We finally arrive at the airport after a long, long trip. Oh my God, that man wouldn't stop talking, he is so bloody funny! I literally wet my pants when he started talking about his ex - girlfriend. I won't even go there. It cracks me up every time. Oh, don't get me started about the time his friend signed him up for pole dancing classes for Christmas. He is making hard for me not to fall for him and on the ground laughing.
Once all the kids are on there way to their houses,Toby, Mary and me start walking up to our house. I'm dreading it. I'll be with Toby nearly 24/7 and I'm trying to not to like him. This is a challenge. We walk up the hill all our bags in our hands, well, Toby is carrying mine, he insisted, just another way to flirt with me.
We start to walk down to the playground where all the kids have gathered so we can go on a walk. Mary is unpacking, just Toby and me. Oh, jeez. I see Flora pushing Ellie May on the zip wire and Sara taking pictures. I see Nelly (not the teacher) in the basket swing and Grace and Kathryn pushing her. Conor is in the spinning seat thing, Brendan and Eden and Shane are spinning him. Ah, sweet childhood. I start running down the hill, into the playground.
"Ellie May, here let me on the zip wire. "I say walking towards the zip wire. Ellie looks at Flora, starts laughing and hops off the the thing. The children, they crowd around me.
"Brendan, push me!" I say, hopping on the seat thing of the zip wire. Brendan runs over, places his hands on the back of my green jumper and pushes me, running so I go really fast. I scream my head off, holding onto the thin for dear life. I see Toby from the corner of my eye, laughing, I think, well, who wouldn't I probably look like a eejit, on ice! (On ice is always sillier). I fly up on the air at the end and scream even louder. All the children laugh as I hop off the seat.
"Miss.Jen, look at the photos we took!" Says Keeva and Bella, showing me their photos. I look like an eejit. On ice.
"No! Delete that!" I shout, but they just laugh. I turn to face Toby.
"Your turn!" I say, grinning widely and push him towards the zipwire.
"No, Jesus no!" He says, trying to turn around.
"Why not?" I say, still grinning.
"I'm allergic. "He mutters. I laugh.
"Brendan, its Mr . Toby's turn." I shout to Brendan. Toby trys to escape again.
"Uh, Uh, oh no you don't! "I shout at him. He finally give up and walks over to the zipwire and sits on the seat. Brendan pushes him while running beside him. Toby screams, even louder than me, and everyone laughs their heads off. After Toby goes on the zipwire another two times, we announce that we're going on a walk to all the houses.
We start making our way to all the houses, pausing to take pictures of the kids infront of the house they're in. Then we go back to the park and play for another while. Then the children go back to their houses.
Toby and me go back to our house for dinner and desert then we make our way out to check on the children in their houses. We go to Bridget Griffith's house first then Anne and Tomy's after that we walked down the hill to Sarah and Martin's, up the road was Bridget and Terry's then the last house we checked up in was Mary and Edward's house, then as ashausted as ever Toby and me went diwn the road, past the shop up past the playground and the school and at the bottom of the hill up to our house Toby stopped.
"What?"I asked him stopping too. He blushed and then walked forward, grabbed my wrists and kissed me.
