My Sister's a superstar. So why am I forgotten? Ch 4.
Ep 7- Fearless.
As I read their letter I felt my hands trembling. After I had finished I looked up and saw the anxious faces of the only people who cared about me. And I looked up at them and said 'I am an only child.' 'What? What was in that letter?' Mum's voice broke as she sobbed on Kevin's shoulder. 'Those callous bitches think that I will let them do this to me? No, not anymore. I am finally standing up for myself.' I then ball the letter up and put it under the covers, right next to my leg. I look directly at Joe, 'Will you tell your girlfriends that if I ever see their faces again it will be a lifetime too soon, please?' Strangely he smiled. 'What girlfriends? Me and Kevin are single men.' I frowned but then stopped cause it blooming hurt, wincing. I felt Nick's cool hands on my head. 'You ok?' I look at him. And my heart was almost bursting. I smile 'Yeah fine. What is Joe talking about?' Kevin answers before anybody else can. 'Did you really think that we would stay with them? After what they've done to you?' My jaw drops. They broke up over me. Over me. 'You---you didn't have to do that.' Nick puts his arm round me and I, unconsciously, rest my head on his chest. 'But they wanted to.' he whispers in my ear. That makes me grin. Not what he said but how he said it. As if it was something for my ears only, like I was special. He is gazing deep into my eyes and my heart stops. Just for a beat. And out of the blue he smiles and says 'You're fearless aren't you?' I almost laugh. Me fearless. 'No, I am nowhere near fearless. So many things scare me.' 'That's not what I meant. I meant how you face up to your fears. It might take some time but you do it. Like you did to me.' I consider this. I suppose it's true. 'It takes a LONG time. But I guess your right,' I concede. He smiles tenderly down at me. As I blush I hear Frankie whisper to his mom. 'Mommy, is Nick gonna kiss Kat? Cause if he does her heart might explode. Look at it now.' I close my eyes and let my head flop back. 'Thanks Frankie.' 'We had better go. You'll be wanting sleep.' NO!!! 'Oh. Ok then. Will you all come back tomorrow?' I say this looking at Nick. He grins, nods and the family goes to leave. Then, as they are all out of the door, Nick runs back and kisses the top of my head. Fearless. I smiles as I fall asleep, holding on to that moment.
Ep 8 – Why is he blushing?
As my eyes open a slow grin spreads across my face. Nick kissed me. Ok, it was only the top of my head. But it's a start. And he'll be here. I sit up. The doctor said that I'd be out in 3-4 weeks, depending on how much I eat. But, the thing is, I don't really want to eat. I'll get fat again, then Nick will hate me. Or will he? Maybe I can stay like this and eat? Exercise. Ugh. But for Nick I will. Mum walks in and my grin fades. She has my ex- sisters with her. 'Get out.' They look shocked that I am speaking. They thought I would still be weak. Well, I felt it but they don't know that. Mum nudges them and they look down and make their false apologies. I give them a look of complete and utter disgust. 'I told you to leave. I have nothing to say to you. I have no sisters.' Then Demi burst out with, 'How dare you talk to me like that! I am your sister no matter what you do.' I raise my eyebrow. This one meant 'really, you wanna try me sunshine?' She backed down. 'Out' I turn my head. Its over. As they leave I hear Mum sigh. She understand, I know she does, but it must be hard for her to watch us all fight like this. 'Mum, I'm sorry but I can't accept them, they don't mean it. I won't forgive them, they left it too late.' She hugs me. 'I know, I just hoped that they would mean it.' The door opens and Frankie sprits into the room and jumps onto my bed. I laugh and hug him. Nick runs after him and stops. 'You laughed?' I raise my head, puzzled. 'Yeah. Why?' 'I've never heard you laugh before. I liked it.' I blush and look at Frankie, who, as usual is staring at the monitor which shows my heart rate. 'Frankie, what are you doing?' 'Why does your heart always beat faster when Nick comes in?' Err. Cause I love him you fool! 'Cause he brings you and your family and I get excited.' I can feel myself blushing red again. 'Nick what did you say?' Joe demands, seeing my red face. 'Nothing' he protests, 'it was Frankie, not me.' 'This time.' We both blush at Kevin's words. The thing is, it's true. As my blush fades I tell them that I am allowed out in a few weeks. 'What about your medication. What's it for?' I can hear the worry in Nick's voice. 'The disorder I have means that any strong emotions I have are exaggerated, and I have pills of that and some anti-depressants. I'll be fine; I just have to have a cast on my leg.' 'Why what's wrong with your leg?' 'I broke it falling down the stairs.' 'But you'll be ok?' I grin 'I'll be fine.' 'Nick don't worry, the love of your life won't die from a broken leg.' I hear Kevin's sarcastic voice and raise both eyebrows. They are saying 'excuse me? What is he talking about?' Then I glance at Nick and he is going bright red! I am so stunned that for a moment my eyebrows drop. I thought he would laugh it off. But, he didn't what is going on? 'Frankie. Why is Nick going red?' Frankie would tell me, he tells everybody everything. 'Well---'
