It was midnight and all in the house and The Vic was quiet. A bedroom door opened and Robbie walked out, she had been sleeping for hours and had woken up, she was a little hungry since she missed out on dinner, the dinner Glenda had made.
A little light came out of the kitchen. Robbie walked up to the kitchen to see if someone had forgotten to turn the light off or that someone was awake maybe.
In the kitchen Peggy was reading some magazine while drinking a cup of tea, dressed in her nightgown, Robbie assumed auntie Peg couldn't sleep either.
When Robbie walked in Peggy looked up and noticed her niece.
- 'Hiya darling, why are you awake at this hour?'
- 'I can ask you the same question auntie Peg'Robbie said sitting down.
- 'Well i asked first'Peggy said smiling'want a cuppa?'
- 'Yes please' Robbie said starring.
- 'Heard you wasn't feeling well tonight that you went to bed early?'Peggy said.
- 'Yeah'Robbie said.
- 'Missing out of Glenda's dinner?' Peggy asked.
- 'Yeah, i'm hungry now'Robbie said standing up to look for something to eat.
- 'Sit down darling i'll make you some toast allright?'Peggy said.
- 'Aw thanks auntie Peg' Robbie said.
Another bedroomdoor opened, it was Roxy who needed to use the toilet. She turned her head to the kitchen and walked there instead of the bathroom.
She saw Robbie and auntie Peggy sitting at the kitchentable talking and drinking tea.
- 'Oi what's this?'Roxy said walking into the kitchen.
- 'Robbie and i had a bit difficulty finding dreamland so we're having a cup of tea' Peggy said already standing up to get Roxy one.
- I'm alright auntie Peg, i just had fallen asleep but woke up cause i need to use the loo'Roxy said looking at her sister eating toast 'you must be hungry missing out on mums dinner'.
- 'Yes i am hungry' Robbie said continuing eating her toast.
- So what was that all about you feeling sick all of a sudden?'Roxy asked sitting down for a minute.
- Nothing'Robbie said.
- Well it didn't look like nothing to me'Roxy said.
- I don't wanna talk about it allright!'Robbie said calmly.
- Did she tell you auntie Peg? 'Roxy asked.
- No darling'Peggy shook her head.
- Rox i'm not gonna talk about it allright no go use the toilet and go back to bed for God sakes' Robbie said raising her voice a bit.
- Oh you're gonna tell me what to do now ey'Roxy said.
- Roxy why don't you go to the toilet darling and then back to bed' Peggy said knowing where this was heading.
- I'm not having my-not-yet-16-but-still-my-little-baby-sister telling me what to do, why don't you finish your toast and you go back to bed!'Roxy said grabbing Robbie's arm, annoyed at her babysister telling her what to do at this time at night.
- Let go of me, and shut up will you Rox you'll wake up the whole flaming house' Robbie said standing up.
- Oi what is going on in here, do you know how loud you both are' Ronnie's voice said giving both Robbie and Roxy a scare.
- Oh please do not disturb the little madam at her midnight snack Ron' Roxy said sarcastic.
Robbie gave Roxy a slap on the arm and said"oh just give your big gob a rest for a minute yeah if thats even possible, it was quiet in here till your eyes decided to open up'.
- You go to bed now 'Ronnie said grabbing Robbie's arm and pushing her out of the kitchen 'And you should go back to bed too Rox, get some sleep before we regret it in the morning, not much sleep has never done you any good!' Ronnie looked very serious at Roxy.
- Ron you can't tell me what to do anymore'Roxy said.
Ronnie also grab hold of Roxy's arm'Sorry auntie peg, goodnight we'll see you in the morning yeah' Ronnie said dragging Roxy also out of the kitchen.
- ' Auntie Peg she can't…'Roxy tried to say.
- Goodnight Rox'Ronnie said waiting untill Roxy gave in and walked to the toilet where she was suppose to go earlier.
Ronnie walked back into the bedroom where she and Robbie slept while staying at The Vic.
Robbie was already back in bed with closed eyes.
- 'I know you fall asleep easy but not this easy'Ronnie said laying next to her babysister.
- Goodnight Ron'Robbie said not opening her eyes.
Ronnie sighed 'Roxy's only concerned, just like we all are'Ronnie said stroking her hand through Robbie's hair.
- She's nosy, Rox is, that's something different'Robbie said opening her eyes looking at Ronnie.
- She has a different way of showing, common you know that by now don't you?'Ronnie said pinching Robbie's nose.
- Mum i just wanna go to sleep yeah, i'm not in the best mood either if i miss out on any sleep' Robbie said closing her eyes agian.
- And don't we know it'Ronnie said stroking one time more through Robbie's hair then giving her a kiss on her forehead'Goodnight babe, i love ya'
- Love ya too mumsy'Robbie said snuggling up to Ronnie and falling back to sleep again.
It was Saturdaymorning, Peggy was sitting in the kitchen after she got to bed last night, after the midnightkitchenscene with Robbie an Roxy, she really couldn't fall back asleep, so when it started to get light outside she figured to just get up and see how it would go, maybe in the afternoon she would go back to bed for a little nap maybe.
- Morning Peggy, you're up early'Glenda said walking into the kitchen grabbing herself a cup of coffee.
- Yeah i didn't get much sleep last night'Peggy said.
- Oh, how come? Glenda asked sitting down at the table.
- Because Robbie was causing a scene'Roxy said walking into the kitchen also.
- I don't remembered it like that Roxy'Peggy said looking dissaproving at her niece.
Then Ronnie also walked into the kitchen.
- Goodmorning family'Ronnie said.
- So?'Glenda asked.
- Forget it'Roxy said.
- Forget about what?'Ronnie asked.
- It's Nothing'Roxy said trying to save herself.
- Well apparantely Peggy didn't get any sleep last night and Roxy said that it was because Robbie was causing a scene'Glenda said.
- Cause Robbie was causing a scene don't make me laugh Rox? Ronnie asked'For once it wasn't Robbie, and you know that'. Ronnie gave Roxy a serious look.
- Nobody tells me what to do' Roxy said looking down.
- And if Robbie doesn't wanna say anything to you, she doesn't have too, allright' Ronnie said giving Roxy an angry look.
- Allright allright'Peggy said' It's another day now, so ehm is she still sleeping then darling?'
- Yes she is, she fell asleep quick but she kept tossing and turning, at one moment i thought she might be having a bad dream or something, she probably must have been dreaming of Roxy yelling at her' Ronnie said first serious then turning sarcastic to tease Roxy.
- Very funny Ron' Roxy said.
- So have you figured out why she wasn't feeling well last night?'Glenda asked.
- She hasn't really told me yet, but let me handle it yeah, i'm taking her to the caf for breakfast when she gets up'Ronnie said.
- What happenend to housearrest this weekend?'Roxy said.
- That's still on, but going with me to have breakfast at the caf is not really like shopping with your friends now is it' Ronnie said grabbing a cup of coffee then headed to the bedroom again.
- Oi! Roxy said.
- Just let it Roxy please, Ronnie will figure her out allright'Peggy said taking a zip of her coffee.
Ronnie had walked back into the bedroom were Robbie, still in bed, was starting to wake up. Ronnie got on the bed and stroked her hand softly across Robbie's face.
- Mum? Robbie was babbling a bit.
- Yes, are you awake babe?' Ronnie asked.
- Awake is a very big worth'Robbie said snuggling up to Ronnie'i don't wanna get up for school please'
- It's not a schoolday silly, it's Saturday, and it's already later then you normaly have to get up' Ronnie said putting her arms around Robbie.
- I'm tired' Robbie said putting her head on Ronnie's chest.
- Well glad you don't have anywhere to go then this weekend'Ronnie said sarcastic.
- Ahh so not funny, am i really grounded Ron?' Robbie asked looking up.
- Definitely yes, but i tell ya what, why don't you go take a shower and get dressed and we'll have breakfast at the caf, allright?' Ronnie said.
- We who? Robbie asked.
- Just you and me, don't worry, no Roxy and no mum, i could tell you were upset by her last night' Ronnie said stroking Robbie's hair.
- I'll go take a shower then yeah'Robbie said sitting up wanting to get out of bed.
Ronnie grabbed Robbie by her waist"Babe if something is bothering you or something happened, you tell me right?
- Yeah' Robbie said and opened the bedroom door.
- Robbie? Ronnie said.
- I said yeah!'Robbie closed the door behind her and hopped in the bathroom before anyone else saw her.
