CHAPTER 15:

~~Drunk as hell~~

INTRO:

"It has to be- I- like you," he says and I stop in my tracks

"You what," I say

"Like- crush- a big one," he says and my mouth drops open,

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I WALK IN AS QUIETLY AS I CAN, the girls should all be still asleep, If not Lola should be getting ready to wake up for some food soon. I shut the door, and make my way to the kitchen, I grab a glass out from the cabinet, and I slightly nudge the tap, releasing a steady stream of water. I take a long drink of the water almost dropping the glass when the light flickered on, I spin around water splashing everywhere, I turn to the face of a marking Grayson

"What the hell Grayson," I say taking a tablecloth bending down to clean up the mess that I made, he leans against the door frame

"Did you have fun" he replies

"On what," I say busying myself in cleaning the putrid sink, I don't understand how this turned out to be so dirty, I was gone for like 4 hours, and the kids have been asleep the whole time.

"You know what... the date" he smirks

"It was good, really fun," I replied, trying to sound like it I enjoyed myself

"Sure, that sounds really convincing," he says

"I don't have to explain myself to you of all people" I say back and walk up the stairs up the hallway through to Sakia's bedroom, I peek my head in and she is sleeping so, I quietly head in and kiss her cheek before, turning the sound machine down slightly, I kiss her forehead before shutting the door, taking the baby monitor, so I can keep an eye on her.

I take a look back and I see the screen of the TV reflecting back on the wall behind in the living room Grayson is watching TV. I then open the door to the master bedroom and Lola is asleep in her crib, but I can tell she is starting to wake up by her crumpled face.

I then turned my head and Ava is sleeping, soft snores erupting from her small mouth, her chest slightly rising and falling, I smile slightly, before, I pick Lola up and settle her he quietly heading downstairs.

Ignoring Grayson who is once again back to ignoring me, I make Lola her bottle before, settling in the rocking chair in the nursery to feed her.

Once he's finished I burp her and rock her to sleep, exiting the nursery placing her in the crib, before I quickly head to the shower, I step into the shower, the warm water releasing the tension knots in my back. After I finish my shower, I brush my hair and brush my teeth before I turn off the lamp lighting up the master bedroom, cuddling into the bed moving closer to Ava.

...

I wake up the next day from Saskia sliding into the bed beside Ava and me

"Mummy!!" she yells shaking me

"Yes my love," I say sitting up

"I'm hungry," she says

"Alright, did you want to eat now?" I ask rubbing the sleep out of my eyes

"Please," she says and Ava rolls over yawning before a crumpled look resides on her tired eyes, it's going to be a grumpy day today, like every day, perks of being a mother of 3.

"Okay let's go then" I say, checking Lola who is still sound asleep, I pick up a grumpy Ava, who whines when she is moved, I place her over my shoulder, and grab Saskia's hand before walking down the stairs, where a snoring Grayson is sprawled out over the couch, an empty bottle of alcohol on the table.

I shake my head and walk into the kitchen I place Ava on one of the chairs and she sits up, and I help Saskia get onto the counter.

"So what are we thinking ladies," I say and Saskia giggles, that something she loves when I say, and girlfriend, I think it makes her three-year-old brain feel older

"Pancakes" she squeals

"Alright then" I reply and Ava looks up at me

"Do you want some milk?" I ask and she nods

I grab out the milk carton and fill up her sippy cup, before handing it to her, which she takes with a cheesy grin.

I turn to Saskia and she smiles at me, so I hand her a cup with milk in it. I then proceed to get out all of the ingredients that we will need to make pancakes when Grayson stumbles into the kitchen still drunk.

"Wassuppp" family he slurs

"Grayson" I snap

"Yess baby, wow you looking fine," he says and the girls giggle

"Are you serious right now?" I say

"Yeah I'm so serious," he says making a monkey face and the girls squeal

Once again he fools me, not knowing what to do, I call his best friend Louis, I can't have him around the lids when he is acting like this and to be honest I can't stand being around at the moment either, he picks up immediately groggy, a little boy chanting in the background

"Hello?" he asks

Whilst Louis makes his way over I set the girls on the couch watching a movie, and I take Grayson placing him on a dining room chair, handing him a glass of water, I then hand him so panadol and he keeps mumbling something

"So-so-so-sorry-" he slurs

"What are you saying?" I ask, grabbing out the rest of the things that I need.

"I'm sorry Avie" he hiccups

"That's not good enough Grayson" I reply continuing to make the pancake batter

"It has to be- I- like you," he says and I stop in my tracks

"You what," I say

"Like- crush- a big one," he says and my mouth drops open, but I can't say anything else when I hear a knock on the door which I guess is Louis.

"Thanks again," I say to Louis

"No worries, I'll return him when he's sober" he replies

"Alright, call me after Louis" I say and he nods shutting the door, and he drives off, I turn around and Saskia is waiting at the door, blocking her ears, the closer I walk up the driveway and reach the door, I hear an ear-piercing cry, Lola's awake and not happy, and this day has only just begun.

As soon as Lola is content, I start back up with the girls making breakfast which at this point are starving so I quickly pour two small bowls of cheerios for them.

I then proceed to get the girls to help me finish making breakfast, which goes as good as it can, considering Ava was in a bad mood and Saskia wants to do everything.

Grayson doesn't come home for the rest of the day, which lucky for me the girls have daycare and Ally didn't mind having the baby, so I smashed out all of the work that I needed to, I cleaned up the house, the best that I could and was able to complete my shift with Billie.
