Still Unexpected

Chapter Ten

Daisy's P.O.V

 "Chris, don't make me eat this," I sigh, as he puts a bit of chocolate spread onto a cheese nacho.

 "C'mon, it's tasty." He coaxes it into my mouth.

I make a face and spit it out, putting it in the bin.

 "Together, they're horrible. Separate, they're nice. Remember that!" I grin.

Just as he is about to answer, Katrina walks into the flat.

 "Katrin-" She gives me a look. Then sighs and walks into Chris's room, shutting the door. We look at each other.

 "What's wrong with her?" Dan asks.

 "Something to do with PJ, probably. I don't know. I'll ask." I go to walk before Chris pulls me back. "I wouldn't. Just leave her for a bit." He smiles. I decide he's probably right.

Katrina comes out while we're in the living room. She gets a drink of what appears to be water, sipping it. She looks tense.

 "Katrina, what's wrong?" I get up from my seat, and walk towards her.

 "PJ, he..uh..has a child."

I process this news slowly, "A child?"

 "Yeah. A son. With his ex."

I pause.

 "A child?!"

 "A child." She sighs.

 "And you found out...?"

 "A few hours ago. He's been lying to me since we met. He's never mentioned any children, ever. I can't believe he's done this." She sighs sadly.

 "I can't believe either." I turn to the boys.

 "Did you three know?"

 "Know what?" Chris asks with his mouthful.

 "PJ has a son."

All three of them look at me with their eyes wide and their mouths open. Chris finishes his mouthful then does the same. What a gentleman.

 "What?" Dan says.

 "I know."

PJ has a son. He's lied to all of us. I'm going to need to speak to him.
