It was the following week and Alicia was so relieved that Saskia's moods seemed to have disappeared. The girl was acting just as she previously had which Alicia was so happy about. She decided it was best not to confront her sister about the issues. She knew that Saskia had spoken to Duffy and the girl knew she could speak to Alicia if wanted.

Alicia woke up and didn't even noticed that her younger sister had smuggled into bed with her. She laughed and pulled the girl into her arms. She was glad to have her little sister back. The girl started to stir.

"You need to get ready for school" Alicia said and Saskia nodded. She moved slightly. Her sister had her hand right across her chest and it was really hurting. Alicia noticed the girl move up the way. She assumed it was because the girl was embarrassed that her sister's arm had been on her chest.

"Why did you come through?" Alicia asked softly.

"I don't know. I just fancied it" Saskia said honestly and Alicia nodded.

"That's fine, the bed is always open unless I have a guy in it" Alicia said. Saskia shied away from the conversation again. She swung her legs around and got out of bed before heading through to her room to get ready for school.

Once Saskia was ready, she walked down the stairs were she was joined by her sisters. She sat down and quickly ate her cereal. She was running slightly late but Malia didn't seem too bothered by it.

"Right, you both best be off" Alicia said and Saskia nodded.

"Ah crap, I forgot my PE kit" Malia said as she went running up the stairs. Saskia was waiting at the bottom of the stairs for Malia. The girl came running down and grabbed her jacket from the top of the stairs.

In the action, she accidently hit Saskia across the chest. Saskia screeched in pain.

"Come on, it wasn't hard" Malia complained and Saskia looked at her embarrassed.

"Sash are you okay?" Alicia asked and Saskia shook her head allowing a few tears to fall.

"Right, you go to school and you stay with me" Alicia said encouraging Malia out the door. Once the door was shut Alicia turned to Saskia and just looked at her softly.

"Lesh, don't laugh but my boobs really hurt" Saskia said.

"What do you mean?" Alicia said.

"They feel so stingy. I had to wear a cotton sports bra today it hurts so much" Saskia admitted and Alicia nodded.

"Can I have a look?" Alicia asked and Saskia nodded. She unbuttoned her top.

"Can you take the sports bra off?" Alicia asked and Saskia did so hissing in pain.

"Don't touch it" Saskia begged as Alicia moved closer to her sister.

"It's swollen" Alicia said and Saskia nodded.

"Why is it like that?" Saskia asked and Alicia shrugged.

"I really don't know. It might just be growing pains or it might be a bit more" Alicia said. "When they stop hurting so much will you let me check them again?"

Saskia nodded.

"What worse? Like cancer" Saskia said panicking.

"It's very uncommon in girls your age though" Alicia said.

Saskia quickly put her clothes back on. Alicia gave the girl some neurofen hoping it would help.

"I'll drive you to school" Alicia said and Saskia nodded.

"Actually, I need to ask you something" Alicia said and Saskia sighed slightly. She really hoped it wasn't about her attitude the last week or so.

"So, mum's been in touch" Alicia said trying to gage how Saskia would take this. Saskia didn't respond.

"Well, Mum was wondering if you would see her again so she can explain" Alicia said softly.

"I suppose, it would be okay but only if you come with me too" Saskia said and Alicia nodded.

"Of course I would if it is what you want me to do" Alicia said and Saskia nodded.

"And I could leave if I wanted to at any time" Saskia said and Alicia nodded.

"Of course, listen to me. You are to never feel that you are trapped any place. You would always be able to get out of a place" Alicia said and Saskia nodded. They arrived at the school and Saskia got ready to jump out the car.

"Sash, if your boobs feel any worse let me know and I'll come and pick you up" Alicia said and Saskia nodded. She knew that she just needed to get on with school as there wasn't really anything they could do.

Luckily the school day went quickly and both Malia and Saskia were so relieved that it was the end of the day.

"Are you coming to cheer?" Malia asked and Saskia nodded.

"What was all that about this morning?" Malia asked and Saskia shrugged.

"My boobs just really hurt" Saskia said and Malia nodded.

"That's weird, did you speak to Alicia?" Malia asked and Saskia nodded.

"Yeah, she said they were swollen. She's going to have another check once they don't hurt so much" Saskia explained.

"Do they hurt just now?" Malia asked and Saskia shrugged.

"Just a bit but not as bad as this morning" Saskia explained and Malia nodded.

"I'll try to be as careful as I can" Malia said and Saskia nodded. She'd appreciate that.

They quickly got changed for cheerleading. Saskia was relieved that the practice went quickly and she was able to go home again. She just wanted to curl on the sofa.

Alicia picked the girls up and drove them home.

"Sash, we are going to see Mum on Friday" Alicia said looking in the mirror at the girl. Saskia nodded.

"Why the hell are you going to see her after the way she treated you" Malia asked confused. She hadn't even seen her mum since the incident.

"She is still our mum" Alicia said and Malia shrugged.

"Well I don't want her to be" Malia said.

"Mal, that isn't a nice thing to say" Alicia said.

"I don't care, I wish you were my mum instead" Malia mumbled quietly. She hadn't expected Alicia to hear her.

"Well I love you lots and I will always look after you no matter what" Alicia said not knowing how to respond it this. Malia nodded slightly but stayed quiet.

They arrived back at the house and they all disappeared to different areas of the house.

Alicia started making dinner before deciding to go and check on Saskia.

"Sash, how's your chest?" Alicia asked softly.

"It's fine now" Saskia said.

"Can I have a feel?" Alicia asked and Saskia nodded. She quickly took off her shirt and bra. Alicia quickly checked the girl out.

"I can't feel anything. Let me know if it hurts again" Alicia said and Saskia nodded.

"Get dressed and then come down for dinner" Alicia said and Saskia nodded.

They headed down the stairs and ate dinner before snuggling up on the sofa. Alicia loved doing this with her sisters. It was her favourite thing to do on her day off.

Sorry, it's a bit of a filler chapter. Sadly the next few chapters will probably be fillers and then I'll move onto the rape storyline. I'm not sure what to do with Saskia and Malia while Alicia acts like she is in the show. Any ideas?
