Chapter 14:
They both stand waiting to be let in. "Cara, they do know I'm coming right? They do know I'm your boyfriend don't they?" he asks rather nervously.
Cara nods then bites her lip "they don't know about the 9 year ages gap though" she mumbles.
"Well I'm going to get a few looks aren't I?" he mutters as Cara's mum finally opens the door.
"Cara my baby girl" her mum says as she throws her arms around Cara, her mum was a the perfect mirror image of Cara but with Ginger hair, "so this must be... Raf?" Her mum questions.
"Yes I am Mrs. Martinez" Raf replies.
"Oh please call me Andrea... Cara has been telling me lots about you, she made you sound famous" she smiles and Cara blushes.
Cara takes Raf's hand as they walk into the house together. He seems more relaxed now about the whole situation.
Cara and Raf take off their coats and shoes and head through to where Cara's family are.
"Big family" Raf mutters to her and she gives a nod and smiles to him. Raf can see another two woman sitting on the sofa which looked to be Cara's two sisters as they all looked the spitting image of each other.
Cara smiles at Raf and says "this is my boyfriend Raf, and these are my sisters Nadine she's the oldest and Alicia who's the youngest... And this is..." Cara is cut off by an older man standing before them.
"I'm Cara's dad, Tim" he says as he shakes her hand.
"and yes, that's my dad" she says and blushes slightly looking at the two.
Raf shakes Her dads hand and Cara pulls Raf over to the sofa, as there is only one chair available Raf pulls Cara onto his lap and rests his hands around her waist.
Cara talks to Nadine as she was always more closer to her more so than Alicia, she always has been growing up.
Cara smiles at her oldest sister Nadine, She hadn't seen her in over two years and now Cara couldn't get over that Nadine has had her first child a little boy called Teddy.
"How is being a mother?" Cara smiles at her as Nadine is feeding Teddy.
"Scary, but he's worth all the hard work, it's really weird because I can remember holding you when you were two weeks old" Nadine says and Cara blushes
"He looks adorable" Cara smiles as this is the first time she has seen her nephew.
"Do you want to hold him... Well you are his auntie" Nadine requests and Cara nods immediately.
Nadine passes him to Cara once he has finished his feed. Cara holds him and his big blue eyes look up at her.
Cara smiles at him and says "Hello you, I'm your auntie Cara" She smiles and Raf who still has Cara on his lap watched her with great interest as he has never seen the maternal side of Cara.
"Isn't he really cute Raf?" Cara smiles looking at Raf. Raf nods as the baby boy wraps his fingers around Cara's pinky finger.
Raf smiles as kisses her cheek, "he's adorable Nad... You should be so proud" Cara smiles as she gently rocks Teddy.
Nadine smiles at her, "does he sleep well for you both?" Cara asks.
Nadine smiles and looks at her husband (Cara's brother-in-law James) they both laugh and Nadine replies "He does let us sleep but not all the time."
Cara giggles and looks down at Teddy and smiles just as her younger sister buts in "you two planning on having children?" the seventeen year old questions and Cara goes bright red.
She looks at Raf and Raf smiles at her. "Well we haven't really talked about it" Cara blushes even more.
"I reckon you'd be a great mum Caz, what do you think Raf?" Nadine asks, which puts Raf on the spot.
Raf bites his lip as he has seen the side of Cara who constantly moans about crying children on AAU who are with their parents, "erm...I" he hesitates and Cara looks at him, "I think she will be an amazing, caring and wonderful mother when the time is right" he smiles as he looks at her.
"Aw isn't that sweet!" Nadine says and looks at Raf who can feel himself going bright red.
Alicia looks up from her phone and smirks to herself "you do realize you one in a very long line of boyfriends Cara's had? Which have always ended with disaster, tell me Cara why did all these lads dump you?" Alicia questions with a cunning look on her face.
Cara blushes and looks down, she doesn't know what to say. Nadine gives Alicia a dig. "Caz ignore her, she's only trying to wind you up!" Nadine explains and Raf nods as he sees Cara is embarrassed.
Nadine takes Teddy back off Cara and puts him to bed upstairs for a while, Alicia glares at Cara and looks Raf up and down.
"So what age is this one? I mean you always go for the younger men or older ones" Alicia sniggers.
"Alicia that's enough!" Nadine says as she comes back to them.
Cara doesn't say anything but before anything else can be said Cara's mum calls them to the table.
Alicia glares at Cara. Cara gets up off Raf's knee and they both follow Nadine and James into the dining room. "Just ignore her Caz she's only trying to get at you, I mean Raf seems like a lovely guy!" she smiles at them both.
"I know Nad's she always finds a way to embarrass me or annoy me" Cara explains.
Cara sits directly opposite Alicia who keeps shooting both her and Raf dirty looks which made them both feel slightly uncomfortable.
Cara glares back which Raf finds amusing because he never had Cara down at the childish type, "Cara if you've got a problem with me please share" Alicia says and she kicks Cara from under the table.
"Yes I do actually Alicia, you're the problem" Cara mutters back and Alicia kicks the table again.
"Girls that's enough now!" Andrea says in a raised tone.
"Mum she started it!" Cara argues back. Raf finds it all very amusing and can't help but laugh.
He sniggers then apologizes. Cara sits his her head resting in her one hand and she places with her food with her fork, "still fussy Cara?" Tim says and Cara looks up at him, "is she fussy with you Raf?" Tim questions Raf.
"Erm... Not really" Raf replies and Alicia mutters something.
Cara happens to hear what she mutters and is not best impressed, "Care to share that with the rest of us Alicia?" Cara says in a raised tone.
"Caz stop it's not worth it, it's just her childish behavior kicking in" Nadine mutters to Cara.
"I know Nad's, Alicia your seventeen not eight anymore grow up!" Cara says as she looks at both her sisters.
Andrea sighs and apologizes to Raf about her three daughters behavior.
"Alicia for heavens' sake can't you leave Cara alone for once?" Andrea says. They all sit quietly at the table after her mum had said that. Nothing is said for a good few minutes but really it felt forever.
Raf holds Cara's hand under the table, he can feel from Cara's grip she is really annoyed.
Once they have finished eating Cara goes and stands outside for a bit as she needs to get some air as she's having fantom pains in her stomach and leg from her stab wounds.
Raf heads outside to see if Cara is okay. She seemed pretty tense when they were eating so he went to check if she was alright.
"Hey babe you okay?" Raf questions as he puts his hands around her waist.
She lets out a sigh. "I'm sorry, you probably think I'm such a child!" she mumbles.
"No you and your sister are quite a double act, you made me laugh even though your mum didn't like it" he smiles as he kisses her cheek.
She smiles at him, "she never leaves me alone we've always been like this" she explains and Raf listens.
"I'm really close with Nad's but not Alicia she just knows how to irritate me all the time!" she says.
"Little sisters always do it's the same with brothers" Raf laughs as he turns Cara to look at him.
He places a kiss on her lips, "Now come on they'll all be wondering where we have got to!" he laughs.
She takes his hand and they head inside, Cara goes upstairs for a few minutes as she wants to see her old room, Raf is drawn into a conversation with Cara's dad about general surgery.
Cara appears back down and Nadine and Alicia are sitting downstairs listening to Raf and theirs dads conversation. Cara comes and sits on Raf's knee.
"So tell us how did you two come together?" Andrea questions as she looks at Cara who is cuddles up to Raf.
Cara looks at Raf, "Well..erm, Raf sort of saved my life" she begins.
"That's so sweet" Nadine smiles but she doesn't know the full story yet.
"How?" Andrea questions and Cara doesn't know what to say, she has all these imagines of what happened flashing through her head and her face shows signs of shock so Raf speaks for her.
"In what way your weren't raped were you darling?" Andrea panics and everyone apart from Alicia look concerned.
"No mum I wasn't" she says reassuring them all.
"She was badly beaten" Raf goes on to say.
Raf holds Cara around the waist, "I was the one who found her lying on the floor, I saved her from bleeding to death" Raf says and everyone looks at him in shock.
"Bleeding to death?" Andrea says in shock.
"Yes, she was stabbed twice on her stomach, once on her thigh and again on her back" Raf explains and Cara feels utterly sick at the thought of it again.
"Raf no more please" Cara says as she tries to put on a brave face.
He smiles and kisses her cheek "okay princess no more" he says as he hugs her.
"Oh Caz, well thank god for Raf!" Nadine says and goes to give Cara a hug.
Her family stop talking about what had happened to Cara because they can all see that Cara doesn't like talking about it.
Later on Cara's parents have gone to the shop to get something leaving Nadine who is seeing to Teddy, Alicia who is planning her next thing to say to Cara to annoy her, and then there's Raf and Cara who are sitting on the sofa together. Raf is asleep and Cara is just staring at him lovingly.
"So then Cara" Alicia begins and Cara glares at her.
"What do you want?" Cara snaps at her as she has had enough of her little sister for one day.
"How old is Raf then?" she asks.
"Alicia can you just leave me alone for once in your life?" Cara snaps.
"Come on Caz you can tell me, I will leave you alone if you tell me" she smirks.
Cara rolls her eyes "Shut up Alicia" she grits her teeth and messes with her fingers
"No I won't, you get the pity when Raf told your story for you. Oh Raf's little princess" Alicia says as she is greatly jealous of Cara and always has been.
"Stop it, you have no right to bring what happened to me into this!" Cara snaps.
"You know what Cara I actually wished he had never had found you then maybe mum and dad would of paid a bit more attention to me, ever since I was little it's always been oh Cara's our perfect little girl, oh Cara got straight A's in all her exams, oh Cara passed her nursing exam, oh Cara is becoming a nurse... It's always Cara, Cara, Cara... I wish you would just drop dead!" Alicia says and Cara gets up gently off Raf and stands a few feet In front of Alicia.
"How dare you!" Cara says in a raised tone. "Seriously, how could you? You selfish wee brat!" Cara says.
Alicia laughs in her face and walks forwards towards her "you've always been a bitch yourself Cara!" Alicia laughs and Cara grits her teeth, "your not as sweet and innocent as Mum and Dad make out... Are you Cara? Sleeping around, sleeping with other people's boyfriends... Your more like a slut or a slag" Alicia says and Cara bites her lip in anger
"How dare you Alicia, you know fine rightly that was done to my ... Mum and Dad told you that now shut up you can never be happy for me! You don't even act like my sister, to be honest I don't even know who you are anymore!" Cara shouts with anger.
Alicia gives her an evil grin and replies "You've never been my sister Cara you've always been a bitch to me" Alicia begins and Cara grits her teeth and digs her nails into the palms of her hands.
"you can't say anything Alicia mum and dad say your just as worse as me" Cara replies and Alicia looks stunned at her.
Alicia chucks her phone down and says "right that's it !" And with that Alicia throws herself at Cara.
"Get of me!" Cara screams as Alicia kicks her. But Cara is just as bad and retaliates back in self defense.
Cara grabs Alicia's hair and pulls it but Alicia just hits back even harder, "get your hands off me you stupid bitch!" Alicia screams.
"Not unless you let go of me!" Cara says as she loses Alicia's hair and throws a punch at her.
"Never!" Alicia screams as she kicks Cara.
"Fine!" Cara says as Alicia knocks Cara off her balance and to the floor.
Raf starts to awaken to all the noise. "Get of me now!" Cara screams as Alicia looks down at Cara.
"You deserve to be beaten to death Cara Martinez!" Alicia shots.
Just then Nadine, James and Teddy appear downstairs to all the commotion.
"Oh my god James, Raf do something!" Nadine shouts as she has Teddy in her arms.
Raf springs up off the sofa and James jumps into action, James lifts Alicia off Cara and holds her back and Raf does the same to Cara.
"I'm not finished with her yet!" Cara shouts as she tries to push past Raf but Raf holds her back by the waist.
"Oh that's it get your fake boyfriend to protect you" Alicia shouts.
"At least I've got one who loves me unlike yourself!" Cara shouts and tries to break free from Raf.
"Bet he doesn't love you anymore after what he has saw tonight!" Alicia smirks.
Both Alicia and Cara calm down so both men relax a bit with them, both unaware that this is how they are going to next attack each other when Raf and James are off guard.
"Come here you wee bitch I'm not finished with you" Alicia shouts as she pushes past James and pushes Cara to the sofa and strangles her.
"Alicia enough!" James says and he pulls her off Cara.
"Alicia go to your room and give us all peace!" Nadine says.
"Caz are you alright?" Raf asks shocked.
Cara leans forwards and puts her hands on her neck and coughs a little, Raf sits next to her and can tell she's struggling to breathe "can someone get her some water" Raf says as he rubs her back.
James takes Teddy off Nadine while she goes to get Cara a glass of water and makes sure Alicia goes to her room. "Caz are you alright?" Nadine asks as she takes a few sips of the water.
Cara nods and looks at Raf "Cara your nose is bleeding" he says
She puts her hand to her nose while Nadine gets her some tissues. "Thanks Nad's" Cara mumbles.
Cara can't believe what she had done, it was her first fight in years she felt a lot better but she also felt guilty.
"I think I should be getting Cara home" Raf announces.
Both Cara's parents arrive back. "It was nice meeting you all" Raf smiles to Nadine and James and also to Cara's Mum and Dad.
Cara says her goodbyes and leaves with Raf. In the car journey home Cara sits very quietly next to Raf who every so often turns and looks at her and places his hand on her knee and runs it up and down her thigh.
Once nearly home Cara chirps up, "I'm so sorry about today" she says. She feels herself tear up a little but tries not to cry in front of Raf. "Alicia's not right sure she isn't? You still love me after today?" Cara asks scared incase Raf doesn't.
"Of course I do silly, I love you no matter what" Raf says as they come o a red light he quickly leans over and kisses her cheek.
Cara lets out a sigh of relief. "It was rather funny at the dinner table though" he laughs. "But I think she took it way too far after that! Is she always like that?" Raf asks.
Cara nods shamefully "ever since she could speak she has it in for me" Cara mumbles.
