"shit." taylor mumbles as we're sitting on the couch watching tv. ella is curled up between us as she's still waking up.
"what?" i turn to taylor
"rachel is sick." she says looking at her phone
"what do we do?" i ask. taylor is getting on the plane in a couple hours to head to new york for a meeting for the day and will be back by dinner, but it's really important and ella can't go. it's the middle of the day on a wednesday so all my friends are working.
"i don't know i really don't want to bring her to new york if i don't have to, but if that's our last resort i will." she says shaking her head. i really don't want to put that on her and make her more stressed about this meeting than she already is.
"i mean i could take her to practice with me. she might have fun." i suggest.
"are you sure?" she asks hesitantly. i've never taken her to a full practice before.
"yeah for sure." i say "what do you say el?" i ask the little girl curled up next to me.
"what?" she asks confused
"you wanna come to practice with me today?" i ask. he big blue eyes widen with excitement
"yes!" she sits up.
"you gotta be really good el, listen to daddy." taylor speaks up
"i will, i promise i will." she says enthusiastically as she moves to sit on her knees
"ok let's go get you dressed then. we have to leave in an hour." i say and stand up. ella springs up with me as taylor takes one more sip of her coffee and sets it on the end table and gets up.
"i'll get her dressed, you go get ready for practice." taylor says as we head up the stairs.
i nod and head to the bedroom while they had to ella's bedroom to get her ready.
we have to leave before taylor so we have to get dressed first.
i throw on some red cheifs shorts and a white sweatshirt and then white and red jordans.
"daddy i'm ready!" i hear ella squeal coming into the bedroom. i walk out of the bathroom and see ella jumping around with taylor walking in behind her.
she's dressed in biker shorts, a crewneck, little vans and hair in pigtails.
