A Daughter To Love.. (Amanda Mealing/Casualty Fanfiction)

NTAs Night...

(Richard's P.O.V)
I'd just woken up and Amanda's arms were wrapped around me.. I looked at the time. It was 7.00am.."Babe.. wake up. You've got your dress delivery at 9.00am. I heard her yawn. "Thank you for letting me know sweetheart. Mia had a guest last night." Richard smiled. "Was it that Seth guy she was texting at dinner the other night?" I laughed. "Yes it was. I think they are an item. Well.. sort of anyway.." I'd better keep my mouth shut as I promised her! "Well.. we will be keeping an eye on Seth." Richard laughed. "Darlings...we've got to wake up. "Milo.. Otis.. bathroom now. Mia. Clean your teeth and come downstairs.. you can have breakfast with me."

I texted Seth whilst eating my breakfast..

I really missed you last night babe❤ cannot wait for you to walk the red carpet with us. Text me as soon as you can. Xxx

I ate breakfast and me and mum went into the living room when we heard a knock at the door. "That's got to be Ellie and Zac." Mum opened the door and she hugged Ellie. "Hey Ellie. Your make up collection looks absolutely fantastic. Go into the living room and set up.' I let her through. "Morning Amanda. I've got your outfit. I'll go and get Mia's, Richard's, Otis's and Milo's right now.

I heard my phone buzz.. It was Seth!❤
Hey my stunning girl x. I missed you too. All I could think about was our chat. I got my suit last night. I'll be at your house at 6ish. I'm so proud to be walking the red carpet with you and your family. Xx. You'll look beautiful babe. Xx

Mum came in and introduced me to Ellie. "Ellie. This is Mia. My daughter." She smiled at me. "Hi. It's lovely to meet you." She studied my face. "Rimmel London light blushes will look so beautiful on your face. I'll put the new collection on your face and use some gorgeous mascara I used on a photo shoot." She got it out and started wiping my face with baby wipes. Mum came in and sat down next to me. "The boys are upstairs sorting themselves out. Did Seth text you?" I blushed. "Yes he did. He said he's getting ready at home and then he'll arrive here at 7pm so we can get ready to walk the red carpet.

7pm:

'Hey babe. You look stunning.' He kissed me on the cheek.. pulling me close. 'You don't look too bad yourself. 'Darling?' Mum came through the hallway wearing her dress with heels.. 'You look gorgeous mum. I think it's time for me to properly introduce you to Seth Parker. My boyfriend. ' She shook his hand and smiled at him. 'It's lovely to meet you Seth. I've heard lots about you.' I blushed. 'It's lovely to meet you too Mrs Mealing.' I laughed. 'He's always like that mum. Wait until he meets dad..' Speaking of dad and my lovely brothers.. 'Hey sis. Hey Seth. You're looking good.' Otis shook Seth's hand. 'It's good to see you mate.' Milo stood with dad and walked up to Seth. 'It's nice to meet you.' Seth shook his hand.. 'If your'e worried about me hurting Mia, you've got nothing to worry about.' He smiled at me. 'Right guys. The car should be outside so let's go.' Richard opened the door and 2 black cars were outside. 'I'll ride with the boys including Seth and you and Mia can ride together.'I kissed him. 'That sounds like a fab idea. See you on the red carpet darling.'

On the way to the NTA's... mum held my hand. 'You'll win this mum. I can feel it!' Seth kissed me. 'This is lovely.. being with Otis and your family and meeting your dad.' I smiled. 'So Seth... how's your mum and dad?' Mum asked him.. He looked uncertain. 'They are fine thanks..' I looked at him.. mouthing.. 'Is everything alright?' He nodded and smiled. We got to the event and we got out of the car. Seth, Milo and Otis came over and all we heard was 'Amanda.. you look stunning tonight! and 'Over here!' Mum held my hand and Seth, Otis, Dad, Milo followed me and we walked along the red carpet.. Cameras were flashing and the cast of the show followed near us. 'Guess who sweetcheeks?' Mum laughed. 'I know it's you Charles!' Mum turned and hugged him and he hugged me and said hi to Richard and the boys and Cathy, Janye and Chelsea all came over and hugged me. You all look so stunning.' We all took a cast photo and then we had a little family photo. 'Right my babies... and my lovely husband and Seth..' I laughed. 'Let's go in.' We went in and sat with the Casualty cast and I looked around and saw the casts and crews of other shows that I admired and I loved watching! Emmerdale! Coronation Street! Eastenders! We then saw Dermot O Leary come up on stage... Was I dreaming? Everyone looked so glam! I looked over at Seth.. I held his hand. He kissed me. 'Well hello everyone! I'd like to welcome you all to the 02 Arena for the NTA'S!' everyone clapped and whooped! 'I'd like to present the award for Best Drama!' Mum and dad looked at each other... me and the boys smiled. 4 different clips of 4 different shows came up.. including Casualty! We sat there and waited.... mum looking nervous.. 'And the winner is.... CASUALTY!!!!!!' The whole cast, crew, and us smiled, cried and mum looked us 3 kids and dad and Seth and she just held my hand.. 'I told you'd do it.' We all went up with the cast and crew and mum said a little speech and she also said something extra-special.. 'I'd like to thank the fans, the lovely writing team, the beautiful cast I get to work with every day and most importantly, I'd like to thank my lovely husband and my gorgeous children.' I looked out in the crowd and Seth blew me a kiss. I winked. 'Thankyou again!'
