months ago, george and alexandra met at an event and got off to a rough start. the pair become neighbours, hating each other even more.
what happens when george sees a caring side to alexandra he's never seen before. will their mutual hatred return...
"this is ridiculous." george whispers to me and i nod, agreeing with him.
he takes archie out of my arms, and takes hold of my hand before pushing his way through the crowd, checking back to make sure i was alright.
"fuck me." he says, running his hand through his hair.
"that was... something." i say, sitting down on a bench, george sitting beside me.
"indeed." he replies, stroking archie who was still trembling.
"aw, poor baby." i say, stroking his head.
"i think he deserves a treat."
"definitely, can we stop at the shop before heading back? i don't think he's in the mood for a walk now."
"yeah, of course."
a few days later...
the week with sofia flew by, and she as going home today. you didn't want her to leave, it felt too early, but you had to get back to work. sadly, you wouldn't see george again until next friday, and it was only monday. but we text a lot.

"do you have to go already? can't i just bring you to portugal?" i say, giving sofia another hug.
"i wish, but i have to go back to school." she replies, hugging me back.
"well, next time i'm not working i'm taking you on holiday." i say, and she smiles.
"i would love to, but now if i don't go the taxi will leave without me."
"one more hug?"
"one more." she replies, laughing before giving me a hug.
"i'll miss you."
"i know, i'll miss you too. as always. but don't forget to tell me what happens with you and mr neighbour!"
"it's not like anything's happening..."
"you talk to him every day!"
"yeah, but... i don't know."
"okay seriously, i need to go. but call me tonight, clearly i need to talk some sense into you!"
"okay, i'll message you."
i finally let sofia leave and head down to her taxi. as soon as the door shuts i find archie and cuddle him on the couch, both of our favourite things to do.
"im gonna have to leave you as well soon buddy." i say, stroking his back.
"don't worry, you have amara. she will look after you until im back."
i look at the clock on the wall, and realise i had to leave in 1 hour 1/2 for the airport so i needed to get ready.
i go for quick shower to freshen myself up a bit before getting ready. i brush my hair out and leave it natural to save some time before doing some light makeup and finally choosing an outfit from my wardrobe.

as soon as i was ready, i hear a knock on the door. perfect timing.
(english)
"amara! come in." i say, smiling at my best friend and embracing her in a hug.
"thank you, where's the sweet angel?" she asks, hugging me back.
"he's just in the living room. thank you again for looking after him."
"it's no problem at all, he's such an angel."
"isn't he." i say, stroking archie.
"so photoshoot?" she asks, sitting down beside me.
"yes, missus swimwear. kika is there too actually!"
"i've not seen her in ages! tell her i say hi."
"of course, oh my taxi has arrived!"
"go on then, don't be late. and have fun, send photos!" amara says, walking me to the door.
once i was in the taxi heading to the airport, i turn my phone on to click play on my music and notice a message from george, which i obviously had to reply too.
george 🏎️
have fun in portugal, or as much fun as possible without me talk tonight?
of course and thank you
when do you come back to monaco?
thursday, why?
would you like to go for coffee before you leave again, friday morning? we could even take archie on a walk 😉
sounds great george trying to use my dog as an excuse to see me are you?
i don't need an excuse to see you alexandra i've got to go board the plane now.
okay, bye! stay safe
i'm not flying the plane you know?
okay, die then? i don't actually mean that.
i know, but ima serious about the fact lando is screaming at me to come.
sorry!
i finally click play on my playlist and turn my phone off, enjoying the time of calm before the busy days of shooting. i look my job, but i really start to appreciate time that im not busy.
30 minutes later i arrive at the airport and head straight to security, however as i enter the airport people begin to notice me and i get a few fans asking for photos. since i wasn't in a rush to get to my flight, i agree to them and spend a little time talking to them.
