Part II: Sunshine Of Your Love

A:N
Are you ready?

You better be.

The streets were lit up by the glistening sun reflecting off of the shop windows on Cambridge high street, everyone fluttered past the figure who glided down the high street; her high heels clicking due to her motion. The figure definitely had a keen eye for fashion, her denim skirt moving to the rhythm of her walking, her white lace shirt hot against her skin, sunglasses slipping from her head which were placed on top of her long dark hair.

" Nellie wait!" Called a new voice as they ran for the girl in front,

" Dannie?" The figure laughed.

" Where you going?" He asked.

" Shops, go home you dimlo!" She laughed,

" What you going to the shops for?" He questioned walking along with her.

" I'm cooking tonight, you'll have to wait and see." The brunette smiled smugly,

" Alright, I'll see you in a bit." Dannie laughed.

" Dannie I'm back!" She called through the flat, no answer from the man who usually was always good at shouting back, " Dannie?". The figure walked through the flat to find him in the hallway on the phone.

" Yeah, I'll let her-" He began before noticing her, " She's just got back, I'll pass you on."

She through him a questioning look, before he gestured to the phone.

" Hello?" The brunette asked.

" Hey it's me." The voice answered,

" Theo?" She asked.

Theo: Hey, you okay to talk?

Penny: Yeah, what's up?

Theo: Penny... Somethings happened to Dad...

Penny: What?

Theo: He's at Barnet General, I thi-

Penny: What- Is he okay?

Theo: He's okay- Well managing.

Penny: What happened?

Theo: He's blacked out, they've been running a series of tests and apparently it's been expected for years. It's not serious but they want someone to stay with him for a while to make sure that he's okay.

Penny: Is this you asking if I will?

Theo: Penny... Me and Ernest have got families... I would but I can't leave Hells alone, she's pregnant.

Penny: You want me to go back? You can't be serious...

Theo: Penny I wouldn't ask you if I wasn't serious. 

Penny: I've got Gail and Margie, then I've got Dannie and Georgina...

Theo: Penny-

Penny: How long for?

Theo: What?

Penny: How long?

Theo: I'm not that sure... I reckon a few weeks, a month at most.

Penny: Okay, I'll have to let Rod know I can't make work and everything... When's he getting out of hospital?

Theo: Tomorrow or the day after.

Penny: I'll be there by early tomorrow, I'll sort the house and everything so he's ready to come back. Will I see you?

Theo: Course, I'll bring him back to the house. Are you getting the train or?
