*one month later*

George's alarm began going off at around seven o'clock the next morning. He groaned and rolled over onto his stomach with a pillow over his head, his fingers slid over the buttons until he found the snooze button. His eyes slid open slowly not wanting to get up just yet, but he had to. He reached his arm out and draped it around Asia's waist and pulled her body close to his. His eyes grew heavy the longer he laid in bed and he was almost asleep again until Asia's alarm on her phone went off. A sigh slipped past her lips as she pushed herself up from the sheets, causing George to groan and pull the sheets tighter around himself. She grabbed her phone off its charger and turned off the blaring alarm.

"You awake?" Asia asked while running her eyes.

"Hardly." George replied. Asia blushed deeply in the dim light, she loved his morning voice she always found it really attractive.

"You better get ready, you've got to meet Devin and Riley there at eight." Asia told him, she tossed the blankets aside them pulled her slippers on. She flicked the lamp on, causing George to pull the blankets over his face. This morning George and Devin had to meet with a principle for a preschool, to be honest he wasn't too sure how to feel about the meeting today. What if they didn't accept Riley because of how he looked? Or what if they found out that him and Devin weren't together? Would they deny Riley because of that? He tried to calm himself. Devin had done this before, so hopefully she'll be able to help him relax and fill him in on what he should expect. He sighed and pushed the covers off of him then stood up and made his way to the bathroom. Asia stood in front of the mirror washing her face, she wasn't coming with them but she did have some things to do today while he was out. He pushed back to glass door of the shower and turned the water on, making sure it was warm before he got in. 

"How do you think it'll go today?" Asia asked, George was currently scrubbing his hair.

"Not sure yet, hopefully it'll be good and they'll accept her."

"What's this meeting for anyway? You never told me exactly."

"They're going to decide if Riley should attend the school, plus they want to meet her before they make any final choices."

"She has a magical way of making people fall in love with her, so she'll do great." She replied, rubbing on some liquid foundation.

George chuckled, his laughter echoing around the bathroom. Asia smiled widely, his laugh always made her feel happy.

"Yeah, that she does."

George finished his shower, wrapped a towel around his waist then stood in front of the mirror and shaved his facial hair then brushed his teeth. Asia was now getting dressed and with her input, George got dressed in five minuets tops. He wore a long sleeve white button down shirt, black jeans, and a pair of black dress shoes that his mom had picked up for him. He grabbed his keys, phone, and wallet off the dresser, then ran down the stairs. It was now seven thirty two and he still needed to drive out to Victorville.

"I'll see you later today okay?" George told Asia, he gave her a quick kiss on her cheek before running out the door. He knew that he would hit traffic if he didn't hurry up. He climbed into his car, put on his seatbelt, then started the engine. He put in the address to the preschool in his GPS, threw his car in reverse then headed off to meet Devin. Thankfully he got to the preschool ten minuets before the scheduled meeting. He pulled his car into an empty space, cut the engine, then climbed out of his car to go meet Devin.

She stood outside the main entrance, waiting for him patiently, Riley on the other hand was not. Riley held onto Devin's hand and was bouncing up and down excitedly, her eyes were illuminated and her smile was huge. She looked so cute with a white t-shirt, the dove and grenade hoodie, and a pair of grey sweats. Her hair was pulled into a sleek side ponytail and had a black bandana tied around her head. Her overall look reminded him of a mini gangster. This made him smile, obviously Devin really played up the whole j3t's daughter thing. Devin looked great today as well. She wore a simple white tank top, black leggings, black heels, and a mid thigh dark purple cardigan.
