Assisting Love (Waterloo Road)

Amelia sighed as she walked into her mum's house. She spotted Madison in the kitchen with summer. Amelia walked over to her "hey" Madison smiled as Amelia smiled slightly "mum in?" She asked "no, she went out with her creepy boyfriend" Madison said making Amelia chuckle. They both didn’t like Rachel’s new boyfriend, Adam. He was the new catering chef at the school and he gave them the creeps "is the father of my daughter here?" Amelia asked as Madison rolled her eyes "what’s he done?" Madison asked as she placed Summer into her high chair and turned to look at her older sister "who says hes done anything?" Amelia said "come on mels, I know you, you only call him the father of your child, and refuse to given give him a name when hes done something, what is it?" Madison asked "that’s not true, I call him dickhead sometimes, he swore in front of lillie-mae" Amelia said as Madison rolled her eyes "what an idiot" she said as Amelia smiled.

She picked summer up from the high chair "how’s my favourite girl, are you going to be a good girl for auntie mels?" Amelia said to summer who giggled in her arms "thanks for having her, max and I haven't even had an actual date" Madison said as the door opened and max walked in. Amelia looked at him and glared as max sighed "what have I done now?" He asked "it's more what you haven't done Maxwell, you need to watch your mouth around our daughter, she's is swearing and saying that you do it all the time" Amelia said "oh crap" max said as Amelia rolled her eyes "the same word that she said" Amelia said as max ran his hands through his hair "I'm sorry, I'll talk to lillie-mae and say it's not to be said, okay" max said as Amelia smiled "thanks" she said. "I better go I left tom with a hyper three-year-old" Amelia said as she walked out of the house. Madison looked to max and raised an eyebrow "what?" Max asked "seriously max, swear in front of a three-year-old, are you dense?" Madison asked as she tended to Summer.

Amelia walked back into the house and heard Tom talking to lillie-mae "you love my mummy?" Lillie-mae asked tom "I do, and you and mummy are going to live here" tom told her as Lillie looked at him with interested "that mean you’re my daddy?" She asked "no, you have an amazing daddy and he loves you, but it doesn’t mean I don’t love you" tom said as Lillie smiled slightly. Amelia stood in the doorway of the living room and smiled. She loved the bond that tom and lillie-mae had formed. Amelia walked into the living room and tom smiled to her "hey" he said as she smiled "are you okay t watch summer still?" She asked as he smiled. "sure, is she coming around?" He asked and Amelia nodded as she sat down. Lillie walked over to her and climbed on to her knee. Amelia ran her hands through lilies blonde hair and smiled to her "I guess it’s a chance to see what it will be like when we have our own baby" tom said "mummy have baby?" Lillie asked as Amelia shot a look at tom "maybe baby, would you like a baby?" Amelia asked "maybe, a sister to play dress up with" she said "w'll we will have to see" Amelia said as lillie-mae cuddled into her.

A week later Amelia stood in front of the mirror wearing a red dress. She and tom were going on a double date with max and Madison. Rachel was watching Lillie-Mae and Summer "is this weird?" Amelia asked tom as he finished buttoning up his shirt "what, the fact where going no a date with your ex, who happens to be your sisters boyfriend, no, not at all" tom said as he wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her cheek "you look beautiful" tom said as Amelia smiled thank, you look good too" she said as she placed her hands on his chest. Tom looked to her and smiled "come on we will be late" tom said as Amelia placed a hand on his chest feeling slightly dizzy "you okay" he asked "im fine, lightheaded that’s all" Amelia said as tom frowned but nodded feeling concerned.

Amelia and tom sat with max and Madison and she ran a hand through her hair as she sat at the table "so, what’s New?" Madison asked "well we officially moved in together" tom said as he took her hand and max smiled as he nursed his drink. He was worried "max, there is no need to worry max, you’re her father and she knows it, tom loves her but you’re her dad" Amelia said as max smiled. Amelia stood up and walked to the bathroom as Madison followed her "you okay?" Madison asked as Amelia sighed "don’t say anything okay, but tom and I are trying for a baby and we thought it wouldn’t happen for a few months, I already think im pregnant" Amelia said "super sperm Clarkson, are you scared, you know its not like before your not seventeen and tom will stick by you" "max said that" "max was married though, tom loves you and you will be great parents" Madison said as Amelia smiled. Madison hugged her as Amelia thought to herself if she could be a good mum other again.
