Chris's POV:

I stood, in the doorway of the lounge watching Blair sleep peacefully. I smiled at how peacefull it was in the house for once, I considered asking Rachel to come over but that was stopped by Maxine. I walked away from the lounge door, to go upstairs. I was stopped in my tracks as I saw Holly sobbing on the middle step.

"Holly?" I asked in consern, seeing my daughter so upset.

I walked up the stairs, once I reached the step before I sat myself beside her then my put my arm around her shoulder.

"Holly, Sweetie what's wrong?" I asked again, placing a kiss on her forehead.

She didnt answer me for a mintue and then replied with

"I Hate Mum!" She mumbled

"Oh, darling what's happened" I questioned Holly.

"Well" She sniffed, placing a small rat-tail of her long strawberry-blonde hair, to behind her ear.

"Me and Mum had a row, about" Holly stopped "Rachel and You" She added, before looking straight into my eyes.

"Honsestly, Me and Rachel are just close because of Blair" I admited

"But, Mum said" Holly stopped again

"What did your mother say" I found myslef getting fustrated.

"That you are seeing Rachel behind Mum's back" Holly resited, what Maxine had told her.

I bit my lip, then ran my fingers through my hair. Why would Maxine spark up such a silly thing.

"Darling. I'm Not seeing Rachel, I just go to her on occasions because I find Blair to hard to handle sometimes" I assured my eldest daughter, making the not part seem clearer than the rest of the sentance.

This was one topic that was going to be disscused at the dinner table tonight.

I heard my phone go off, to my message ringtone. I pulled it out of my pocket. The message read:

Hey Chris, I need help. Adam has gone Loony over us being so close. How Maxine? Love Rach x

I sighed.

Holly rested her head on my leg, this was the most treaured moment I've had with my daughter since the day she was born.

I'm gunna treauser is FOREVER :)
