I am sorry for the long wait almost three weeks, but I've had a lot of work on.
Part 2.
Tanya stepped into the front room disturbing Penny and Jack. Jack looked up at his sister-in-law, as a sister, nothing more nothing less. With a smile to one another Tanya spoke up. "I'm going over to do Ronnie's hair now. Penny would you like to come."
Penny looked uneasy changing her glance from Tanya to her dad who let out a small smile. "I think she'll have enough going on."
"Don't be silly Penny", Jack said calmly. "She'll love to see you. Anyways you can talk girly stuff instead of being stuck her with all the men."
"Come Penny. You can see your little brother. He's grown so much.", Tanya added finally persuading Penny round.
"Ok ... Ok ... ", Penny said as Tanya grabbed hold of the back of Penny's chair.
"See ya later", Jack said as the two girls left the room, leaving him on his own, allowing the knots in his stomach start to unfold as he looked up at the clock. "I'm getting married in 4 hours."
Tanya stood with a nervous Penny in front of her as she banged on the flat door. A few seconds later the door opened slowly.
"Hey Tanya", Roxy said happily holding Amy's shoes in her hand.
"How's the bride to be", Tanya asked.
"Panicking", Roxy replied with a short laugh suddenly her eyes were drawn to Penny. "I never knew you would be joining us today."
"I couldn't miss dads wedding", Penny replied.
"Rox! Let them in. We have no time to waste.", Ronnie shouted in the background.
"You heard the woman", Roxy said ushering Tanya and Penny inside.
The three women travelled through the flat to the living room where Ronnie was sat in her black silk dressing gown, holding Charlie. Ronnie's attention went from Charlie to Penny as they disturbed her. "Penny", Ronnie said shocked. "When? How? It's nice to see you." Ronnie stood up still and walked over to Penny, greeting her with a hug, as Charlie remained sandwiched in-between the two.
"Mama .... who tha", Charlie said pointing to Penny as Ronnie left the embrace.
Ronnie smiled. "This is your older sister. Penny."
"Penny", Charlie said looking at her. "Penny"
"Hi Charlie", Penny said holding out a hand.
"Do you want to give Penny a cuddle?", Ronnie said softly but Charlie shook his head, snuggling further into Ronnie. "He's just a little shy that's all."
"I understand", Penny said trying not to show her disappointment.
"Give him 10 minutes and he be your best friend Penny", Tanya said reassuringly.
"Mummy ... Mummy ...", Amy shouted running from the bedroom gathering Penny's attention. "There's a monster under the bed. Its tail is sticking out."
Roxy sighed, taking Amy hands and led her into the bedroom.
"Think we should get started with the hair", Tanya said reminding Ronnie.
"Oh Yeah. I'm totally lost", Ronnie said with a slight laugh putting Charlie on the floor. "You be a good boy while mummy gets her hair done. Bradley should be coming to get you soon." Ronnie kissed the top of Charlie head before taking a seat allowing Tanya to get started.
Penny smiled at Charlie who was starring at her with his beady blue eyes. "Who's that little girl? In the room with Roxy.", asked Penny.
"That would be my niece ... Amy. Your cousin.", Ronnie said as a wave of guilt struck over her.
"She's beautiful", Penny said.
"Beautaful", Charlie repeated making everyone in the room giggle.
A few minutes later Roxy came back out the room with a fully dressed Amy. She was wearing the most beautiful, elegant, frilly pale yellow dress. "Don't you look gorgeous", Tanya said as Amy took up everyone's attention.
"She's a nightmare to get dressed ... Amy sit down next to Charlie.", Roxy shouted afraid Amy was going to get chocolate all over her dress. "And give me that chocolate."
"As anyone heard from Danielle yet", Ronnie asked changing the conversation.
"I'm here", Danielle said as she came barging through the door, panting for air.
"Where have you been?", Ronnie asked.
"We were getting some last minute guests.", Bradley said as he emerged round the corner.
"And who are these guests", Roxy said while trying to snatch the chocolate off Amy.
"You have to wait and see", Danielle said happily.
"Penny!", Bradley exclaimed while Danielle mouthed 'Jacks daughter' to Ronnie, in which Ronnie replied with nodding her head.
"It's nice to finally meet you Penny", Danielle said hugging Penny, "Just to think in just over 3 hours we will be sisters."
Penny didn't reply but instead went along with it silently.
"Danielle ... dress now.", Ronnie demanded making Danielle run off into the bedroom. "And Bradley be a darling and take Charlie over to Jack with you."
"I'll do it now", Bradley replied. "Come on little man, let's go see daddy." Charlie shot up at the word 'daddy' and ran over to Bradley.
"Don't forget that bag on the side it has all his clothes in. Tell Jack I didn't have time to get him ready", Ronnie said as Bradley took Charlie's hand. "Does mammy not get a goodbye kiss."
Charlie stumbled across to Ronnie as she picked him up, kissing him smack bang on the lips. "Love you baby."
"Love yo mummy", Charlie replied.
"Now go see dada.", Ronnie said patting Charlie on the head as she put him down.
"See you later", Bradley said as he and Charlie disappeared out off the flat leaving the girls to it.
So what exactly did Amy think was the monster", Ronnie asked.
"Your fluffy black handcuffs", Roxy said unimpressed as Ronnie and Tanya giggled.
I'm going to stop 'part 2' there. Sorry if this part seems a bit boring but I assure you that Jack and Ronnie will be in the same scene on the next update. There are still another 4 parts to come. And thanks for all the lovely comments, they mean a lot.
