A couple hours later the sound of babybabbling woke up Robbie from her sleep, she sat up and looked around. Confused at first seeing Amy in the cot with her in the room. Then she remembered Amy crying a bit last night, Robbie had picked up Amy from her cot and tried to calm her down by having her stay with her on the bed. She must have fallen a sleep obviously. Next to her was an empty space, Roxy must not have been home yet since the bed on that side was still looking tidy. She looked at the alarmclock, it was nearly 6 o'clock in the morning. She got out of the bed and walked up to Amy and got her out of her cot.
- 'Eugh Amy you really need changing'Robbie said holding Amy in front of her with straight arms so the smell would be away from her nose.
- 'Roxy where are you'Robbie said softly. She then walked out of the room with Amy still in front of her. Everyone was still sleeping. Robbie then held Amy in one arm and opened the bedroomdoor where she and Ronnie slept. She then clicked on the light.
- "Mum!' Robbie said 'Oh…'
Robbie had a little shock when she saw Ronnie was not the only one in bed.
- 'Jack?'Robbie said with a smile.
- 'Babe…what do you want?'Ronnie said feeling a little betrayed on having Jack in her bed.
- 'Eh what does it smell like?'Robbie said handing Amy over to Jack.
- 'Where's Roxy?'Ronnie asked already suspicious about what her sister might be up to.
- 'I don't know she hasn't been home yet and since i don't have my phone i can't check if she has left me any messages'Robbie said smart.
- 'Stop being such a wise-ass, go change her i'll check the phones'Ronnie said being annoyed by the fact Roxy wasn't home yet. Roxy probably had taken advantage of this situation by staying out really late while her daughter was being taken care off.
- 'Eh hello, Jack could do it, he's her dad' Robbie said while Ronnie gave her Amy back.
Ronnie just looked serious at Robbie.
- 'Alright alright i'll do it, i'm the mitchellmaid in this house anyway' Robbie said turning around and walking back to the other bedroom.
Ronnie checked her messages, there was not one of Roxy, only older messages. Ronnie got a little panicky and grabbed Robbie's phone out of her purse and looked. There were a couple of messages from Robbie's friends and the last one by Roxy:
"Robbie could u tell Ron that we want 2 all move in nr 27, oh and i'm staying Christians 2night!Cu in tha morning ;D ur bestes sis RoxXx love ya"
Ronnie sighed and then bit her lip, like she always did being stressed or when she really wanted to shout, scream or smash someones head in.
- 'What is it?'Jack asked.
- 'She left Robbie a text, Robbie who is grounded and is not allowed to use her phone, Roxy's letting her babysit while she's of at Christians place for the night, probably wasted and all' Ronnie said 'I'm taking care of 2 teenagers and a baby Jack'.
- 'Well she probably thought you , Robbie and Glenda were at home so…i mean it's not very responsible of her ofcourse'.
- 'What do i have to do, ground her too, give her a smack, i mean i can't but she totally deserve one'Ronnie sighed again.
- 'Why don't i go check on the girls and you go back to sleep, when Roxy comes home tomorrow we'll talk to her' Jack said soothing Ronnie's cheek with his hand.
- 'Ehm no that's alright, i'll go check on them'Ronnie said giving Jack a kiss then getting out of the bed.
- 'What's going on?'Glenda also had woken up and got onto the landing.
- 'It's Roxy she's over at Christians, i just found out from a text on Robbie's phone, the one she isn't allowed to use so can't read her textmessages, she texted Robbie on purpose so we would find out to late to probably call her or drag her across the street home!'Ronnie said 'just go back to sleep mum we'll talk in the morning alright'.
- 'Sure ok, i'll see you in the morning darling'Glenda said padding Ronnie on the back.
- 'So did she text?'Robbie asked while wiping her little niece clean.
- 'Yeah she's over at Christians' Ronnie said.
- 'In between Christian and Syed haha'Robbie said starting to laugh
- 'Shuss you'll wake up Amy!'Ronnie said
- 'Sorry'Robbie said still grinning about the thought of a snorring Roxy in between Syed and Christian.
- 'Thanks for doing this darling, go back to bed after yeah, try to get some sleep'Ronnie said.
- 'Mum you're ok?'Robbie asked.
- 'Yeah it's just that i could kill your sister sometimes'Ronnie said.
- 'It's that bad huh'Robbie said.
- 'Just go to bed yeah' Ronnie said smiling at a smiling Amy then giving Robbie a cuddle.
- 'So ehm "Jack is back"?'Robbie said with a naughty smile on her face looking up to Ronnie.
- 'Go to sleep noseyjosey'Ronnie said giving Robbie a kiss on the head then leaving the bedroom.
