They all woke up at 7 am the next day, with Paige on the driver's side, Isabella on the passenger's and the rest of the family at the back, they were all silent as they made their way to the airport. You could see the tears about to fall from Michelle's eyes at the meer thought of leaving Isabella alone for 2 months.
//
"I don't know what to say..."
Christen reached over and gave her wife's hand a squeeze as she tried stopping the tears that were about to fall.
"Isabella and I haven't been apart for that long. 2 months. I know we're going to send her off to college so we'll see each other before then but we haven't left each other's side ever since she was born. The longest we had been apart was a week and those were 7 dreadful days. This is going to be 61 days and I- I don't know. I guess it's just hard for me to accept the fact that she is growing up and I have to let her go."
Michelle sniffled and wiped her eyes.
"She's my baby and will always be my baby."

Isabella cleared her throat as she watched her Moms and her sisters start walking towards their private jet. The married couple turned around and opened their arms, letting Isabella crash into them and pulling her into this big family group hug.
"I-I'm gonna miss you guys so much. Mom, please don't do anything stupid.'
"When have I done anything stupid?"
Christen and Isabella gave her a look, even Aquila and Diana were looking at their mother weirdly.
"Okay fine but enough about me.'
She turned to her eldest daughter, trying not to burst into tears again as she kissed her forehead.
"Take care of yourself my love. If you ever miss us, you know the jet is always there for you."
Isabella chuckled and nodded her head. She kissed Aquila and Diana's cheeks, the twins smiling at their sister.
They knew what was happening, they knew that they woudln't be able to see their Ate for a long time cause they knew they had to do this for Michelle's work. Were they sad about it? Yes. But they are smart kids. They knew they were going to see their older sister in a month tops because theu were just that clingy to one another.
So instead of voicing out thier sadness, they gave Isabella a huge smile and kissed her on the cheeks as well.
"We'll see you soon Ate."
"Yeah, and when we come back, you're buying us ice cream."
Chuckling at Diana's demand, Isabella tilted her head and nodded, giving her sisters one last smile.
"I will be buying you all the ice cream in the world."
They made a sound of disapporval and shook their heads.
"No thank you. One is fine."
"Yeah, I don't want to get sick. Too much sugar is bad for you, you know."
Giving their Ate one last look (their way of telling her not to eat too kuch sweets) they hopped down from their moms and started walking towards Paige, saying goodbye to her, leaving the three alone.
Michelle looked at her daughter and her wide with a soft smile as she watched them hug each other tightly.
"I'm gonna miss you Mama."
"I'm gonna miss you too Bella. Now only your sisters are there to annoy your mother."
Isabella looked back at the twins, who were basically using Paige as a swing set, and looked back at her Mom, who was looking at her with a soft smile on her face.
"Well, gonna look forward to those stories."
"Ans Paige is technically moving in with you, so we're gonna be excited to hear about that."
Their eldest daughter smiled, pulling Chris into another hug, smiling when Christen kissed her forehead. Michelle moved forward, pulling her little girl into her and hugged her tighter.
"I love you so fucking much Izzy."
"I love you too, both of you."
They pulled away and noticed Paige walking towards them with the twins giggling as they continued hanging on her. The married couple giggled at the sight and helped their kids down before pulling Paige in for a hug.
"Take care of Isabella for us?"
Paige smiled at Mitch and nodded, giving her a reassuring smile.
"You know I will Mitch."
The twins kissed her cheeks before they went running towards the jet, settling themselves inside. The girlfriends waved at Christen and Mitch as they followed the twins, preparing themselves for the 5 hour flight they have to London.
Once the jet took off, Paige and Isabella looked at each other, grinning.
"Want to start moving your stuff now, honey?"
Paige nodded, pulling jer girlfriend closer to her, kissing her forehead as they started walking back to the car.
"Could we go to the beach after we finish moving in my things?"
Isabella smiled uo at her girlfriendand nodded, going on her tiptoes to peck her lips.
"Of course my love."

The first thing that the Presses did when they arrived at London was move into their air bnb where a bunch of other cast members were also staying. London was a place they were insanely familiar with, but the twins were pointing at everything and anything when they were on their way to the place they were staying.
After everything was set in the place they were staying, they took 2 days to rest before they needed to go on set.
Michelle, Christen, Aquila and Diana walked into set with big smiles on their faces, smiling at Santana, Scarlett, Brittany, Florence, and Saoirse since today was their filming day.
Leaning over and hugging Scarlett, Michelle gave her a kiss on the cheek vefore moving to Santana, then Brittany.
"Is everyone ready?"
They all nodded and Michelle took her place to the director's chair.
"Okay scene 45, take one, Action."
In the middle of filming, Michelle looked around to try and look for Florence and Saoirse.
"Has anyone seen Flor and Ro?"
"Try the buffet."
Michelle stood up from her chair and turned the corner, only to see the both of them stuffing their faces with the food from catering, making the older girl chuckle.
"Yeah okay, I think this is a sign that we.... need to go on a lunch break."

Mitchell, Cam, Alex and Luke decided to come and help Paige move her stuff from her old apartment and into the Press Manor so that is where they were at right now. With Rae having moved out the day before, Isabella now has enough room in her room for her girlfriend's computer set for her streams.
Alex grinned as she watched her cousin run away from her girlfriend in the now empty apartment, squealing when she finally got caught.
//
"Isabella and Paige hasn't said they loved each other yet... and they're so in love it's disgusting."
Alex stared at the wall before sighing.
"I want what they have."
//
Luke came back up after they put the last box in the UHAUL and all 6 of them sat on the floor, eating their McDonald's takeout.
//
Mitch and Cam smiled at the camera, grinning at the thought of their niece and her girlfriend.
"Paige is an amazing girl, and she fit right in with the family."
"She gets along with everyone."
They looked at each other and smiled wider.
"We're already planning the wedding."
//
Isabella leaned closer to her girlfriend and bent down to take a bite out of Paige's burger. She had mayo on her cheeks making the violet haired woman chuckle and wipe it for her.
"Thank you, honey."
"Of course."
The 4 of them stared at the both of them with a smile on their face. Luke leaned into Alex and sighed.
"Why does she always get the hot ones?"
Alex hit her brother at the back of the head before going back to texting her boyfriend, Arvin.
Why can't he ever be this romantic?

Isabella and Paige ended up finishing unpacking everything and it only took them 3 days to get everything set up, including her streaming setup. They stepped back and looked at their joint closet, half being Isabella's and the other half being Paige's.
"This make me want to buy more pastel clothes."
Izzy looked at Paige and giggled, kissing her cheeks.
"You could just borrow mine honey."
Paige chuckled and nodded her head, leaning down to give her girlfeiend a kiss before pulling her to the other side of their closet.
"Come on, let's go to the beach."
.
Isabella's wavy hair flew with the wind, her white polo waving with her long, dar hair. Paige stared at her girlfriend with a big smile on her face. Izzy turned around and made eye contact with Paige and that's when Paige confirmed it.
She already knew, the moment she saw Isabella during the Pride concert. The moment she saw Isabella smiling at the crowd. The moment they both made eye contact. The moment Isabella even talked to her at GTA even.
But this moment.
This euphoric moment.
With the sun up, the way the light hits her hazel eyes, the way her plump lips curved up to a gentle smile, her freckles evident on her cheecks. She fell.
She fell, deeper and deeper in love with her.
Paige walked over, her arms going straight to her waist, pulling her closer. Isabella turned around to wrap her arms around Paige's neck as they swayed with the sound of the waves.
"Isabella Blaire Press."
Izzy looked up curiously, a soft grin on her face and a playful glint on her eyes.
"I am in love with you."
Isabella's soft grin turned into a full blown smile, pulled her by the neck to connect their foreheads, the eye contact not breaking.
"I am in love with you too."
