Sweethearts-A MIALOTTE tale

Chapter 7 - The Morning After

Charlotte:

I woke up in mias spare bedroom I had had a few to many drinks last night and mia offered for me to stay over. She didn't want to rush things between us as she wasn't sure I was ready, which I appreciated. I slowly got out of bed and put on mias spare dressing gown she lent me a pair of pajamas to sleep in which I was greatful for. I went into the bathroom and looked under the sink were I found a pack of toothbrushes and Toothpaste so I brushed my teeth and went downstairs. I could smell something delicious as I was walking towards the kitchen. I could see that mia was cooking some breakfast for me. She's so sweet and considerate she turned around and saw me.
"Good morning sweetheart did u sleep well"
"I did thank you"
"Would you like some breakfast"
"Sure do you also have some coffee, the hangover is hangovering"
She laughed
"Of course I do sweetheart I just made a fresh pot"
She pointed over to the counter. I picked the pot up and grabbed a mug from the cupboard above it and poured myself a cup.
"What's the plan for today then sweetheart" Mia saod as she was putting the plates on the table.
"I've got to go and pick up my kids from my mom's house"
"Agh pitty you can't stay woth me all day"
"It's ok I'm sure we'll see eachother very soon"
"Are you sure about that"
"Do you want to come over on Monday night."
"Sure what time"
"Maybe 7ish as I get off work later"
"OK see you there"
We finished breakfast and I kissed her goodbye. I got into my car and drove to my mom's house. When I got there I rang the doorbell.My mom answered and my daughters ran up to me and hugged me. They went off to play while I had a coffee with my mom and dad. I stayed for about an hour then I took the girls and left. Im really not looking forward to Monday Marjorie told me this new deputy manager is horrible I hope she likes me. Maybe it'll be easier if I get kn the good side of her. However I am looking forward to seeing mia. I miss her already, she just has a way of making you feel special. I wonder what we are going to do when she comes over. I'm trying to decide between staying in or going out. If we go out people might see us. I'm not worried about that but I just don't know where we stand. If we stay in it could have a more romantic feel to it. I think we'll just watch a film and order pizza.

Monday morning came along fast and I was dreading going to work. I just really hope she isn't to horrible. And what's worse is that Reese won't even be there because he's at a managers conference.
I get myself ready and drive to work and drop my kids off in the rooms. Their dad is picking them up tonight  so me and mia have the whole house to ourselfs. I get to work and I have to go and see this deputy manager as I don't know what room I'm in. I walk down the corridor and knock on the office door
'Come in'
A voice says it sounds familiar almost scary familiar
I walk in and the manager is sat on her swivel chair facing the wall.
I say
'Um hi I'm supposed to be working here today from the sister nursery'
The chair spins around. we lock eyes. I look at her. My jaw dropped.
'MIA'
