In another life

19

Omg imagine if that whole thing was just like... a dream?

__—__—

Last night we stayed downstairs and had a special sleepover in the living room, the girls love doing that. Although it wasn't the smartest idea as the girls have school and we are running late now as they had a late night.

"Girls come on we're gonna be late!" The girls come running down stairs in their uniforms.
"Izzy your water bottle is in the kitchen, Elsie sweetheart you can't bring your bunny to school"
"Why not? She's my favourite!"
"You don't want to loose her then, do you?" Elsie thinks for a moment,
"What if Mia buys me a new one?"
"Ha, you'll have to wait for Christmas sweetheart" Mia smirks from the doorway, "but I will look after this one until you get home"
"Okay!"

Izzy comes running back with her bottle and I rush the girls into the car. We are really late.

...

As soon as I get back home I kick my shoes off and go back to the living room. I'm on the late shift today thank god so I have a while to chill before I have to get ready.

I jump onto the sofa where Mia is sat,
"Ugh, I could just call in sick and stay here all day"
"Do it then sweetheart" she smiles, "I'd much rather spend the day with you anyway"  honestly, me too.
"What are you watching?"
"The vampire diaries, I love it"
"Are you a vampire?!" I fake gasp and she laughs,
"No. But I can bite. If that's what you're into" oh...

She laughs even more at my extremely bright red face,
"Shut up" I turn to face the Tv and rest my head on her shoulder, her arm snakes around my waist. I love the feeling of her hands on my body. And I can smell her perfume, it's intoxicating. Honestly I could just spend the rest of my life in Mia's arms and I wouldn't complain once.

"Sweetheart wake up" what?
"Morning sleepy head" crap, I fell asleep! I sit up and adjust my eyes the light from the window
"What time is it?"
"Almost twelve" twelve?! Shit
"Crap I've got work!" I stand up from the sofa. I'm gonna be so late oh my god! "Why didn't you wake me?"
"I just did" I roll my eyes and rush into the kitchen which she follows.
"Sweetheart relax you still have like an hour" she grabs hold of my hands. Oh my god one touch and it's like everything just flies away. How the fuck does she do that? How does she do that to me?!

"Alright I'm calm" she smiles. She's got such a pretty smile. Oh for fuck sake Charlotte get a fucking grip.
"You okay?"
"Mhm. I should really get ready for work" she nods and lets go of my hands. Ugh I hate that. It's a horrible feeling.
"Come with me?" I take hold of her hand again. I like that better.

...

I don't know what exactly it is about Mia that makes me go absolutely crazy. But the wild attack of butterflies every time she's around makes my stomach whirl and my head feel light. When I'm with her I feel like I can be myself, no matter who that is. She won't ever judge, in fact she'd encourage me to be even more crazy. I like that about her. She's like a free spirit who runs her own world, does what she likes and isn't ashamed of it. Her confidence is crazy and admiring and don't even get my started on how unbelievably beautiful she is. Everything about her just fascinates me. I don't think I've ever felt that way about anyone before. Not even Jason. She's different. Mia is different.

"Char?" She calls,
"Charlotte?!" Wait, that's not Mia's voice? "Charlotte!" My head snaps up and I see Carly? Huh? Where am I?
"Finally! You fell asleep. Are you okay?" I'm in the staff room? Wait what? "I swear you've never fallen asleep at work before Char? What's going on?"
"Nothing, I just haven't slept" I shake it off and stand from the sofa. Was it all a dream?...
