We're meeting Harry, Dane, and the kids for dinner in about a half hour. I just got out of the shower after our long day at the pool, my hair wrapped up in a towel. I decided to keep my outfit simple since the dinner we have planned isn't too fancy.

I'm wearing a plain white high neck tank top and light wash high-waisted jean shorts that are frayed at the bottom. I'll probably end up adding a belt right before we leave.

Beckett is wearing his usual t-shirt and shorts. Today it's a light green shirt with a pocket and gray shorts. He's all ready to go and playing with his trucks, of course.

I still need to dry my hair and do my makeup while Beckett plays with his trucks, so that's what I'm doing now. Luckily it doesn't take my hair long to dry because I'll need more time for my makeup. It takes me forever to get my eyebrows even.

After my hair is blow-dried, I start on my makeup, deciding to keep it light since we're just going to the diner. Once it's done, I check the time to see that there's only five minutes before we're supposed to be meeting them. I rush out of the bathroom to Em's room so I can make sure she's ready, not worried about Beckett since all I need to do is get his shoes on.

"Are you ready, Em? We're supposed to meet them in five." I ask from the door way.

"Yeah, just let me get my shoes on real quick," she yells from her bathroom.

"Okay, I just have to get mine and Beckett's shoes on then we'll be good to go too."

I turn around and walk over to Beckett to let him know how quick we need to get moving.

"Hey, Beck, time to get our shoes on so we can go meet our friends!" I tell him excitedly.

"Yay! Aden and Arlo and Harry and Dane?" he rattles off.

He must be excited.

"Yes! All of our new friends!" I answer and walk over to grab his little tennis shoes and a pair of socks.

"Alright, let's get our shoes and socks on," I say. He pokes his feet out towards me, not losing focus of his toys, but making it easier for me to help him nonetheless.

I get his shoes and socks on his feet, then get up to put my sandals on. Em comes out of her room while I'm putting my shoes on, and once I'm done we're ready to go.

Em gets Beckett since she's closer to him and he stands up beside her, reaching for her hand. They walk hand in hand over to me by the door, and we head downstairs.

Once we reach the lobby, the elevator not taking long like always, we spot them by the couches.

Our usual meeting spot.

It's weird to think about the fact that we have a usual meeting spot.

We walk over to where they are and Harry immediately engulfs me in a tight hug.
