Sorry it's short, and I'm not overly happy with this Chapter but didn't know how to write it correctly. I tried tho! The next chapter will be longer and better I promise. Also sorry for the delay have been busy watching Dawson's creek and will update by Friday. Thanks for the reviews xx
Chapter 16
April and Heath just arrived at the Braxton household, though there was a hassle for Heath to get April to agree with it. Charlie greeted April with hug and begun to cry again but this time it was in April arms. Charlie was angry with Bianca but she understood why she did it. Ruby followed in suit and hugged April and welcomed her in and told her that she would be here with her through it all.
April soon realised that regardless of what was happening, she knew the Braxton's were her family now, and they were all suffering the pain of Bianca's death but all together they would be able to pull together to get through it. April knew Heath was organising the funeral for her, to make things easy even though it was hard on himself he was never going to show anyone how he was really feeling about the situation, mainly because he knew he needed to look after April no matter what happened.
Ruby sat back down in the lounge with Alexis and Lucas and asked them to help them with the invitations to the up and coming Christmas party, April joined them she knew she needed to get her mind off everything and this was the best way to do it. Emily had started crying, and Charlie had ran off again to make sure her daughter was happy. While the three boys headed out side with a beer in hand to have a chat.
Heath: I miss Bianca, and I don't think I'll ever be able to love April the way I loved Bianca.
Casey: I understand, I will never love anyone the way I love Rubes, she is the only one for me and always will be.
Brax: If this is what we are going to talk about, Charlie was the first woman I ever fell in love with. Despite all the secrets at the start, and the family's never getting along, Charlie is everything. I will do everything in my power to ensure Charlie and our Children never end up doing what Bianca has. I love them all.
Heath: I know what you mean, I knew Charlie was the girl you first loved even though I gave you a hard time about it, I knew you wanted her from the first time you saw her in Angelo's on the single's night I just couldn't allow it to be true in mind.
Brax: Most of we will always be brothers, the three of us and I will always look out for each of you and ensure you two have the best life you can and achieve everything you can.
Casey: I know Brax, same here two both of you.
Heath: I know too Mate, but as for you Case it's up to me and Brax to look out for you.
Casey: I act older then you do Heath!
Heath: Whatever man!
Charlie was in with Emily, feeding her and looking down at her and she thought to herself 'My children will never feel the pain and angst that Bianca felt when she took her own life'. Charlie knew from that moment on that her children and Brax are the most important thing in her life, regardless of the struggles and heartache at times. All of a sudden Alexis came running in "Mummy Mummy! Look at the invitations I helped make for you". Charlie smiled "That's beautiful, do you want to help me deliver them later today?" Alexis jumped up and down "Yes Mummy!"
Charlie knew that her children being so happy meant she could escape from her anger and sadness for the time being, and she knew that they would be able to keep her busy enough while she got the preparations for their annual Christmas party ready. Charlie also knew she had to keep April busy to keep her mind off everything that just happening so she wouldn't cause too much stress on herself during her pregnancy. Bianca would have wanted Charlie to do that, to make sure April was taking it easy.
