the ultimatum

Party pt2

Tim's body filled up with rage.
Was that fucking bitch being serious?!
Tim stood up angrily and punched the hard cold tiles on the wall, Angela must of been on her way to the bathroom because she was outside..she heard the banging and crashing and Tim's frustration.

"Tim! Let me in" Angela snaps and Tim stands still and takes a few deep breathes before going to the bathroom door and opening it.
"Hey. What's up?" Angela asks concerned at Tim's behaviour.
Tim covers his hands with his face and groans, he wanted to cry and break down. First of all him and Lucy slept together the night before, then now that fucking letter from Ashley. She's going to fight for custody. She was pregnant?!

"I'm fine" Tim says after a few deep breaths, he was trying to stop a panic attack coming on.
"Tim, remember. No. Lying." Angela crosses her arms and Tim shakes his head.
"Not now ang..please. It's my kids birthday party, I can't- I need to get back out there" Tim sighs pushing past Angela and going into back into the living room where everyone was having fun, Tim glanced at his babies happy faces and immediately he felt abit happier.

The then looked at Lucy who was talking to a parent, she looked so happy..and beautiful.
Tim sighs, and smiles at his twins "hey everyone it's time for presents" he says trying to build a wall up, he was putting a fake act on. In reality he needed to break down.

Everyone cheered and the twins immediately ran inside to all the presents, everyone stood and sat around them while they were opening them. They got iPads, toys, Barbie's, stuffed toys, games, clothes, fake police, and fire fighter costumes, outside toys, bikes and lot more. Tim was grateful for everyone putting in and helping him and the twins and being there for them.

"Say Thankyou to everyone" Tim says softly and the twins smile happily and run up and give everyone hugs.
"okay you guys sit back down, daddy has one more present okay" Tim says softly, he received a glance from Lucy, she didn't have a clue about this last gift.

Tim leaves the room leaving everyone curious, he comes back with a little puppy in his arms.
"AHHHH!" The twins squealed happily, they ran over to Tim and immediately stroked the dog.
"Aweee" Avalynn says softly kissing the dogs head.
"let's call it Kojo" arlo claps and Tim smiles and nods.
"That's a great name kiddo" Tim says softly ruffling arlos head.

Tim places the dog outside and the twins and the other toddlers carried on playing with the bounce house, they played with the dog in the garden and ate food.

Overall the party was a success.
It was finally to blow out candles, the twins sat infront of the balloon display and both Tim and Lucy carried on cake each, Lucy wanted to carry one even though she had a broken wrist.

Everyone sang happy birthday while Tim and Lucy approached them with their cakes, they places them infront of them and they blew out their candles and made wishes.
'I wish miss lucy becomes daddy's special friend and our new mommy' they both secretly wished for, they blew out the candles and everyone clapped.

Everyone ate some cake, and eventually the party came to and end. Everyone was exhausted.

everyone left, it was just Angela, Aaron Tim and Lucy. Wesley took Jack home.
The twins were exhausted, all their energy was gone, Tim took them to bed and tucked them in, their dog slept at the end of arlos bed.

Tim goes back into the living room where everyone was cleaning up. "Why don't you and Angela clean up out side and me and Aaron clean up in here it'll make the job so much quicker" Lucy suggests and everyone agrees.

Angela follows Tim outside and closes the door on her way out, she wanted to have a private conversation with him after seeing his behaviour earlier.
Angela started picking up streamers and rubbish from the ground.
"What's going on Tim." She asks and Tim doesn't answer he just carries on tidying the garden.

"Timothy. I know your trying to act like your okay. I know you're not. , come on Tim it's me, just tell me" Angela sighs softly freezing in her place.
"Ashley sent me a letter" Tim mumbles and Angela raises her eyebrows.
"What did it say?" She asks and Tim freezes
"She wants custody of the twins when she gets out..and she had an abortion, my baby" Tim says and Angela softens and looks at Tim sympathetically.
"I'm sorry Tim" she says and Tim just shrugs.

"I don't even know how to feel or say Angela..am I meant to be sad, mad or relieved? I'm mad that she didn't tell me and she made the decision her self. I'm sad that I could have had the opportunity to have another child but im relieved that she misses the chance to become a mother again, because she is a fucking shit mom" Tim explains and Angela goes up to Tim and gathers him into a much needed hug.

"Just focus on the twins tim, don't let this mess you up. You're a great fucking dad okay?promsie" Angela says softly and Tim nods and pulls away and picks up more rubbish.
"What else is going on Tim?" Angela asks and Tim knows there's no way to lie..he knows Angela knows there's something going on with him and Lucy.
"Me and Lucy slept together...last night" Tim admits and angela didn't say anything.

"Are you going to say something?" He asks after a few minutes, angela smiles
"Nope" she says happily, practically jumping on her feet.
"What.?" Tim mumbles
"I knew it was going to happen" angela shrugs and didn't answer.
"So why all the awkwardness?" She asks.
"Lucy thinks it was a mistake" Tim grumbles and angela freezes again.
"And you don't?" She asks curiously.

"I mean yeah and no. I..I still love Lucy, I'm still in love with that girl" Tim admits to him self and angela.
"I don't think it's me you need to tell Tim" angela says softly tapping his shoulder.
"I can't- she doesn't love me, she said that everything changed after Ashley.." Tim shakes his head and angela frowns.

"I understand that, everyone hated you because of that. But look Tim, you've changed- your a great fucking dad and you have proved to everyone you have changed. Look, you even jumped infront of a bullet for Lucy. You can't tell me that true love" angela says.
"I'll speak to her later" Tim says and angela smiles.
"You better, and you guys better actually make it to your wedding day. And I deserve the best woman role" she replies Tim shakes his head and laughs.
"Thanks angela, I needed someone to talk to" Tim admits and angela nods in understanding.

"Anytime bff" she smiles, Tim rolls his eyes and chuckles.
They clean up more, then Tim randomly asked angela a question.
"If I ask you something will you be honest?" He asks and angela frowns at him.
"Of course." She nods and Tim sighs.
"Was it Ryan who broke Lucy's wrist"

Angela closes her eyes and frowns "I swore not to say a word" angela says and Tim glares at her "so it was.?" He asks
Angela didn't answer, so he took it as a yes, immediately Tim storms to the garden gate and angela follows him, he was already angry because of Ashley..
"Where are you off too?!" She snaps.
"To kill someone" Tim grumbles, he can't let someone hurt the person he loves most.
