I never went to work that night. I was told not to go in because it was for makeup, and we could always have done the photography another time. Luke did stay for the days I was off of work, as well as the days I wasn't. He kind of moved in with me the first day I met him and honestly, if my mother ever found out, she would've been so furious, which I could understand, but from the first words Luke spoke to me, you could tell he wasn't a bad person at all. He was one who didn't want drama, and only done something if there was a reason behind it.
The day that I had to go back to work, came around quickly- too quickly for my liking. Luke had been staying for about a month or so and it was still going really well- we'd become really close friends, and were learning new things about one another everyday.
Before I headed off to work Luke and I spent a few hours talking while Skye went to sleep. I discovered a lot about him in the few hours we'd had together. I knew that he liked penguins, his favourite colour was blue, he got nervous around people and in new situations, he loved his family like nothing I've ever heard of, he is in a band and his passion for guitar and music is crazy- but a cute crazy. Bonus fact, he had no girlfriend because girls just 'use him for their needs.' Which disgusted me as he thought all girls were the same. One thing he refused to tell me was his job, of course I was anxious at the start, but he promised to tell me when the time was right- which I just let slide.
He had also found out quite a lot about me. He knew that my favourite colour was burgundy, I love most music genres, I also play guitar and my job is a stylist but to model different styles of clothes that people had come up with as well as being the photographer for some of them.
"I better start getting ready," I sighed as I got myself off the sofa.
"Is Skye awake yet?" he asked standing up too and stretching.
"No not yet, I will wake her up now for you if you want."
"It's alright, I was just wondering if she says night to you or anything before you go, seeing as she sleeps in your room a lot?"
"Well, thankyou for the consideration but usually she comes with me and spends the time either running around, sleeping or modelling some random clothes I'd made for her. So I'm not too sure if she'd like to or not. I will go and wake her to tell her I'm going." Luke waited on the sofa as I went to get Skye up.
"Skye," I called quietly "I'm going to work in a bit so I'm going to leave you with Luke for a while. Is that okay?"
"Yeah, but don't be too long. I will miss you too much." she said, rubbing the sleep from her eyes and reaching her arms out to grab me. I picked her up and took her down to the kitchen to get her some food. "What would you like for dinner?" I asked looking through the cupboards.
She pointed to the grapes in the fridge and I laughed. "You can't have grapes for dinner, Lovely, maybe if you're good you can have a fruit salad after." Her eyes lit up and I mentally sighed, knowing she'd always want that from then on. "How about something small for dinner? Like, mash and-"
"Saugage" she shouted, now wide awake.
"Sausage?" I asked, laughing and she nodded her head.
"Sorry, Mimi, what time do you start work?" Luke asked.
"Well I have to leave here around 3, why?"
"Well it's kind of 2:15. you have 45 minutes..."
I gasp and place Skye on a barstool, "looks like you're going to have something quick tonight and I wont be able to get the guitar out, sorry Babe." I kiss her forehead as she pouted at me.
Luke saw her reaction and stepped in. "Hey, Mimi, why don't you go get ready, I will get the food sorted, then you can leave, knowing she will be safe at home and happy while you're earning some money and doing something you love." I looked at him, debating whether or not to go and trust him, not sure if he'd be okay with Skye on his own. "You know I do know how to look after little children. I've done it many times before, you've nothing to worry about."
"Okay," I decided. "but please make sure she is in bed by 7, tuck her in, sing to her or whatever and make sure she brushes her teeth um, call me if anything happens and I mean anything, okay?" he nodded his head and laughed lightly. "Anything else?" I asked, going over everything in my head.
"Listen, please stop worrying. Go get ready now because you've not got long till you have to leave."
"Okay, okay, okay." I rushed around my room, looking for something to wear. "Will I have to go through a wardrobe when I'm there or will I be taking the photos? Why do I even like this job?!" I ran my hands through my hair, and paced about my room.
"Hey, just wear this." I looked behind me to see Luke holding Skye on his hip and holding an outfit for me.
"Oh, white jeans and champagne sparkle top, I like your style." I smiled.
"Don't forget the nude coloured shoes." he said, holding up a pair of nude heels. I stood there shocked.
"You know your fashion," I said and he laughed.
"Well I will let you in to a little secret, Skye chose these and told me what they were called, so really it's Skye's style."
Still I was shocked, my four year old little sister choosing out my gorgeous outfit.
"Thankyou so much Skye!" I praised, kissing her head again and she smiled at me. "now shoo shoo so I can get changed!" Luke left my room, running down the hallway with Skye, god forbid if he had dropped her.
I checked over my outfit once more and continued with my makeup. With my hair in curls, I walked out, ready to hit work whether it be for modelling or photography, I was prepared for both, it was my first night shift and I was regretting not having a sleep beforehand, but I relied on the energy and atmosphere of the studio to keep me awake.
A'N I have no idea when to update haha..
