The next day H wakes up to find Claire isn't there, he hears a noise so he walks over to the
bathroom and can hear Claire being sick.

H: Claire are you ok?

Claire: Yes.

H: Are you sure?

Claire: Yeah.

H: Come on let me in.

Claire: No go away I'm ok, I'm just brushing my teeth.

H: CLAIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Claire: I'll be out in a minute.

H hears Claire being sick again.

H waits for her until she comes out. When she finally comes out H just looks at her.

Claire: What?

H: You weren't brushing your teeth!

Claire: I was.

H: I heard you being sick.

Claire: Well, I'm not well.

H: That's all you had to say and not make up that you was brushing your teeth.

Claire: Leave it H, I just want to go back to bed.

H: I think we need to talk.

Claire: No.

Hannah starts crying. Claire walks into her room and picks her up out of her cot and cuddles her.

Claire: Shuuuuuushhhhh mummy's here now. Are you hungry hunny?

H: Yes mummy I'm hungry.

Claire: Stop messing around H.

H: Gawd.

Claire carries Hannah into the bathroom and locks the door so H cant bother them Claire
finishes feeding her and goes downstairs H is watching TV.

Claire ignores him and goes and gets a drink. She comes back into the living room and sits onthe floor.
H keeps looking at her but doesn't know what to say. Just as he starts to speak Claire runs
into the bathroom H follows her.

H: Right open this door now.

Claire throws up again.

H: Claire come on.

Claire: No.

H: Let me guess your brushing your teeth again?

Claire: Yes so leave me alone.

H: Right when you come out of there we're having a long talk about things.

Claire: No we are not.

H: We are.

Claire: No.

H: Claire tell me what's wrong.

Claire: Nothings wrong, I just don't feel well.

H: Claire come on babe.

Claire: Go away.

Hannah starts crying again so H goes to get her. Claire quickly runs from the bathroom and
into the spare bedroom and locks the door. H not realising goes back and sits outside
the bathroom door trying to talk to Claire.

H: Claire are you ok in there?

H: Come on Claire talk to me.

H: Your scaring me now.

H gets worried and starts to panic

H: Claire open this door this instant.

H is really worried so he starts to bang on the door. Claire is in the bedroom crying.
She gets up and goes to the bathroom

Claire: H STOP BANGING ON THE DOOR.

H: Claire your there.

Claire: Where else would I be?

H: *points to the bathroom* In ther....

H: You bloody scared me.

Hannah holds her arms out to Claire.

Claire: Come on hunny come to mummy.

H: Lets talk.

Claire: No I'm going for a walk with Hannah.

Claire puts Hannah in the buggy and is about to go out when H grabs her arm and pulls her
towards him and starts kissing her. Claire pulls away.

Claire: Get off H, I'm not in the mood.

Claire leaves leaving H looking shocked. Claire walks down the street talking to Hannah when
she hears a horn beep so she looks across the road and sees Faye.

Claire: *shouts* HI Faye.

Faye gets out of the car and walks over to Claire.

Faye: Are you ok? You look pale.

Claire: I'm fine got a stomachache. You?

Faye: Fine just getting some shopping. Where's H?

Claire: At home.

H: Oh hi Faye.

Faye: Hi, well I best go now, bye.

Claire: Faye don't go please.

H: No Faye would you mind going because Claire and me need to talk.

Faye: I have to go anyway. Bye Claire.

Faye kisses her on the cheek and goes Claire walks into the bedroom and starts getting changed.
H pushes her on the bed and starts kissing her.

Claire: H NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Claire: GET OFF ME NOW H.

H ignores Claire so Claire kicks him, H rolls off the bed Claire runs to the bathroom and
starts to cry. H sits down and really regrets what he has done but why is she being like this?
H walks to the bathroom and sits down.

H: Claire I'm sorry about that but I need to know one thing. Why don't you love me any more?

H starts crying and Claire runs out of the bathroom and hugs him.

Claire: I do love you, it's just I'm not feeling well and I want to lie down on the bed and
sleep.

H: Ok see you later.

Claire: I want you to hold me H.

H picks Claire up and she continues to get changed into her pyjama's Claire and H both get in
bed and Claire snuggles up close to him. Claire falls asleep and H starts to think about
what else could be wrong with Claire, he has one idea but doesn't think it's that though.
