Amber***

Amber's P.O.V:

"Which dress do you really like?" Kate says to me on the phone.

"I haven't decided yet, Kate..." I say.

I'm currently sitting cross legged on floor, flicking through about forty dress magazines that Karen gave me.

I don't...particularly care.

I mean, I care about how the dress looks on me but I don't need to spend thousands of pounds on something just because it's designer.

'Don't Tell The Bride' is on the TV which I think is really relevant. Reid is in his pyjamas beside me, playing with his car toys. To is fast asleep on the couch but I don't know how she can, with all the noise Reid's making.

"Flick to page thirty seven..." Kate says. "There's this gorgeous one with the floral embroidery..."

"I'll decide later..." I sigh. "I don't even have a venue yet."

"That's because you won't have it close to home...and you want to fly everyone out to Glasgow."

"Kate, you know how important that place is to me. It's the only place I could go where the universe wasn't out to get me. And it's way more private."

"Okay, Amber-"

"I don't know why that's so hard for Karen to understand."

"Okay, Amber..." Kate says. "You know what, it's your day. You should decide. Whatever makes you happy. Anyway, I've got a night shift at the hospital so I better be going."

"Thanks Kate..." I sigh.

"You too, Amber. Bye!"

I put my phone down and then bend down to kiss Reid on the cheek.

"Mum..." He whines. "I'm not a baby anymore."

"That doesn't mean I can't kiss you..." I say, ruffling his curly hair. "Your Dad honestly buys you way too many toys."

"You can never have too many toys, Mum..." Reid grins.

Same smart mouth like Pel.

"I have to give you your medicine in a minute, and injections tomorrow morning..." I say, freeing myself from the magazines and standing up.

"No..." Reid whines again. "Why doesn't Topaz get injections?"

I actually don't know how to answer that question.

"Because you're special, Reid." I say quickly, walking into the kitchen.

As I start to get Reid's medication out, I begin to wonder where Pel is.

He obviously didn't listen to me when I told him to ask Ash for permission to leave the studio early.

If he was there then maybe he could have fought my case for me to Karen.
