Hi,
Please don't be to harsh on me, this is the first fanfic I ever wrote and since english is not my mother language (I'm french), there can be grammar/spelling mistakes in the text.
Please review, even if it's just to say that you don't understand my english or that my story sucks, at least it would help me a little (I also enabled anonymous reviews).
Disclaimer : I don't own Skins (unfortunately …). And I don't know what the hell is a beta'd text, so I guess this text isn't.
In this fanfic, Skins never happened, and I kept some of the characters. I hope it won't be too boring to read.
- I'm home !
Emily closed the door behind her and took off her jacket. She liked her job, but it always felt great to come back home. Her seven-year-old boy ran in her arms with a big grin on his face.
- Mummy ! the kid said, full of happiness.
His father came right after him. He smiled seeing his beautiful wife and his lovely child together. Emily knew she was one of the luckiest woman on earth. For ten years she and JJ had been together, and her love for him had never weaken. They were best friends since kindergarden actually, and they spent all their time together since then. Even if her sister had some troubles accepting her relationship with "such a geek", they started dating in high school, and it worked out. They now had a little boy, called Freddie, named after one of JJ's best mate, who died in a car accident just before Emily delivered the baby.
- Hi love ...
He leaned down to kiss his wife. She started kissing him back, but her son grabbed her arm and squeezed it.
- Mummy … mummy … MUMMY !
She broke her kiss with a slight sigh, and, looking into her husband wonderful blue eyes, she smiled and answered the kid.- Yes darling ?
- Can you come help me with my school work ? I don't understand Daddy when he tries to explain maths …
Emily laughed.
- Neither do I, I'm afraid … come on, show me your work.
Later that day, after the little boy's homework had been done, Emily sat in the garden with JJ, while they watched Freddie play.- His teacher wants to talk to us … She wrote in his notebook.
- What for ? Emily asked, worrying a bit.
When it came to her child, she was almost always over-protective. Having a baby while she was only 19 caused her a lot of trouble. Her sister Katie, who couldn't have children because of a premature menopause, had supported her, but her mother Jenna had been really angry. They fought a lot about it, and it ended up with her moving in with JJ after a particularly rough argument. She didn't breath a word to her mother for weeks after that, but they eventually talked again in the end. But she wasn't as close to her as she was before.
- I don't know … Bobbins, I hope he didn't cause trouble at school … It's my fault, autistic, stupid, not good enough to be a father …
Emily took him in her arms and he relaxed a bit. Even if it wasn't as often as before, he did got locked on regularly, when he was stressed out. She kissed him on the forehead.
- Stop that. You're a wonderful dad, JJ. Probably the best one I know. And I won't let you talk about yourself like that.
She stared at him, overflowed by the strength of her love for him. What were the ads to find your soul mate in kindergarden ?- I don't work tomorrow. I can deal with his teacher if you want. Meanwhile you could hang out with Cook ! You haven't been seen each other a lot lately, and that's a shame, you know.- You can't go alone … it's not fair … We'll go together.
- Aww, you're so sweet ...
She kissed him. Gosh she loved the taste of theses lips …- What's the name of his teacher again ?
- Campbell …
She sat down in her long chair, closed her eyes and enjoyed the heat of this beautiful day of September. A few minutes later, she smiled to herself and said :
- Then we'll see what that Miss Campbell wants ...
