Chapter six
Hello my beauties! I decided that because of the amazing reviews and of course, my ace readers, that I would upload another chapter for you guys today! Jmlane1996; thank you so much for your review, especially the improvements and I completely agree with you, Steve is such a control freak (but a gorgeous one)! So here it is. There are some girly things in this chapter, so men, brave yourself if you are like Steve! Ahaha enjoy!
"Charlie, wake up." Cath said. Charlie just turned in the bed and pulled the blanket over her. "It is twelve o'clock." Charlie groaned. "Charlotte, please...I was thinking we could go down to the beach?"
"Have you never heard of jet lag?" Charlie asked as she sat up abruptly in bed.
"You know what? Fine. Do what you want. Steve left this for you. He said it has all the numbers you need." Cath slammed an iPhone 5 onto the dressed and turned to leave.
"Where is he?"
"Work. He'll be back in a couple of hours to sort out schools with you." Cath answered before leaving.
"Great..." Charlie said under her breath. She grabbed a hair tie of the beside table and put her brown her into a high ponytail. Then she walked over to the dresser, picked up the phone and unlocked it. She went onto the contacts;
Steve
Danny
Kono
Chin
Cath
Kamekona
"Who the hell is Kamekono?" She said to herself. Then she went onto the messages and texted Kono;
Hey Kono, can u come over later? Or can we do something?
Charlie x
Half an hour later she was dressed in a short sundress and sandals. She checked her phone again and was happy to see that Kono had replied.
Hi Charlie,
Your dad has invited us out for dinner tonight so I'm going to see you then. Wear something nice! Can't wait to see you! X
Ok...Charlie could cope with that. It might even be a little bit of fun. She wandered downstairs and saw Cath in the kitchen. Charlie made her way way to the fridge and pulled a carton of orange juice out and began to drink it.
"The glasses are in the cupboard next to the sink." Cath said looking up from her laptop.
"OK." Charlie said as she continued to drink. Catherine got up and got a glass for her. She then grabbed the carton, poured the juice into the glass and thrust it into Charlie's hand.
"I meant use a glass Charlotte." She said.
Charlie rolled her eyes and put the glass on the counter before walking towards the front door.
"Uh where do you think you're going?" Catherine asked as she followed her. The teenager was really beginning to get to her.
"Out."
"Out where? Do you even know Hawaii?"
"Well, if you expect me to stay cooped up in here all day wrong, you are mistaken Catherine." Charlie said with her hands on her hips.
"You can't go out." Cath said as she turned away.
"You can't stop me. Like you pointed out earlier, you aren't my mother." Charlie turned the door handle.
Catherine grabbed her wrist and pulled her away. "I said no Charlotte and that is that. Just go up to your room."
"No."
"Excuse me?"
"I said no."
"How dare you-" Catherine stopper when the door opened and Steve walked in.
"What's going on?" He asked.
"Nothing." Charlie feigned innocence.
"Yeah sure. Cath?"
Catherine looked at him for a moment and then at Charlie. "She's telling the truth. Nothing that concerns you, I have handled it." Charlie gaped at her for a second.
"Hmm...right well, we are going out to dinner with the team. We're meeting them at the Hilton at about six." Steve said as he took his gun an badge off.
"Steve?" Charlie asked.
"Yep?"
"I need to go to a store."
"Which store?"
"A drugstore."
"Why? What's wrong?" Steve asked looking at her.
"Please can you just take me?"
"No I want to know why-"
"Steve, I think you should just take her." Cath said realising what Charlie was talking about.
"I'm not taking her unless she tells me why." Steve crossed his arms. "I've got all day Charlie."
"I started my period. So I need I get some tampons. Happy now?" Charlie said.
Steve's cheeks flushed and he cleared his throat. Charlie smiled obviously loving his embarrassment.
"What?" Steve tried.
"You know what a period is right?" Charlie asked.
Catherine laughed and Steve looked at her. "Yes I know what a...it is."
"Period, Steve. You can say the word." Catherine said.
"I'd rather not. Um Cath, do you want to...you take her to buy her...things?" Steve asked.
"No it's OK. You go." Catherine grinned at him.
"Fine. I'll take to the one in Waikiki. I need to get some other stuff too." He said grabbing his keys again. "Let's go."
Twenty minutes later, Steve and Charlie walked into the drugstore. Charlie walked over to the female section and Steve unwillingly followed.
"Kono!" Charlie said rushing to hug the young woman.
"Charlie? Hi! Who else is here with you?" Kono asked returning the teenagers hug.
"That would be me." Steve said.
"Boss..."
"Yeah." He sighed. "What are you doing here?"
"Is it not obvious?" Charlie asked but was ignored by both Steve and Kono.
"Uhh I had to get some supplies, you know? I ran out of tampons and condoms-"
"OK. You know what? I can't do this whole feminine supplies thing. Here. I'm waiting outside." Steve said, thrusting a twenty dollar note into Charlie's hand and leaving the store.
Did you like?! I hope it wasn't too awkward but I felt it was something Steve would have to deal with! Please review and who knows, maybe you will get another chapter today?! :)
