Me and amanda are having dinner but her phone rings,we haven't been able to have dinner together in peace for ages! She answers the phone "you want me to represent a 19 year old girl in court?"amanda asks

Great now that our dinner gone! "Yeah I'll be there in 15"amanda says before hanging up, she looks at me "I'm sorry"amanda says before she walks to her bedroom,amanda gets changed into her suit before walking back out "I am so sorry"amanda says "mhm"i hum before she kisses me and leaves I turn the tv on and i start to watch movies

At 11 o'clock amanda walks back through the door "how was court?"i ask "it wasn't court I had to look through the case,court isn't for like two weeks!"Amanda says "seriously you left dinner to look at a case?!"i ask annoyed "I had to babe"amanda says as she walks over to give me a kiss "so what's the case?"i ask "you know I can't tell you"amanda says "I left you some food it's in the fridge"i say "I have work to do I'm sorry"amanda says before walking into her office so I just go to bed

I wake up at 2 am to hearing someone walking around, I get up and walk back downstairs but it's Amanda of course it is,she always does this! "Babe"i say "yeah baby?"amanda asks not taking her focus off of the folder "what's bothering you?"i ask "nothing?"amanda asks "your pacing"i say and she stops like she only just realised that she's pacing

"So?"amanda asks confused "you only pace when your nervous"i say "I'm fine"amanda says "put it down and come to bed"i say "I have to keep working"amanda says "fine"i say before I walk to the kitchen to grab a drink, i sit on the sofa after I grab a drink and amanda looks at me "go to bed"amanda says "no I'm too worried about you"i say

Amanda lays down putting her legs on my lap "you don't need to worry"amanda says as I softly rub my hand on her leg "stop it your going to make me fall asleep"amanda says as she reads the case "good"i say "no not good I need to help this girl"amanda says "mans please you can't help this girl of your sleep deprived"i say

"Fine"amanda says putting the folder on the coffee table "now can we please go to bed?"i ask and amanda nods "carry me"I whine and she lifts me up and she carries me to bed before she starts to get changed "hurry up before I fall asleep"i say and amanda gets into bed and I cuddle into her before falling asleep

The next morning-Giselle's pov
I wake up to Amanda working "did you sleep at all?"i ask "sureeeee"Amanda says "you might want to start getting ready for work"i say and amanda closes her laptop before she starts to get changed "I'll see you later?"amanda asks before she kisses me and leaves

I decide to go into town since it's my day off today,but as I pull into the car park I see Amanda getting out of her car with a younger girl a client maybe? I get out of my car and Amanda and the girl are actually going the same way I was planning to "so from now on any time you need to have contact with your dad you need to tell me okay?"amanda asks "does the sympathy looks ever stop,I mean all my friends look at me like I'm some sort china doll"the girl asks

"Uh not for a while,even now my friends still look at me like that when someone brings up my mum but the one person who doesn't is my girlfriend"amanda says "oh yeah? Girlfriend? Not wife?"the girl asks "uh ive know you for a day but not yet but I do plan on marrying over one day!"amanda says "does the guilt stop?i keep feeling guilty for living my life"the girl asks "I wish I could say it gets easier but it doesn't I still feel guilty about doing anything that makes me happy without my mum"amanda says

But I decide to go into a shop,i pick up a few things before I go to get a coffee and i see amanda sat a table alone so I walk in and go over to Amanda "hey you!"amanda says "hey who was the girl?"i ask "the client for the case I'm working on!"amanda says and the girl walks back over
