Chapter Thirty-Three

Marjorie's POV

I lay back into Reece holding on the Kate, she is sleeping soundly on my chest Reece has arms wrapped around both of us.

"Hey babe do you have anything planned for tomorrow?" he asked me

"No why" I asked

"Well, I thought we could have a date day, you know get dressed up, have a day together, I will wear the suit you love me wearing" he replied

I smiled "Well I can't refuse that can I" I replied

The twins both woke at the same time, I get up and Stevie follows me I hand her the warmed-up bottle of milk "you can feed your brother, I will feed little miss fussy here"

Stevie looked at me, as I lifted my top and got Kate to latch on

"Little miss fussy?" she questions

It's been a battle for her to accept her feeds from a bottle, she will only accept a bottle when Eric is feeding her, she fusses when it's me or Reece, I will only breast feed her at night, she has to get used to the bottle as they are starting nursery soon" I replied

"Have you tried the bottles with the teats that are shaped like nipples?" She asked

"No, I just use the regular ones"

"When I did a placement with the midwives, and they recommend them"

"I will get some tomorrow"

Reece walked into the kitchen; "I need to speak to you Stevie""

"Okay, what is it?" she asked

"After what to told me and Marjorie about Will and how he had been with you since getting engaged I was worried, so I travelled to Liverpool with Mia, and we spoke with him. I heard how he spoke to you on the phone when he left you a voice message, then when I first spoke to him, he said you were at home on a study day, when I knew you were down here with Marjorie"

Stevie just looked at Reece then at me

"Carry on, I know you have more to tell me"

"We went round to your flat, he was leaving to go out with another girl, when we spoke to them, he had told her that you had dumped him, and had moved down here, then he got violent, and he punched me, Stevie has he hit you or been violent in any way towards you?" he asked

Stevie looked down at Kate and started crying "He hit me a couple of weeks ago, when I said I was too tired to have sex with him, he got annoyed and he hit me, then forced himself on me"

Reece walked out of the kitchen and into the back garden and round to the garage, I put Jack to bed and kissed Stevie on the side of the head

"It will be okay my love; can you keep an eye on the twins?" I asked her

She nodded and I walked through to the garage where I found Reece going ten rounds with his punch bag, with no boxing gloves on, his knuckles were already bleeding.

"Reece.... Reece.... REECEY"

He stopped hitting the punch bag turned and started crying, with anger

"Why do they do it? Why do some men feel the need to treat women so badly, my bastard father, your step father and now Will, why?" he asked

"I don't know my love, I don't understand why some men are like that, the men in my life are good, you, Winter and now Eric, my real dad was an amazing man too. Jack will grow up to be a good man because you are his dad, now not only do you have a black eye and a split lip, but your knuckles are all cut... the wedding photos are going to be ruined enough on Saturday"

He looked up "You know?"

"I got a voice message from the Dj confirming his booking then an email from the celebrant confirming her booking so I put 2 and 2 together, plus after a glass of wine Charlotte told me everything" I smiled

"It was supposed to be a surprise, your wedding in our forever home" he replied

"Why don't we just have a weekend of celebrating the twins, our friends and Stevie, I really don't need the big wedding, that's the kind of thing my mother loves, not me I walked away from that life remember, so let's invite everyone round they can stay for the weekend and we can have a massive BBQ"

"Are you sure gorgeous?"

"100% my love I just want my family and my close friends around me"

"Your wish is my command, we will have a BBQ Saturday, then a chilled Sunday with everyone around us" He replied

We walked back inside the kitchen Stevie was sitting with the twins; she looked up at me and she handed me her phone "Listen to the voice message he left me"

I listened to it, "Oh my baby, that is awful, I can understand why Reece got annoyed"

"Can I stay here for a while?"

"You can stay for as long as you need to" I replied

"I just need to do a few things today; I'm just going to get showered and dressed"

"Okay my love, you do what you need to do, you can use my car if you need to, I'm going to spend the day with the twins, Reece is sorting out the weekend as the surprise wedding isn't happening"

"You knew?"

"Yes, I got a couple of emails regarding a DJ and a celebrant and Charlotte is more of a lightweight than me when it comes to wine and she told me everything after she had a couple of glasses the other week, I'm not interested in a massive wedding, so we are going to have a BBQ on Saturday and a quiet Sunday with everyone. I'm happy with that"

"Oh, mum you are amazing"

I looked at her "Can I call you mum?" she asked

"If you want to, Reece has called you his daughter, the poor guy now has 3 daughters, and they are all wrapped around your fingers, and he knows it"

"I know what?" he asked

"That Stevie, Carly and Kate have you wrapped around their fingers" I replied

"Oh god yes you all do, I will protect you all as well, my three daughters"

Right on que Carly walked into the kitchen and wrapped her arms around Reece

"Hey daddy...... can we have waffles for breakfast?"

He turned around kissed her on the head and replied

"Of course, beautiful"

He started to make breakfast for us all
