"It was nice getting to know you." Alice stated shaking Joe's hand squealing slightly when he pulled her into a hug. They both laughed as they pulled away Joe then giving Leah a hug, he had spent the weekend with his father but also got to know his step mother and sister a little bit more. He wasn't too fussed about his dad remarrying now. As long as he was happy that was all that mattered. He said his goodbyes before he followed his dad down the path the two of them climbing into the front of the car waving back to Alice and Leah as Paul drove away.
"Can you drop me off elsewhere?" Joe questioned turning to his father.
"Sure where and why?" Paul questioned.
"Just at the care home, I want to see Demi. Mom will be at work anyway then you can meet her." Joe replied Paul nodding his head gently.
"She sounds like a great girl, have you spoke to her much over the weekend?" Paul inquired Joe nodding his head this time.
"We've been texting, she doesn't really get on with the kids in the home so Nick and Willa I are her only friends." Joe explained.
"How is Nick doing? I haven't spoke to his parents in a while." He found it unbelievable how hard it was to try and keep in touch with everyone when he divorced Denise but he wanted to just for the kids. He didn't have much family on his side as it was.
Joe smiled when Demi opened the door jumping in his arms squeezing him tight Joe squeezing her back just as tight. He set her back down on the floor kissing her gently before pulling away talking hold of her hand turning back to his father who was stood there waiting for him to introduce the two of them to one another.
"Demi this is my dad, dad this is Demi." Demi let go of Joe's hand shaking Paul's as he went in first but she soon took Joe's hand again happy to see him after a long weekend. She had gone out with Nick and Willa yesterday but she had been bored today. There was nobody really her own age here to socialise with but she still got on with Nathan.
"He hasn't stopped talking about you all weekend." Paul teased Joe blushing slightly, Demi just giggled as she leaned up kissing his cheek.
"So this is how to treat your only son when you drop him off, I see how it is." Joe commented Paul laughing this time as he laid his hand on his shoulder.
"Don't play the only son card Joseph, I'll see you soon alight and we'll talk over the phone before then." Joe nodded his head gently as the two of them saying goodbye waving him off before they both entered the house, it was getting warmer now heading into spring.
"I missed you." Joe whispered down in her ear Demi smiling.
"I missed you too Joe," Demi managed to say before Joe kissed her Demi kissing him back but they didn't go much further then that with the situation they were in. "Did you have a goodtime though?" Joe nodded his head gently.
"Yeah Alice and Leah were really nice like you said. I'm going over every other weekend again starting to get into the habit of it again, I like seeing my dad." Joe admitted.
"You looking forward to seeing your mom again though?"
"Of course, I'm a momma's boy," Joe grinned Demi giggling. "Maybe soon you can come with me to visit dad." Joe suggested.
"I'll have to see what the rules are here but I don't see why it should be too much of a problem." Demi answered leading him through into the living room where they both sat down. There were a couple of other children in there but not many, it was getting late and the younger children would be heading to bed Joe soon heading home. He just wanted to spend some time with Demi before he did, he planned to get home just in time for his mother coming back from work.
