Alex: Thank god he’s made of steel.

She smiled at her own joke. She heard the shower turn on and got up, walking over to the fridge and pulling out the stuff to make Alice’s breakfast.

Alice woke up to Alex gone, and Brodie not in his crib. She checked the clock and nodded, getting out of bed, over to the bathroom, and in the shower. When she walked out, dressed and clean, she spotted Alex and Brodie in the kitchen. She walked in, and Alex looked up from the paper, smiling.

Alex: Morning gorgeous!

Alice smiled and walked over, kissing her.

Alice: Morning.

Alex: I made you breakfast.

Alice looked over at the plate full of pancakes, sausage and eggs, her heart melting at the sight.

Alice: Thanks babe. You’re the best!

Alex: good to know you’re doing positive things for my reputation.

Alice chuckled and walked over to her plate, taking a seat.

Alex watched her, and when Alice took her seat, she looked over at Alice. They stared at each other, smiling for a bit, just keeping intense love in their eyes, until Alice reached over and scratched the back of Alex’s neck. Alex smiled at her and leaned over, kissing her cheek. Alice smiled back, taking a bite of pancake. Alex winked, and got up, going to get ready for work.

Alex followed Sam, her manager throughout the office. She felt out of place amongst these suits, wearing her purple ChicksLine track suit.

Sam: You’ve got autographs at 12 and a 2 o’clock with Jordan. He wants you for the new She-Jordan line. He’s selling into ChicksLine and apparently wants to do a commercial with you.

Alex: Jordan? As in Michael Jordan? Holy fuck Sam!

Sam: I know, but it’s just a pitch, don’t get your hopes up. We can’t let this guy screw us over.

Alex smiled, thinking that she might get to meet one of her biggest idols.

Sam: And don’t forget about the Girl Scouts meet and greet tonight. You and Mandy Moore, tonight at 6. Got it?

Alex: Yurp. Haven’t seen Mandy in a while, it’ll be good to talk to her again.
