A Hearts flutter

Chapter 1 : Returning home

It had been such a long time since she'd been here. The view and surroundings were just the way she had left them, and the smell of the air, unforgettable.

She hadn't decided to come here on choice, but was rather requested to come. Leaving the hustle bustle of the city and her newfound boyfriend behind, well it wasn't as hard as she had made it out to be on the telephone. And now that she was here, in all honesty, she didn't miss it or miss him one bit. But the circumstances on why she was here, was anything but good, Rhys had left Beth for Shelley. Left Beth, her Mother. The sweetest kindest woman, Kit thought, that was on the planet.

Kit yawned tiredly as she made her way from the beach to the caravan park. If she was her old self her in her old state of mind anger would be boiling to the surface right at this very moment. But she had changed, well maybe so not so much , she had made sure she had cooled down before she had arrived, the last thing her mother needed was her arriving in a terrible temper. And that's what Noah had also said to her on the phone.

Noah, Kit sighed heavily. The last thing she needed was to start thinking about him. She had come to the conclusion long ago , that it did her no good to think of him, she had even as gone as far to say it was bad for her health. Scott had laughed. She wasn't offended that her brother didn't understand, she remembered thinking that afternoon, what was the use of fighting for something or more less someone that you couldn't win. Kit shook her head grinning at the idea; it wasn't as if he was a piece of meat to be won at a carnival.

It wasn't a long walk from the beach to the caravan park and when Kit finally did look up , she was there , as well as a brown haired boy and blonde hair girl grinning in the distance "Kit", they stopped what they were doing and ran towards her , the girl taking her bag from her and the boy hugging her.

Kit laughed "Long time no see Weirdo"

Robbie Hunter stood back and grinned, all the while pushing up his glasses "Same to you"

Tash stood behind him, grinning shyly.

"Since when are you shy Tash?"

"Well" the girl stuttered "There's something you need to know, right Rob?"

The boy smiled sheepishly "Right" running his fingers through his hair "Tash and I are kinda together" he laughed nervously

"I see" Kit responded seriously, trying not to laugh, "Well that is a surprise"

"We would have told you Kit, But I was worried ", trailed of Tasha, "You don't mind do you"?

"Mind!" she exclaimed

Robbie and Tasha exchanged nervous looks

Kit finally burst out laughing "Of course I don't mind, Silly's" She shook her head "As if I would, you should have told me"

She pushed passed them "Come on lets go see everyone"

The three of them entered the quiet house; this definitely wasn't how it was.

"Where is everyone"?

"The twins and Max are at Colleens"

"Oh, well that's why it's so quiet then"

"Mum and Noah are upstairs"

Kit spun her head around

"Why is he here"?

"His been helping Mum, he comes and checks up on her every now and then. I mean Mum was handling it well and all at first, and then, well I guess she just broke." Answered Rob, his voice slightly cracking. "She's seems fine, she pretend she is, but she's not, I mean why else would she have Noah come here"

Tash placed a supportive hand on his shoulder.

Kit's heart beat nervously hard against her chest. She forced herself to calm down, taking quiet quick deep breaths

"I'll go up I guess and say hi" she said finally

Robbie nodded, "She'll be glad to see you Kit"

She shoved her hands in her pockets and forced herself to smile "Righteo I'll see you two later"
