The Depth of Fate ~on hiatus ~

Chapter 4

Cher and I had been out all day, mostly just talking and getting to know each other although I knew quite a bit about Cher already. It was getting late in the afternoon  so Cher decided it was time to go back to the hotel as we already had what we wanted. Cher bought me 3 new tops, 2 pairs of jeans, a pair of tracksuit trousers 2 pairs of PJ’s, a pair of trainers, a pair of slippers, a beautiful dress, a pair of high heels and a thick coat.

“Cher, you didn’t need to buy me all of this!” I said walking back to the hotel.

“You are my daughter...well as soon as we get back to Malibu! I need to spoil my new daughter a bit!” Cher hugged me, “C’mon we need to get back and get ready as my guest will arrive at 6pm which is in 2 hours.”

“Who is coming?”

“You will find out when they get here! They have already seen you while you were asleep because they came round.”

“Give me a hint.”

“No! You will have to wait till they get here!”

“Fine!” then we walked back to the hotel.

“Cher, what should I wear?” I said wrapped in a towel as I had just had a shower. Cher was in her dressing gown doing her make-up.

“Ummm...wear that dress I bought you! Once you’re dressed call me in so I can look and then I can do your hair and make-up.”

“Ok.” And I walked into the bedroom grabbing the bag with the dress in it.

I quickly got dressed; my hair was still wet and was wrapped in a towel. I called Cher back in.

“Cher, I’m dressed.” I called.

“Ok honey, let me grab the make-up and hair stuff and I will be in.” Cher answered and about a minute later Cher walked through the bedroom with her arms filled with make-up and hair products. Cher was dressed in a beautiful black dress that fell to just above the knee.

“Wow! You look...WOW!” I gasped

“I know. Now let’s make you look drop dead gorgeous! Come on sit down.” Cher said pulling me towards the chair.

It took Cher half an hour to put my make-up on and do my.

“C’mon let’s go into the bathroom so we can look at ourselves in the full size mirror but don’t look at yourself till we get there!” Cher said covering my eyes and leading me towards the bathroom. “I’m going to remove my hands but close your eyes so I have the chance to stand next to you!”

“Ok.” I closed eyes and Cher removed her hands from my face. She then came round beside me and put her arm round my waist.

“You can open your eyes now...future daughter.”

‘Wow did Cher actually just call me her future daughter!’ I thought to myself. I quickly opened my eyes and looked in the mirror. I looked beautiful...we looked beautiful. I actually looked like I could be her daughter. “WOW!” was about all I could get out. I hugged her. “Thank you...future mom.” I finally managed to get out. She kissed my head.

“Anytime babe. Let’s take a photo so we can remember this moment.” Cher quickly took out her Iphone and took a photo. She then took my hand “Let’s go back into the living room, my guest will be arriving any minute now.”

“Will you tell me who it is now?” I moaned.

“Nope you will have to wait till she...I mean he...I mean...Oh fuck!”

“Language mother!” I said winking at her. She shoved me giggling. “So it’s a girl that’s coming?”

“Maybe...”

“Argg why won’t you tell me?!?!”

“I don’t want to.” Cher said playfully.

Suddenly there was a knock at the door
