Lucy's POV

We finished our meal and headed back to the office. The car ride was silent but peaceful and for some weird reason there was a light drizzle. As we drove back to work I stared out of the window admiring the way the city looks when it is starting to rain, everyone magically pulling out their black umbrellas and other walking or jogging quickly to their destination without an umbrella. I watched the droplets on the window race down to the bottom of the glasd and laughed to myself at how much I missed being a child. Be then Jerry had turned the radio on and Sam Smith's song 'I'm not the only one' came on. I listened to each lyric, carefully deciphering the song in my head and remembering the music video. I couldn't help but think that this song was my current situation some of the lyrics reminded me of some recent events

But when you call me baby I know I'm not the only one

Theses lyrics kept playing through my head and then I remember a conversation I had with David where he called me baby, I mean he never calls me baby. Ever. Is he cheating on me? My heart starts to hurt and my eyes start to water but I force myself to think of something happier like how I am going to be a mother. I wonder if the baby will be a girl or a boy? What should we name him or her? If it is a boy should we get him circumsized? I wonder if she or he will have blue eyes or brown? Should I find out if it's a boy or girl or should I wait? All these questions made me forget about everything I was thinking of before and immediately I was happy.

We arrived back at work and I ran inside quickly. Jerry walked me back to my office making small talk and sharing a few comforting smiles. When we reached my office I gave him a hug and thanked him for lunch and then walked into my office. I walked over to my office desk, sat down and snatched up the heat pump controller and turned it on to a warm and sensible heat. I turned on my computer and while I was waiting I checked my Facebook on my phone, nothing much was happening I just had a few game notifications and Amber had uploaded a few pics of her new home and adorable family. Shortly after the computer was on, I typed in my password and waited. I checked my emails made a few phone calls and replied back to urgent messages, this took an hour and a half so it was nearly time for me to finish work the time was precisely 3:23pm so I had seven minutes to spare. I decided to go over the line up of who I'll be working with on The Revival film again just so it's fresh in memory, I looked at the time again and it was 3:31pm. Finally. I pack everything up and head out, bumping into a few co-workers here and there, chatting a little. I get into my car and pull out onto the road, oh my word! The streets are overrun with vehicles and people, I didn't realize we had this many people in Seattle... wow just wow. This has got to be the worst rush hour in the history of rush hours. Why doesn't school finish at 2:00pm instead 3:00pm? I am stopped at a red light we I put a CD in, Destiny's Child. Emotions come on and I blast it in my car with my windows up (although I don't think glass and metal could contain how loud it is) I sing a long with the song while driving

It's over and done but the heartache lives on inside, and who's the one you're clinging to instead of me tonight?

In the words of a broken heart it's just emotion taking me over caught up in sorrow lost in the song but if you don't come back come home to me, darling
don't you know there's nobody left in this world tohold me tight nobody left in this world to kiss goodnight, goodnight, goodnight

After the song is finished, I realize that I am nearly home and it's only 4:15pm. Woo! I miss David.

I unlock the door to my house and leave it open to let some air circulate, the dark clouds habe cleared up, which only leave the white fluffy ones (my favorite) and the sun is peaking through the clouds, streaming light breaking through and touching my front yard and everyone else's around mine. I go upstairs and change into a big jumper and some shorts. I go on instagram and take a photo of the sun shinning through the clouds with the Nashville filter and post it with the caption 'relaxing in the sum sun, just letting off steam' (see what I did there?) Then sit on my porch and scroll through Twitter and Facebook. At about 4:45pm I get up and go back inside and make me a snack, cheese and crackers with tomato. After my snack I go over to the couch and start reading the last book of The Maze Runner trilogy 'Death Cure' it's so interesting. Of about an hour of reading I have read 14 chapters, 14 amazing chapters I might add and decide that I'm going to surprise David at work and give him a quick little visit.

David's POV

I finish at 5:00pm today so I'm going to stay at Emily again, she just takes my mind of all the baby drama because first of all she takes pregnancy pills and second of all she's fun.

I get to her house at about quatre past five and see her beautiful face smiling at me as I walk up onto her porch. She lifts her arms up and drapes them around my bringing me into a tight hug and planting a kiss on my cheek. We walk inside when I notice it's dark and there are candles lit... what's going on? Emily leads me into the dining room with my eyes closed and seats me at the table, assuming across from her, I hear another chair pulled out and Emily calls telling me to open my eyes. To my surprise the dining table is filled with a romantic dinner, red strawberry flavored candles, rose petals, turkey, wine and her fine China that she keeps in her cabinet because they her grandmother's. She smiles "Do you like it?" "Do I like it? I love it! But what is all this for?" I ask curiously "You silly! I just wanted to apologize again, for how I acted yesterday... I was out of line and emotional I'm so sorry David. I love you" she replied "Well apology accepted but you really didn't have to go to all this trouble love" "I wanted to" she said grinning "Well thank you. I love you" I smiled generously. This is by far the best day I've ever had.
