It was the fifth of December 2009. Melissa and Eddie were rowing once again. The argument was nothing new. It was about how Eddie was still in love with Melissa's sister Rachel.
"Its always going to be Rachel isn't it?" Melissa screamed.
"I love her!" Eddie yelled. Melissa rolled her eyes. She hated being second best to Rachel.
"She doesn't even care Eddie! She hasn't spoken to you since our child was born!" Melissa yelled back.
Eddie went to calm his crying child down. Melissa followed him. "Get out Eddie! Take that little brat with you!" Melissa screamed at Eddie.
"She's not a brat she's your daughter!" He said lifting his 3 month old draught out from the cot, and held her close rocking her gently with tears in his eyes, He knew hat he made a mistake by leaving Rachel as he was always there for her and it still hurt him when someone would talk about her like that.
Rachel was at her home, she had tried to move on from Eddie but she found herself that she wasn't able to as Eddie was her true love, it was the first time in along time that she had found someone who loved her for who she is and not for her past.
Rach was in the kitchen looking out the window , watching the snow fall down, she smiled to herself thinking about the times that Her and Eddie had in the snow, building snowmen, having snowball fights and making snow angels. As she was thinking about this a few tears rolled down her face, she missed Eddie so much and would do anything to get back with him.
Eddie was packing Amanda's last few bits before he put her silver puffy coat on that kept her warm, he put his bags over his shoulder before lifting Amanda up and holding her close "Daddy's gonna take you to someone special" he said softly at her , Amanda was asleep, Eddie smiled looking at her before carrying her downstairs, he put her in the pram and strapped her in. Once he had strapped her in he went into the living room and saw Mel
"I'm going now"
Good!" Mel snapped
Eddie sighed and went back to the hallway and lifted his fine brown jacket and put it on before opening the front door and pushing Amanda out, the streets was white with snow, he smiled and started to walk away from Mel's house. He was glad that he never married her but he kind of hated himself for getting Mel pregnant instead of Rach, as he knew that Rach would care about the baby more than herself.
As Eddie was walking down the road he looked around watching the kids play in the snow, he smiled and thought back to the time where it was him and Rach , he would do all the snowball fights, Making snow angels and building Snowmen all over again, he kept smiling as he know that he was able to do it all over again, He walked further down the road seeing Bolton, Dan, Paul, Alseeha playing in the snow, Bolt noticed him and looked over then looked back at his little gang
"Isn't that ?" He asked looking shocked
Paul looked "yeah it is bolt"
Bolt looked at Eddie and shouted
"Alright Sir Where you heading"
Eddie looked around seeing them and smiled
"Heading towards 's house"
"Aww, what's happened?"
"Oh Melissa had kicked me out"
"Aww why sir?"
"Because I'm still in love with Miss Mason"
"Aww that's sweet" bolt said "I'll let you get on"
Eddie nodded with another smile and walked across the road, he wasn't far from Rachels, Amanda had woken up so he stopped and got a bottle out from the bag before handing it to her and then carried on walking , he was getting cold but tried not to show it, he wondered if any of the shops was open so he could surprise Rach with some flowers and some wine.
He went passed a Co-op and went in, he picked up a basket and put it on top of the pram and started to look around the shop, he looked at the frozen food before he reached the chocolate aisle and walked down it trying to remember what chocolate Rach liked, she was a little picky about her chocolate, she didn't like any chocolate that had nuts in. Eddie found some chocolates and checked to see if they had nuts in , they didn't so he put them into the basket, he remembered that he had come in for flowers which was at the front of the store, so he walked all the way back to the from of the store and picked out some nice and fresh flowers, then headed towards the wine aisle and looked at the wine once he got there and looked at the Red wine thinking on what one Rach would like.
He picked one and then placed a few bottles in the basket, he had got everything that he wanted, he thought to himself about getting a new coat so he walked from the wine aisle to the clothes aisle, Amanda needed changing but he couldn't change her yet as the toilets was past the metal detectors. He looked at the costs and picked up the cheapest one and tried it on? It suited him so he took it off and put it in the basket and headed to the tills, the queues was quite long as everyone was panic buying, he noticed the the self service was empty so he went over and started to use that,
After he paid he went into the baby changing rooms and lifted Amanda out the pram and put her on the changing bed and changed her nappy, he soon changed her and left the shop, he stopped and took of his old coat and put his new one on and walked to Rachels.
Eddie was now on Rachels street, he walked down the road a bit and reached her house, he looked at it and took a breath, it had been a few months since he last saw Rachels house, he opened the gate and pushed Amanda into the garden and knocked on the door waiting on an answer.
Rachel was still in the kitchen and came out of her daydream and had just put the kettle on and heard someone knocking at the door, she sighed thinking it was Mel. She walked through the hallway and went to the door and thought "what if it's Eddie?" Her heart started to beat fast as she started to think that it was Eddie, she opened the door seeing Eddie standing there
Eddie had a smile on his face hearing the door open and once he saw Rach the smile for bigger "Rachel"
Rach looked at him, she was shocked, but she was also happy
"What are you doing here?" She asked in a shock tone.
