Chapter five

Twinny time

Siobhan's POV

I drive Viv and the twins to Nando's where we have lunch, one thing me and Viv do is make sure we have time with our children, we did it with Jamie as he was growing up, and we make sure we do it with the twins. As we were having lunch, we chatted with Courtney and Luis. I could see that Courtney had something on her mind, she has the same look on her face that Viv gets when she is stressed or worried.

"Courtney what's wrong?" I ask her

"Nothing" she replies

"Yes, there is, I can tell, are you being bullied again?"

"No.... not as such?"

Both me and Viv look at her "You had better speak up now" Viv says

Courtney takes a deep breath and starts talking "There is a boy in my class he asked me out on a date, I refused because I didn't want to go out with him, I don't like him, in fact I don't I like boys that way anyway"

"Okay" I reply

"He won't leave me alone; he makes me feel uncomfortable, he keeps making comments about my appearance and what I'm wearing and about my body"

I could see Viv getting angry, I put my hand on her thigh to calm her down

"Have you told any of your teachers?" I asked

"Yes, I told my class teacher she told me to ignore him" she replied

"I have spoken to him momma, I asked him to leave Courtney alone, he won't" added Luis I love how my kids are so protective of each other.

"Okay sweetheart, I will come into school with you tomorrow, and we will speak with your teacher and see if we can bring the boy's parents in as well"

Courtney gets up off her chair and sits on my knee, she nuzzles into my neck. "Okay Momma, thank you"

"No problem baby, now one thing I do want to ask is when you said you don't you like boys, is that you don't fancy them?" I asked

"Yeah, I mean a lot of my friends have kissed boys and have had boyfriends, I'm just not interested in them that way" she replied

"Do you think you like girls?"

She nodded and started to cry she went to say something else but stopped herself.

"Hey, it's okay baby, you don't need to hide your feelings, remember what me and your mamma have told you, you can't help who you fall in love with, there is no rush to fall in love either, I was 35 when I met your mam, and fell in love, it did take me a while to find my real self after my up bringing and some horrible relationships, once I was honest with myself, I love your mam with all my heart and because of our love we have you and your brothers, we are proud of you no matter what okay"

She stayed nuzzled in my neck; I could feel her nodding.

"Now an important question, are all four of us staying together or are we splitting into two groups and who is going with who?" I asked

"I want to stay with you momma," said Courtney

"I want to stay with mamma," said Luis

"Okay that's settled, me and Courtney will go shopping and you and Luis can go and do football things" I said

"Oh, can you get Luis some new shoes and trainers" I added

"Okay babe," said Viv

"Meet you back at the car at 4pm" I said

Viv kissed me then whispered in my ear "Will my dirty girl be back later?"

"She maybe, depends on how you behave"

We headed off for our time with our kids, Courtney kept hold of my hand the whole time, we went shopping my bank account took a massive hit, but I don't mind, I love spending money on my kids, we also bought some presents for baby Michael, and Missy suggested getting a present for Jamie and Emma. We stopped off for a mocktail, Courtney loves the girly time we have, after the drinks had been brought to the table Courtney asked "Do you think Jay-Jay and Ems will let me babysit for them"

"Maybe once Michael is a bit older, but how about the first time he stays with us over night he stays in your room, you can look after him through the night that way if there is a problem, me and mamma are there"

"Okay" she replied

We headed back to my car; I could see Viv and Luis walking towards us, Viv had a few shopping bags and a couple from Victoria's Secret, she winks at me "These are for later"

"Did you get the shoes and trainers?" I asked

"Yes £200 later"

"He takes after you he has big feet" I joked

Viv gave me the look that I knew I was in for it later, I kissed her in the lips and said "Love you"
