Welcome To The Family (Second HeartBeat A7X Sequel)

25 Home Sweet Home

I woke up the next morning wishing that the previous night had just been a really bad dream and that Brian hadn't really asked me to marry him, only realising that wish hadn't worked as it wasn't a bad dream. Last night after Brain had, 'popped' the question, I told him I needed time to think and with that I quickly made my exit and went back to my room, pretending I wasn't feeling too good. I mean how could he even think to ask me with all the shit that had been going on. What would Zacky have thought? No it was out of the question me marring Brian, yes he had Alexia as his daughter but that didn't mean we needed to get married. But did I not want to in fear of upsetting Zacky. My brain seriously felt like it was swelling up with the amount of things spinning around in it at that moment in time.

'Morning babe' Matt obviously knew I was awake from the amount of fidgeting I was doing in bed.

'Morning' I forced myself to cheerfully say. Hey at least we were going home today. As much as I had an awesome time at Disney, I just needed some me time.

'you feeling any better this morning?' I thought about it for a moment before realising I didn't actually feel OK.

'I think i'm gonna..' I said before dashing out of bed to the bathroom to throw the contents of my stomach to the back of the toilet bowl. 'Puke' I said to myself as I slumped down onto the floor.

'Emz you ok?' Matt asked as he gently pushed open the door.

'Yeah I will be fine'

'Look, I'm going to book you in at the doctors when we get back. I think all the recent stress is making you ill' I nodded at him as I brushed my teeth, I was grateful that I had so many people that cared about me. 'I'll go get you a drink. We have two hours before the mini bus arrives to take us to the airport.'

'Thanks Matt'

'Hey least I can do' He said as kissed my forehead and left the room. At that moment in time all I wanted to do was go home lock my bedroom door and just sleep, well obviously leaving a little door open for the two little women.

'Mommy?' I heard Rex say from the other side of the door, I opened it to look down into her little tearful tears, I quickly knelt down.

'Oh baby girl, what's the matter?'

'I don't wanna go home.' She blubbered. I quickly embraced her in a hug.

'Oh sweetie. Shhh' for some reason the sound of her sobbing started me off too. 'We will come back one day I promise Rex' I heard more footsteps, Harmony was standing nearby also full of tears. 'Come here you'

'I miss mommy'

'Shh, I know you do baby' I felt hot tears steaming down my cheeks as I picked up both of the crying girls and carried them into the living area of our hotel room. Matt came rushing over seeing me struggle with them. He slipped Harmony out of my arms into his own, placing his free arm around me and Rex.

'Shh' He hushed us, placing a kiss on each of our heads leading us over to the couches to sit down. Even though the girls had only just woke up, they fell back to sleep through their tears. 'I know what's up with the girls' Matt said softly 'But you wanna tell me what's up with you?'

'what isn't. Matt I feel so stressed I feel I could break at any moment. As much as I love everyone, I want some me time, and we are going back to that house which is already over flowing.'

'You want some where more quiet?'

'Yeah I think I need it'

'What about talking to Zacky?'

'What do you mean?'

'Well you still have everything at your old place with him. I know full well he'll let you stay for a while.'
