Julie's POV

One last final meeting of the day, and then Mam and I can actually enjoy this city. She was looking impatient - her fingers tapping against the wooden table, forcing everyone to speak quickly. I was day dreaming about our adventures for the day. What would we do? Where would we go? Where do you start? I was excited to say the least. It was another tic off my bucket list, another travel, another place - new faces, new memories. It was all too perfect.

"Anything else?" Mam asked, already standing up and collecting her belongings

"Well there is but-" She quickly cut him off

"Okay come on Jules" Mam stood by the door holding her hand out for me - I quickly went over to her and let her lead us both out to our awaiting car

"Fcking took forever" She complained, helping me in before she climbed in after me

"So now that that's over! What are we going to do?" I asked, all giddy and excited

"First I want to go the salon to cut me hair, and then we can walk along the boardwalk along the beach it's like a fair, they have food and little cute shops! You'll like it" She said breathlessly - she gave the driver the name of the salon and sat back in her seat. She seemed to be letting out long breaths - relieved to have finally finished those long meetings

"I can't wait to cut me hair" She said, running her fingers through her long brown locks

"It's nice to have a change.. Do you think your Mum will like it?" She asked, nerves lacing in her voice

"Mum would love you with or without hair. Her words, not mine" I repeated Mum's words making her smile

"I got lucky aye?" She bit her lower lip, reaching for her phone and typing up a text - which I'm sure it was a text to Mum

"I think we both got lucky" I winked at her - she let out a chuckle and pulled me into her; giving me a tight cuddle. She was really in high spirits today

Julie's POV

"Its not too late to turn back now" I bit my lower lip, watching the hairdresser get her sheers out - Mam's hair washed and ready to be cut

"Look away" She waved her hand, I watched snip by snip as her hair fell to the ground - she decided on a short look. Her hair hovering just above her shoulders - once it was blow dried and curled, it all came together and it suited her well.

"Don't send a picture to your Mum!" She said, seeing my phone out; ready to take a picture of her

"Why not?" I asked, putting my phone back in my pocket

"I want to surprise her" She said shyly - a blush reaching her cheeks. She looked adorable in this moment.

"Okay I won't" I reassured her, deciding not to tease her at how cute she was being. The stylist did some final touches before we were finally able to leave and enjoy our time.

"The boardwalk is just a short walk so we won't be needing the driver" She said, taking my hand in hers - she seemed more protective over here. Almost on edge, as if someone was going to kidnap me - again.

"I can't wait to try all the fatty food" She moaned, subconsciously licking her lips

"I really like your hair like this" I complemented her, playing with the ends of it - she beamed widely

"Well thanks!" She giggled, she was acting like a teenage girl getting a complement from her high school crush

"Come on" I laughed pulling her hand and leading us to the busy Boardwalk - it was a sight to take in.
