Hey:)
Sorry I haven't updated in a while I've been busy with Christmas,
Thankyou so much for all your reviews, as a writer it gives you so much encouragement to continue. A special thankyou to bluecube76, your review was so in depth! I've watched some of the episodes/clips from 1996 on youtube and I loved them on the episodes last year, I agree their actors have great on screen chemistry!
Enjoy x

As Derek stepped out the house he grabbed his phone out of his pocket dialling a number "Rob? It's Derek. Remember you said you owed me one? Well I was wondering if you could do me a favour, I've got an issue that needs sorting out, or rather a person, David Wicks"
As Derek walked back home, he had a smug smile on his face.
Bianca went upstairs after Carol "Mum?"
"I'm in Tiffany's room" She said
"Nana Carol's doing my hair" Tiffany said
Bianca looked to Carol who had a brush in her hand as she put in Tiffany's plaits. Once Carol had finished Tiffany's hair she walked out the room
"Mum…" Bianca said going after her
"I need to get ready" she said attempting to go in to her room but Bianca caught her arm
"You know I just want the best for you" Bianca said honestly
Carol corrected her "No Bianca, you just want the best for yourself. Please just give your dad another chance"
"I don't want him hurting you" Bianca insisted
"Look, if he hurts me then fine, you can say I told you so" Carol said stubbornly "But please just let me get on with my life"
Bianca nodded "Fine, but if he hurts you…"
"Don't worry I'd kill him first" Carol joked giving a smile
"You really are happy aren't you" Bianca said noticing the smile lighting up her mums face
"Yeah, I am" Carol said
"Good, well I better go and get dressed
Across the square, Tanya was cooking a Roast Dinner "Did you invite Bianca and the kids for lunch?" she asked Max
"Sorry, I forgot" Max said as he looked for his newspaper
"Max" Tanya sighed
"I'll do it in a bit" said Max as he flicked through the newspaper
"Well when you ring her ask her and she got some spare carrots" Tanya said
As Carol was doing her hair her phone beeped, she smiled as it was a message from David
'Hi, I was wondering if you wanted to go out for Lunch?"
She replied 'I'd love to' before finishing her hair
Bianca came in to Carol's bedroom "Mum, Tanya's invited us round for Lunch"
"I can't" Carol said applying her makeup "I'm going out with David"
"Well you can go and give her some carrots whilst you tell her" Bianca said
"Carrots?" Carol questioned
"She ran out" Bianca said
"Thanks Carol!" Tanya said when Carol came over with the carrots
"No problem, erm I won't be able to come to lunch" Carol told her
"What? I've cooked enough to feed the whole square" Tanya said "Why not?"
"I'm going out for lunch with David" Carol said nervously as Max was sat down at the table
Max looked up from his newspaper "David?"
"I never knew he was back" Tanya said glancing to Mac
"Derek told me about him coming back" Max said rolling his eyes "Don't tell me you're back together again"
"Yeah we are actually" Carol frowned
"Well, if you're happy that's the main thing" Tanya smiled "Why don't you bring David to lunch?"
Max raised his eyebrows at Tanya
"Yeah alright, thanks Tanya" Carol smiled
Carol walked out of Tanya's with a big grin on her face, when she was walking back to her house she bumped into David, telling him about the change of plan and that they were going to Tanya's instead. As they talked Derek stared out of his bedroom window with a grin on his face, he couldn't wait for the revenge he had planned for David.
"I'll go and get ready then I'll come round" David smiled, giving Carol a quick kiss on the cheek before going back home.
Bianca was sat on the couch watching tv with Whitney when Carol came back in "When you going out to lunch?"
"Change of plan" Carol smiled "David's coming to lunch, Tanya invited him"
"Right" Bianca said giving a little smile "You do know Derek's coming to lunch"
"Well I'm sure he can be civilized" Carol said, knowing what she was saying definitely wasn't true
Bianca got up as she heard a knock on the door "That must be him"
"Hi" David smiled
"You alright Dad?" She asked him as she let him in
"Not too bad…" He said
"Are we ready to go?" Carol asked, coming out the living room
"Come on kids" Bianca shouted upstairs
Bianca looked at her parents, she knew she should be happy, her mum and dad were getting back together, but David wasn't to be trusted, she knew that and her mum did, she just hoped he could change.
When they arrived at Tanya's all the family were already sat down at the table as Tanya was just about to serve dinner, Jack's eyes widened as he saw David coming in he looked towards Derek who was fuming.
Just as Derek was about to open his mouth Carol shot him a look "Don't"
"I was just going to say how lovely dinner smells" Derek said
"Great" Carol muttered as the 2 seats left were next to Derek
Derek quickly texted Rob 'Meet me in half an hour, I've got the perfect opportunity'
Carol reluctantly sat down next to Derek, and then David sat next to her.
"You alright Derek?" David said smugly
Tanya sat down once she had gave out the dinner, she could feel the awkward atmosphere
"How's Pat?" Derek asked David "Oh silly me she's 6 foot under, you could be joining her pretty soon"
"Stop it Dad" Alice said giving Carol and apologetic look for her father's behaviour
"That was lovely Tanya" Derek said once they'd finished "I'm glad I'm head of the table, it's suiting seeing as I'm the head of the family, some people would do good to remember that"
"What a hero" David said in mockery
Derek's phone beeped as he got a text 'I'm outside' "Please excuse me" he said going outside
"Where's he going?" Jack said hearing the front door close
"God knows" Max sighed
"Right do we get the plan?" Derek asked Rob outside "Dinners nearly over now, so park your car round the corner then when David starts to get up and go I'll text you and you come round the corner and slam into him before quickly driving off"
"I get it" Rob nodded "It's risky though, I don't do much like this anymore"
"Don't worry I'll make sure you don't get caught" Derek said handing over a wad of cash
"What if my Car gets damaged" Rob said
"Then send me the bill" Derek said "Right I need to get back inside"
"Where've you been?" Jack asked when Derek came back in
"Just making a few calls" Derek lied
Derek waited nervously, flinching every time David moved thinking he was going to go, a bead of sweat started to trickle down his forehead.
"We better get going" Bianca said
"Yeah, me too" Jack said getting up
"Right I better be off as well then, come on Alice" Derek said sending a text to Rob 'Come around the corner in about 2/3 minutes'
As they started to disperse out the house Max and Tanya stood at the front of the house waving them all goodbye.
"Are you coming?" Carol asked Bianca
"Just a minute" Bianca said in mid conversation with Tanya
"Leave them talking" David laughed as him and Carol began to walk home
"Thanks for having us Tan…" Derek said and then smiled as a car whizzed round the corner
"Get out the road!" Bianca shouted at Carol and David who were crossing the road
Carol turned round noticing a Car coming towards them at a fast speed "David watch out!" she said pushing him out the way.
David was in a daydream but snapped out from it as Carol pushed him, all of a sudden he saw the car smash into Carol
"No" Derek said in horror as he saw his sisters body smash against the windscreen of the car before it zoomed off leaving her lifeless looking body lying in the road.
"Mum!" Bianca screamed rushing towards her
"Carol…" David said, his eyes filling up with tears as he knelt down beside her, looking at the blood trickling down her forehead.
