@msmelissalin​ (Benjamin) Time: Pre-Awards

Ayda had excused herself from Levent to use the ladies room, taking the moment to touch up her make-up before she made her way back. Coming out of the room, she felt the door collide in with someone, instantly stepping out of the way. “I’m so....” Her words trailing off when she saw who it was. Great. “Sorry...” The businessman finished her sentence.

“Okay, you’re going to have to go through the rules with me again, because it’s been a while and I automatically just want to start playing go fish.”

Aubrey wasn’t sure how she ended up in this situation, sitting in a cafe with a stroller by her side and her baby on her lap as she fed her some sort of mushed up fruit. Her Aunt had to go out of town on a last minute business trip and conveniently everyone else was busy and unable to look after Ivy, normally she would simply pawn her off onto her brother, not wanting to be with her for too long because it caused too much ache and questioning over if what she had done was right, but it seemed not to be the case this time. She hated that she found herself getting caught up in the babies actions too, her smiles and laughs were infectious and her motherly instincts seemed to kick in despite her trying to push them away. Normally she would power through it, finish off their afternoon and then go visit Aaron to see if he could take her for a little while, but she guessed she didn’t account for the possibility of Benjamin walking through the doors and looking in her direction causing her to curse lightly under her breath. She did her best to try and act like she didn’t see him, but she had a feeling that she was being anything but subtle and the other simply wasn’t that naive.

🤕- one of our muses gets injured during a carnival ride/game

Had he been deliberately avoiding his ex-girlfriend after their accidental encounter the other day ? Undeniably so. He wasn’t certain he was in the wrong, however, as he needed to focus on finishing out his last term. Unfortunately, the avoidance strategy was quickly forgotten when he noticed her lying on the ground. “ Aubrey ! ” he called out as he sprinted over. “ Are you alright ? What happened ? ”

Aubrey rubbed at her head as she heard someone call her name, looking up to see her ex sprinting towards her making her groan just that little bit more in embarrassment. “One of the rides backfired and I just was in the wrong place at the wrong time. I’ll be fine. Just need to get back on two feet and ignore my injured pride.”

ben hadn’t planned on seeing them tonight—not here, of all places. yet, there they were, standing across the dance floor looking as beautiful as the last time he saw them. he felt his pulse quicken. for a second, he thought about turning and blending back into the crowd, but they saw him before he could make his escape. he tried to play it cool as he approached them, smoothing the lapel of his suit. "guess neither of us could avoid this forever, huh?"

Where: Sola Restaurant Who: @msmelissalin (Ben)

Ayda knew she would be meeting with Ben and she could feel the uneasy set in. He was the one responsible for killing her best friend's dog and that didn't sit well. She knew it came with a consequence of his actions, but an innocent animal had no part in this war fought between the two. All she had to do was to get through this meeting with Ben before she would have another meeting with Melissa.

She arrived five minutes early, a host taking her to the table reserved for them. It didn't surprise Ayda to find him already sitting there. A faint smile seeps into her features. "Benjamin." This was business. She could do business. The host pulls out the chair for her, sitting down across from the man.
