A terrible liar

I'll be writing the other most popular suggestions next :)

It was very rare that I was left home alone, and i had never been given the responsibility of being left alone with the girls.

But this seemed to be the first of those rare occasions. One of Mam's business partners had to reschedule their meeting last minute, so despite all her huffing and puffing, my Mam didn't have a choice but to leave me.

Course she reminded me a hundred times that I could call her or dad if I needed anything and not to strain too much, just to watch television and wait for Ant to get back from training.

I'm pretty sure she even called my poor boyfriend to kindly nag him to hurry his cute ass up- my words; not the words of my mother.

We hadn't been left alone for long and it wasn't too bad watching the girls, Emma was taking a nap on the sofa, all tuckered out after running around in the garden playing pirates all morning, whilst Sarha was sat on my lap playing where's Wally with me

I hadn't thought you could be bad at where's Wally but I was awful! The Little blonde in my arms was finding him almost every time though and I tried not to get too competitive about it.

"Okay okay lucky spot, on this one though don't look before I've completely turned the page and said go." I asserted, keeping my eyes on her as I flicked to the next page. "and threetwooneGO!!"

We both looked down and immediately started analysing the page, my eyes went over Wilma and I even found the dog but even as I scanned up and down the page methodically I couldn't find Wally.

"Found him!" Sarha yipped proudly, pointing behind one of the rollercoasters and I pouted, my shoulders sagging.

"Awe Man. Urgh. I don't like this game."

The Little lass giggled, "Thats only because youse aren't very good!"

"Hey! Mean." I huffed, putting the book down whilst Sarha turned to cuddle me into her small arms. Although I was upset about losing, I enjoyed the moment far too much to stay mad. I couldn't believe I'd known these two little angels less than 4 months. It was impossible to imagine a life without them now, they were as much my little sisters as Ant was my Dad's son at this point.

Perhaps merging mine and Ant's families was becoming a little incestuous from an outsiders perspective, but I really couldn't have cared less. Since meeting Anth I was healing physically and for once, mentally too. Each day the grey cloud of my depression seemed to get smaller and smaller, further away even. I actually had something to live for now, something to look forward to.

It was all thanks to Anth, I hugged Sarha gently and closed my eyes, reminding myself to give my handsome boyfriend extra kisses when he got back from training.

"Decky? Baby you okay? I'm home! I bought you brownies!"

Speak of the devil.

I beamed, uncurling my arms from Sarha's stomach so I could turned my chair around and wheel towards the door. Sarha didn't pay me any mind and just continued to play with her book whilst i sped as quickly as my wheels would take me right to Ant's feet- almost taking off his toes as I skidded to a halt. Sarha had to hold on tight to me as not to fly forward and even Ant looked ready to catch her.

"Brownies?" I eyed up the brown bag in his hand as the taller boy tried to kick off his shoes and put down his training bag.

"It's nice to see you too kidda." He teased and I giggled, pouting my lips, waiting for him to lean down and give me a hello kiss. Sarha, being perfectly used to our constant showering of affection, didn't even bat an eyelid, just leaned to the side so Anth had access to kiss me attentively.
