Thalia's P.O.V

This morning was rougher than others. Explaining to my own children why their father is sleeping on the couch was not a easy subject. Not exactly sure why he did that though. We had two extra guest bedrooms that a fully functional. Knowing Luke, he probably did it for attention.

Mariana, our lead maiden helped the kids get ready. Blake and Blaire were my world. Today was their first day of their new school due to me hating the school system they were in. They both were getting bullied and the teachers weren't doing anything about it. They were calling them spoiled because they had a packed lunch, i would never let them eat that school food i had to grow up with. I could never let them go to school in something so raggedy like dirty clothes or obvious stains on their shirts. So yeah they dressed fancier than others. I got them the clothes they chose out at the store. What killed me was that they would make fun of them because of their hair. Yeah its wild and curly but its beautiful.

Blake and Blair are fraternal twins. They both had thick brown curly hair and bright blue eyes. They were works of art to me. Blake took more characteristics in Luke though. He had a more stronger jaw than Blaire. Poor Blaire would be stuck with that fat baby face until at least age twelve. I'd do anything for my kids, they are the most important people in my life.

"I heard this school is going to have frozen yogurt on Fridays!" Blaire clapped her hands. "No way!" Blake jumped up and down. I laughed and kissed the both on their forehead.

"I promise no mean monsters can get you here. They are long gone and you know if anything is bothering you I'm one call away." I ruffled Blake's hair. Blake was more of the smart one. He was able to do math better than i could ever. He enjoyed science. He was really good when it came to little kiddy homework. Blaire was smart but doesn't really imply herself. She'd rather have a nose in a book and watch documentaries that aren't that very family friendly. I caught her watching the El Chapo series on Netflix a couple weeks ago and i had to give her a time out. That's probably why she had a nightmare.

"Mommy, is daddy going to pick us up today?" Blaire slid her tiny backpack on and made sure she had her magic tree house book in her hand. Before i could answer Luke walked in, "i'm not only going to pick you up but i am dropping you off!" He picked the both of them up and engulfed them in kisses.

This is what i missed. Quality family time. But it's come to the point where me and Luke don't even drive in the same vehicle.

"You are?" I tilted my head in confusion.

"I wouldn't miss the first day of school for anything!" Luke set them down and grabbed their hands. Oh you wouldn't miss the first day of school but you can miss everything else? Funny.

"Well then, you two have a great day! Okay?" I bent down to their level so they could give me hugs. They ran from Luke and gave me a giant hug. "i love you!" They said in unison. That just warms my heart. With that they left.

I wanted to catch up on a book i have been reading lately. It was the perfect day to do so. I had no errands to run today and the staff was most likely gossiping in headquarters like they always did. That's why i enjoyed their company so much.

I got into some lounge around clothes and snuggled up into a love seat in the living room. Our house was a very modern type of deal. Grays and blacks basically occupied the house itself. When me and Luke had bought this house we didn't want to have to worry about finding matching furniture. At this point i wanted to pick out my own furniture. Luke is never here to be complaining about it.

Maybe some nice blues and yellows would look good in here. Maybe get a few throw blankets and pillows on the couches. It basically felt like my own house now that Luke had stopped paying few of the bills. I have to start picking up those now because he obviously doesn't care whether our credit plummets or not. He hasn't even been attending the meetings for the music label. The literal owner won't show up.

I got up and decided to maybe plan a trip to the trampoline park. Everyone was under some stress and I'm sure a little fun won't hurt anyone. It's a friday, everyone is going to be out. I shot Luke a text to see if he was down. Even though i was upset with him i wanted it to seem like we were happy with each other in front of the kids. I didn't want the kids to think fighting was okay. That's the only thing me and Luke could agree on lately.

Can't tonight, meeting up with some friends

Of course he couldn't. Luke had maybe all but three friends. Ashton, Calum, and Michael. Those were his mates, the only people in his contract list other than me. At least i think. 

I couldn't stop him from hanging out with his friends though. That's like Luke telling me I can't hang out with my only friend. My younger cousin Melissa. Yeah i was seven years older than her but she was a chill person. We grew up I would say in poverty. Even though I married into a rich family doesn't mean I wasn't going to make my OWN money. I wasn't a gold digger.

I genuinely loved Luke for his personality but now I'm truly wondering who in the hell i fell in loge with.
