Mialotte: Eternal Sweethearts

21. Dreaming big

A/N: A bonus chapter because I was thinking about this, this would be something that happens in the Roberts household. Aw. If you know me, you know I have a soft spot for babies, they are just the absolute cutest creatures. Little warning, Facebook spoilers. Regarding autumn. If you already know, read along. Kinda old news, but just wanted to let you guys know incase? Very wholesome chapter in my opinion. This chapter comes out on the 09/06, the next chapter comes out on the 12/06.

Prompt: The two have had a very long day. Between work, cooking dinner and cleaning the house. They decide to unwind a little and catch up to talk, instead of going to sleep, they sit and chat on the sofa.

Mia and Charlotte were nestled comfortably on the couch, their conversation punctuated by soft laughter and the gentle hum of the television in the background. The house was quiet, with Georgia already tucked in bed, she was tired from gymnastics. Mia was playing with Charlotte's hair, peppering her in kisses. Charlotte was straddling Mia. The pair were in a gentle embrace as they talked about their days.

Mia was currently talking, after Charlotte had asked what she did today... "I mean it was mainly takeover stuff with the Knight siblings. Aut is suspiciously good at legal stuff. She knew more than I did, not saying that's bad. But I just didn't expect it."

Char interjected. "Honestly, we learn something knew about Autumn every other day." "The other week it was that her and Reece went to Cranford."

"Haha, yeah, wouldn't expect less of Roger though, one thing he did do was push those two. Put them in excellence and nothing less. They did end up successful but him being a shitty father was the downside to it all. The baggage wasn't worth the successes."

Charlotte agreed, "Yeah, I mean Autumn used to be so mean. You remember when I told you about her and Marj's villain eras. Damn." "Autumn was so bubbly on the surface, but so rude when it came to her core." Char sighed a little. "Now she isn't bubbly but you can tell she's still got that gooey centre. She keeps a hard front, and I'm so sure it's Rogers doing."

Mia chimed in. "I know, that's kind of how Autumns always been, her trauma really did flip a switch in her. Just got to give her time to open up slowly. I'm sure Winter is helping her with it all." On a separate note, the redhead chimed. "Would have loved to see Marjorie's villain era. Gotta admit, the woman had a major glow up! Wish her and I got along though."

Charlotte laughed, the chaos those two would get up to if they were a duo. Marjorie and Mia? Char was certain she would be visiting the pair in jail every other week, for some sort of offence, though maybe it would be nice if they got along.

"So sweetheart, how was your day?" Mia was talking as she traced patterns on Char's shoulder, shifting her t-shirt to the side so she could touch her skin.

"Hmmm. It was average, I was so exhausted when I got home, you probably could tell. I was working in the toddler room, and you know how much energy those babies have. My goosshhh." Char leant her head back a little, sighing. "Then again, I wouldn't have it anyway else. I remember first doing this whole thing because I was worried about Gia starting at nursery, to ease my nerves." Char smiled. "And, now I get to help people with their nerves, sending their little ones off everyday."

Mia hummed in agreement, she couldn't imagine working with a room full of hyper-active toddlers. She loved children deep down. She wanted to have one with Char one day. Maybe. But the intimate relationship with babies and toddlers you know, seemed a lot different to the working relationship with them. Mia couldn't really grasp how working in childcare didn't slightly put off workers from having children. Surely it would?

Charlotte interrupted Mia's little wondering mind. "I know what you're thinkinggg"

Mia was intrigued. "What am I thinking about. Hm?" Smirking a little, thinking Char's mind was in the gutter.
