*Rosie's POV*
I felt my heart drop to my stomach as my feet glued to the ground. I had tried to back away, but once his eyes came into contact with mine, it suddenly felt like the world froze. "Rosie?" his voice asked lowly, sending shivers down my spine as goose bumps arose on my now pale skin. My lips moved, but no words came out. My eyes scrunched at his appearance, the sight of him made me uneasy. "Wh-What are you d-doing here?" I stuttered, biting at my lip as he processed my question. "Rosie," he started, walking towards me. My feet suddenly came back, allowing me to back up as he dragged closer. "Please, Rosie," he began again, tears threatening to spill. "No," I retorted, reaching the hallway. "I'll go get Emma and my things then I'll be out," I snapped as I stumbled to turn around and head towards the room I was previously in. "Emma's with you?" he questioned, following me. "Stop, or I'll call the cops," I threatened. I know they won't do anything because I'm here, but it is still my apartment too. My name is on the lease. Which I need to remove, hopefully when I get all of my belongings out of here. "Oh-okay," he gave up, sighing and turning the other way. After approval that he was gonna stay there, I turned my back from the door, opening it to reveal Emma. She sat next to a pile of toys, her fingers fumbling through them. "Ready baby?" I asked her as I shoved as much shit as I could into the two bags. One was mine, the others holding Emma's belongings. She nodded, walking over to me and handing me a shitload of toys. I huffed at the amount she carried, giving her that face. Knowing what I meant, she tossed some back into the pile, giving me a small smile of what she had left. Giving in, I nodded while shoving them into her bag. Zipping both bags, I motioned Emma away from the toy pile as we headed out of the room. I held both bags handles in my left as Emma gripped onto my right, my purse on my shoulder. It made me slightly unbalanced, but I still managed to bravely walk past him and out the front door to head home. I was grateful when he didn't say anything. I know Charlie wanted me to call a cab, but honestly I needed some girl time. I walked a good block before stopping, placing the two bags on the concrete sidewalk as I pulled out my phone to dial Sarah. Three rings and a small talk later, me and Emma are sat on the curb awaiting for Sarah's blue car to pull up. IT has been a good fifteen minutes since I spoke to her, and she only lives a good twenty five minutes away. "Mumma, I hungry," Emma whined as we waited. It wasn't that long since she ate, but I had a feeling she would ask. Digging into my purse I pulled out a fruit snack packet, tearing it open and handing it to her. A small smile appeared on her face as she shoved the gummies in her mouth one by one. A good ten minutes later Sarah's car pulled up in front of us. "I don't have a seat for Ems," Sarah shouted as I loaded our bags into the trunk. "It's okay," I Lied, telling Emma to scoot in the back seat. "I'll just sit back here," I replied as I buckled her into the middle seat. Sarah nodded, hitting the gas once I gave her the ok that we were all good back here. "Where to?" she asked as we stopped at a red light. "My house?" I asked, watching her nod in the rear view mirror.
"I was thinking you could come in, I need some girl time," I laughed as we each pulled out a bag. "Sure," she replied, shutting the trunk and locking the car once I unbuckled Emma. "Is everything okay?" she asks once he reach the front step of Charlie's flat. "Yeah, well, kinda," I laughed as I unlocked the door. "Spill!" she gushes as we enter the house, Emma running in front of us. I laced my bag on the side of the coffee table, watching Emma as she ran upstairs. I waited till she was gone, before turning to Sarah saying, "I saw Brett." I watched as her smiled faded, a shock expression taking over. "How-what-when?" she quizzed, taking a seat on the couch. "Today," I quietly answered as I sat down next to her. "Why-how?" she asked again. "I had to gather some of mine and Emma's shit from the old house, and he was there," I replied, my voice getting lower as I ended the sentence. I watched as her mouth formed an 'O' she as she interpreted what I had said. "Does Charlie know?" She asked, her voice barely a whisper. I shook my head, darting to Emma whom was slowly coming down the stairs with her arms full of toys. "Careful baby," I warned as she took her time. She nodded, taking one step at a time. Once she was off the stairs and settled on the floor by us, we began speaking again. "You're gonna tell him, right?" She quizzed. "Are you gonna tell who what?" A masculine voice asked, making both Sarah and my head turn towards the stairs case. There stood Charlie, resting his hands in his front pockets as he patiently waited, swaying on the last step. Well shit.
