James Maslow: Chances

James Maslow: Chances PT 51

Kendall and you both talk by the counter for about 15 minutes. Mia slowly stands.

"Mommy." Mia says as you look over at her.

"I'll be back in a minute." You say before walking over to Mia.

You kneel down before her.

"Are you ready to talk?" You ask Mia.

Mia nods and hugs you as she starts sobbing.

"I'm sorry I was rude to Jamie, mommy." Mia sobs squeezing you.

You stroke her hair.

"It's okay, honey." You say kissing her head. "Why were you rude though?"

Mia opens her mouth ready to speak when Kendall walks over and kneels beside you.

"Hey Mia." Kendall smiles as Mia hugs him. "So did you guys sort out whatever you needed to sort out?"

"Just about to, I was wondering why she was rude to James earlier." You say as Kendall looks at Mia before looking at you.

"Rude? Rude how?" Kendall asks standing beside you as Mia holds your hand.

"For some reason she thinks James is mean or something." You shrug.

"Oh that's no good..." Kendall says softly. "Uhh maybe she's just upset."

"Why would she be upset?" You ask confused.

"Who knows?" Kendall shrugs. "Maybe she thinks you're giving James too much attention, she might think James is trying to steal you away from her."

You look at him and look down at Mia.

"Is this true Mia?" You ask kneeling down. "Do you think James may steal me away from you?"

You look at her; she looks back at you and looks up at Kendall. Kendall nods his head as Mia slowly starts nodding. You hug her tight.

"Baby, it's never going to happen." You say picking her up. "You're my little girl, James can never take my attention from you."

Mia hugs you back as you walk back to the kitchen with her and Kendall following.

"How did you know that she was feeling like that?" You ask Kendall curiously.

Kendall shrugs.

"It uh was just a suggestion, turns out I was right." Kendall chuckles. "Now, how about the beach?"

"What?" You ask laughing a little placing Mia on the bench.

"You were going to go it the beach, can I join?" Kendall asks as you heat Mia's breakfast that James and you cooked earlier.

"Oh uh..." You say rubbing the back of your neck. "I was going to take Mia a bit later and-"

"I don't have plans." Kendall says smiling.

"You don't work?" You ask placing the plate back in front of Mia.

"We're going to the beach!" Mia squeals eating the bacon.

"Yeah I do, but I work from home." Kendall says. "I work my own hours."

"Must be fun." You mumble pouring yourself a glass of water.

"Eh it gets lonely as opposed to when you're working in a business and you have company." Kendall replies hearing you. "What about you? What do you do back in LA?"

"I'm a zoo keeper actually, I work with animals." You smile.

"Really? That's awesome!" Kendall smiles. "It was always your dream to do something with animals."

"I love it but on my days off, I run my business called Speedy Motors." You say.

"So you didn't just give up your skills of being a mechanic? You created your own business?" Kendall asks sounding amazed.

"I did." You say proudly. "I got everything I ever wanted."

"I'm glad you did." Kendall says. "You've done well for yourself."

You smile to yourself thinking about your business and the animals back at the zoo; you really did do well for yourself.

"Mommy, beach." Mia smiles as she finishes her breakfast.

"You want to go to the beach now?" You ask. "But what about Jamie and uncle Los?"

"Please mommy." Mia pouts as you sigh.

"We don't have a ride until Jamie or uncle Los gets back love." You say stroking Mia's cheek.

"I can drive you." Kendall suggests. "As I said, I'm free for today."

You look at Kendall debating whether to go with him to the beach or wait...
