Reborn

Chapter 12

Ok I apologise for the gap in timing, brainy cow here decided to put in the fact that it was Christmas in her last chapter and hasn't updated since. I do not feel in a Christmassy mood as it depresses me to think that all the money and chocolate has now gone. That said the story mysteriously jumps three months for various reasons that I will mention at a later date.

3 Months later

The sun shone and the black tarmac pavement absorbed the heat that the sun gave, trees surrounded the school playground and inside its perimeter were various coloured climbing frames. Waiting outside the bottle green gates along with other parents Kerry stood eagerly hoping that her son would appear soon. In one hand she held her bag and in the other a bag of crisps, monster munch; Jacks favourite! Suddenly a line of young children came out of the building behind a teacher, at the front were two young boys. They were dressed in the compulsory uniform of a short-sleeved white shirt and grey shorts although it was not compulsory for the shorts to be covered in grass. A woman with dark brown hair came over to Kerry and introduced herself,

"Hi im Vikki, Toms mum",

"Oh hi, Kerry Jacks mum" Kerry replied,

"Tom keeps mentioning that he'd like Jack to come over one day after school for dinner would that be ok?" she asked,

"Yeah that's cool, Jack keeps talking about Tom as well I keep meaning to tell him that he could come over one day. Things have been slightly hectic lately but he's welcome anytime" Kerry said smiling as she could see Jack run towards her.

A voice shouted at Jack,

"Bye Jack see you on Monday"

"Bye miss Fenn" The little boy replied,

Looking down at her sons trousers Kerry put her hands on her hips,

"What on earth have you been doing young man" she said shocked at the state of him,

"Been playing football with Tom" Jack smiled, continuing he said

"Can Jack come round tonight mum, please"

Ruffling his hair she said,

"No we're going out tonight its Yvonne's birthday"

Sighing Jack looked at Tom and said,

"Another night yeah"

The two women just looked at each other and laughed,

"I'll see you later" Kerry said to Vikki as she held Jacks hand.

The two of them were walking through Sun Hill park hand in hand Jack looked up at his mum and grinned, looking down at her son she realised that she had never been this proud of someone in her whole life. He was her baby and nothing would change that, nothing at all.

They arrived home and Jack ran straight through the house into the garden, picking up a football that had been wedged between branches of a tree he dribbled it into the goal. Kerry looked out of the kitchen window while she poured herself a glass of water from the tap, she was amazed at how quickly things had changed. Last year she was close to ending her life but now she seemed to have so much to look forward to, her son was now at school and nothing could go wrong between her and Smithy. The door opened and a man called her name,

"Hey babe I'm in the kitchen" she replied,

Walking up behind her he locked his arms around her waist and trailed kisses up her neck.

"Your home early" Kerry stated,

"Yeah I sure am, Gina let me knock off early I told her that you weren't feeling to well," He said breaking away from their embrace.

"I'm fine Dale honestly" she stressed,

Smithy raised his eyebrow at her and in return she rested her hands on her hips, bursting in through the door Jack ran up to Smithy and shouted,

"Dad did you see that goal?"

"Oh nah mate show me it again," he said to his son as he followed him out into the garden.

Jack retrieved the leather football from the back of the goal and placed directly in the front of the goal, running up he booted it back in.

Smithy grinned and shouted,

"Well done mate" to Jack then he turned to see Kerry smiling, sitting on the step.

2 Hours later

Smithy walked out of the en suite to find Kerry sitting on the bed while brushing her hair, he noticed something about her,

"Is that bra too small or have your boobs got bigger?" He said staring at her chest,

Cupping her hands over them she replied,

"Trust you to notice that not you look nice Kerry or your hairs looking radiant"

"Radiant! Kerry I'm not Lee Stafford, besides you do look nice I just got side tracked by those gorgeous melons of yours" He said while pushing her down onto the bed.

Wriggling away from him she stood up and got changed,

"Hurry up" she stated while walking through the door,

"Oh and I'd be very nice to me at the moment im on a very short fuse" her tone changed into something more serious and annoyed.

Terribly sorry for the totally pants chapter, im not feeling too good but I promise that the story will hotten up slightly. Lotsa luv...ME!
