A/N: Well, I hope that those who read it did enjoy chapter 1. I know I didn't include as many of the real characters but that's just the way I wrote it. I forgot to mention that Eli Dingle is in this story (he's already in the village so I'm not going to write about his return). Debbie found out about Cameron and Chas' affair after Carl sent her the photo after Chas attacked him when he almost raped her. Carl had an operation from his attack and recovered. Thomas and Anya came to visit him in the hospital and Thomas ended up wanting to stay. Any questions about the fanfiction feel free to ask and I will answer in the next A/N. Anyways, on wards…

Chapter 2: Back For Good

The next morning, Sian found herself waking up surprisingly earlier than usual, probably because of the terrible night sleep she had. She knew that Thomas would be coming back to the village today and she had to tell Carl and get him to come with her to the station to pick him up. Then she would have to explain to the Dingle's why she was helping Thomas out, well what could she say? Thomas is Tyler's big brother and Sian wants Tyler to have his big brother, everyone would just have to accept that.

Sian's phone began to buzz.

1 New Message from Thomas

Will you and dad be picking me up?

Sian quickly sent her reply

Yeah x

Feeling that Tyler would soon be up, Sian forced herself out of her warm bed and downstairs where Noah was sat watching telly.

"Shouldn't you be getting ready for school?" Sian asked ruffling his hair.

"Mum said I could have the day off school." Noah explained.

"So you can spend time with your cousins or so she can have a lie in?" asked Sian whilst filling the kettle full of water.

"Do you really want me to answer that?"

"Hmmm." Sian suddenly realised something. "Where's my dad?"

Cain had slept on the couch last night so that Maxine and Shannon could have his bed, Charity was in Debbie's room and Noah was at the moment sleeping in Sarah's bed in the room she shared with Tyler. Lindsay, Lauren, Becky and Danielle had gone to The Grange and Sian thought it was about time Charity went there as well.

"Went to see his girlfriend, said he'd be back in a bit."

"Yeah, well he'll want her to meet Shannon won't he?" Sian made herself a cup of tea just as Maxine came down. "D'you want a cuppa Auntie Max?"

"Yeah thanks darling." Said Maxine. "Where's Cain?"

"Gone to fetch his girlfriend." Said Sian pouring another mug of tea. "You couldn't keep an eye down here while I go get dressed could you?"

"I'm sure I can manage." Said Maxine taking the tea from Sian.

Sian went back upstairs into her room and quickly got dressed. She checked her phone and noticed 2 new messages. 1 from Thomas and 1 from Jai.

Should get to train station at 2:30

Up to much today?

Not wanting to bother with Jai, Sian ignored his message and continued to get ready.

Back downstairs Charity and Maxine were sat at the table while Shannon, Noah and Tyler sat watching the telly just as Cain and Moira walked in.

"And where have you been?" quizzed Charity. "Hope you didn't go for a quickie in the barn with him, Moira."

Moira chuckled.

"I went to get Moira so she can meet Shannon." Said Cain gesturing for Shannon to come over. "Shannon this Moira my girlfriend, Moira this is Shannon my daughter."

"Well its very nice to meet you." Smiled Moira.

"And I have some news for you," said Cain kneeling down to Shannon. "Me and Moira we're having a baby, so you are going to have a baby brother or sister."

"I rather have a sister." Said Shannon.

"Well fingers crossed you might just get one."

Sian then came down stairs.

"Alright sweetheart?" said Cain when Sian entered the crowded living room.

"I don't mean to sound like a pain but what's going to happen when Debbie and the kids get back?" Sian asked the adults.

"What d'you mean?" asked Charity.

"No offence mum but I don't think Debbie fancies sharing a room with you. And you're certainly not sharing with me- Tyler can you go upstairs and start getting ready, I'll be up in a bit."

Tyler nodded and ran upstairs.

"Anyway I was thinking maybe we could go out for lunch today Sian?" suggested Charity.

"Can't, I'm going into town with Tyler."

"Well I'll come with you."

"Mum, I'm not in a mood with you for yesterday, just spend some time with your sisters."

"D'you want a lift into town, Sian?" asked Cain.

"No you're alright dad." Smiled Sian before going upstairs to see to Tyler.

"Well how about we all meet up for drinks in the at around 3?" suggested Charity as Sian zipped up Tyler's coat.

"Yeah alright whatever." Shrugged Sian.

"Sian, is everything alright?" asked Cain.

"Yeah. So I'll meet you all in the pub at 3." Said Sian leaving the house.

Cain turned to Charity. "D'you reckon something's wrong?"

"It'll just be her time of the month."

"Mummy where are we going?" asked Tyler.

"To daddy's." Said Sian.

"Why?"

"Because he's taking us to the train station."

"Why's he taking us to the train station?"

"Because," Sian whispered. "we are going to pick up Thomas."

"Really?" said Tyler, clearly excited.

"Yeah, but daddy doesn't know yet so let me tell him."

Once Sian and Tyler arrived at The Mill, Tyler ran inside yelling 'dad' off the top of his lungs.

"Hey son." Said Carl as he picked up Tyler. "You working today?" he asked Sian.

"No. I need a lift to the train station."

"What d'you need a lift to the train station for?"

"Thomas needs us to pick him up."

"You what?"

"Thomas phoned yesterday, said he was in London and he's coming back. Wanted me to tell you and then go pick him up."

"Why didn't he phone me?"

"Thought you didn't want him." Sian picked up Carl's car keys and walked out the house. "C'mon."

"Becky will you behave pushing her high on the swings, what have I told you?" yelled Lindsay. She was sat on a bench with Lauren while Becky played with Danielle in the park.

"Thought I'd recognise that big gob of yours anywhere!"

Lindsay turned around and saw Eli and Marlon standing behind her, both looking as smug as ever.

"You know, I thought I'd miss you two whist I was away but, no."

"Wow, look at that I'm heartbroken." Said Marlon sarcastically. "I'm guessing this Lauren."

"Yeah, Lauren these are your cousins Marlon and Eli."

"Hiya." Muttered Lauren.

"And that's Becky and Danielle." Lindsay pointed to her daughters on the swings.

"God hasn't our Becky grown, I tell you time really does fly." Muttered Marlon.

"I'm guessing the family drinks thing Charity's organised is because you're here." Said Eli.

"Yeah and our Maxine and Shannon."

"I bet Cain's thrilled to have Shannon back." Said Marlon.

"Anyways it has been lovely talking to you Lindsay but I better get to work." Said Eli before stalking off.

"So you back for good or is this just a visit?" asked Marlon.

"No, I figured me and the girls could stick around for a bit seen as I left my husband."

"I was just going to ask about Mark, what happened?"

"If she won't tell us, she won't tell you." Said Lauren.

"Lauren go to the shop with your sisters." Sighed Lindsay.

"Oh for god sake, I am old enough to know why you left dad you know?" said Lauren as she stormed off towards Becky and Danielle.

"Go on then, what happened that's so bad you can't tell the girls?" asked Marlon.

"Mark's got another family. I didn't want the girls to know because I didn't want to see them hurt."

"Well they sort of are, I mean you've left their dad and haven't told them why."

"When you come up with simple way to tell your kids that their dad is a cheating scum bag who has another family Marlon then do share it with me. Although you don't have kids, so you might never have to deal with this."

"I do actually."

"What?"

"I've got a son called Leon. I had him with Rhona."

"No way."

"Yeah, we're not together though, she's with Paddy and I'm with Laurel."

"You mean the vicars wife Laurel."

"Ashley's not the vicar anymore."

"Jesus, I can't keep leaving here, the minute I come back everything's changed. Next thing you'll be telling me is that Uncle Zak and Lisa got a divorce."

Cain and Moira sat in the café with Shannon, Brenda placed down two teas and a chocolate milkshake before walking back to the counter.

"So, do you two live together?" asked Shannon.

"Not yet." Said Moira.

"Well when you do can I have my own bedroom at your house."

"Of course you can." Said Cain.

"And if you have a baby boy can you call him Harry?"

"Why Harry?" asked Cain knowing that one of Cameron's kids is called Harry.

"After Harry Styles."

"Who's Harry Styles?"

"Is he one of the boys from One Direction?" asked Moira. Shannon nodded. "My Holly is obsessed with them."

"Who's Holly?" asked Shannon.

"Holly is my oldest daughter."

"You've got kids?"

"Yes, my oldest is Adam, then Holly and then Hannah."

"Are they my age?"

"No they're teenagers now."

"If you and daddy get married, can I be a bridesmaid."

"Yes, but I don't think me and your dad are going to get married any time soon."

"But will you promise me I can be a bridesmaid if you do."

"I promise."

"Where is he?" asked Carl for the tenth time as he, Sian and Tyler sat in the car outside the train station.

"Train might be late." Shrugged Sian.

Carl looked in the back seat to check on Tyler who was happily watching Toy Story on the portable DVD player he'd bought him last Christmas.

"I hope we never have to go through this with him."

"What? Him running away or us picking him up?"

"Both. I wish he could stay little forever."

"So do I."

"I remember when I first met him."

"I remember when you finally let me see him."

"You know why that happened. Cain had been threatening my family."

"But he wouldn't hurt Tyler so that's why you took him."

"You got custody of him in the end."

"Yeah, two years later." Sian sighed before continuing on. "I don't regret what I did with you. I regret breaking Chas' heart. But I don't regret what we did because-"

"We got Tyler….Would you ever do it again?"

"With you? I dunno. I mean neither of us are seeing anyone but I honestly couldn't see you and me together."

"I mean, would you ever have another baby with me?"

Sian opened her mouth to answer when Tyler yelled. "Thomas!"

Carl and Sian climbed out the car as Thomas walked over to them.

"Hey, how are you?" asked Sian hugging him.

"Alright." He said letting go. "Dad."

Carl hugged him tightly. "Why did you leave son?"

"No wanted me."

"I wanted you."

"C'mon, let's go back to the pub and we can talk." Said Sian.

The three climbed into the car and headed back to the village.

"Where's Sian, you'd think she'd be back by now." said Lisa.

The Dingle's (Zak, Lisa, Belle, Sam, Samson, Cain, Moira, Charity, Noah, Maxine, Shannon, Lindsay, Lauren, Becky, Danielle, Marlon and Eli) had all met up in the pub and were waiting for Sian and Tyler.

"She's probably still shopping." Said Zak.

"What you think Tyler would be happy about that?" said Cain.

"I still think we should invite Chas over, Charity." Said Marlon.

"No." said Charity. "This is a family drink and Chas is not family.

"She might not be your family but she's our family." Said Lisa.

"I don't care. Some of you might forgive her for what she did to our Debbie but I don't." said Charity.

"Well I don't care what you say, I'll be nice to her if she offers me her spare room," said Lindsay. "Chas come and have a drink with us!"

"Am I allowed?" Chas asked.

"No." said Charity.

"Yes." Said Cain loudly.

"Oh, cheers." Said Chas sitting down. "Where's our Sian."

"Out shopping with Tyler." Said Lisa.

"Bet Tyler isn't too happy about that." Said Chas.

Just then Tyler ran into the pub and over to the family.

"Hey mate," said Cain, sitting Tyler on his knee. "Where's your mum?"

Tyler pointed to the door and Sian walked in with Thomas and Carl following her.

Everyone in the pub went quiet as Zak jumped up out of his seat.

"What the hell is he doing here?" Zak demanded.

"He's my son and he's back to stay with me." Said Carl.

"Is that where you were?" Zak asked Sian. "You were bringing him back!"

"Granddad-" started Sian.

"No I don't want to hear it!"

"Granddad, he's Tyler's brother."

"I don't care if he's the bloody Prime Minister he does not break my daughter's heart and then come back!"

"Dad." Muttered Belle.

"Belle I'm sorry." Said Thomas.

"I don't care. You left without saying goodbye or telling me where you were going. I thought you were dead." Snarled Belle.

"But I'm not Belle. I'm back and I won't hurt you this time I promise."

"I don't care, Thomas. Just leave and never come back."

"No he's not going anywhere." Said Carl. "My son is staying here with me whether you lot like it or not.
