Jess sniffed weakly as her sister poured out a glass of red wine, and a glass of water for herself, as she was driving. The two sisters were sitting on kitchen stools, sitting up at the bunker. Bex gave her a sister a supportive smile.
The red head jumped up. " I need to go to Mum's, I need to, need to, need to-"
Bex got up and placed her hand on Jess's shoulder. " Jessie, calm down. Mum has taken care of everything, ok?"
Jess nodded, taking deep breaths as the blonde girl led her back to her seat.
Bex lifted up her glass and took a sip of water. She looked her sister in the eyes.
" Right.. I want you to talk me through everything that happened, ok?" Her sister said in soothing tones, as she lowered her glass. Jess nodded, and clenched her wine glass, taking a small gulp of its contents.
" Well, it was all going great." She started off shakily.
" still works there, and the school is literally.. it has such a great atmosphere, and full of life, you know?". Jess explained. Bex nodded.
" But then.." Jess bit her lip.
" He still works there Bex. Chris is still there."
Bex nearly choked on her water.
" What?" She spluttered as Jess patted her back. Jess nodded sadly.
" Chris as in.. The Chris. As in, Mr Mead. As in the-"
" Yes Bex. Him." Jess interrupted.
Bex exhaled slowly.
" Well.. what happened?"
Jess looked up.
" Well, he's my head of department, so he's technically my boss." Jess swirled her wine around the glass.
" I freaked out a bit, so he left me alone."
Bex widened her eyes.
" Wait a minute, you still haven't told him?!". Bex exclaimed.
Jess let out a small laugh.
" Yeah, like that's something you just weave into conversation!" She smirked.
" Bex, I haven't seen the man in four years! It's too late." Jess sighed.
Now it was Bex's turn to laugh.
" Too late? Jess it is never too late for something like this! He has a right to know! You should have told him years ago! He's going to find out eventually." Bex said.
Jess closed her eyes.
" I know, I know.. But I need time. I need to find the right time to tell him. He might not even care."
Bex snorted.
" This is Chris we're talking about. He is one of the most caring, thoughtful people I've ever known. Of course he'll care!".
Jess sighed, and let out a yawn.
Bex rolled her eyes.
" You look tired mrs."
Jess nodded sleepily.
" I'm gonna go, let you rest. I'll come around tomorrow, ok?" Bex kissed her on the cheek. Jess closed her eyes, and waited until she heard the door close. She put her head on her folded arms on the table, and sighed. She gently closed her eyes, and she was asleep in minutes.
Rebecca Fisher, or Bex as she was more commonly known, pulled the car to a halt as she drove down the dark street. She quickly opened the door and got out, locking the car as she walked. When she reached the familiar emerald green house door, she paused. Should she...?
Bex nodded to herself. She needed advice, now. She rang the door bell eagerly.
It only took a minute for the door to open, and for Bex to be greeted by Rob. Rob looked surprised, and gave her a warm smile.
" Bex! We weren't expecting to see you tonight."
Bex gave a small smile.
" Rob."
She took a step forward into his open arms and let herself be enveloped in one of the famous Scotcher hugs. She loved Rob. He was like a dad to her, a bit more than her real dad. She buried her head in his chest. Rob smiled into her hair.
" Well come in then. Karen's just through in the living room." Bex followed him through the nearest entrance.
" Look who it is." Rob said cheerfully.
Bex smiled at her mother, who was curled up on the couch.
" Hello love!" Karen said, slightly surprised. " What are you doing here?". Bex looked to the ground.
" I kinda.. need to talk to you. About Jess." She bit her lip. Rob cleared his throat. " I'll just.."
Bex shook her head. " It's fine, you can stay. You'll find out anyway."
Rob nodded and sat down on the edge of the couch, putting his arm around Karen, which followed with the blonde's mum putting her head against his bicep. Bex sat down on the small armchair.
" Right.. well when I came to greet Jess when she came home from work, she was in a right state. Crying, kept saying that she'd ' screwed up."
Concern clouded over both Karen and Rob's faces.
" I talked to her about it..." Bex continued, and then let out a sigh.
" Look, long story short.. Chris is still there, and he's her HOD." Bex threw her hands up. Karen's eyes widened.
" Chris is there. As in... Chris." Rob spluttered. Bex nodded.
" Well.. What is she going to do?". Karen questioned. Bex shrugged.
" I don't know. I really don't. I just thought... Look Mum. You could get through to her." She said. Karen bit her lip. Bex groaned.
" Come on Mum. You've got to make her see sense and sort out her affairs. Please Mum." She pleaded.
Karen sighed, then nodded.
" Ok. Ok."
Bex grinned.
" I'll talk to her when she gets home from work tomorrow." She said. Ron gave her a slight squeeze. Bex jumped up. " Look, I better get going. See you's later." She gave her Mum a kiss on the cheek, and then Rob, and then she was gone.
Karen sighed, and ran her fingers through her hair.
" What are we going to do Rob?" She stood up. Rob got up in front of her, and took her hand.
" Don't worry, ok? Soon, all of it will be out in the open, and we can deal with it. As a family." He said. Karen nodded. Rob pulled her close.
" No more secrets, ok? No more hiding. We'll sort it all out." He looked Karen in the eyes. Karen smiled, as his lips met hers, and he gave her a sweet, soothing kiss. Her smile grew wider, and she hugged him, trying to push out of her mind what her eldest daughter had just told her.
