Chapter 8

Olivia:

I put Cheyenne in the car seat and then into the grocery cart. I decided to take her grocery shopping with me today to get her out of the house.

"That's such a cute baby" An old lady says as she passes by me.

"Thanks" I respond with a smile.

After I made sure she was buckled in, I went down the next aisle with Cheyenne. I grabbed some more soap and hand towels for the house. We went down most of the aisles getting things we needed while I tried to entertain Cheyenne at the same time.

"You think we should get more protein powder for Daddy?" I said to her while holding up a bottle.

"Goo goo" She mumbled in response.

"I'll take that as a yes" I said putting it in the cart.

As I went further down the aisles I found the one with chips. Time to get some snacks for momma. As I grabbed hot Cheetos, a voice called my name.

"Olivia? Is that you?" He said.

I looked over and saw someone I haven't seen in a while.

"Hello Sam" I said.

"Wow, I haven't seen you since-" He began.

"Since you broke up with me" I finished for him.

"Uh yeah... That" He said rubbing the back of his neck.

I just stared at him, wondering what he wanted.

"So uh.. fancy running into you here" He said.

"Well it is a grocery store sooo..." I said pointing out the obvious.

"Yeah.." Sam said.

"Who's baby is that?" He said suddenly.

"What?" I asked.

"Is that your baby?" He said pointing at the car seat.

"Yes, this is my daughter" I said.

"Is it? Did I?" He said.

"As if, no he's not yours Sam" I said scoffing.

"Oh..." He said.

"Well I gotta go" I said.

"Ok um it was nice talking to you?" Sam said.

"Sure whatever" I said as I went to the next aisle.

Time skip...

I finished putting all the groceries away when Shayne walked in.

"Honey I'm home" He said.

"You goof, are you really going to say that every" I said laughing.

"Only for you" He said dramatically.

I laughed and opened the cabinet to put some chips away.

"Where's Cheyenne?" He asked.

"She's in her playpen in the living room" I said.

"Ok, well I'm gonna go upstairs and change real quick before Courtney gets here" Shayne says.

"Courtney?" I ask confused.

"Yeah, remember she agreed to babysit tonight so we could go out?" He said.

"Oh uh yeah, I guess I must've forgot, something at the grocery store distracted me" I replied.

"You ok?" He asked coming closer and putting an arm on my shoulder.

"Yeah I just saw someone from the past" I said.

"Who?" He asked interested.

"Sam" I said.

"Sam?" He repeated.

"Yeah" I said closing the cabinet.

"Do you want to talk about it?" He asked.

"Not really" I said.

"Ok, well I'm always here if you need to talk" Shayne said.

"Thanks babe" I said kissing his cheek.

He smiled at me and then went upstairs to change. About five minutes after I finished putting the last of the groceries away the doorbell rang.

"Goo" Cheyenne said in response to the sound.

"That's right aunt Courtney is here" I said to her.

I didn't bother to look through the eyehole before opening the door so imagine my surprise when it wasn't Courtney on the other side.

"Sam!?" I said suprised.

"Hey sorry I didn't mean to intrude" He said.

"Then why and how the fuck are you here?" I asked.

"I have a friend who lives nearby who saw you around here" He said.

"... Can I help you?" I asked annoyed.

"Hey Olivia ready to-" Shayne said appearing behind me.

"What's going on here?" Shayne asked looking back and forth between me and Sam.

"Nothing Sam was just leaving" I stated.

"Wait I just wanted to say one last thing" Sam said.

"What" Shayne said sternly.

"I'm sorry" Sam said.

I looked at him as he walked back to his car and left before turning to Shayne.

"You wanna talk about it?" Shayne asked.

I nodded my head as I closed the door. Shayne held my hand as we walked back to the couch and sat down.

"Why does my heart feel weird?" I asked.

"What do you mean?" He said.

"Like I feel like I should be mad at him for breaking up with me and ghosting me and then just now talking to me but I don't know" I said.

"I think it might be because he finally apologized" He said.

"What?" I said.

"You are one of the kindest and understanding people I know, you see the best in everyone and try to put yourself in their shoes, you are conflicted because you want to be mad at him but your good nature won't let you" Shayne said.

"I guess you're right" I said.

He gave me a smile as there was a knock on the door.  Shayne got up to answer the door.

"Hey Court" He said.

"Hey Shayne, hey Liv" She said smiling at us.

"Hey Courtbort" I said.

"Where's the little girl at?" Courtney asked curiosity walking in.

"She's playing with her toys in the playpen right now" I said.

"Oo I can't wait to see the bundle of cuteness" Courtney said going to the playpen.

"I'm going to go get ready" I told Shayne.

"I'll be here waiting with anticipation" He said.

Time skip...

"Ok one last thing, no sweets or snacks for Cheyenne after seven" I said to Courtney.

"Yes, yes, c'mon guys, go on your date already, I'll be fine" Courtney said ushering us out of the door.

"So what do you want to do?" Shayne asked as the door shut.

"You mean you didn't plan anything?" I asked suprised.

"I was kinda thinking we could just be spontaneous" He said shrugging.

"Oh my god" I said laughing.

"Soo, any ideas?" He asked.

"Well...." I said.
