It was a few days later and Kisaiya had spent a lot of time at Fletch's house when both Ange and Fletch were working. Luckily Evie had realised just how selfish she was being and ensured that she looked after Kisaiya and her younger siblings.
Ange was relieved to get away from work early for once and made her way back to Fletch's. Chloe had spoken to Ange recently and explained that her and Cameron were still a couple but taking things slowly. Ange understood and was brought of her daughter. She wanted to get to know Cameron more though.
Ange arrived home and noticed the children were all spread out. Ella and Kisaiya were in the living room watching a film but on opposite couches. Theo and Evie were both in their rooms. Ange noticed that something was playing on Kisaiya's mind and knew that she needed to speak to her. She softly sat down next to the girl and pulled her into her arms.
"What's on your mind?" She whispered and Kisaiya looked at her aunt. How did she know something was the matter?
"Do you want to go somewhere private?" Ange asked and Kisaiya nodded. Ange stood up and guided Kisaiya to her room. She wondered what was going on in the girl's head.
"What's up?" Ange said as they walked into the bedroom and sat on the bed. Kisaiya bit her lip, she didn't know how to say this.
"You see if you have a friend" Kisaiya started and Ange nodded.
"And you heard her talking about things with a group of people and you think that an adult should know should you tell them even if the friend will be mad at you" Kisaiya admitting before slowly raising her gaze to meet Ange's eyes.
"Well it depends what you heard. If you think that an adult could help then yes you should tell an adult" Ange said but it was hard when she only had half a story. "Why do you think an adult needs to know"
"Because you've told me that I should speak to you if this happens and I don't think this friend has ever had an adult speak to them about this" Kisaiya explained nervously.
"Did you suggest to the friend that she speaks to an adult?" Ange asked. Kisaiya shook her head.
"I didn't feel that could because she was speaking to her friends, I was just there" Kisaiya said this confused Ange even more. Ange knew she had to be logic.
"Was it today?" Ange asked and Kisaiya nodded. Ange knew that Kisaiya had only been in one place today.
"So is this friend Evie?" Ange asked softly and Kisaiya nodded. Ange knew that Evie had some friends over today.
"So I know it's Evie. Do you think you can tell me what it was about?" Ange asked and again Kisaiya bit her lip.
"Do you think Fletch should speak to her?" Ange asked and Kisaiya shook her head.
"Not Fletch, who me?" Ange asked and Kisaiya nodded.
"Okay, why me and not Fletch?" Ange asked.
"Because Fletch wouldn't understand" Kisaiya admitted.
"Okay, well I will still have to tell Fletch because it is his daughter but if you could tell me what was discussed then perhaps I could say that I will speak to her" Ange explained and Kisaiya sighed. She knew that she just needed to tell her mum.
"Basically, Evie's friends were all asking her if she had had sex with her boyfriend and she said no but they would soon" Kisaiya admitted in one breath.
"Okay, and how do you know that Evie hasn't spoken to Fletch about it?" Ange asked.
"Because of the things they were saying and her friends didn't know stuff either and they were pressurizing her and…" Kisaiya said getting het up now.
"Okay, well done for telling me. I'm glad you did. I will speak to Fletch and we will decide who will speak to Evie" Ange said and Kisaiya nodded. She felt relieve that she had told Ange but bad at the same time.
They spoke for a bit longer before heading out to the living room again. Ange started making dinner and then Fletch arrived home. Ange called him through to the kitchen and they closed the door.
"So I need to talk to you about something" Ange explained and Fletch nodded moving closer to her to hear.
"I've just had Kisaiya in a bit of a state because she wants me to speak to Evie about something" Ange explained and Fletch nodded telling his girlfriend to carry on.
"What was it?" He said.
"Well Kisaiya said that today when Evie's friends were over they were speaking about her boyfriend and them taking the next step" Ange said and Fletch froze.
"Sex?" He asked and Ange nodded.
"No, I need to go and tell her not to" Fletch said making a move. Ange put her hand out and stopped her.
"Stop, you need to think about this. She is 16, it's legally so instead of you going all guns blazing, why don't you think about it? Instead of shouting and ranting telling her not to do it, perhaps its better to speak to her about it and the complications and ensuring that she knows how to be safe" Ange suggested.
"I can't have that conversation with her" Fletch said.
"Well why don't I? Ange suggested.
"I've had this conversation with many patients, my daughters" Ange said and Fletch nodded. This was time for a women's chat. He couldn't deal with the embarrassment.
"However, it is important that you acknowledge it. So after I speak to her, we will come out to see you and you will say that you support her decisions too" Ange said and Fletch nodded. Ange was scary and he wasn't going to disagree with her.
Ange decided that she should just deal with it now. She walked over to Evie's bedroom and knocked on the door.
"Come in" Evie said and Ange opened the door. Evie looked suspiciously at her.
"Can we have a chat?" Ange asked softly and Evie nodded. She had no idea what this would be able.
"So, well basically it doesn't matter how but I have found out that you were having a bit of a chat with your friends about taking it to the next step with your boyfriend" Ange introduced.
"How do you know? Did Kisaiya tell you? I bet she did, she is such a tell-tale" Evie said panicking.
"Stop, you are not going to start blaming Kisaiya. She did the right thing. She wouldn't even tell me exactly what was said only that I should speak to you about it. And the only reason that she thought that was because I have spoken to her about it and helped her" Ange explained. Evie nodded.
"So do you want to tell me what's going on?" Ange asked and Evie shook her head.
"Listen I'm not going to sit here and say don't have sex until you are 30. I understand it doesn't work like that but I do think that you are too young to understand it fully. You are 16 now so it is legal but I just want you to be safe" Ange said and Evie blushed but nodded.
"Are you really thinking about having sex with your boyfriend?" Ange asked seriously and Evie shrugged again.
"I don't know. Kind of but also just to shut people up about it" Evie explained and Ange nodded.
"And that definitely isn't the right way to go about. Other people will boast about it but I can guarantee that only one or two of them will have actually had sex. It is much better to wait until you know that you love someone and you are both ready to take the next step together" Ange explained and Evie nodded. They spoke for a bit longer before deciding to go into the living room.
"But the last thing I want to say is if you need protection ask me. I can get you condoms and when you are thinking about having sex, we can go to the doctors and get you put on birth control if you want" Ange explained and Evie nodded. She was glad that she had had this conversation with Ange and was feeling a lot better about things now.
They went into the living room and spoke to Fletch. He had calmed down and was relieved that Ange had handled the conversation and not him.
Nervously, Kisaiya entered the room. She wasn't sure how Evie was going to be and was nervous that she would get the blame. She relaxed when Evie smiled softly at her. Kisaiya released the breath she was holding and curled up next to Ange. They all had a relaxing evening.
Hope this is okay :) Hope everyone is staying safe :)
