Family start...

3 = New Reality 😥🩹

CAITLIN'S POV:

It is the day after my injury, the girls still have training today. Kyra and Katie are still asleep, me and Katie have some how ended up in bed with ice packs tied to my injured parts, the last thing I remembered was Katie coming back downstairs after putting Kyra to bed. Katie starts to stir, laid on my chest, while I check the time. I remember training was not really training today and more or so match skills before the game tonight. "He-y. Wha-t-t time i-s it?" Katie stutters still sleep in her voice. I rub her back under her pyjama top, "Like 7:46." Katie just moves down and hides her head in my armpit.

About 10 mins later Katie finally sits up. "Hey babe, we should go wake Kyra up. We all know how long she takes to sort herself out." I nod back, not moving. "Would you like me to carry you, or can you walk out crutch I guess." Her humour trying to brighten the day up.

KATIE'S POV:

I go around to Caitlins side of the bed. Since she still has not responded to my question. I pull her chin, so we are eye to eye, she tries to pull away, so I cup her face in my hands. "Cait, I promise you, you will be back on the pitch scoring all of them goals as soon as possible. But right now, you need to focus on your rehab to get to this point." She nods. "Right come on then let's go get that girl up." Again, no words but a simple nod. I swing her legs over the side of the bed pop her boot on to help her crutch along. And make sure her bandage around her thigh is secure. "Come on up you get." Ensuring that she places all her weight on her good leg. She stands tall, slightly taller than me. She places all her weight on me, and we stand there just hugging and comforting one another that we will be okay. "Babe, I am going to move away to grab your crutches. Stay balanced." I slip her crutches through her arms and step away but keeping close to knowing when she might need me. "You, okay?" "I think so." As she starts to go, I keep close and ensure there is not anything for her to trip on, the spare room is not far.

I knock on the door and walk in, Caitlin hot on my wheels. "KYRAAAAAAA. Wake up." She rolls around and groaning. I make sure Caitlin sits down not knowing how steady she is. "Right Kyra be down in at least 20 mins we need to leave by 9 and its 8 so, LETSSSS GOOO." I finally get a single giggle from Caitlin, which shows me some hope. Me and Caitlin leave Kyra to wake up on her own and start to leave. As soon as we reach the top of the stairs Caitlin turns to me, "Please?". "Of course." I carry her down and place her on the seats at the kitchen. I turn to grab her crutches from upstairs before she pulls me back giving me a kiss and a big hug.

I make breakfast, play some music and watch Caitlin. I made us all pancakes since it would help our morning. Me and Cait sit opposite and eat our breakfast our feet interlocked. Kyra finally rises after half an hour. "Hey muffin." Caitlin says my pancakes obviously putting her in a good mood. "Grab any food you want there are pancakes in the oven, still warm if you want." Her smile goes big and runs over excitedly, "Thanks katieeeeeee." She sings along.

*skip to nine*

"Right come on everyone out!" I scream. Kyra comes running out with too many bags and everything still not ready. Caitlin however is till not at the door. Now I think about it I have not seen Caitlin in a while because I went to sort out washing while she was upstairs. "Caitsss." I wait a second still no response. I go back inside leaving Kyra in the car and going straight upstairs. I knock on the door, "Hey Cait." I open the door and see her on the bed sat with her pj shorts at her ankles and her top still unchanged. I go around to her. "Hey, what's the matter?" Her head stays in her hands still sobbing. I take her hands into mine and repeat, "What's wrong?" She tries to speak but her sentences do not make sense. "Hey, Hey. Calm down, deep breathes." "I-I you left, and I am usually fine- and I just thought I could get sorted myself." "Hey its okay. I could have helped you; I do not mind." "How about we get you changed and go to the training ground." She nods, I wipe her face and clean her up before we get her dressed. I try to do it as painless as possible but that is kind of difficult with both her hamstring and ankle.
