TAYLOR POV
Today was Halloween and I was extremely excited to be spending the whole day and evening with Adam and Lottie.
Last weekend we spent the entire day on Saturday looking at costumes and planning what we were going to dress up as....with Lottie changing her mind every 5 minutes ("We should go as characters from Shrek! Or no, we should be witches! Let's be vampires! Let's be characters from Frozen! Let's be cats!). Finally we decided on dressing as Anna, Kristoff, and Olaf from Frozen, as Adam had expected since it was her favourite movie. We found outfits for both Adam and I, but couldn't find an Olaf costume for Lottie. This had made her tear up and not want to trick or treat anymore, until I told her I could make her one the next day since I had a sewing machine and had gotten pretty good at costume making thanks to my job. This lead to both Adam and Lottie spending the entire day on Sunday in my apartment while we measured and sewed her costume, and baked cookies, and went to the playground, and had dinner.Adam didn't want to show too much affection around Lottie, but when she was asleep or not around he was all for having his arms around me,whispering things in my ear, and stealing kisses whenever possible.
I ended up spending every evening of this week at their apartment having dinner and playing games till Lottie went to bed, but always returned home overnight, having not quite broached the 'sleepover with Lottie around' issue.
I woke up early, anticipating Adam and Lottie's arrival to start our day, and made finger shaped pancakes with raspberry 'blood' sauce.
ADAM POV
At 6am I heard my bedroom door creak open and the sound of little footsteps approaching the bed.
"I hear a little monsters sneaking up beside me...." I said in my Gru voice, making Lottie giggle and climb up onto my bed and then sit on my chest.
"Rawr!" Lottie said, holding her hands up like claws and then laughing again.
"What are you doing up little monster?" I asked her as she lay down on top of me.
"It's Halloween daddy! And we are going to Tay's house and I get to see my costume!" She said, with much more energy than anyone should have at 6am.
"How about we hang out in bed for an hour more and then we will get up?" I tell her, making her pout and nod as she lay back on my chest.
I loved it when she lay on top of me because it reminded me of when she was really little and the only way to get her to sleep was to lay her on my bare chest and sing to her. The innocent days.
By the time my alarm went off at 7 Lottie was literally buzzing with excitement.
"COME ON DADDDY! We have to get ready!" Lottie screamed as she ran down the hall to her room. I followed behind at a slower pace. She had chosen orange and black striped tights with a black long sleeved dress and cat ears today and was busy getting dressed when I came in.
"You all sorted there Lots?" I asked her as she stared at her tights.
"Can you help me with these daddy....I don't know which sides the front." She replied handing me the tights as I sat on the only adult sized chair in her room and lifted her onto my lap to get her tights on.
"OK.....you can go watch TV while I get dressed and then we will go to Taylor's" I told her, letting her go to the living room.
TAYLOR POV
At 8am sharp there was a series of knocks on my door.
"TAY TAY!" Lottie squealed as soon as I started opening the door, she launched herself at me and hung onto my legs.
