-A WEEK LATER-

EMILYS POV

It's one week till Penelope's birthday and I still don't have any ideas about what I could do for her birthday

I know that she might not be able to remember it, when she is older but I want to make all of her birthdays special 

So that I can make memories with her, that I can tell her about when she is older and show her photos and videos of it

Talking of making memories, recently because Conor has apparently been so busy, we haven't been in touch

I mean he texts me from time to time but he hasn't facetimed me or called me

I would say that I am hurt by this but Conor has hurt me before in many different ways, so I guess I am just numb to it

Anyway, over the past couple of weeks, I have been visiting the closest gym to the flat to try and get in shape because I've been feeling sluggish and in need of loosing a bit of weight

I mean I didn't do any exercise after Penelope was born, so I need to get toned again

I said to myself that, I would try and go to the gym at least twice if not three times a week

But at the minute, I'm fitting it into my everyday schedule

 I can, I try and fit a jog in at night and I run around the block with Penelope in the pushchair

Mikey looks after Penelope for me, whilst I go to the gym as I can't take her with me

Every time I see him, he says they I am over doing it and that I'm going to make myself ill

He just needs to calm down, I bet he doesn't even know what the inside of a gym looks like

I'm not even sure, if he knows what the word gym means

I am now currently, on my way to the gym for the second time this week

Before I left, I made myself a protein shake, leaving Mikey in charge of Penelope at my flat

Sorry Conor, Jack and Josh's flat

As I stop at a red light, I grab my protein shaker bottle out of the cupholder and I take a drink of it before I place it back, just as the light turns green

Soon enough, I get to the gym and I pull up into a car parking space, near the building before I exit the car and grab my backpack off the passenger seat

I unzip the small front pocket of my backpack and slide my hand in before I pull out my membership card

As I walk into the reception, I scan the card and the doors open so I can go into the changing rooms

I walk down the short hallway and I go to the female changing rooms before I go over to the lockers

I open one and I lean my backpack on the edge of it, so I can get my water bottle, phone holder, phone and headphones out of my bag

Once I have everything I need, I push my backpack full of my things, into the locket before putting a pound in and locking the door

I take the lock and secure it around my wrist before I strap my phone holder around my bicep and walk out of the changing room

I get into the gym as I plug my headphones into the bottom of my phone and I slide it into the holder

Through the holder, I press shuffle on my Spotify playlist

I go over to the treadmill and step on before I put my headphones in

I set the treadmill up and press the green start button
