It was a bright and sunny afternoon in LA. The birds was chirping, people was out walking their dogs or riding their bikes. Even the raccoons was out trying to steal a bite but you know who wasn't up and ready....The Harper's. They were snuggled away in bed, enjoying the feeling of their 100% cotton sheets. Isabelle woke up and looked at her phone, noticing what time it was, she jumped up hitting Alexander with the pillow.
"Get up, we're gonna be late. I can't deal with Liv down my neck the rest of the week because we didn't make it on time." She said frustrated running into the bathroom. Alexander looked at the time then walked in after her. "We have some time, it won't be that late when we show up." He picked up his toothbrush putting toothpaste on it. Izzy stuck her head out between the shower curtain looking at him. "You know how she is, I know how she is. She'll make my life hell for the week, making me feel guilty." She stepped out of the shower wrapping a towel around her, plugging in her flat irons as she started brushing her teeth.
"I doubt that's gonna happen. I won't let that happen." As much as Isabelle loved that he wouldn't let anything happen to her, there's nothing he could do about a angry best friend. "I don't know babe, It's not like you could arrest her. She didn't do anything wrong." She smiled walking into the bedroom toward the closet to get dressed. Alex was a detective, right along with Adam who happens to be Olivia's boyfriend. They met through Isabelle and Alexander. The two clicked instantly like Romeo and Juliet... without the family drama and death at the end of course.
"True, we all know Adam would just get her out. I mean he would do anything for her especially after our talk last night at the bar." Alex got out of the shower walking back into the room to a fully dressed Isabelle. "What talk? What did he say?" She asked putting on her earrings. Alex looked back at her with a look of regret. "Huh, What was that?" He asked scratching his chin. "Just talked, what guys do when we hangout at a bar and what not." Isabelle put her hands on her hips.
"Okay, talked about what?" The thing was Alexander hated keeping secrets from his wife but this was important to Adam. The last thing he wanted was running his mouth off to Izzy just so she can go and tell Olivia. He know girls have a code, just like guys have one. He already said too much and now he found himself in a pickle. He sat on the bed looking up at her and sighed.
"He's thinking about cutting his hair all off." Lie number 1. Isabelle walked over to their dresser putting on some lotion. "Oh wow, Isn't it short already? Liv isn't gonna like the idea of Adam cutting his hair off." Alex nodded his head glad she brought it but devastated that he lied. "It was just bar talk, nothing serious. Just things we want to do but won't because our wives wouldn't like it." He laughed slightly. Isabelle turned around and looked at him with a smile. "What is it that you want to do that I wouldn't like?" There he go again, putting his foot in his mouth.
He picked up his watch putting it on his arm. "Oh you know just things like....shouldn't we be in the car, heaven knows we don't want Olivia mad cause we're late." Alex said raising his arms up looking at her. "Shoot, yeah we should get going, meet you in the car." She grabbed her clutch and walked out of the room. Alexander let out a breath he didn't know he was holding, now he just had to hope she didn't bring it back up.
