It's Just My Job

Chapter 2

L E X I E  '  S    P O V

Ugh, Mornings! I hate them. I rolled off my bed taking my phone and setting the alarm off. I swear if my phone wasn't my alarm, i'd throw it to the floor and hit it with three bats and shoot it with a damn gun.

I cleaned myself up, not bothering to look cute today to go to work. I just feel pissed because of mornings. I ate some quick breakfast and did my usual Starbucks routine to wake me up more than I am right now. After driving to the studio and showing them my work ID, which Lou gave me yesterday so I couldn't be "escorted" out of the set, and walked in to the room I was in yesterday. I immediately saw Lou feeding Lux some breakfast.

"Hey Lou." I smiled.

"Hey Lex! Great, you're here. I really need to go to the bathroom. Can you hold Lux for a minute? Harry's still not here and he's always the one that takes care of her." Lou asked me.

"Yeah sure!" I smiled and she left the room. "Hello Lux!" I greeted the little two year old. She smiled at me and I came closer to her.

"So how are you?" I asked in my baby voice.

LIAM'S POV

"Yeah mate. I know, I know. You said she was cute and all that stuff. But you met her yesterday! You can't just ask her out that fast!" Andy spoke through the phone.

"I guess you're right.. I'll call you later. I'm here at work." I spoke quietly.

"Yeah, talk to you later. Don't kill the poor girl!" Andy yelled and I hung up on his face.

After walking past the studio set, I came across Lou looking through some doors.

"Hey Liam!" she said in her usual bubbly self.

"Morning Lou. What are you up too?" my tired voice couldn't help but show.

"I'm great actually, just looking for a bathroom."

"Oh. Where's Lux?" I asked.

"In there. Gotta go!" she ran out of the room. I couldn't help but laugh.

I was going to walk into the room where Lux was in but I stopped myself when I heard some voices.

"Really hun? That's great!" a sweet American voice said. I knew really well who that voice belonged to.

"Yeah and my uncle Louis couldn't stop saying how much you looked like a princess! He wuvs you Wexy!" Lux kept talking and Lexi started giggling.

"You can't love someone you met a day ago Lux." she said laughing.

"But the princess in the story met his prince a day before they got married and lived happy ever after!" Lux tried to reason with her.

"Stories these days tell love tales that, well, can't be true. Maybe the prince just fell a weird instinct and they were obligated to get married because of the rights. I don't know.. But you shouldn't believe those things. Did you see what happened to Anna from Frozen? She got engaged to Prince Hans the same day they met and then he turned out to be someone different." she rambled on. "Maybe I should lay you down here and feed you what Lou left me." I peeked through the door and saw her beautiful face laying Lux on the small couch. Her face showed how much she cared for kids and her kind soul.

Maybe stories like that are true? Well, I don't know. Those are all fiction. Fiction is what a human wants but can't have. A human wants to get married with someone fast, but they can't really do that. A human wants animals to talk, but God didn't want them to talk. It's all a balance. A perfect balance to be exact.
