smile on her frown♥

5. I don’t even know what was up with Katie. She got a phone call and that was her out the house, me looking after Phoebe for the day and not knowing when she was going to return. The only thing she said to me was ‘I’ll text you later’ and guess what, no text. By now I was stood in the kitchen taking Phoebe’s dinner out the oven, yeah I cooked? Surprised! “Phoebe!” I called though got no answer. My eyes rolled ever so slightly, I pushed myself out from the kitchen and up the stairs to her room; her lights were on so I figured she was awake. By the time I entered her room I figured I was wrong, the female was asleep in the middle of her floor, pens beside her. She was ill, wasn’t she? Trying not to wake her up I picked the small female up and placed her on her bed and pulled the covers over her, allowing myself to sit down on the end beside her, my eyes just gazed at the young tanned female before hearing the door downstairs bang which actually made me jump. I happened to lean over kissing the top of my daughter’s head before making my way out the room and shutting the door up after myself. By the time I got down stairs, I saw a female figure in the kitchen. “You were cooking again?” She asked, I didn’t want to reply it was just one of those things that didn’t need a reply, she would have guessed without an answer. I allowed my body to push against the back of Katie’s, my arms going around her back as I hugged her from behind. I put my chin against her shoulder as I looked over it, my eyes narrowed ever so slightly as I watched her pick at the food in front of her. “Have you been crying?” She slowly stopped what she was doing her head turned to me, what was she thinking? “No, what makes you think that?” She asked as if she was surprised I asked that question; but I had a feeling she was putting this on, thought she’d go mad if I told her that, wouldn’t she? “Just a question, that’s all” She nodded wriggling herself out from my grip, and then walking into the other room. “I’m going off to bed, I’m knackered” I watched her movements closely, something was up I knew that, she didn’t need to tell me. “Babe, what was that all about this morning? I thought you were coming back” I had to ask her, even if I knew I weren’t going to get the answer I wanted it was good to ask. She leant over the sofa picking a top which was lying across it as she spoke. “You know what my brothers are like, they just scare me” But, really? Was that the right thing? “It weren’t your brothers, I know it wasn’t. Katie, your worrying me” With that she turned around with a frown on her face, shit … I had a feeling I knew what she was going to say and if I was right it wasn’t going to be good. “You worry too much you know” I watched as she walked over towards me her arms went around my neck gently. “If it was something to worry about I’d tell you” I allowed my arms to go around her waist as I felt her chin against my shoulder, I gathered she was looking behind me. “Do you want anything to eat before you go off to bed?” Her head shook pretty much straight away as she pulled herself away from me. “I’m fine, I’m not exactly hungry, just want to sleep” I understood that. “Go on, you go and get yourself ready and I’ll be up in a few minutes” I watched as her head shake again, this time she began to walk to the stairs. “No, don’t come up just for me, sit and watch TV or something, sit with Phoebe” She offered, I couldn’t help but think she wasn’t telling me something. “Phoebe’s fallen asleep, you know she’s really not well” Katie didn’t need to be told that, she knew it already. “Should really take her to the doctors” I nodded as did she. “Go on, get yourself to bed, you look shattered sweetheart” She gave a warm smile in my direction before taking a step up the stairs and then walking to the top. I was gutted that we didn’t get time to spend time with each other for the day but it was more the fact she wasn’t telling me what was up that got me to the most, maybe everything will calm down come the morning and she will revel all? Though this was Katie, she was emotional all the time. One minute she was happy and the next she was angry. “Aston! When you come up next can you bring a glass of water?” I heard her voice speak; this was when I pushed myself to the bottom of the stairs. “Sure babe” I smiled up to her to watch her nod once and then turn away. Something was wrong, but why was I worrying so much? If it was something really bad surly I would find out off her or her brothers, right? To be perfectly honest with you, at this point I wasn’t in the mood; I wanted to sleep though my mind was playing on that one topic. What was wrong with Katie? I didn’t brother going up to her room, instead I walked into Phoebe’s room where I laid on the bed next to her and just watched her sleep. As much as it made me think, watching her relaxed me a lot, was that strange? She slept so silently and seemed to happy, just if she new what really could be happening if things were differently, she wouldn’t be so happy I guessed. She’s be in the public eye with all these people looking, staring at her, asking the small female all these questions, she wouldn’t know what to think and I’m glad it wasn’t like that, yet. Maybe another month or so that was if Katie and I lasted, I mean right now I was having doubts. That was bad to say about the woman you love but it was true.
