"This is so fucking stressful," I ran my hands down my face, letting out a deep breath. Corryn was standing behind me, crossing her arms.

"Update me," she sat down in the chair next to me.

"Well, I finally received my papers for court," I started explaining. "I found a lawyer, a good one. I guess I could say Harry found me one. He was livid let me tell you," I began to ramble.

"Anyways, currently I can see Max for two hours every day, from noon to two," I explained. "But now I need to find a 2 bedroom apartment or house or literally whatever I can find," I slapped my hands down on my laptop, looking at available places to live.

"If I get Max back we need to have a good place," I shook my head.

"You could just move in with Harry," I snapped my head back at her.

"Corryn," I shook my head. "We've been together for like 2 weeks," I furrowed my eyebrows.

"And you guys are fucking in love?" She shrugged.

"Shouldn't you be organizing things for the show? It's in three days," I changed the subject, turning back to my computer.

"This is more important and I want to be here for you," she put her hand on my shoulder.

"Corryn you are my boss, which means if you aren't successful I'm not successful. Which also means if I'm not successful I can't afford to take care of my soon-to-be family," I said. "So doing this show is supporting me," I looked back at her.

She huffed and sat back down by her computer.

I scrolled aimlessly through different apartments, trying to make up my mind on what I wanted.

Realistically, if I asked Harry about moving in, I think he'd say yes. But, I can't do that to Max. I need to figure out my life and Max's life, and then we can worry about a life with Harry.

Max loves Harry. Harry's been so good with him. Sometimes he spends the two hours with Harry instead of me, and I'm okay with that.

I want them to bond.

I'm beginning to worry that Max might start liking Harry more than me. Obviously, that's not my biggest worry in the world, but Harry's already won over Megan. 

Max told me he and my mother did a lot of moving around before they came here. I was gone for six months, how much moving around can you do?

My attention was brought to my phone as it began to ring. I grabbed it, swiping to answer it. 

"Hello?" I put the phone on speaker so I could focus on scrolling through different places. 

"Hello, is this Sadie?" 

"This is she," I spoke into the phone, keeping my eyes on the computer. 

"I read through our application for the two-bedroom loft apartment, you seem like the perfect fit. Are you able to come and tour it today?" I sprang out of my seat out of pure joy. 

"Yes!" I looked over at Corryn. She was smiling widely. 

"Alright, would 2:30 work?" I heard typing on the other end of the phone. 

"Yes that's perfect," I said calmly. 

"Alright, I will see you there. Bye," She said politely. 

"Bye," I hung up the phone and looked back at Corryn. She squealed as she got out of her seat, wrapping her arms around me. 

"Okay, okay," I looked down at my apple watch. 

1:27

"I pick up Max at two, he can tour the house with me," I smiled. "I've got to go, the traffic is bad today," I kissed Corryn's cheek.
