Truth (Chim)

Chapter 21

Kim's POV

"Katie can you pass us the sugar please?"

"Sure."

After waking up late today we had decided that we wanted to bake, it was 2 days since we had filmed Jonathan Ross and Katie was starting school tomorrow. We had watched Jonathan Ross yesterday and once me and Cheryl had gone up to bed we had been on twitter looking at what everyone had been saying.

Everyone seemed to be very positive about it and it felt good now that people knew who Katie was. Looking at Katie now I could tell that she is nervous about going to school tomorrow. Even I'm nervous for her about tomorrow, I wonder if people will treat her differently because of who she is. I really hope not, this is one of the reasons I didn't try and find her earlier, I wanted her to have a normal childhood, one that isn't full of cameras and people treating her differently.

So far me and Cheryl have spent the morning trying to make her forget that she is starting school tomorrow and baking seemed to be the only thing we could come up with. Me and Katie were actually just putting the batter in the cases to go into the oven and Cheryl was sat on the counter watching us.

"You know you could help us Cheryl."

"Yeah, I know but then they won't be as amazing as they are going to be if I had helped."

Katie then looked at me. "Is she trying to sweet talk us into doing all the work while she just sits there?"

Before I could reply Cheryl spoke up. "I am here you know."

"Yeah I know, I can see you, your sat up there being lazy."

"I am not lazy." Even I raised my eyebrows at this, I think everyone knows that Cherl can be lazy. But I didn't intervene and went back to the cupcake batter.

"Yeah whatever lazy."

I heard Cheryl jump off the counter and I turned around to find Katie running out of the kitchen with Cheryl chasing behind her screaming. "I'll show you whos not lazy."

I guess i'll be putting the cupcakes in the oven on my own then. Once I had put them in I set the timer and heard my name being screamed from the living room. I followed the source of the noise to find Katie and Cheryl either side of the couch.

"Kim, help me please, she's gonna tickle me."

Just as I was about to move to pretend to help her, the phone ran. "Sorry, but i've got to get that."

"What? Kim? What about helping me?"

"What? Like when you just left me to put the cupcakes in the oven?"

Before she could answer me I went into the hallway and picked up the phone.

"Hello?"

Nobody answered but I could hear a TV on way in the background.

"Erm...hello?"

I suddenly heard the dial tone and I realised that they had just put the phone down on me and when I tried to ring back it wouldn't let me as they had blocked their number. I thought it was pretty strange but it went from my mind when I went back into the living room and saw Cheryl pinning down Katie on the living room floor. She was sat on her waist and had her arms pinned above her head so she was unable to move.

"Thank God your back Kimba. Tickle her for me."

"No Kim, please don't."

I walked over to them and I could see the look of fear on Katie's face. I knelt down next to Cheryl and started to tickle Katie on her stomach, she started laughing hysterically which caused me and Cheryl to start laughing too. She was wiggling aroud trying to get out of Cheryl's grasp however Cheryl was doing a good job and managed to hold her down.
