hey, so I got a job so I could have extra spending money. And well, I'm working at the Diamond Club.

clearly your guilt got the best of you, huh? i mean, okay? what do you want me to say? you're a grown ass woman.

promise not to tell our parents? doubt they'll ever see me as anything other than their baby.

promise. what does shawn have to say about this career choice?

thanks! uh... he doesn't know yet. i'm gonna come clean next time we hang out though. I know I should have told him but our relationship was still new and I didn't want to scare him, then it just kind of became my 'dirty little secret'. Was sort of hoping I'd quit before he ever found out.

Secrets always come out. Especially the dirty ones. I’m here if you need me.

thanks sis. i'll need a girl's night if he dumps me.

how are you doing btw? is saint noah still being super nice? i'm not all old and wise like you but I'm still here if you need me.

I don’t think he will break up with you, and if he does, then it wasn't meant to be.


I know that comment came from love, but it stung. I’m not old. I’m 32. I can still have babies if I want. And yes, very much so. He’s always going to be perfect. He’s fucking British and wired differently. :teary:

How’d it go with Shawn?

he wasn't happy but he didn't dump me.

how are things going with noah?

See, you were stressing for no reason.

A lot better than I expected. He’s looking for places for us to move to.

hold up, you two are moving back in together already?

Yeah. It’s what he wants, and at this point, I’m willing to do whatever I have to keep my family together.

I know you want to keep your family together but are you sure you want this? you don't sound certain and you probably shouldn't do it unless you want it too.

It's what I want. When he initially asked, it just caught me off, guard. I think I'm more confused with how quickly he wants everything to go back to normal. I thought it’d take more than me just saying I miss him. We slept together too.

not wasting any time getting back into the way things were, huh? if it's what you want, and you're happy, I'm happy. how is my favorite niece taking to all this?

I’m happy, really happy, but I do still have this overwhelming feeling of dread. Like something terrible is going to happen, but I think it's just my anxieties getting the best of me.

She’s happy and she likes that he's around more. We both do.

You going to be okay without me for two months?

don't worry sis, i'll be fine. you sure you're gonna be okay dealing with all the craziness for two months?

Noah said you can come out and visit if you want to. He’d pay for it too.

I mean, no. But I think it’ll be worth it in the end.

That would be killer but you know better than anyone, it's hard to just accept a gift like that. I can offer even more free babysitting of the cutest kid ever though. :winkytongue2:

It will be. You are going to create some amazing memories!

We won't ever say no to free bsbysitting. :feelinmyself:

That and Harper just got her Daddy back. I didn't want him to be ripped away from her again.

Sounds like a deal.

That's true, and cute. I'm glad things are working out, you two are meant to be. And I love seeing you and Harper so happy.
