"Hi mum I'm so sorry about this" he said apologetically, "it's ok" she smiled "I'm your mum it's my job to rescue you ever so often" she smirked. "Thank you I don't know what's wrong with me, would you mind going in and paying my bill I had a coffee whilst I waited I hope that's ok. I can't belive I left my wallet at home the one time I needed it" he grimaced. "I think we can forgive you this once, but let's be quick I want to get home" she smiled "to kate" his whispered behind his mothers back as she strolled up the path to the entrance. She spun her head round her golden locks swirling in the sun light, he couldn't remember ever seeing her like this... He thought for the word Alive. Yes she was alive and living no longer just surviving the day to day, she never would have minded picking him up but never quite this cheerfully he thought smirking.

He followed her to the bar where she paid the bill and swiftly turned to leave, as she felt a delicate hand upon the nape of her neck making her jump. Her eyes turned and immediately lightened at the sight before her. She took her in her slender legs in a beautiful dark blue dress with a premiscious neckline, the necklace caroline had bought her on holiday and a pair of modest heels. Her eyes finally making steady contact with her eyes, the sparkle emmited "what are you doing here?" She asked confused turning to William "am I being set up, I don't understand".

Caroline turned back to kate and felt her draw her closer "happy birthday beautiful, now set up isn't what we were going for, more a suprise She smirked at caroline curious frown.

Kate let her lips delicately cover her own and silence her girlfriends brain momentarily,"sorry was that ok?" Kate asked aware caroline was becoming more confident about them, but she knew how it was to first be public as they say.

"umm yes lovely" Caroline smiled catching a glance of her son in her pheiperhal vision "sorry William, I forgot you were there" she smiled shly. "No need to apologise you are the birthday girl after all. "Girl" she laughed "you charmer" she smirked "so what are we doing here?. "Dinner" kate smiled "well that's lovely but why couldn't I go home first and change" she looked herself up and down, as if that said it all. "Well I think you look gorgeous but..." Kate pulled a bag from beside the sofa " you can change if you want" she smiled. Caroline felt herself relax it was if everything was already organised "oh shit what about Lawerence" Caroline bumbled. Kate laughed "relax he's being dropped here in oh" she looked at her watch "15 minutes, so time for you to dress". Caroline gave a small kiss to kate and headed towards the ladies, "Caroline where are you.. going" Kate asked feigning confusion, Caroline looked at her seriously "to get changed" she held the bag up to demonstrate.

Kates smile could not hide her amusement "do you think I'd let you change in a toilet on your birthday, oh no.. We have a room" kate smirked dangling the key. "You got a room for me to get changed in?" She asked amused "well to get changed yes but we can stay the night if you would like" Her eyebrows highs "id rather use it for undressing" she whispered as she walked past her towards the stairs. Watching the flush appear upon Carolines face, as she flattened down her shirt and skirt in an attempt to appear more in control.

"Right this way" Kate called as Caroline followed as they reached the room, "you didn't have to go to all this trouble you know kate, although it's so lovely I've never really celebrated birthdays". She spoke as her shirt flew across the bedroom her skirt following suit, her semi naked frame bending over to rifle through the bag kate had provided.

Caroline felt Kate's eyes upon her "that's rather distracting you know" she joked hearing kate chuckle, Caroline wiggled her bum whilst digging through her clothes which got the desired effect. Bare hands sculpting over her body, Kates finger tips trailling over every inch, her minds focus slipping on anything on ther than that very moment.

Kates hands dipping round the front of her abdomen, and seductively slipping into her panties, she heard carolines shap intake of breathe. She stilled her hand "we haven't got time now, tonight I'm all yours" kate smirked turning Caroline to face her. "That so cruel" Caroline moaned "well maybe but you won't be complaining later" kate suggested she opened her bag and flashed the purple laced strap on in Carolines direction, alongside the black little number she would be wearing. Watching Carolines jaw literally drop "I know you don't always like suprises, I thought you'd enjoy it more If you knew exactly what I have planned for later" kate smirked.

Kate watched Carolines face a mixture of confusion, approval and sheer bloody arousal, Caroline trying to change the subject carried on searching through the bag. She was desperately trying to avoid the pool of wetness in her underwear which now was becoming more apparent. God she'd have enjoyed just being locked in this room for 24 hours straight with Kate, she starve for all she cared right this second. "Kate" her voice high pitched over compensating "there is nothing in her for me to wear tonight for dinner" Caroline stated flately. "Oh sorry Caroline, that's tomorrows bag" kate strutted over to the bathroom door and disappeared and then reappeared. In her hand she held a beautiful ivory dress with a low cut front which trailed to the floor, Caroline again lost for words "it's beautiful perfect, I love it". kate lowered it to the floor as Caroline stepped into it and kate gently did the zip up from behind, standing back "stunning" she whispered.

Caroline felt the heat return to her cheeks, as kate dissappeared and returned with some killer heels to match with delicate pearls embedded "now they are stunning" Caroline drooled.

"Well I thought you'd like them and well I knew you would look like sheer sex wearing them". Caroline slipped them on running a brush through her hair and reapplying her makeup checking her watch, "lawerence will be hear any second, shall we go down before I abandon my sons and just keep you prisoner up her" Caroline smirked.

Kate leant in close taking her lips more fiercely, sucking the air from the room as they merged themselves in one another mouths fully connected, tongues swirling until finally they drew apart. "Kate I love you" Caroline said breathlessly as she wiped a tear from her cheek "I love you too Caroline, don't cry... Your spoil your makeup" Kate smiled. "Ha ha thanks kate, ruin the moment" she smirked " it's just nobody has ever done anything so thoughtful" "it's just the beginning" kate smiled. Kate took her hand and lead the way down the stairs, they spoke as they made their way to the bar.

"Well it wasn't all my doing" kate said squeezing her arm, "did the boys help you?" Caroline asked "yes but actually this wasn't all my idea ...it was your mums too. Dinner and well everything so far was me because I wanted you to feel so special, to show you how much I love and adore you. But this... Next suprise is your mum, She wants to show you how much she loves you. That she's sorry for being a prize pillock as lawerence puts it. She wants you to know she is sorry and that she supports you, and me and wants us to be happy. Kate paused before opening the doors, as ballons and streamers flew across the room, a sea of face smiling at her singing happy birthday to her.

Celia stepped out of the dim light and stood in front of her daughter "please forgive me. I was so wrong I get it, I really do and all I want is for you to be happy. I can see kate does that, so please forgive a silly old cow for being such a ..." "bitch" Caroline offered.

Celia paused " well for want of a better word yes" celia smiled, "oh mum do you mean it?", Celia stepped forward "I do I really do .. I've never been so miserable since we haven't spoken. You are such a huge part of my life Caroline, can we please move forward.

I love you and I think kate is so good for you! she's lovley , The boys say your so different so happy, and I see it, I've spent lots of time with kate organizing this and she's wonderful, She truly loves you caroline. You deserve to be happy I won't stand in the way", Celia winked at Kate and smiled at her daughter " can we all move forward?" celia asked. " Oh Mum that's all I ever wanted" Caroline threw her arms around her mum hearing cheers from the boys and Gillian in the background.

They drew apart "right well who needs a drink, I do" Caroline laughed as she moved forward to greet Gillian and Beverely, and grill them on how they hadn't let slip All these secrets. Her hand firmly around Kate's waist squeezing gently as she smiled and chatted to them all, William handing her a glass of champagne.

"So Beverly I'll be docking your pay ducking off work early on a Friday, before the headmistress" she smirked at a bashful Beverely.

"Well call it payback for all the rearranging meetings Ive had to do since Kate started at school, and you like to be free on her free periods" she smirked.

Caroline could not help laugh "oh so you... Worked that one out then", she questioned, Beverly "doesn't take a genius, I think it's rather cute" Beverely said Grinning. Watching Carolines mortified face turn to a laughing kate, who was now acting out the whipped sign, causing a round of cackles coming from all in the vicinity. Who was she kidding she was and she was loving it, she laughed playfully batting Kate's arm "it's a secret" she whispered to a smiling kate.
