Eye to eye | Book 2 - Trent Alexander Arnold

Chapter 19🤍

Ella opened her eyes to discover the next day had presented itself. Trent had seemed to be already awake, scrolling through his phone while cuddling her. Deciding to get up after laying comfortably in his arms for a few minutes, she went to the nursery to say 'good morning' to the twins. They were so adorable with their big boba eyes, inherited from their father, and their chubby little cheeks. Her heart melted whenever she looked at them. Being a mother had changed her so much as a person and she couldn't even remember how life had been without out her little ones. They were the people she loved the most in the entire world. Tahj and Tayah pushed her to become the best mother she could be for them and made her maturity develop. Tahj was a sleepy, calm and content baby who enjoyed anytime he spent with his parents. Tayah was a little drama queen who was filled with energy and joy. It was funny because they both were similar their parents. Tahj was like his dad but definitely acted more like his uncle Jobe and Tayah was just like her mum as Ella was also a drama queen at times. It was learned behaviour. Ella quickly went the the bathroom so she could complete her morning routine before going back to the babies so that she could change and feed them, taking them downstairs.

"Morning my angels." Trent joined his family downstairs and held the babies once Ella had finished giving them their milk. She stayed in the kitchen so that she could make him breakfast due to his strict diet as a footballer and being the only one in this relationship that knew how to cook. Trent played the twins in the living room, putting on their favourite cartoons at the same time. Ella had forbade him to put on 'cocomelon' and said that they weren't allowed to watch it because of how annoying she found it, so instead he put on shows like paw patrol, care bears and such.

"Here you go baby." She gave him his plate and a tissue so that he could eat, afterwards playing with the babies herself. He thanked her straight away and began eating. It was midday so they would have to get ready in an hour so they could proceed with the plan they had hatched out last night.

"How do you think it's gonna go?" He asked her softly before taking another bite of his food. This was going to be interesting to say the least. He still couldn't believe he was going along with this but when it came to Ella, he would always have her back. Adding on to that, Sabrina needed a talking to.

"I don't know. I'm gonna tell her to leave my family alone and stop with this nonsense. She needs to sort herself out." Ella responded, taking the toy Tahj was playing with out of his mouth as both of the twins leaned against her. "Tahj, we don't put toys in our mouth." She continued calmly, making Trent chuckle because of his dirty mind. Tayah was more focused on the TV but would occasionally play with her brother. It was important that they began playing as it was crucial for babies around their age. Ella was going to make sure that her children were developing correctly.

"I just hope it works and she leaves us alone." Trent voiced as he was nearly finished his food, about to make his way to the kitchen.

When it was time to get ready, Ella took the twins upstairs so that she could change them out of their pyjamas and into their clothes. The buggy was always packed with nappies and feeding supplies as always which meant that it left more time for her to get ready. She put on a pair of black leggings and a black hoodie while Trent just wore his tracksuit. It was going to be eventful.

The journey didn't last long. It was only about 20 minutes and when they had arrived to the shopping centre parking lot, Ella wished it lasted longer so that she could really rehearse what she was going to say. It was going to be her first time meeting her and hopefully her last, if Sabrina didn't stop. It needed to be done and to be honest, it was a little overdue as Ella should've spoken to her before. Trent took the double buggy out of the boot and helped Ella put the twins in carefully. Before they even entered, a text had come through...
