Emily's pov
"Emily, Emerson needs you" Alison yawns as our tiny baby screams at the top of his lungs
"Why have I to get him? You get him"
"Bitch. I got him last night"
"No you did not" I complain
"Fine I'll get him..."
"...again" Alison mutters before continuing "I obviously love him more"
"Fuck you"
"You already have" she giggles under her breath before turning to face away from me "many times"
Alison's comment of who loves Emerson more works and I decide that I will settle him, to prove that I love him just as much as she does. I climb out our bed and sit on the edge, rocking Emerson in my arms. His tiny hand wraps around my thumb as I sing to him, and his eyelashes flutter closed. Softly kissing him on the forehead, I place him back into his crib.

"How does it feel?"
"What?" Emily asks
"How does it feel to have two arms again?" I giggle, nudging her to the side
"It's great especially since I can do this again" she smirks before grabbing my waist and pulling me onto the kitchen worktops.
I giggle while my legs dangle around Emily. She leans her hands on my thighs and rests her forehead against mine. I take a deep breath, smelling her silky coconut hair. Emily squeezes my thighs before pushing herself away from me and grabbing Emerson's bottle which she just heated up. I grab onto the collar of her hoodie pulling her body back between my legs as I smash my lips into hers, our kiss is short and sweet as Emily places her hand on my shoulders, pushing her lips off mine and shakes Emerson's bottle in front of me
"Our son needs food"
"So do I... and you look very tasty" I smirk, clicking my tongue off my teeth at the last 't' in "tasty"
"As do you. However, our baby boy is more important" she smiles, kissing me
"Moms?" Grace's eyes bulge as she watches us
"Gray" Emily gasps as she helps me onto the floor
"What is it darling?"
"I was going to ask for some pop but it seems like you are busy" she awkwardly whispers, walking backwards away from us
"Wait, here you go" I smile, handing her two cans of coca-cola
"Thanks Mom" Grace sweetly smiles before running bak to her room
"You feed Emerson, I'll check on the girls" Emily smiles, handing me his bottle

"Hey sweethearts. What are you doing?"
"Playing with our dolls" Lily smiles
"Can I join in? I promise I'm good at playing with dolls"
Lily rolls her eyes at me before handing me a barbie
"So what's the story?"
Alison opens Lily and Grace's door, carrying Emerson in his travel car-seat. She sits the car seat onto the floor and kneels down next to him gently rocking him back and forth
"Can I join in?" She sweetly smiles, picking up a Ken doll
"I never liked the Ken dolls. I pretended to but I was always more interested in Barbie" she giggles
When I was 9 if a grown woman said that she was more interested in Barbie than Ken I would have thought she was a psychopath. However, Alison's comment goes straight over Lily and Grace's head; their lack of care makes me strangely proud. I am glad that things have changed and that I am able to watch as my children grow up in a world where they are accepting of everyone, where people can be whoever they want to be. A world where girls can prefer "Barbie" and boys can prefer "Ken"

'Did you all get the email
from RHS?'
Queen Bitch👸🏼
'No. What email?'
Queen A👸🏻
'They are having a RHS reunion.
Apparently the whole year
group has been invited'
"Em check your emails"
I slide my phone out of my pocket and go onto my emails to find an invitation to the 'Class of 2012 Reunion'
"Why didn't the school tell us about this?" Alison asks, grabbing onto my phone
"and where is my invitation?"
"Look, my email has your name as well"
Queen S👸🏻
'Are we actually going to
this thing?'
Queen H👸🏼
'This'll be awkward for Aria'
Queen A👸🏻
'Why will it be awkward for me?'
Queen H👸🏼
'Meet my husband Ezra...oh wait
you've already met him because
he used to be your English teacher'
Queen A👸🏻
'I'm not embarrassed by my
relationship with Ezra, and
everyone already knows that
Ezra and I are married'
Queen M👸🏻
'Alison, I heard that Paige is coming'
Queen Bitch👸🏼
'Good for her. I mean who's the
one who has three children with Em?
Definitely not her'
"Alison be nice" I moan
Queen H👸🏼
'I think we should go. Everyone
knows us as the bitches who were
tortured. I want to show them what
kind of bitches we actually are"
Queen A👸🏻
'And what kind is that?'
Queen H👸🏼
'The kind of bitches who can
survive anything. Let's rub our
happiness in all of their faces'
"Are you going to play or are you going to sit on your phone?" Lily complains
"Sorry Mom" Alison sarcastically laughs
Alison smirks at me before placing her phone down on the floor, rocking Emerson's car-seat and then picking up the doll.
We play with dolls for hours taking turns each to soothe Emerson when he cries. Once Lily and Grace have gotten bored of their dolls we go into the living room and play music through my phone; making sure it isn't so loud that Emerson will wake up but loud enough that we can jump around like maniacs. My phone shuffles all types of music from Disney classics to opera songs; that Spence made us listen to so often that we have all learned the lyrics. We each have a "microphone" as we bounce around the living room signing into household products, pretending that we are a girl band on tour.

Our energy become lower as Emily's phone shuffles from 'I kissed a girl' by Katy Perry -which Emily shouts with all her heart, screaming as if the song was written specifically for her- to 'Every breath you take' by the police. Em's smile grows while walking towards me, Emily places her hands in mine keeping a distance between us. Lily jumps between our arms and smiles at Emily
"Mom can I dance with you?"
"Of course" Em smiles, letting go of my hand and holding onto Lily's
Grace runs over to me and places her feet on top of mine and I begin to slow dance with her. My eyes bounce around the room as I watch Emerson sleeping, while looking at Grace and watching Emily and Lily dance together.
I couldn't have had a better day, I couldn't have had a better life than the one I have gotten to share with Emily. In that moment I couldn't have been any happier
