Fans or Family: Tulisa and Me

Chapter 44

Tulisa's POV

Vharrey ran over to me and lay on the blanket breathing heavily. Her top got pulled up because it was wet and revealed her torso a bit. I fixed it and she thanked me. "What's the matter?" I asked as I stroked her face gently. "I can't go back into the pool, Ryan said you see my tats through my shirt because of what they are. He can't know about the rest of them, he'll go ape shit!" She said and I sighed. Gareth sit her up and she leaned against his bare chest. "Come on babe, why dont you just see what he says if he sees them?" Gareth said, soothingly playing with her hair. "Because dad, he won't understand, he will question them, then wonder why I didn't tell him about them!" She sighed and he hugged her close. Ryan came over and sat down so she could see him. "V, He is going to find out you know, why not tell him?" He held her hand and rubbed patterns on it soothing her. "He will go ape, you know he will, he liked the unicorn because it has his name, what is he going to do when he sees a different tat that ain't for him!" She cried a little and he held her close to him. "Listen, you got it for a reason, if he doesn't like it, then he shouldn't be the one you go out with. If you need any help, I'm here for you!" Ryan kissed her softly on her fore head then set her back with Gareth.

He shouted cannonball then jumped into the pool. A distraction, nice one. Vharrey was thinking, I know she was. "Listen, we are going to go over these tats to find your meaning of them. You will cheer up knowing it's what you want!" I said and she nodded. "Ok!" "The unicorn is for Scotland, our national animal, I have Andrews name because he means a lot to me. Then I have 1980, the year B was born. I have the same tat as you on my lower back. Then we have that, and then that other one!" She said, I nodded and hugged her close to me. "Good thing they are temporary huh Mum?" She asked and I laughed. "Yea, I love you mum!" She says and I kissed her head. She kissed Gareth's cheek and hugged him close. I stood up and went over to the pool. I was getting way too hot.

I went in the pool with the kids and I felt someone jump on my back. It wad Kate. "Thank you, for helping her!" She whispered in my ear and I nodded. I went under the water bringing her with me. I pulled us back up and she was clinging to me. "So not funny T!" She said and I laughed. I felt someone push me and I slipped, going under the water again. "Hey babe!" Gareth was smiling with Vharrey on his back. Clever. "Dad I said nudge her, not throw her into the water!" Vharrey said laughing. I looked at Gareth and he nodded and got up out the pool with Vharrey, and she clicked on. "No dad don't you dare....Ryan!" She screamed as Gareth jumped into the pool with her and she climbed onto Ryan's back. "Haha, he nearly got you babe!" Ryan said and she hugged him tightly. "Ok ok, what did I miss?" Andrew swam over with Kate and Rick. "Nothing!" Vharrey said. Andrew gave her a weird look. "Why you on Ryan's back hugging him?" He was confused, you could tell.

"Gareth tried to jump into the water with me so I jumped onto Ryan's back. I'm hugging him so I won't fall off!" She smiled and Ryan's face stiffened into a smile. "Bro she don't want to go on the water no more!" Ryan said, protecting her. He is a good mate. "Why don't you wanna go fully in the water babe?" Andrew asked getting closer. Shit, only Ryan knew about the other tats."I just don't, so Im just gonna go on dads back now!" Gareth went over and she went on his back and he laughed. Andrew raised an eye brow. "What's the real reason?" He asked clearly not buying it. "Nothing, I just don't want to go in the pool fully. Leave it alone!" She kinda growled at him and I think she realised. "Fine, dobt tell me, growl at me, I don't really care babe, tell me whenever!" He swam over to Rick and Kate and Rick slapped his head. Ryan came over to Gareth and took Vharrey off of him. "Thank you!" She said quietly to him, she was hugging him again. "It's ok babe, he should figure it out, and if he doesn't well, he can go back to being a play boy!" Ryan tried to make her laugh, it worked.

"Ok guys come on, we better go get ready. You guys need to pack, you have to go home tomorrow!" I said and they groaned. I saw Vharrey tighten her grip onto Ryan. He pulled her up as she was slipping down but kept the tight grip. I looked at him and he didn't know either. He moved to the edge and helped her out. I got out the pool then helped Kate out. The boys got out and me and Kate ran towards Vharrey. She had wrapped a towel round her. Smart. She ran into my room and I went after her. She didn't know that she had her own room yet. Gareth had been decorating it whenever he could slip away. She flopped onto the bed, sighed, then got up. She slipped her vest top off and revealed her tats. "Wow, they look so real. But where a full length top ok, as for shorts, where whatever!" I kissed her head as she grabbed Gg's shirt and other stuff then ran into the bathroom. She came out about 2 minutes later in Gg's shirt, her hair going wavy in the heat. "It looks like you only have Gg's shirt on by the way!" I said and she laughed. I had gotten changed quicker than her because I wasn't as wet.

She hugged me and I hugged back. We walked into the living room and I went to talk to Gareth. I rested my arms on his shoulders and he rested his on my waist. I went to say something but went blank.He kissed me gently and I kissed back. I went to pull away but he held me there. I smiled into the kiss and he pulled away about a minute later. He held me by my waist though, so I wrapped my arms around his neck and hugged him. He hugged me close to.him and I listened to his heart beat. "Just so you know, our daughter is watching!" Gareth whispered and I opened my eyes to see Vharrey standing by the couch, het head turned to us. She smiled at me then held Ryan's hand?
