Chapter 7
"Roxy slow down your pulling my arm off!" Emily yelled laughing as Roxy turned to face her as they reached the Vic landing.
"Sorry Sweetie I'm just so excited to see you!" she said apologetically as she brushed off Emily's arm jokingly, "My god you've grown up so much, so tell me the truth how many boyfriends you had I wanna know it all!" She said smiling with her tongue sticking out slightly.
"You don't waste much time so you!" Emily laughed at Roxy, "Missed you like mad though" she told her as she hugged Roxy tightly.
"ROX?" is that you a voice yelled from the kitchen. Emily broke from the hug and stared at Roxy, who stared straight back at her.
"Come on. Don't worry she don't bite. That's just Albert" Roxy told her gently trying desperately to lighten the situation, sadly though this was being lost on Emily. Who was staring intently at the kitchen where the voice had come from.
Roxy saw this and dragged her by the arm through. Ronnie was stood with her back to them washing the dishes in the sink. Roxy let out a small cough alerting Ronnie to their presence.
"There you are god thought you'd got lost again, cause that was not pretty the first time." she laughed as she spoke and turned around drying her hands, "I mean how many people…" she stopped suddenly as she saw who was stood before her.
"Wha…Are…No…You can't…"Staring in disbelief she tried to get the word out but they just wouldn't come. Emily looked hurt that she couldn't even speak to her as tears threatened to fall down her cheeks at any minute.
"Look I'd better be gone, I shouldn't have come" Emily said upset as she turned her back on the sisters in an attempt to hide her tears from them. Roxy stared at Ronnie who also had tears strolling down her face to say something, she opened her mouth but no words came out.
Not realising Ronnie's true feeling's Emily picked her cap up off the table where she had place it and put it on her head and walked out of the door. She got to the top of the stairs when she felt a hand on her shoulder, gentle yet forceful at the same time. She spun around to be greeted by Ronnie and a small smile.
In a small voice Ronnie spoke to her for the first, "Come here Emily." she said with her arms open for a hug. Emily just stared at her, she sometimes couldn't figure out the true feeling's behind Ronnie's façade but the eyes said it all. She had finally accepted who she was.
Forcing a small smile though the tears she plunged herself on Ronnie hugging her tight as she responded doing the same. Both stayed like this clinging on to one another as if for dear life, not wanting to let go and find the other suddenly gone. Roxy just stood by the door and smiled at the pair before leaving them to some time together.
Emily noticed this and smiled before pulling back form the hug and smiling at Ronnie, "Love you Mum". At this Ronnie just pulled her into her body tighter, "Love you too Em, and I'll never let you go again. I promise." and this was a promise she was determined to keep.
