Decided to write a story based on Carla and Nick which I hope to continue. I've added something to Nick's past which I know never really happened. Everything up to when Tracy gets out of the cupboard and ruins the wedding really happened. I'm changing it so Tracy never came into the Bistro and Carla and Nick got married and ended up having a perfect wedding day, despite the initial hiccup. Also, the problems Nick has been having with his brain damage aren't happening in this.
Carla and Nick pulled up on the street and got out of the taxi, that had just brought them back from Manchester airport.
"Thanks mate" Nick said as he passed the money to Tyrone
"No problem, wait there and I'll give you a hand with your bags"
After spending two weeks in France with her husband, Carla definitely hadn't been looking forward to returning to reality.
One thing she was looking forward to was catching up with her friends and family who she had missed more than she cared to let on.
Kate had just come out of the factory when she saw her sister get out of the taxi, so immediately went over to see the two newlyweds.
"Hey you" Carla said when she saw Kate
"How was the honeymoon?"
"Words can't even describe it" Carla said as Nick came and stood by the pair and wrapped his arm around Carla's waist
"We'll have to catch up later, I've just nipped out to go to Roy's"
"Yes well I was about to text you actually, see if you and your Dad, and Kaz of course wanted to come round for dinner later?"
"Sounds great, I'll tell Dad when I get back"
"See you around seven then?"
"Perfect"
Kate left so Nick and Carla picked up their bags.
"Oh look there's a police car, wonder what that's doing here"
"No idea"
When they got outside the flat, Carla and Nick were both surprised when they saw two policemen stood outside.
"Can we help you?" Nick asked
"Are you Nick Tilsley"
"Yes that's me"
"Would It be okay if we came in Mr Tilsley?"
Carla and Nick were both wondering what was going on, as the two policemen followed them into the lounge.
"I'm afraid we've got a bit of bad news for you. Your ex-wife has been involved in a car crash"
"What Leanne?" Carla asked feeling shocked
"No, your ex-wife Emma Tilsley, so obviously there's the matter of your two daughters"
Carla was so confused, he'd never mentioned this Emma and he'd certainly not mentioned anything about having children.
"What's going to happen to them? Where are they now?"
"They're with a temporary foster family at the minute, but in the long run we're hoping they'll come to live with you"
Nick looked at Carla, not knowing what to say.
"Mr Tilsley is this going to be an issue?" one of the policemen asked but there was still no response from Nick
"Of course it's no problem, no problem at all" Carla said with a small smile
"We understand that this must be a bit of a shock, so we'll give you tonight to get things sorted and then a social worker will be around with the girls tomorrow"
The two policemen left leaving a very shocked Carla and Nick.
That man certainly had some explaining to do!
I'd love to know what you think, so please leave a review!
