantry, and refrigerator.

Before leaving, I packed an extra outfit for Luka. I can't believe he's almost 2. I grabbed my purse and left to pick him up. The thought of Mason being there at the same time I was there made me feel happy but I knew better and just decided to let it be.

After seeing him in his Chelsea gear, fresh-cut all my feelings rushed into me again, I wanted to feel his touch, to hear his voice, smell that cologne I knew too well, and look at his intense brown eyes again. I wanted him so badly here to raise Luka, but she was probably still in the picture.

Saturday...
The bright sun woke me from my slumber, rubbing my eyes at the intense lighting. I look to my side and saw Luka laying on his stomach in a deep sleep. It's about 9 am and I woke up to get ready.

I showered making sure my hair was washed so I could keep it styled, my outfit was a simple black drop shoulder tee with a pair of ripped jeans. i was doing my hair when i heard little footsteps coming toward the bathroom. A grumpy but happy Luka. He wanted me to carry him so I did. He laid his head on my shoulder and wrap his little arm around the other one staying there while I finished getting ready.

"Bath time!" he giggled loudly as I put him into the bathtub. I scrubbed all dirt and sticky candy he ate before he went to bed. I picked out an outfit which was a black shirt with some khakis shorts.

I went to the kitchen and made him breakfast. He walked over to his small football and goalie net shooting. It was around 3:30 pm when we headed out. I packed the carrier and placed him into his car seat.

"Let's go!" he smiled widely and looked out the window. For his age, he wasn't aggressive or needy. He always knows what he wants and understands you when you speak to him. My smart baby, he looks a lot like Mason from some angles.

I drove for 45 minutes, the entire drive I talked with my mom, we chatted so long, and soon I was pulling into their home. I took Luka out placing him on my hip along with my purse and closed the door. I knocked on the door and seconds later we were greeted by the infamous german couple. Luka got so excited as I put him down running to their aunt and uncle.

There were some people there I knew so I greeted them, then helped them set up tables outside, the fire pit, and prep the fajitas and burgers. Luka played outside with Kai, giving me time to help Sophia make drinks. Chatting then and there with guests, Lorelei, and Amelie. Luka came back inside a bit sweaty with his cheeks red. I offered Luka some water and he gladly took it. more people arrived at the minute. Soon we had a house full of friends I've known.

The Chelsea lads Ben, Christian, Kepa, and Timo came inside, at first I didn't recognize them but they worked with Mason... "Hey Sophia we brought some-" They turned around and saw me. They quickly came and hugged me tight as I laughed. "Holy shit, you're here" Kepa said shocked. "Oh, my we've missed you so much Ella" I hugged Ben again.

We catch up, reminiscing the good time before they ask a question I dread to answer. "who's baby is that?" ben asked looking at kai who picked up Luka. I breathed loudly and walked over to him. "This little one is mine" they looked shocked and in denial. "You're a mom now?" asked Christian, I nodded. I guess they took the memo and didn't ask any further questions. All of them carried him with big smiles as he giggled.

They all went outside before I turn to the group of girls I've grown to love and admire. "That was kinda hard to say" I admitted. "Yeah, it was hard to see you like that. But I'm so proud of you okay, don't doubt yourself or your actions" lorelei said. "Ugh, Ben looked so cute holding him. He looks like a DILF" Amelie said fanning herself making us laugh.

"We gotta get yall together, you two make a cute couple" Sophia said making Amelie nod eagerly. "While you're at it, pair me with Christian, I heard he broke up with his girlfriend. I won't overstep but he's good looking" Lorelei added. "Oh well, come here let's continue cooking"

I cut up some fruit and offered Luka some. "Apples or Grapes? "he grabbed both with no hesitation and at them. I laughed while Sophia looked at me with wide eyes. Kai rushed inside looking pale and unsure, he immediately started to apologize.

"I- I'm so so- sorry, I completely forgot" I grew confused and stood there. "What happened? What's wrong?" he shook his head and looked down. I looked to see who came in and saw him.

Mason.
