Charlottes pov-

i wake up in Mia's arms. i could get used to this, I'm definitely falling for her. but does she feel the same? i reach over and grab my phone to check the time. my alarm is about to go off in 2 minutes so i decided to cancel it and wake Mia. i know she dose t set an alarm. that's why she's always late. i roll out of her arms so it's not as awkward. "Mia" she doesn't answer. "Mia get up we have work" she rolls over and pulls the covers over hair head "uhhh 5 more minutes" i giggle a little. "no" i say pulling her covers off of her. "char!" she says shooting up to grab them off of me "get up" she rolls her eyes "ugh fine" we both get dressed and head out the door for work. i told her i would drive since my car was already there. once we arrive at work i didn't see her much for the rest of the day since we weren't in the same room but i had to drive her home anyway so at least i would still see her. once our shifts are over we meet up outside of the nursery and get into my car. she looks kind of upset "are you okay" she looks up from her phone. "yeah I'm fine, I'm just dreading going back home it's so lonely" i knew her mum had went back to her own house and i also know exactly how she feels. "you know i don't have the kids tonight, you could always come back to mine" her face immediately lights up "really? you wouldn't mind?" i think i wanted her to come just as much as she did "of course not i get pretty lonely to" we get to my house and i take her inside. we are sitting on the sofa when my phone pings. i look down to see a text from my ex husband. great he wants me to take the girls. it's not even my night with them is she serious? "i cant i busy it's ur night with them" i reply. "yea well i have a date" he answers almost immediately. "yeah well so do i" i knew that was a lie but i couldn't help feel a little jealous. not jealous that we found someone else. jealous of the fact he could find someone else. i know i liked Mia that's for sure but did she like me back? or was she just using me because she's lonely? finally he responds "well i don't care im dropping them off at urs in ten" i roll my eyes. i think Mia could tell something was wrong because she said "Char are you okay you look really pissed" i was pissed. not at the fact i had to have the girls i love having them but the fact he thinks he can just drop them off whenever. i realised i would have to tell her they were coming. "yeah I'm fine but my ex husband is dropping the girls off" she looks kind of disappointed "oh do you want me to go?" why would i want her to leave? does she think i don't want her to meet my children? does she not want to meet them? "no no you can stay. well only if you want to. if you don't that's fine to" i think she could tell i was nervous but i desperately wanted her to stay. "ill stay char but only if you really want me to" she smiles putting her hand on my arm. "yes i do!" i practically screamed at her. "sorry" i giggle "it's fine sweetheart" just then i hear a knock at the door. i get up to answer it and see my ex standing there with my daughters Ava and Caitlin. "Hi girls why don't you run upstairs and put ur stuff away. I'll be up in a minute" once the both of them are upstairs i turn to my ex Adam. "seriously? i told you i was busy" she rolls his eyes "yea well so am i" just then i hear a phone ring. at first i thought it was mine but then i heard Mia pick it up "Hello? no sorry not tonight. okay. ill talk to you later bye bye" i could only hear her side of the conversation but from what i could tell it was a very short one. "who's here" Adam asks. "My friend" i just wanted him to leave why does he care? "what friend" god why freaking out about me having a friend over he's the one going on a date. "Mia. you haven't met her" i can see he's trying to look behind me to see if he can see her. "right and how did you meet this Mia?" why can't he just leave already. "not that it's any of ur business, we work together. now would you please leave" and with that he turns around without and word and gets into his car. then i hear Mia's voice. "Everything alright sweetheart" the nickname gives me butterflies. "yeah just Adam" i roll my eyes. "who were you on the phone to?" "oh just my aunt she wanted to know if i was free for drinks" the fact Mia to her aunt no so she would stay here with me and the girls warms my heart. we go back into the living room and sit in the sofa. then i hear the girls walking down the stairs.
