Sorry guys there's not much going on in this chapter! It's more of a filler chapter!
Chapter 10.
The next morning Jacob had woken up to the sound of Grace giggling and sitting on the end of Connies bed. It was the last of his day off before he had to return to work the next day, Connie however took a few extra days off to spend with Grace.
"Mum, Jacob wake up!"
Jacob rubbed his eyes and adjusted to the lighting in the room before he sat up on the bed properly, he leaned over to grab his phone of the bedside cabinet to check the time and realised it was 10am.
"Hey princess! What time did you wake up?"
"Me and dad have been awake for ages! He's making breakfast downstairs for us and told me to come wake you and mum up"
"Oh did he now? Well listen sweetheart, you go down and join your dad and me and mum will be down soon, it's gonna take a while waking your mother up, she had a bit too many drinks last night"
Grace start laughing as she made her way to bedroom door "Tell me about it, anyway I'll go tell dad you're coming" Grace walked out the room and closed the door behind her.
Jacob leaned over to face Connie and start gently shaking her shoulder "Baby wake up"
Connies stirred and lightly whacked Jacob on the arm "leave me alone I'm tired and my head is absolutely banging!" She murmed and then attempted to pull the duvet over her head and face the other way.
"Well you should have known that was gonna happen after the amount you had to drink last night! Don't say I didn't warn you" Jacob said laughing whilst pulling the duvets back off her.
"No Jacob! I just want to stay in bed all day" Connie whined to him.
"Well if the situation was different, you know full well I'd allow you to stay in bed all day, but considering your daughter has flown all the way from America to spend time with her mum, she's not gonna be very happy to find out you're ditching her for sleep now is she babe?"
Connie looked up at him and had a smirk across her face "I still didn't thank you for the party and bringing Grace back did I?" And with that she pulled Jacob on top of her with the duvets still covering them both and started slowly kissing him. Jacob deepened the kiss and moved his hands down to her waist where he pulled her in closer. Connie moved her hands around his neck pushing him in deeper whilst she wrapped her legs around his waist. With their lips still attached Jacob had managed to take of Connie's night dress flinging it on the floor, he then moved his hands up to her back where he unclasped her bra and threw it on the floor to where he nightdress lay. Connie moved her hands to the front of Jacobs shorts and pulled them down, then slid them of his legs with her feet, and kicked them to the end of the bed under the duvet. Jacob had just moved his hands down to her waistline outlining her thong, he was about to slide them down until their bedroom door had flung open.
"Now if I'd known you two lovebirds were going to spend your morning doing this I would never have bothered with making a start on breakfast for you both."
Connie and Jacob both looked towards the door in shock to see Sam standing there with Jacob shooting him a stare. Jacob quickly rolled over in the duvet and pulled it up higher so it was covering Connies chest. "What the hell is he doing here?!" Was Connies instant reply.
"Sorry baby I was going to explain all this to you today, it's just he asked if he could stay over for one night as most the hotels would have been fully booked last night and he had nowhere to go so I said yes" Jacob responded back with whispering "Sorry" into her ear once more.
Connie looked up at Sam to see him still leaning against the door frame, smirking.
"I don't know what the hell you're smirking at, get the hell out of my bedroom right now and close the door on your way out! Don't ever think you can barge into someone's room like that!"
Sam stood there staring at Connie, almost as if he didn't hear her.
"I said GET OUT!" Connie shouted so loud it made Jacob jump next to her.
Sam walked out the room and slammed the door shut behind him. Connie got out of bed and walked towards her bathroom not acknowledging Jacob at all.
"Baby I said I'm sorry"
"Jacob you had no right inviting him over, especially after you knew I didn't want him here"
"I know, but what was I supposed to do?! Just leave him out in the streets? Say no to him in front of Grace? Oh yeah, because that would have set a great first impression hmm? And I couldn't exactly ask you seeing as you had one too many drinks and couldn't even compose yourself last night"
Connie just stared at him before she made her way to the bathroom clearly annoyed. Jacob slumped himself back into the duvets, burying his face into the pillow.
After they both got ready they came down and decided to join Sam and Grace for breakfast.
Sam seen them walk into the kitchen and put the two plates down in front of them. "Ah glad you could make it"
"Shutup Sam and just get on with whatever you have to and then I want you out" Connie said whilst she walked up to Grace and gave her hug. "Morning sweetheart, How you feeling?"
"The real question is mum, how are YOU feeling? You had quite a lot to drink last night!"
This made Connie and Jacob giggle, "I'll be fine I promise! Nothing two paracetamols can't fix"
All four of them were sat around the island eating their breakfast in peace till Jacob broke the silence.
"So Grace I was wondering how about I treat you and your mum to a day out ey? Seems like I got a bit of making up to do" He said whilst looking at Connie sympathetically.
"Oh yeah?, what you planning on doing?" Grace looked up at him whilst eating her cereal.
"Anything you want princess, cinemas, bowling, whatever takes your fancy"
"I don't mind going bowling actually, and then maybe somewhere to eat? Pizza hut! You up for it mum?!"
"Hmm?" Connie snapped out of her daydream and looked across at Grace who had a huge grin on her face and then averted her eyes to Jacob who had an apologetic look on his face. "Yeah sure sweetheart, anything for you my darling"
Sam was sat on the far end away from them three looking down at his phone. He then locked his phone and put it in his pocket before attempting to look up at the rest.
"Whilst you lot are out on your little family trip, I guess I'll just sort my things and then look for a hotel hey?"
Grace looked up at her father with a guilty look on her face. As much as she wanted to spend time with her mum and Jacob so she could get to know him a bit better, she didn't like the idea of her dad being on his own.
"Mum, Jacob, can dad come with us please? I don't want him sitting around on his own all day" Sam quickly looked over at Grace and then picked up his plate walking over to the sink.
"I'm not sure darling. I thought it could just be me, you and your mum. You know give us some bonding time, just the three of us?" Jacob said whilst looking at Grace.
"Yeah I suppose so, I just feel bad for him, he's flown all the way over from America and I'm sure he doesn't want to sit on his own all day. Oh well never mind maybe next time" Grace's voice dropped into almost a whispering tone as she looked down on the floor.
Connie looked over at Jacob and knew Jacob didn't want Sam coming but she couldn't have her daughter feeling upset throughout the entire day. Connie stood up with her plate and walked over to place it in the sink whilst she was stood near Sam.
"Okay then why not hey? Sure Sam could come with us" Connie said with a faint smile on her face as Jacob shot her a look. She knew he wasn't happy about this. Grace had a huge smirk on her face as she ran over to hug her mum.
"Thank you so much mum!"
Sam looked over at Connie and then placed his hand on her arm, rubbing it ever so gently, with Jacob staring the whole time. "Thank you so much Connie" He then turned to walk out of the kitchen with a sly smirk across his face.
Jacob looked at Connie who mouthed "sorry" to him. He had no words to say as he knew very well what Sams intentions were, so he moved his plate away from him and left the kitchen to go upstairs and get ready for the day ahead of him, and a long day that was going to be.
