@babertonmuses / Lacey was getting Elena dressed to drop her off at Alfie’s. She still wasn’t amused by this whole situation but of course she couldn’t cut him out completely, not now. So she’d stayed in London and she liked that Trevor hadn’t completely done a runner, that he also still considered Elena partly his too. That’s how Lacey saw it and she was still angry Alfie had kidnapped Elena, even if she’d also done wrong. “Hey.” She looked up as Trevor walked in, smiling a little. Sometimes she still felt a bit tense after everything that happened but progress was happening, right? “Wanna say bye to trouble? Alfie’s picking her up soon…”

[babertonxmusesx]

Trevor wasn’t going anywhere, after they had located Elena and got her back. He couldn’t just leave. They were his family even without Elena being his. He was very hesitant about Alfie taking her for visitation. After getting home, he walked inside and hung up his jacket. He gotten a job at the local bank which was a good thing. Considering they would money and such. “Hey.” He smiled back at her. This was a process for all of them. “Come here trouble.” Moving over to them, he picked up Elena. “How long is he going to have her for?”

[secretmuses]

@babertonmuses / Sarah had finished work and she was all set to rush to the park to meet Harvey for their evening date. She’d taken her hair out of its ponytail as she walked, feeling quite happy. It was still quite a new feeling for Sarah and a lot of it was thanks to Harvey, helping her see she was worth it and that she was worthy of love. She owed him a lot and she was glad to have him in her life. “Hi.” She smiled, a little shy as usual, as she leaned up to kiss him hello. “Waiting long?”

[babertonxmusesx]

Harvey had been busy during the day, painting. He was still under contract, that wasn’t going to change. Only thing that changed was the fact that he wasn’t traveling as much. After he finished showering, he got ready to go and meet Sarah at the park. They had a date and one he certainly planned on keeping. She showed him what actual love was. Not what Kelly and him had. But actual love, and she stayed around. When he seen her, he kissed her back gently. “Hi. No, not really.” He stated, before offering his arm to her. “How was work, love?” 

[secretmuses]

@babertonmuses / Xanthe was irritated. When wasn’t she, though? She was pretty used to it by now. Feeling all wound up and on the edge, ready to blow at any second. “Watch it!” She snapped, pushing past an annoying woman who’d been walking at snails pace and stopping in front of her every five seconds. “Jesus Christ.” She muttered, annoyed, as she kept walking and then came face to face with the one person she wanted to avoid as she rounded the corner. Brad. They had barely spoken since the break up and Xanthe missed him a lot, in a way that was crushing. It was always like he was the only one who truly understood her soul and just got her. Now they were nothing and she didn’t see the point and it kind of frustrated her even more. She turned around and ducked into a store, not wanting to talk to him.

[babertonxmusesx]

Brad needed to get out of the restaurant. At least he wasn’t sleeping in it anymore, which was a good thing actually. Instead he had gotten his own place. Right now though, he was tired of looking at the books. The restaurant was doing very well, which was a good thing and it helped him be distracted from his thoughts. Even if his thoughts were mainly about one person. Xanthe. God, he missed her. He was more of a dick and asshole without her. Everyone noticed that. She got him, understood him maybe even better then what he understood himself. When she turned the corner, he noticed her. Of course he did. How could he not? When she ducked into a store, he followed her. Wanting some confrontation or something. He wasn’t sure at this point. “Avoiding me now?” He questioned when he caught up to her.

[secretmuses]

@babertonmuses / Lilly felt sick today. She just wanted to avoid everything to do with her family and her sister so she was sitting down by the river, watching the ducks and swans float by, the odd cyclist flying by her but apart from that she was pretty much alone in this part. She sighed, taking out her phone and scrolling through her messages. She smiled when she came across Amber’s name and eventually decided to text her friend and see if she would wanna hang out. Even if they just sat here and talked, Lilly wouldn’t mind certain company.

[babertonxmusesx]

Amber was just studying, luckily she had the day off and no classes either. Flipping through some pages, she sighed a little bit. This was honestly the last thing that she wanted to be doing today. Hearing her phone go off, she reached over and seen the text message from Lilly and she couldn’t help but smile. Sending one back, stating that she would be right there. She moved from behind her head desk and got ready. Leaving her place, she walked to river. That was when she seen Lilly and moved over to her. “Hey beautiful. Is this seat taken?” 

[secretmuses]

@babertonmuses / Sasha wasn’t sure what to expect from being here. She didn’t know what to expect from Kane. She knew that she had fucked up big time and probably fucked him up. Hell, she killed his sister’s best friends and lied and schemed her way out of it. But she missed him and she really had liked him, started to fall for him. She had been out of prison for a few weeks now and she found herself outside his apartment, knocking on the door and waiting restlessly, not sure what to expect. She just knew the last thing he’d expect would be to see her today, or at all.

[babertonxmusesx]

Kane had actually gotten a job, but he still smoked his weed. He couldn’t give that up at all. The job wasn’t that bad of one, it kept him busy. The weed helped him from his thoughts. Like Sasha. God that was so fucked up, he admitted that. But he had written her even if he never sent them. He had liked her a lot and she just did what she did. Hearing a knock on his door, he put out the joint and hid his stash. Grabbing the air freshener, he sprayed it around. Spraying himself with some cologne before he went to answer the door. Seeing Sasha standing there, he rubbed his eyes for a moment. Thinking that he smoked to much but when he realized she was actually there, he couldn’t believe it. “Sash? What are you doing here? When did you get out? Or are you in hiding?”

[secretmuses]

@babertonmuses / Samantha had been doing a new show, at a theatre in London. She hadn’t seen anything of Carter at all and she hadn’t received anything in the mail so she had to assume that her sister still knew he was back in Baberton. God, she was glad to be away from that place, though she regretted the fact she didn’t get to know Emma properly. She heard she was in Spain now and that Grant and Jenna were there now too. Proper little happy family. It made Sam angry.

As she walked out of the stage door that night, bag over her shoulder, she saw him and it stopped her in her tracks. “What are you doing here?” She breathed, not having expected to see Harry… maybe ever again.

[babertonxmusesx]

Harry had got his divorced settled, as much as he loved Baberton he needed to get out of there. He would miss being close to Chloe and of course he offered her to come with him. Right now he was just going to London to look at some places, maybe get a decent flat with two bedrooms just in case Chloe changed her mind and decided to come with him instead of staying there. When he landed the plane, the first thing he did was check into the hotel, and then he brought a ticket for Sam’s show. 

When she walked out afterwards, he couldn’t help but smile as he looked over at her. “What if I told you I came to see you?” He questioned, as he moved over to her. He had missed her. There was no question about that. He lifted up the flowers. “Amazing show.”

[secretmuses]

@babertonmuses / David was in Baberton again, just briefly. He wanted to make sure that his daughter was alright after all, since she insisted on staying here. David didn’t have any hope that her mother would be seen again and he felt bad for Gemma to be holding on to any at all. He sat on a bench in the park, watching Ivy play on the climbing frame with a few other children, when he felt somebody nearby. Looking up and seeing Isabel, a smile came over his face. “Is!” He greeted her. “Hey. Long time no see…”

[babertonxmusesx]

Isabel needed to get out of the office, things with Harry well they were no more. They had divorced finally. She had given up trying to figure out who he had an affair with because well she was no better. Enjoying the day as she walked, she smiled to some of the people that she passed in the park. That when she heard his familiar voice. David. “David?!” She questioned a little bit as she moved over to him. “Hi. Very long time. Come here.” Sitting down next to him, she wrapped her arms around to him to hug him. “How have you been? What are you doing here?” 

[babertonxmusesx]

secretmuses:

It had been a long day and Imogen had been looking forward to getting home. Eric and Brooklyn were waiting and she was getting a headache, though that was nothing a couple painkillers wouldn’t fix. But she’d had to stay behind with the kids whose parents and guardians were late picking them up. Grace was last but somehow Imogen had expected it. The girl had been rambling on about her drawing and Imogen was smiling and nodding along with the little girl. She loved her job but some days it was pretty tough when she had to run into people she’d known from the past. Like today… and Emma. She’d been expecting Lauren, not that that was too much better, but Imogen felt stunned a little as she looked up. “It’s no problem.” She smiled, watching the two of them. “We had fun, didn’t we?” She directed towards Grave and then picked up the girls picture and her backpack to go hand over to them.

This wasn’t easy especially running into Imogen, Emma couldn’t deny that she still loved the blonde. But she kept that to herself, and buried it because Imogen was married now, and well she was with Lauren. “We had fun, Mrs. Matthews is very nice.” The redhead smiled down at Grace. “Yeah, she always have been.” She pointed out, when Imogen came back she reached for Grace’s bag. “Again I’m sorry about being so late.” Glancing down for a moment, before she glanced at Imogen once again. “How are you doing?” Of course she had no reason to ask this but she wanted to find out how she was. She missed her a lot actually and wouldn’t say it out loud. It wasn’t her business how Imogen was, but she was curious. And she had some questions as well like if she was happy, if she was enjoying her life. 

[babertonxmusesx]

secretmuses:

Sasha smiled at him, melting into his arms as he wrapped them around her. God, she had missed him so much. There hadn’t been many people Sasha missed but he was one of them. It was amazing she was even out right now and even more amazing he hadn’t completely cut her out of his life after everything. She was a murderer and he still came and he still touched her. “Starving!” She smiled a little, looking up at him. “Can we do a drive thru? I’m craving a decent burger.”

Harvey missed seeing her smile, he held her close after he wrapped his arms around her. He had truly missed her. Which was why he had written her every day actually and gone to see her as much as possible. Of course he wouldn’t cut her out of his life regardless of her being a murderer, she was still a person. And one that he had loved. Looking back at her, that smile remained. “Yeah we can get the drive thru. Got it a decent burger coming up. Come on, let’s get you home.” 

[babertonxmusesx]

secretmuses:

Imogen smiled up at him. She was glad he was happy. This had swirled through her mind, sending her thoughts spinning. “I… think I’m happy, too.” She said slowly, nodding a little as she thought more about it. “I just… I don’t know if I can.. do this.” Imogen didn’t totally rate herself able to raise a kid and… what if history just repeated itself? She was terrified suddenly but she smiled as he kissed her hand. “I love you..”

Hearing that caused Eric to smile more. His own thoughts were spinning as well but they were going to do this. They could do this together. “That is good that we are both happy about this.” Leaning forward, he kissed her forehead gently, looking back towards her now. “We can do this. You aren’t just the only one in this, Imogen. I’m with you in this and I’m not going anywhere.” He wouldn’t bail or anything like that. He was with her. “I love you too. Trust me when I say this is not history repeating itself. I’m with you, we can get a bigger place or something.” 

[babertonxmusesx]

secretmuses:

Imogen sighed, shaking her head. “Only sometimes.” Mitch was pretty back and forth even now, years later, and Imogen had just gotten used to it. “Look, I know it’s shitty you didn’t really get the chance to remember her but you can’t keep doing this…”

“But he is still there sometimes.” Daniel stated, while looking down for a moment. It sucked, he didn’t get to know either of his parents. Both of them were dead. “Charlie and Ruby have been good to me, but it’s not the same. I get that I can’t, it just happens. Maybe I shouldn’t drink around this time. Don’t you ever get so angry about what happened?” 

[babertonxmusesx]

secretmuses:

Charlie laughed, shaking his head. “And I’m sure it would have worked.” Honestly, he enjoyed their little back and forth and he liked when she came here for lunch. “Oh, yeah? Well, I can’t wait to get home.” He chuckled, picking up his water bottle. “You got much else going on the rest of today?”

Brooke chuckled, as she looked over at him. “Oh yeah, it totally would have worked.” Their little back and forth was something that the blonde enjoyed very much. Along with coming to see him on his lunch break. “And I can’t wait for you to come home.” She stated, picking up her own bottle opening it before taking a small sip. Setting it back down onto the desk. “I have to go back to the bakery, I might close early due to having to pick up some groceries and I have to pick up Daniel. What do you want for dinner tonight?” 

[babertonxmusesx]

secretmuses:

Lucy followed him out to the car, feeling in quite high spirits since it had been a good day. And she had to admit that her life was pretty good right now. She was so glad and lucky that things had turned out the way they had, for both of them. “You can drive.” She flashed him a grin. “I’m so tired I might run us into a tree.” It was a joke but still. “I’m glad you had a good day.”

Marcus’s life was pretty well actually. For once he felt content and happy with the way things were going in his life. Honestly he was more open with her than anyone else. “I will gladly drive then. Last thing we need is to run into a tree.” He teased lightly, heading over to one of their cars. It didn’t matter to him which one they took cause they were both family friendly. “I did. Ethan sent an e-mail and case files to look over. Seems like their problem is still not over.” 

[babertonxmusesx]

secretmuses:

Michelle laughed, giving him a little nudge. “Oh, I’m aware… and I don’t have much of a problem with that.” She chuckled, liking the idea of just staying here with him like this. “So you won’t hear me complaining.”

He chuckled a little bit when she nudged him. Landon very much wanted to stay here like this with her. But if she wanted to go out they would. “You sure? Cause I don’t mind either way as long as we are together.” Leaning over he kissed her head gently.
