Sorry i am hopping forward a bit but I'm stuck on Takeaway chapters.

Charlie looked at the banners and balloons and all the confetti that still littered the floor, it had been Stephen's birthday last night and they still hadn't had time to clean up as they went to bed late. Charlie was sat in her room that she still had at Stephen's when she was still in school, she used to come here if she was angry with her dad or if a boyfriend had broken up with her. She stood in the doorway and knew she had to tidy up. Stephen then put his hand on her shoulder.

Charlie*jumps*

Stephen" Sorry did I make you jump"

Charlie" A bit"

Stephen" Sorry"

Charlie" It's okay, we really need to clean up don't we"

Stephen" Yeah, I'll get the hoover out later"

Charlie*sighs*

Stephen" You okay?"

Charlie*starts crying*

Stephen" Oh no, come on, come here" *cuddles her*

Stephen pulls Charlie in for a hug as she starts sobbing.

Stephen" Oh Charlie, what's the matter?"

Charlie" I just miss home, I miss dad, Ali, Isla"

Stephen" Oh Charlie"

Charlie" I know I'm silly because I've stayed with you before"

Stephen" Yeah but never for this amount of time, you listen to me you are not being silly"

Charlie" I know I can talk to dad and Ali on FaceTime but i just miss dad's hugs"

Stephen*holds her close* I know hopefully this will be all over soon, come on lets go get some breakfast"

Charlie*nods*

They head to the kitchen and Stephen puts the kettle on. He then hands Charlie a iPad.

Stephen" Here FaceTime Dec go on"

Charlie" Thanks Stephen" *takes the ipad*

As the FaceTime loads Charlie starts crying again.

Dec" Hey Charlie, oh why are you crying"

Charlie" I miss you, Ali and Isla"

Dec" Oh Charlie, you will have me off, I know this is hard, we miss you too"

Stephen*puts his hands on her shoulders* I am looking after her"

Dec" Good, look its okay, we will see each other for last episode of takeaway tonight won't we"

Charlie*nods* I know I just miss your hugs"

Dec" I miss your hugs as well"

Charlie" I love you dad"

Dec"I love you too"

Stephen puts his arms round Charlie.

Stephen" She is in safe hands"

Charlie*smiles* Puts her hands on his arms*

Stephen*kisses her head*

Dec" Don't worry we will be back together before you know it"

Charlie" Love you dad"

Dec" I love you too"

They end the FaceTime and Stephen still holds Charlie.
