I sat in the passenger seat of Lazlos car as he was driving me back home. The night was great. It was peaceful and we just spent some time talking about things we have in common or planning for the next date. It felt nice to spend some simple and peaceful quality time together. I had told Lazlo how I saw Lisa at the place where I looking for dresses and he talked about how many times she tried to feel on him. I laughed at it because even though she knew lazlo still had his eyes on me, she tried to sleep with him which we obviously knew wasn't going to happen. Other than that the night was beautiful and fun.

The care ride was silent but it wasn't because there was and tension, it was just peaceful. Lazlo had his hand on my thigh the whole time he was driving.

We arrived at my house and I looked at him with a smile before cupping his cheek with my hand. Lazlo scanned me with his eyes one last time before unlocking the car door. I smiled and got out of his car. Since we agreed to work on things I didn't even leave him with a kiss. Just calm eye contact and to be honest it didn't feel too bad.

I watched as Lazlo drove off after I closed his car door. I exhaled slowly as it was a little odd not having any sexual contact with him but that was just the problem we needed to focus on. It shouldn't feel weird to not have sex with a partner after a date and he wouldn't have minded giving me sex tonight but I need to make our relationship better and he knew it too.

I turned around to look at the front door of my house and I noticed that a car was sitting in the driveway...it was mine. I didn't really pay attention to it and proceeded to walk up to my front door to open it but I realized that ace had my car. I inhaled slowly and opened the front door expecting to be met with a jealous ace because I went on a date with Lazlo but instead my house was purely silent. Once again with my mom gone. I found it a bit odd for me to have not seen her for this long but I mean hey.

I walked to my bedroom and noticed the bedroom door was cracked open and the light was open. I kept silent as I slowly opened my bedroom door and walked in. My eyes scanned my room but stopped at my bed as ace was laying on my bed but... he was sleep. Sleep with his phone laying beside him waiting for a text from me, or that's what I assumed he fell asleep doing.

I exhaled heavily as I'm glad he wasn't up because I didn't know if he would be jealous or not but I also felt bad for not texting him at all. I kept quiet as I started to strip off my dress and rid myself of makeup and take my hair down. I changed into comfortable pajamas and got in bed next to ace. I looked up at the ceiling while laying next to him.

I was currently conflicted with myself as I had realized that Lazlo didn't really want me around ace and I wanted to respect it but he also said that he can't stop me and I mean we aren't in a official relationship just yet but since we're working on everything together I feel like I should devoted to him while we work things out.

I don't know.

I woke up to the sound of my name being called. It was loud and ringing my ears. I felt around on my bed to realize that the body that was in my bed last night was no longer there.

I immediately sat up on my bed and looked out of my bedroom window which was right beside my bed to see that my car was still in the driveway so at this point I assumed it was ace calling my name. I got up from my bed and dragged myself outside of my bedroom and into the kitchen which is where the yelling came from. It was ace who was in the kitchen but it was my mom. When she saw me she smiled brightly and I smiled back as I ran up to her and hugged her tightly.

I didn't know where she had been in the last couple of days and it felt like forever since I had seen her. It had almost been a week and my brain became a little mixed with the thought that my mom could've been dead but to be in her arms now felt amazing. I know it sounds a bit stupid for me to be an adult and crying over my mom not being home for a while but she was the only parent I had ever grown up with and it makes me feel a bit odd to say that when I think of ace and his story.

Ace grew up with absolutely no one so I can't even complain about this. I pulled away from my mom and looked in her eyes. She looked tired and I bet she was I mean I would be too. "Mom, where have you been?" I asked her with worry in my voice as I had hoped and prayed that she hasn't been working this whole time.

"I had to take an unexpected business trip, I'm sorry. I couldn't text or call either." My
Mom said with tiredness in her eyes and and I smiled weakly at her. I was worried for my mom for a while now. She has always been overworking herself and it bothered me a bit.

"Mama you need to go lay down ok? I don't think it is safe for you to still be up. Go get some sleep. I'm going to go somewhere for a while but I should be back tonight or earlier. If you need anything please text me and I promise I will rush here as soon as I can." I said as I cupped my moms face. She nodded not even saying words before walking out of the kitchen to hopefully go lay down.

I didn't really know what I wanted to do today. I had options of people to go see but I didn't know who to see. I figured I'd just go see Lexi as she was the easiest person to see right now.

I went to my bedroom and immediately texted Lexi asking her to pick me up so we could just spend time together today and she agreed as she had a doctors appointment and was going to go do a bit of retail therapy afterwards. I smiled as I put my phone down and began to get ready. I wanted to look good but I also wanted to keep it slightly casual.

I decided to wear my hair in waterfall braids joined together so I could keep most of my hair out of my face. I also ended up wearing a black lace bralette top and some black jeans. I thought about the fact that we were going to the doctors office so I grabbed a Jean jacket to put over the top of my body. I wouldn't have thought much of it but my boobs had been kinda huge so I needed to cover them up in this top. I buttoned up the Jean jacket and did some cat eye eyeliner.

I had been sitting on my bed before hearing a honking outside and I knew that Lexi was there. I jumped up off of my bed and grabbed my wallet and my phone along with house keys before going to my moms room to check on her.  My mom had taken my advice and was sleeping on her bed.  I walked up to her and rubbed her head before kissing her on the cheek and going to the front door. I opened the front door slowly and quietly before stepping out of the house and closing the door behind me as slowly as possible.
I waved at Lexi while walking up to her car quickly and getting inside of her car.

"You look nice miss love triangle." Lexi said followed by her wiggling her eyebrows.

"Oh hush it's not a love triangle ok? Lazlo is in love with me but ace isn't and I'm not in love with him...it's just fun.." I said but sounding a bit unsure so Lexi just winked at me before starting to back out of my driveway, "yeah right." Lexi smiled before driving away from my house.

I felt that today was going to be a good day with her.
