"Nobody has ever measured, even poets, how much a heart can hold." – Zelda FitzgeraldHailey Hughes POV
I've had a long day at the bakery today but I'm so excited for tonight. I'm heading straight from the bakery to Mattys . He has the night off from any games and we decided to have a Halloween themed activity night .
After changing upstairs in my office I head out the back door towards my bronco . Once inside I start it up and drive off to Mattys . Tonight we're going to carve pumpkins , decorate a haunted gingerbread house , make a spooky themed dinner and to finish off the night we'll have a Halloween movie marathon .Within twenty minutes I pull in to Mattys driveway. I walk inside his house without knocking , I never do so why would I start now. " finally your here" matty hugs me and helps with the few tote bags I brought filled with supplies for tonight.
" sorry we had an order come in late for this sweet old lady and I just couldn't say no yo her "
"Definitely sounds like you " I shake my head with a smile as I head into his kitchen to set up our activities . " so what do you want to do first " I ask turning towards matty ." pumpkins , as I was waiting I removed the guts so we could save time for other activities." " I'm glad I absolutely hate that part. The smell the texture yuck " matty laughs at my face of disgust. I walk over to the long dining room table at one end the pumpkin carving is set up and on the other end is set up for decorating the haunted gingerbread houses.
Matty puts on some Halloween themed music before siting down across from me in front of his pumpkin. As we start carving we begin discussing our upcoming schedules . " so one week from today next Wednesday is the team party what day are you coming over to start decorating."
" we'll I'm leaving tomorrow afternoon I'm flying out to Michigan .." before I could finish my sentence matty interrupts " wait what you're leaving ?" " yeah I thought I mentioned it I'm hoping to open a second location of Sweet Hughes In Michigan. So I'm looking at locations in Ann Arbor, if I don't find any that I like I'll look in Detroit but I preferred Ann Arbor . "
