That night Ray set up a tent in the garden as the kids insisted. A drunk Owen and a drunk Ray trying to put a simple tent up was hilarious. They both got hit with the poles a few times. the kids stayed in the tent with Abbi and Charly, which they was really looking forward to camping in the back garden just as much as the kids was. The tent was huge, it had four rooms. Charly and Abbi in one, Oliver in one, Lewis and blake in the other and then Kyla in the last one. The kids settled in the tent, while we carried on drinking and laughing. Owen was getting drunk and spilling every embarrassing story he had about me. Even told the story about how drunk I was at his rugby game, I swear that Is his favourite story to tell, but of course he changes the details of the morning after, which the girls always laughed at. I just got "takes after her big brother with her drinking skills" from Nicola which started to turn into a little debate on who can drink the most. Of course I wasnt even questioned, being the lightweight I am.
My brother really took a liking to Owen "Amelia, you need to keep this one hes a gooden, I've already gave him the talk" he gave a stern look to Owen, who widened his eyes at me. of course I already knew that. "Also, I need to meet Ben and Ellis and give them the talk about these two! They're my sisters too" the girls awed at my brother. I rolled my eyes how soppy he gets when hes drunk. My brother had known the girls ever since I was scouted for the home town team. "Have you spoke to Dad?" My brother eyed me up. "Course I havent, he doesnt have anything to do with me, remember what happened?" I started to get a little bit agitated but it was interrupted by my brother face timing someone.
"Alright Dad" I widened my eyes, I went to storm off but Owen grabbed me, which caused me to fall on to his lap and whispered "just try, your safe here. I'm here" I nodded, walked round to my brother and peered over his shoulder. I copied my brother "Alright Dad" my dad looked shocked. "Amelia, is that really you?" "Yup" "you havent changed one bit, I miss you, you'll have to come and see my new house. I've moved out of Ruth's" I was shocked. "Urm maybe, well see when I can get time off" "right anyway kids works just rang me got another call out" perks of having a dad as an undertaker. my brother piped up "dad, Amelia's got a new boyfriend" he quickly flipped the camera showing Owen, Owen frowned at me and I frowned at my brother. "Amelia, is that THE Owen Farrell?" My brother turned the camera back round. Owen ran over to us. "Yes sir, I'm Owen it's a pleasure to meet you" "you look after her Farrell, hopefully I'll meet you soon!" "Yes sir you will" we said our goodbyes and hung up the phone. I slapped my brothers arm. "Why did you do that, dickhead!" I was so angry. "He misses you, we all miss you" we hugged and all my anger about my family faded away.
"I'm going to go to bed, night love youse" I said night and the girls climbed into the tent. Ray and Nicola followed us upstairs. "No funny business Faz" my brother raised his eyebrows. I went bright red and Owen laughed. "Me, never" Owen tried to pull the innocent face, pretending to be offended with his hand on his chest. It's like being a teenager bringing their first boyfriend home. The room had a four post king size bed. Owen took no time to get ready for bed and jumped in the middle, spreading his body across it. "Oi move over!" He reluctantly moved over. We snuggled up "night princess, sleep tight".
Of course I woke up in the middle of the night, as per usual at the moment Owen was cuddled up to the quilt on the other side of the bed. I snook out, tip toeing down stairs. I made myself a glass of water. I walked outside sipping my water, admiring the night sky. I heard someone fidgeting, I popped my head in the tent, the tent was filled with snores. "Amelia?" I heard a little voice. "Yeah?" "I cant sleep, this is scary" Oliver got out of his little room. "Come up with me and Daddy" he nodded and held my hand. "Can I have milk first?" I poured him a glass of milk and he downed it in 10 seconds. I carried him up to the room. Oliver got on my side and I was squeezed between him and Owen. Instantly, Oliver fell asleep and started to snore. Between Owen's snoring and Oliver's snoring I knew I wouldn't get much sleep.
I woke up to Owen kissing my neck. "Morning, fancy that funny business?" He whispered in my ear. "I would, but we have an intruder" I moved my head towards Oliver's direction. Owen lifted his head and found Oliver curled up to me. "Bloody kids" he laughed and just snuggled up to me and Oliver.
Someone burst into our room. "Auntie Amelia? Uncle Owen" Blake jumped on our bed, waking Oliver up. I was shocked at the Uncle Owen and the confidence this kid had. "Mummy made breakfast, she told me to come see if you're awake" he jumped on me and hugged me. "Well I'm awake definitely now" I laughed.
Owen lifted a tired Oliver up and leaped out of bed. Blake jumped off the bed holding Owen's hand. I smiled at them "Come on then, let's go get breakfast"
