"Hello" Michelle spoke into the intercom.
"It's Lloyd, taxi for Carla"
"2 secs Lloyd"
"You ready car?"
"Guess I have to be. Peters worried I have to go home"
"You got everything? Please ring me if you need anything. Even if it is just a cry on my shoulder"
"Thanks babe I will. Ill text you in the morning" Carla said as she got her coat on and gave Michelle a hug and a kiss. "Love you chell"
"So we heading home Carla?" Lloyd asked sensing she was upset due her tear stained eyes and the longing hug her am Michelle had shared as she got in the cab.
"Yea please Lloyd. I don't have Amy cash on me so you will have to give me a minute to run up to the flat"
"Aye don't worry about it. You can drop in to me Monday"
Carla began crying again. This time because Lloyd was being so nice to her. She felt so stupid. Lloyd caught her on his rear view mirror and just kept driving he didn't want to interfere.
Carla turned the key in the door. The room was empty. Lights off. It was midnight. She felt awful having Been out all night while Peter was home with Simon obviously worried judging by his text messages and missed calls.
She didn't want to shout out for Peter incase she woke Simon. She made her way towards the bedroom as she opened the door she noticed the tv was on with of Simons DVDs playing. She peered onto the bed and her heart melted. Peter lying down fully clothed and Simon cuddled up into him wrapped in the duvet. She knocked the DVD off and decided not to disturb them as she made her way out to tidy up the sitting room before eventually making her way to Simons bed for the night.
1.18 am Carla checked her phone she was exhausted. She couldn't sleep. She tossed and turned some more into a different position.
3.12 am still not asleep and no sign of it happening any time soon.
She walked out to the empty and silent sitting room before glancing over at her bedroom door. It was now or never.
"Peter. Peter. Baby. It's carla. Peter. Wake up"
Peter stirred in his sleep and he woke to notice Carla standing over him. He looked over at Simon as he stirred he moved him slightly to get up out of the bed. He joined Carla in the sitting room.
"Carla it's 3 in the morning are you only home?" He sounded angry. She just stared at the floor. "Are you ok" this time he sounded more sympathetic as he joined Carla on the sofa and put his arm around her shoulder.
"We need to talk Peter"
