By the time morning had arrived I was beyond tired and refused to get
out of bed. I herd Xaiden talking to one of the girls but still refused to
get up. I knew he was very safe with them all, so sleeping in would be
fine just this once.
The next time I woke was only because someone had decided to bring
food into the room making my stomach instantly growl from hunger.
"Rise an shine sleeping beauty, so many things to do today?" A female
voice calls out at the same time the curtains are opened. The brightness
shines on my closed lids making me hiss out in annoyance. I throw the
blanket over my head and groan.
"Go away" was my only reply, for that my blanket is pulled away from
my body and before I can move, a hand latches onto my leg and yanks.
My head shoot up as I glare at my short friend who is grinning at me
"Really?" I stare at her with a brow raised in a questioning manner.
"Well I brought you food, so get up and start eating or else.â I laugh at
Georgia words, but do a she says. I grab the tray and start to eat the
mini hotdogs while sipping on my coffee. Once I'm done I stand up and
move to the cupboard to find cloths and to dress.
"So how is your morning so far?" I ask from the cupboard, grabbing my
blue jeans and black singlet top along with underwear.
"It was good, little Xaiden showed us the yard and then made us follow
him around the house.â She giggled at her own words making me smile
as I walk past her heading for the shower.
"I'm going for a shower and then we can all talk.â She nods her head
and watches as I walk into the bathroom closing the door.
I enjoyed the hot water running down my back as my head hits the tile
walls, my mind and body knew we would be having a tough day. So to
enjoy the shower now was my only piece of relaxation that I would be
getting for a while.
I slowly got dresses and made my way down stairs, I spotted my son
first who came bolting towards me.
"Mummy." Xaiden screams as he jumps into my arms laughing. I kiss his
cheek and carry him into the lounge room where I see all my friends
sitting down and waiting on us.
"I thought you stood us all up.â Arrow comments from the window sill, I
shake my head at her choice of words.
"Like you would let me do that." I scoffed, Arrow rolls her eyes.
"So care to tell us all why we are here?" Sal asked, I sigh and slowly sit
on the arm of Bree chair, placing Xaiden gently on my lap.
"If 1 had any other choice, then I most definitely would not have
dragged you all here." I look each one of them in the eyes, they all stare
back at me with confused looks except Sasha who knows what is
coming.
"Lil you know we would help you out with anything.â Bree tells me and
pats my leg gently, I smile down at her.
"And I'm thankful for that, if it wasn't for you girls helping me out who
knows where my ass would be by now." They all laugh easing a little of
the tention in the room
"The rogue king, has been knocking on my door. He wants what is his
back.â I try not to cringe at the way my voice spoke those sentences.
Georgia hisses out in frustration, San groans loudly, Bree and Arrow
swear a few words under there breaths Molly has fear in her eyes, Kelly
has her mouth wide open in shock. Lee stares into the fire pit with no
expression on her face. Sasha smiles in a calming way to hopefully ease
me a little. Willow stands up and starts to pace the floor with her head
in her hands. For a good twenty minutes or so, no one said a word as
they where all deep in their own thoughts.
