Aimie's POV:
I just got out of the shower and put my dressing gown on, Naomi was still asleep and Natalie was doing her make-up in the other bathroom when I received a message.
"Hi Aimie, thank you for letting Naomi come round on yesterday, I really appreciate it" From Natalie's Mum.
"No worries x" I replied.
"Would it be possible if I would be able to spend a lot more time with both Naomi and Nat? It's just I don't see Nat that often and if it's okay with you, would like to get to know her better?"
"Well Natalie, I can't speak for, but I am completely fine with you spending more time with Naomi. Let me know when you're free. x"
"Maybe next Friday after school, we could go for a meal?"
"Yeah, fine with me x"
"Do you mind if you don't tell Nat and Naomi, just because if it's a surprise Natalie may try to reason with me and Naomi and Nat tell each other everything."
Nat had told me about the argument from yesterday, although I am 100% on Natalie's side, her mum was willing to put it all behind her so I didn't have an issue with that.
"Okay, if you think that's for the best x"
I chucked my phone down on my bed and walked to the other bathroom as I had just used the last of the conditioner and we kept the spares in there.
"Nat, can I have a conditioner please?!?" I shouted.
"Yep!" I heard a cabinet shut and then the door opened. Naomi was sat on a stool, and Nat had the contents of makeup bag all over the bathroom.
"Naomi, didn't realize you were awake,"
"Oh, Nat's doing my hair and make-up,"
"That's evident,"
"Aimie, conditioner, " Natalie passed me the conditioner.
"Mum, are we busy Friday night, I know it's our night off, but are we doing anything?"
"Why?" I wondered, I needed a smart way to say no without giving it away, or Natalie interrgating me later.
"A friend has asked for me to go to theirs after school, can I go?"
"Sorry babe, I have already booked for us to go out for dinner that night, maybe another night, "
"I didn't know that, I might have had plans..."
"I know when you have plans because you always ask if Naomi can go with you, "
"Fair point..."It looks like I got away with that one, thankfully, but I know on Friday, Natalie is going to completely flip at me.
