JACK . DESTINYS APARTMENT . MIDDAY . CODING IS TRICKY ON ITOUCH !

So it was about two weeks after the Golden Globes. While the actual event and presentation was amazing, the after party club hopping was a little mental. Thank god her best friend Gabe Aldridge had been there to take care of her. She had been quite stressed that week, as it hit her that she mightn't get anywhere in this career with her child and no one to support her. Well there was Gabe, but they were just friends. They didn't live together, and Hope wasn't his responsibility. So until she had a blues clue of what she could do and actually get a role, she just had to live life as it was now. And today she decided was going to be one of those lazy days: just her and Hope. But before she could spend quality time with her daughter, she needed a relaxing shower. Hope had been left on the floor with her toys and she would be content enough there until Des was finished in the shower.

Destiny finished her shower and went to her room. She stuck on some underwear and towel dried her hair. She also stuck on some thick socks she took from Gabe. Why was it that guys always had thicker socks than girls? Anyway. It clicked in Destiny's head that she'd promised Hope her juice after she'd finished her shower. And just when she thought of it, she heard her daughter wail: "Mummyyy! Can I have my jwuice now?" Destiny laughed. "In a second, darling!" She replied and just walked out of her room wearing a bra, knickers and socks. She didn't even turn to see who else she walked by. She didn't know her ex-boyfriend and A-lister Jack Bailey would be there. She only expected her daughter. Not him. She got the juice carton from the fridge and finally towards her daughter. Her eyes widened as she saw Jack playing with Hope. "Jack, what are you doing here?!" she beamed at him smiling. She forgot she was half naked. But it didn't matter: he'd seen it all before anyway.

They had an interesting history as a couple. When they met, when Jack fell on top of her and they ended up against a wall speechless, it was magic. They ended up seeing each other and dating. It was great, really great. Destiny was just out of her party habits. They'd stayed faithful to each other throughout. Nothing bad or dramatic happened that made them split. They cared for each other, that was more than obvious. Des was younger than him and less successful. She needed time by herself to focus on her career, and a relationship would only complicate that. But they stayed friends. There was no way they couldn't be friends still. They hadn't hung out in forever though, and here he was. She half walked, half skipped towards him and wrapped her arms around him in a hug. "Hows it been?"

It was good to be home, that was a given. Getting back to filming, it seemed as though the first thing he wanted to do was visit one person that wouldn’t give him hell about being married. She was one person that could actually make him forget about it, though. She was his ex-girlfriend, his close friend and one girl he could count on to not piss him off. She was Destiny Purcell. Being the well-known TV Star that he was, Jack Bailey was relieved and shocked that he reached Destiny’s place unseen, finding himself in front of her door sooner than he expected.

He didn’t need to knock. He was used to walking in when they were together and even after they ended it. Besides, they knew each other way before he was a nobody. ”Destiny!” He called to her, but the pair of eyes that looked up at him in response weren’t hers. ”And who is this gorgeous little creature?” Jack grinned at the doll of a little girl on the carpet as he approached her, sitting down near her before he pulled her onto his lap. ”Where’s mommy?” He didn’t wait for an answer and figured the running water in Destiny’s room was her showering.

Jack continued to play with the little girl and make her laugh. He even sang to her, amused by the look on her face when she listened. It wasn’t long before the child’s mother came into view and disappeared as quickly as she came. She spoke to the little girl, but didn’t even take the time to look over at her. Only thing he noticed when Destiny passed by was how wet and…undressed she was. She was in the comfort of her own home, why wouldn’t she? Same old Purcell. ”Why didn’t you ask Jackie for jwuice?!” He whispered to her with a smile, tickling her as she giggled, pushing his hands away. Letting out a soft and silent chuckle, Jack slid Hope off his lap gently and stood up when Destiny returned.

It wasn’t long before she was in his arms. ”Destiny Purcell.” he said her name as if she was a long-lost friend that he was re-united with. He really hadn’t seen her in a while, though, it was about time they met again. Returning the hug, Jack made sure not to loosen her towel when he held her close. ”Oh, just in the neighborhood, thought I should say hi.” There was actually a better reason, he really wanted to see her. Just kinda left it that. ”Miss me?” Jack asked in a smug tone, pulling away from the hug. It never was the same after Jack became an A-lister.

He never had to change around her, able to be himself and all. Now, however, he had the need to make sure there was no difference in their relationship now that he was known throughout the states. She probably didn’t notice the change in Jack and he wanted to keep it that way. ”Someone is growing up.” Jack observed as he leaned over and picked up the little girl onto his arm, getting back on his feet before he scanned Destiny for the second time, ”You look good.” He meant it, but it probably was the wrong time to say it to her.
