Hey guys, New story. I bet you've all been thinking I've disappeared of the end of the earth right? Lol. I haven't forgotten about next eventful 24hours, the chapters for it are on my computer. Which has died… although under warranty they won't replace it apparently I broke it, I didn't. Either way it's fucked so there trying to retrieve my documents of it for me. Good news though my brother bought himself a laptop, so I've nicked it to post this. =] SSHHH!!! You can't tell him though.

Basically this a completely AU Naomily story, the idea I've had for a while… I won't give to much away because I want to tell it in the actually story. But basically….. life gets Complicated for Naomi when Emily moves to Bristol. Naomi Falls instantly…. But Emily's interested in someone else. Only complicating things more is the fact Naomi has a Son, Freddie's his Dad. All characters will appear.

Complicated Life - Chapter 1

"Mummy" Sam squealed as Naomi walked through the door, with Cook in tow.

The little boy run up to her and flung himself at her legs wrapping his arms around her, nearly knocking her over.

"Careful Sam" Effy called from behind him laughing.

"Hello little man" Naomi said as she lent down scooping the little boy up into her arms." Have you missed me?" she asked him as he flung his arms around her neck hugging her.

The little boy nodded his head in response and wriggled trying to break free from her grasp clearing wanting to get back down.

Naomi lent down and placed him carefully back onto the floor. She watched laughing as the little boy ran over to cook.

"Uncle Cookie spin me" the little boy demanded as he stood waiting impatiently, and expectantly in front of for Cook waiting for Cook to oblige.

"What else Sam?" Naomi asked him as she watched him jump form one foot to the other in front of Cook.

"Please" Sam squealed at cook.

Cook obliged immediately then, picking Sam up and holding him out in front of him. He waited for the little boy to stick his arms out either side of him like an aeroplane before starting to spin him round. Effy walked over to Naomi with a smile on her face as she watched Cook interact with Sam.

"Has he been good?" Naomi asked as Effy walked up beside her.

"Brilliant actually, cook took him down the park after breakfast this morning and met Thomas down there for a game of football. They stopped at the toy shop on the way back and cook bought him a new aeroplane, he'll probably show you when he remembers" Effy told Naomi as the pair stood there still laughing at Cook and Sam.

"Uncle cookie go faster please" the little boy requested shouting. Cook laughed and once again obliged to the little boys request, spinning him faster.

"tea?" Effy offered Naomi.

"please" Naomi replied following Effy into the kitchen, leaving the boys playing in the front room.

Effy switched the kettle on and sat opposite Naomi at the table. Effy stared at her and immediately knew that something was bothering Naomi. Before she could speak Naomi spoke up,

"I'm fine" she said her voice betraying her. Effy simply raised her eyebrows.

"Okay so I'm not fine" Naomi admitted "I'm glad you talk more now were adults Eff but I sure wish as we grew up you would loose your ability to be able to read my mind."

Effy smirked "No matter how old we are Naoms I'll always be all seeing and all knowing. So what's up?"

"I told Freddie I'd stop by with Sam on my way home" Naomi explained.

Effy just looked at her waiting for her to continue.

"And that was only because JJ talked to him again, Fred's wasn't even the one that arranged it. JJ phoned me at work and said Freddie says stop by with Sam on you way home. Cooks more of a father to him than Freddie is. Cook takes him to Football, Cooks buys him aeroplanes, Cook spins him around in your lounge. Cook buys him ice cream. You and cook watch him in the holidays while im at work. It's not like Freddie couldn't do it, he doesn't work. It's not like I'm asking him for Money I just want Sam to no who his dad his."

"Naom's you know what Fred's is like, even since his mum died back in college. He's closed off, he doesn't care about anything. I'm not saying he's a bad dad, well actually he's a shit Dad but give him a kick up the arse. And as for me and cook we love looking after him, he's a credit to you that boy. Your double. He come out with some political thing this morning that neither me or Cook could figure out. Cook loves him like he was his own. And I guarantee that he'll never mess with his head like Freddie has been you can count on cook." Effy finished getting up to make the tea when she heard the kettle click.

"I know Eff, I know I can count on both of you you're my family. I'm glad that Cook's a male role model for him. There's something I never thought I'd say" Effy laughed " Freddie's a shit role model, Cook's a much better farther figure. It's just Sam's going to be four soon, starting school. I don't want him to be one of those kids who gets bullied because he only has a mum."

"Babe he's your Son I really don't think there's any chance of him getting bullied or giving a fuck what people think of him." Effy said, smirk plastered on her face as she handed Naomi her tea. "By the way how was your date the other night? Sorry we couldn't have Sam me and cook both had to work." Effy continued after sitting down. Naomi bite her lip.

"Oh Nai, you didn't turn up did you?" Effy asked.

"I was planning to." Effy raised her eyebrows.

"What? Don't look at me like that Elizabeth Stonem, I was" Naomi said sternly.

"Don't you fucking Elizabeth Stonem me Naomi Campbell, why didn't you go?"

"Didn't want to have to explain where I was going." Naomi said looking away from Effy.

"Naomi" Effy started "you don't have to tell him who you were with, just that you were going out with a friend. He's 3 for fuck sake it's not like he's going to judge you for being Gay for Christ sake he doesn't even know what it means yet."

"Exactly, so until he does know what it means hes my number 1 priority."

Effy rolled her eyes annoyed having already had this conversation with Naomi many times.

"Naomi he will always been your number one priority he's your Son but that doesn't stop you having a social life does it?" Effy asked. As if he knew he was being talked about Sam run into the kitchen and jumped up on Naomi's lap. Effy looked at Naomi pointedly, Naomi glared back before turning her attention to her son.

"Look what uncle cookie bought me mum, It's an airoplan, airoplan, aeiroplan." The little boy tried to say the word 3 time before giving up. Despite them being his favourite things - thanks to JJ - he couldn't say the word. Instead he sat on his mum's knee grinning, holding the aeroplane out to her to show her.

Naomi took the aeroplane in her hand inspected it for the sake of her son, and then handed it back to him smiling at him.

"That's Great Samster, I hope you said thank you. Now go and get your shoes and coat on, we've gotta go and see your daddy." Naomi informed the little boy.

"But I want to stay and play with uncle cookie" The boy protested.

"No buts Sam, now go get your shoes and coat." Naomi told him sternly. The little boy jumped down from her lap and run of into the sitting room to find his shoes and coat.

Cook walked in, took a seat next to Effy kissing her forehead as he did so then turned his attention to Naomi.

"Did I hear you say Dad?" Cook asked. Naomi was dreading this bit, cook had grown very protective of her and Sam in the last three years and he wasn't impressed with the shit Job Freddie was doing of being a father.

"Yeah" Naomi answered him, pleading with him silently not to kick off.

"Waste of space that arsehole Naom's, he's a real fucking dick that bloke. Give it up already kid he ain't never going to be good enough for our Samster. It's not like Sam needs a father anyway your doing a great job. He's smart, funny, talented and quite grown up for his age, your doing a good job on your own." Cook voiced his opinion. Effy nodded her head in agreement.

"You and Eff help Cook, it's not all me." Naomi told him. Cook grinned a typical cook grin at her. Some things never change Naomi thought.

"Yer well Naomikins… that's what family's for." he said with that hint of Cook charm in his Voice.

Naomi smiled at him and Effy. Sam walked back into the kitchen with his shoes on the wrong feet and an arm through one sleeve of his coat dragging it behind him.

"arrrr Samster your shoes are on the wrong feet… come and sit on uncle Cook's lap" Cook said patting his knee. Sam did as he was told, cook took his shoe of and placed them on the right feet, before putting his coat on properly for him, zipping it up and then placing him back on the floor.

"right Little man, we have to go, say thank you to Uncle Cook and Auntie Effy for having you and for your aeroplane." Naomi told him.

The little boy ran to Effy throwing his arms up, she lent down from her chair picking him up and hugging him.

"Fank you" Sam told Effy once she'd placed him back on the floor.

"Your welcome sweetie" Effy answered the little boy.

He then proceeded to do the same with cook. Cook hugged the little boy and placed him back on the floor.

"Fank you" he said to cook.

"No probs squirt, anytime. Top dollar footie match today once of these days I might actually beat ya" he said ruffling the little boys hair.

Everyone said there goodbyes and Naomi and Sam headed in the direction of Freddie's.
