-Ameilia POV-

Harrison calmed Billie down straight away, how? She never calms down. It takes me 3 hours but it took him 2 minutes. I need to know the secret.

"Billie, are you ok?" I said sitting on the couch, Billie was sitting on the floor doing some of the work that the teachers have given her. It had been a day since that happened, we stayed over at Harrison as I slept and didnt wake up so I could get rid of the cold.

His doctor came and told me that it was a common cold and it would go away in a few days, he said I shouldnt leave the house for around 3 days and wear loads of layers if leaving the house.

"Ameilia, will we have christmas with Harrison?" She looked up from the papers and to me.

I didnt know how to answer her. We could have Christmas, it is in two months but it could allend before then, another thing is, do I want Harrison out of our lives? He made Billie happier and not because he has money, because he cares for her.

"I dont know, ill find out." I stood up and walked to the kitchen, Harrison was making Billie some lunch. "Billie asked if we were going to spend Christmas with you."

"Why wouldnt you?" He looked confused putting Billie's sandwich on a plate and walking to the livingroom. "Get under the blanket, you have to stay warm."

"Thank you Harrison," she smiled at him and weny back to doing her work. "Harrison, will you spend christmas with us.

"Of course."

I have to carry on the lie till christmas, hope nothing happens between then but I cant tell the future eventhough I wish I did.

Billie doesnt want to leave. She has gotton closer to Harrison since this morning and I believe that Harrison likes her. They was sat on the floor watching cartoons are Billie finished with her work for today.

"Can I have a drink?" Billie looked at Harrison, he walked into the kitchen. Billie turned and looked at me. "I know that this is a sham, I talked to him, dont tell him that I told you and keep it a secret that you know."

I was stunned even when Harrison walked in, realising why they were close was because they had a secret. Now I have a secret. Oh my god, my head hurts. "Im going to rest a bit in the room."

I walked up the stairs to the bedroom and messaged Aunt Kellie.

To Aunt Kels:
I have to tell you some thing. Ill send you an adress and come there if you are back in town.

From Aunt Kels:
😞

I pulled myself under the covers, and fell asleep.

..........

When I woke up I smelt that dinner was ready and the faint laughter of Harrison and Billie laughing. I walked down the stairs and to the kitchen area and round the corner to the dining room where, him, colton and Billie was eating and talking.

"Ameilia look. Harrison made mac and cheese. Well tried to Colton had to take over when he nearly burned down the house. Colton but some soup in the microwave." She pointed, I walked i to the kitchen.

"I was going to wake you. But I thought it would better to leave you and sleep." I smiled and pulled the soup out of the microeave.

"Are you ok?" He was confused with my question but finally got the grasp that it was about his side.

"Its fine, you should be focusing on yourself. You are ill." He saod as he carried my soup to the table.

We all sat there for a while, talking and eating, me forgetting that my head kills and that I am tired.

"Ameilia. Are you ok?" Billie came to the side of the bed. She placed her hand on my forehead then went to the door. She was handed 2 cloths and placed one on my forehead and neck carefully. I hated being ill but I couldnt let it effect me as I had to look after Billie. Now there is Harrison.

-Harrison POV-

"What happened before when she was ill?" I asked when we walked down the stairs and to the living room. We started to clean up the mess from her school work to the plates used for her lunch.

"The same, help me with school work, take me to school, take me to friends, take me to the boutique shop so she could work." I looked at Billie in disbelieve. Ameilia goes behond the what she has to do.

"Does she do anything for herself?" I wanted to know more, I actually dont know why, I thought that I would want the fake marriage to end but now I have grown close to Ameilia and more close to Billie.

"No, this is the first time she is doing something for herself. Even if it is fake, she trying to make me happy and even if it is fake it giving her time to not be overprotective." She said stitting now. I sat next to her.

"Why do you not spend a lot of time in school?" I couldnt think of anything else how to say it. "Is it because of your heart?"

"Yeah, my heart didnt grow at the normal development when I was imside my mum. When I was born I was 3 weeks premature and had to stay in the NICU, ever since then I have had 3 surgerys, countless appointments. That is why Ameilia ovetworks." I stared at her, she looked at her chest then took Ameilia phone. "Here is the scar."

I looked at the phone, Billie didnt look more than 4 years old. "Its getting better but I start to loose my breath and I start to panic then my heart starts to hurt so the school says that I can do half days and do the work at home." She showed me more images of her at the hospital. She also explained thay Ameilia took photos so she could make a scrapbook of her progress from a baby to when she turns 15 as it is a milestone as the doctor didnt think that she will live past 6 years old.

-Ameilia POV-

It was quiet, the only thing that I heard when I woke up I heard the TV. I walked around the corner to see Billie and Harrison sleeping, Billie laying on his side, his arm aroumd her neck. I pulled the blacket over them then walked into the kitchen to make warm milk.

I walked back to livingroom, they wad still alseep, I sat on the chair, putting the blanket over me and going through my phone and drinking the milk one in a while.

Could this be my life? Could I actually like this life.

Harrison has changed a lot in the couple of weeks, he grown to love Billie and she loves him deep down. I stood up and took a photo to add to her life scrapbook.

Was I falling for Harrison?

Will he be with us for Christmas.
