Ok so I'm starting a new story with a little twist. Please read and review I'd love to know what you all think? Thanks.
Ok so a little background. - Peter and Carla are friends. Very good friends. Carla was pregnant with Liam's baby when he died. Tony still died. Peter and Leanne split up 2 years ago when Carla's daughter was just about 1- Leanne ran off with nick as she was bored of Peter and sick of looking after him when he got drunk. Carla supported Peter and they have grown closer ever since. Michelle is around and rob returned recently to find out Carla had a daughter and swore he would never leave her alone. They have a good relationship. Frank never happened. Well not yet anyway. There are time differences and some twists and turns. :)
Enjoy please read and review.
Chap 1
"Mamma... Mamma"
"Baby what's wrong?..." Carla stirred as she glanced at the clock. 3.12am. "Baby it's very late" she looked at the little silhouette figure stood in her door way as the little girl sucked her soother carrying her comfort blanket.
"No mumma not late I wake up it morning time mumma"
Carla couldn't help but giggle at the innocence of her daughter as she made her way over to pick her up. "Lia I've told you before it doesn't work like that... Look outside... Look how dark it is sweetie. We have to go back to bed" Carla tried to reason with her but her little girl was going through a phase and needed her attention. Suffering from nightmares. At 3 years old she was a very independent little girl the image of Carla. Beautiful eyes. Liam's eyes. Carla loved her. She adored her she had a tough time after Liam died coping with the pregnancy and that's when she found a friend in Peter. They were very close since Leanne left 2 years ago abandoning him and Simon and they helped each other out. She Helped stay off the booze. Leanne had taken off with nick she was fed up of Peter she resented him for ruling her life. In some ways Peter would say that her leaving was for the best it forced him to be independent and step up to the plate with Simon.
"Sweeties" Lia smiled at her as they walked around Carla's apartment making their way to the kitchen.
"No no baby we are going to have some warm milk then back to bed"
After a few minutes of lying on the sofa with Lia listening to her breathing softly as she cuddled Carla, her little hand softly stroking Carla's neck playing with the little hairs at the base of her neck she was reluctant to move her.
Carla decided to bring her back to her bed with her as they climbed under the duvet Lia stirred slightly.
"Mummy... I tired" Lia rubbed her eyes.
"I know Lia. We're in mummy's bed ok... Back to sleep" Carla soothed her little girl as she lay beside her falling into a deep sleep.
Carla stirred at 6am and picked up her phone. 2 new messages.
