Light The Hours

First topic message reminder :

Alice sat on the couch with her legs spread while on her side holding an Xbox controller. Her gaze was fixed on her game intensely. She wore a tank top that showed her belly button in which was obviously pierced and plaid pink pajama pants. Beside her, her iphone was playing music. It had been a while since she had sat down to play since she was always on her tippy toes with her two year olds Jordan and Finley. She had to give it to herself, for a single mother she had done pretty well and keeping in shape was probably her best asset as of now. She glanced over into the play pen she had stuck them in with toys and exhaled in relief to see them entertained. "Who would've thought?" She grumbled.

Colton caught the block and shot the other a glare before dropping her toy and walking out.

Finley giggled and calmed down as he was attacked.

Jordan stuck her tongue out and stood up, shaking the crib wanting out.

Alice put Finley down followed by Jordan and grinned.

Jordan ran around the house screeching loudly.

Finley grabbed her sister's diaper and pulled it down.

Alice only shook her head and sat on the bed. Everything had become so messed up within the last few years. She turned on the tv and began to watch a movie before falling asleep.
"Come on, get up you guys are going to be late for school. Brush your teeth and do your beds!" She said enthusiastically while banging on the door. "Jordan I'm sick and tired of having to go to the chool beause of your suspension next time I'm taking away your phone and laptop." She huffed. "I can't believe this escalated up to the principal."

Jordan rolled her eyes and mocked her mother behind the closed door, ignoring her request to make her bed she walked into the bathroom to brush her teeth.

Alice shook her head and waited for her kids before getting in the car and driving off to the school. She glanced back at Finley and kissed her head. "I'll see you later." She walked over to the office beside Jordan. "They're probably going to have to make me stand beside you all day." He huffed.

Finley ducked before her mother could kiss her head and quickly jumped out of the car to meet up with her friends.

"Don't be so over dramatic mother." Jordan huffed and rolled her eyes.

"Alice, he will see you now. Jordan you can take a seat and wait out here." A small lady with a tight ponytail and large framed glasses said, and lead Alice to the principles office.

Alice walked into the room and grew pale as she noticed who it was. This escalated quickly. She gave an awkward cough and looked away.

"Hey Alice." Jackson greeted with a small wave. "Did you really think I wouldn't find her?"

Alice glanced at Jordan than back to Jackson and sighed. "I knew it'd come by."

"So, I already talked to her about it." Jackson shrugged and began to toss a baseball up in the air to catch it, and throw it up again. "I'm not going to have to fight you for custody right? I mean, I only really need the weekends."

"No I don't mind if she wants." Alice looked at Jordan curiously then back to him.

Jackson nodded. "Alright, well just thought I'd let you know that if she gets suspended two more times she's gotta be expelled by law."

"Are you kidding me Jackson? She's your daughter. You're the principal." Alice said staring at him in disbelief.

"I can't interfere with the law." Jackson said and held his hands up in defense.

Alice huffed and looked away. "Fantastic." She blinked and looked at him curiously

"What?" Jackson asked as he noticed her looking at him.

Alice huffed. "Nothing it was nice seeing you again." She said a bit disappointed and offered her hand.

Jackson took her hand and shook it gently as he stood up. Towering over her he slowly pulled her in to whisper in her ear. "Let me know when vibrators get boring." He smirked and walked over to begin to open the door for her.

Alice blinked in surprise at his comment, and eyed him cautiously. "Alright. Tonight. My place." She responded and began to make her way out. "Come on Jojo, we can go out for breakfast."

Jackson grabbed her by the arm before she could leave and pulled her back. "Do you really think the kids wont know whats up?"

"I don't need to hide it." Alice responded. "Besides doesn't Jordan already know?" She said beneath her breath.
