Stay Away From My Friends (sequel to bulletproof love)

chapter 21

Megan's POV

I'm round Tony and Erin's house, my dad told me to get out of the house for a while so him and my mum can spend more time together, alone. I understood completely, they hardly spend any time together alone because of my dad's touring and my mums situation now, so me and Jacob left the house for the day. I obviously went to Tony and Erin's house and Jacob just went to one of his friends house. I liked going round Tony and Erin's house, mainly because of Elizabeth. She's their 3 year old daughter, she's very bubbly and loves to play hide and seek, just like when I was younger. I remember playing hide and seek with my dad all the time when I was her age. She's very good at it too, she uses her small size as an advantage of hiding in very small spaces so it's a lot harder to find her.

"3, 2, 1, ready or not here I come!" I shouted so wherever she was in the house, she could hear me. I stood up off the couch and walked round the house. I looked high and low, looked under chairs and behind curtains, but I just couldn't find her. I walked into the kitchen to see Uncle Tony and Erin.

"Can't you find her?" Erin asked looking amused.

"No, she's so good at this!" I shook my head. Uncle Tony laughed

"She's just like you when you were younger, you were impossible to find when we played with you!" He explained. I smirked then laughed, she took after me in hide and seek.

"Well do you have any idea where she could be? I've been looking for ages" I sighed with a pout. They laughed at me.

"Have you checked under her bed?" Erin asked.

"She can fit under there?" I gaped. The gap under her bed was tidy, I wouldn't have guessed she would be small enough to fit under there, but I guess I was wrong.

"Yeah, that's her favourite place to hide at the moment!" She said.

"But the gap is so small" I laughed.

"She is small" She laughed back. I nodded my head.

"That's true" I replied. I then left them alone and headed upstairs. I walked towards her bedroom and opened the door. Her bedroom was typically pink and Barbie, it was a very girly room. A rustle caught my attention. I walked around the room and pretended I didn't know where she was.

"I wonder where Elizabeth is" I said out loud. I heard a faint giggle coming from the side of me. I walked around more and walked closer her bed. I slowly bend down and saw her feet. I laughed to myself slightly. I tickled her feet which shocked her and she laughed. Her laugh was contagious. She wriggled out from under the bed and ran out of the room while giggling uncontrollably. I shook my head with a laugh and chased after her. I caught up to her and lifted her over my shoulder which earned more giggles from her.

"Put me down Megan" She said between laughs. I laughed and just ignored her. I walked downstairs with her still over my shoulder and walked into the kitchen.

"Oh look Erin she's found her!" Uncle Tony said when he saw us. Erin turned round and laughed at the sight.

"Was she under her bed?" She asked. I nodded my head, "told ya!" She laughed. I began to run around in circles and Elizabeth was laughing so much.

"I need to pee-pee Megan!" Elizabeth said while laughing. I immediately stopped and placed her on the floor, I didn't want her to pee on me.

"I don't want pee on me" I laughed. She then ran over to Uncle Tony.

"Daddy, I need to pee-pee" She whined. Uncle Tony sighed and stood up.

"Okay, let's go sweetie!" He said. He picked her up into his arms and walked out of the room. I loved seeing Uncle Tony with Elizabeth, he's a great dad and I'm happy for him. I walked over to a chair and sat down while Erin was cooking food.
