Kacey POV
The others, apart from Harley, came round and we watched tv and ate lots of food. It was Friday so we didn't have to wrap up too early. Around 11:30pm mum said that they'd better get a move on. She offered to give them a lift.
"right c'mon you lot, get in the car and I'll give ya a lift home." offered Carol.
"are you sure Mrs Barry?" asked Jared.
"yeah, I mean we can walk." Paisley said.
"don't be silly! It's pitch black outside and if anything happened to you lot I'd never forgive myself."
"yeah Pais, it's dark. And it's Friday, perfect time to abduct a child." said Jasmine, being the sensible girl she is.
"Jas, you worry way too much! Okay, but Kace, you gonna be alright on ya own?" Paisley turned to face her friend.
"yeah, I mean Dynasty might actually decide to drag herself away from Kevin and actually get herself home!" Kacey laughed.
"well I don't wanna leave you on your own Kace. Come as well, the ride might do you something good." Carol suggested to her youngest child.
"okay, give us a sec to put me shoes on."
Kacey POV
I ran upstairs quickly and stuck on a pair of converse. I looked in the mirror, I looked so much more...feminine nowadays. I came out of my daydream and headed back downstairs.
"right, you ready?" asked Carol.
"uh huh." replied Kacey.
Carol POV
We went to the car and I started it up. Kacey sat in front, Jasmine sat in the seat behind Kacey, Lula sat in the middle, then Jared sat next to her with Paisley on his lap. I made sure I drove extra careful because of Paisley. I dropped Jasmine off first, then Lula. I let Jared and Paisley go a little bit before as they wanted some alone time. I reluctantly agreed but made Paisley promise to text Kace as soon as she reached home. Then it was just me and Kace.
"you tired? You must be tired." stated Carol, trying to make conversation.
"yeah sort of, I'll probably fall asleep as soon as my head hits a pillow." Kacey half laughed.
"hmm...kace?" asked Carol.
"yeah?" answered Kacey.
"you know you can tell me anything, and that I'll always love you?"
"yeah, I know that." Kacey Simply answered.
"good, so if there's anything.." began Carol.
"mum, there's nothing okay!" snapped Kacey.
"alright grumpy pants, anyways, you okay now?" Kacey was starting to get annoyed with this question. But she didn't show it.
"yeah I am, thanks mum, for being there today."
"anytime baby, god can't believe Barry is back, gave me a flaming heart attack!"
"mum...do ya hate him?" Kacey asked.
"well he betrayed us, you especially." Carol answered, though not really answering Kacey's question.
"I don't hate him though mum, I mean, one day I will forgive him." Kacey empathised the 'will'.
"hmm...and you would tell me right?"
"yeah, course. And you wouldn't hate me right?" asked Kacey.
"of course not."
"cool." Kacey said.
Kacey POV
I still didn't tell mum, and why is she digging me with so many questions?! Maybe she's tired herself. Mum didn't speak for the whole ride home.
Carol POV
Ugh I cannot believe that girl, I tell her I won't hate her, she says she would tell me. But she hasn't. Why won't she?! Should I confront her? Or wait for her to tell me the truth? I don't know. Kacey got changed for bed, Paisley text her and said both her and Jared reached home safely. Dynasty came in, she was half asleep so prodded upstairs shouting a groggy goodnight. I headed for bed too.
Authors note: aren't Carol and Kacey a right pair?! They have both put aside their worries but they won't tell the truth! Hehehe. Sorry this is a short chapter, next one will be longer :) please review and tell me what you think, I might give ya a mention ;) xxx
