Guarded heart

Chapter 31 Siblings banter but sibling love conquers all of that

SUMMERS POV

KNOCK KNOCK

"Who is it?" Sean calls out while I grumble about being woken up so early and Sean pulls me closer as I wrap my arms around him.

"It's Michelle we need Summer a moment" Michelle says

"Sweetheart your friend wants you" Sean says. I sit up and briefly kiss Sean before climbing out of bed and pulling on a dressing Robe as I walk towards the door.

"Hurry back I'm not finished with you yet" Sean says.

"Easy tiger" I say looking over at Sean as he watches me with lust filled eyes.

"Never" Sean says laughing as I open the door and see not only Michelle but Katy and Hahley also stood there.

"What's wrong?" I ask and Hahley pulls my arm so I've tanked out the door while Katy shuts the door.

"We need to move Lisa and Chris before Sean or Ryan have a hissy fit" Hahley whispers.

"What do you mean?" I ask as they start walking towards the lift with Hahley pulling me along.

"They fell asleep watching a film and I found them on the sofa cuddled up when I went to grab a drink" Katy says.

"And why is that a issue let them be" I say.

"Because I don't think Ryan and Sean would be to pleased to see there baby sister they are mega protective over cuddled up with Sean. By all means let them cuddle up but let's get them moved along to a bedroom at least so they don't get disturbed by Sean and Ryan" Michelle says.

"There fully grown men they need to get over it" I say as the lift door opens.

"And is Lisa ready for Emma to see such a scene?" Hahley says.

"Okay we will wake them up" I groan.

CHRIS POV

I feel someone tapping me on the shoulder and I open my eyes to see Hahley, Summer, Katy and Michelle all stood there smiling at me. I go to speak but they all put there fingers to there mouths while pointing at Lisa sleeping peaceful in my arms.

"Carry her upstairs" Summer mouths.

"Don't wake her up" Katy mouths.

Summer then waves her arm indicating to follow them.

I look down at Lisa and see she is peacefully asleep and I can't help my heart swell and how beautiful she looks. I sit us slowly up as I shift Lisa in my arms before standing up with us.

Then I follow the lady's to the lift which is already waiting. We all get into the lift and all the women are smiling at me. I don't know what there game is but I feel like there up to something. However it's to early for games so I ignore there smiling faces and look back at Lisa until the lift doors open. Then they lead the way to a bedroom which isn't the guest room they had for me. Yet Im sure we just walked passed it.

Katy then opens a door for me and I walk in while Michelle leaves the crutches by the bed before walking back out closing the door quietly behind her. I lay Lisa on the bed and cover her with a blanket then I quietly leave the room only to be faced with all the women who look at me with daggers.

"What?" I whisper.

"We had you move so that Sean and Ryan couldn't have a hissy fit seeing there sister asleep next to you. We didn't say leave Lisa sleeping alone" Katy says.

"Yeah, we would of tackled the brothers happily but we wasn't sure on Lisas stance of risking Emma seeing her cuddled up with you asleep" Hahley says.

"Get back in there no women likes to wake up alone after falling asleep being cuddled" Michelle says.

"I will make sure Emma is occupied when she wakes up" Summer says.

"What's the time?" I ask.

"4am" Katy says.

"I should go to my room. I don't want Lisa to freak out when she wake up" I say running hands over my face.

"No get your ass back in her and claim your women!" Katy says

"I wouldn't claim her full just cuddle her" Hahley says.

"Go on why are you wasting all our sleep time?" Summer says

"Alright I'm going" I say since I clearly ain't going to win these women.

LISA'S POV

I felt cold like I'd lost heat I opened my eyes in a hunt for a something to warm me up to see I was in bed with a blanket all over me. Then I remembered that I'd fallen asleep cuddled up to Chris watching the film although he fell asleep first.

Where is he now? I wondered as I sat up to climb under the quilt. Then the door opened and Chris walks in and I see the girls stood behind him and it suddenly dawns on me how I ended up here now. These women I think.

"They insist you shouldn't wake up alone looks like I'm to late" Chris says as he yawns.

"It's okay" I say then I see Katy close the door behind Chris. I open the quilt and climb in while leaving the quilt open for Chris with one arm.

"Your not kicking me out?" Chris asks.

"I'm not cruel enough to send you to face them lot again. Plus I quiet like being cuddled up to you" I say followed by a yawn.

"Well I can't sleep with the quilt so you have two choices no quilt or I'm sleeping in my boxers" Chris says sitting on the edge of the bed.

"I'm cold so I'm having the quilt you do what's best for you so long as you keep down there covered and you only after a cuddle to" I say laying down and closing my eyes.

"I can accept them terms but I may throw in a kiss to" Chris says

"One kiss then sleep" I say laughing

"You drive a hard bargain" Chris says laughing and I can hear him getting undressed.

"Why are you cold anyway?" Chris asks.

"I don't know I was nice and warm until a moment ago then I suddenly felt cold" I say trying not to yawn.

"Well it was only a moment ago you left my arms so it's probably my body heat you miss and once you gain it back no doubt you be roasting" Chris says climbing into bed.

I open my eyes to see Chris looking at me smiling.

"Body heat, makes sense" I say as we cuddle back up.

"hmm mmm body heat" Chris says before he claims my lips in a sweet passionate kiss. Then as Chris breaks off from the kiss the kiss he says "Sweet dreams".

CHRIS POV

I wake up to feel Lisa moving. I pull her back to me and he back is against my chest as I kiss her neck.

"where are you running off to?" I ask.

"It's just gone eight in the morning. Emma should be up now" Lisa says.

"Summer said she would look after Emma for you so give me a few more minutes to hold you close" I say as I close my eyes again.

I feel Lisa turn in my arms as she rests her her cast leg on mine.

"Do that again" Lisa says

"Do what again?" I ask confused.

"Kiss my neck again. You did it to quickly I couldn't figure out if I liked it or not" Lisa says.

I open my eyes and look at Lisa "I'm sorry I didn't think as I was half asleep" I say running my fingers through Lisas hair as our eyes lock into each others. I love how soft Lisas hair is and how smooth it runs between my fingers.

"Do it again" Lisa says.

"I will do this my way" I say then I claim Lisas lips in a sweet passonate kiss before I run a few trails of kiss down Lisas neck by her ear. Slow and gentle before I kiss my way back up to Lisas mouth and claim her lips in a deeper passonate kiss and I swear a little moan left Lisa.

"You okay?" I ask as I break away from the kiss

"Yeah" Lisa says as she cuddles into me and I take that's as a good sign.

"What time are we going to see your dad today?" Lisa asks.

"When do you want to go? However today's daily gift is a Tescos delibery of a weeks worth of shopping" I say.

"I will have one of the guards take it in. We can go see your dad whenever your ready" Lisa says.

"Okay" I say

"We should get up now" Lisa says.

"Morning came to soon" I say before I briefly quickly kiss Lisa again then sit us up

"I know but that's the life of a parent. Early starts is the normal for me now" Lisa says.

"I know, right I will go get ready and then come back to walk down with you" I say before kissing Lisas forehead as I sit her on the edge of the bed. I start to get dressed again and notice Lisa has gone quiet so I look at Lisa to see she is watching me getting dressed. And her eyes are glued to my body.

"You want me to leave my top off?" I ask teasing Lisa. She then looks up at me as I smile at her.

"I didn't say anything" Lisa says acting innocent.

"You didn't need to. Your eyes told me a thousand words" I say as I wink at Lisa and pull my t-shirt over my head.

"I will be ready in half hour, you have a bathroom attached to your room" Lisa says.

"Okay I will be back in half hour" I say before I kiss Lisas cheek then walk out the room heading to mine to get changed.

LISA'S POV

After I'm washed I notice there's nothing in the wardrobe here that will fit over the cast. No shorts and the only dress in the wardrobe is a red strapless top that comes down just over my ass I was made to wear matching the girls for Hahley birthday a few years ago. I hated the dress.

I put my robe on before I head for the door to go to Summers room to raid her closet. As I open the door I see Chris is stood there waiting yet he is ten minutes early wearing black jeans and a light blue shirt with the top two buttons undone. Sleeved rolled up to his elbows. Hair is wet but combed back. Damn can this bloke just stop looking hot I think as I see his Abbs line for line through his shirt.

"A PJ day?" Chris asks with raised eyebrows.

"No, wardrobe issue so I'm going to raid Summers" I say.

"I see" Chris says.

"Wait inside if you want I need to come back for a few bits anyway" I say

"Take your time" Chris says smiling at me and I make my way to the other end of the floor where Sean and Summers bedroom is. I still don't know why they didn't bring me down a level after things settled.

When I reach the room I open I door and wish I'd knocked first but uts hard on crutches.

"Ahh, damn it Sean your break her doing that" I say closing my eyes.

"s**t" Sean curses

"Hurry and get covered before I fall to the ground" I shout.

"What's wrong why are you here?" Sean asks as Summer laughs.

"I've got no clothes or do you want me to strut around in my I'm underwear?" I ask.

"No you stay there but you can open your eyes now" Sean says and I open my eyes and see there both covered with a quilt.

"Summer tell this stupid brother of mine he can't stay in here while I raid your clothes trying to find something to wear" I say

"She is right you need to get up" Summer says laughing

"I'm already up" Sean says smiling at Summer.

"Arg your disgusting!" I say rolling my eyes.

"Here take this blanket" Summer says laughing handing it to Sean from the bottom of the bed.

"Once your dresses I'd love a cuppa and some pancakes" I say to Sean.

"Be glad your on crutches otherwise I'd throw a pillow at you right now" Sean says as he wraps the bla ket around him under the quilt.

"Be glad I'm a nice sister that won't whack you with my crutches for such a horrid comment" I say sticking out my tongue at Sean. Summer just laughs even more.

"I'm glad you find it funny but I will deal with you later" Sean says to summer.

"Alright to much information scoot" I say as I walk towards the wardrobe.

"Make her wear a dress" Sean says.

"Careful what you wish for as the only dress in my wardrobe shows my ass and to much cleavage I can go put that on of you want everything on show" I say.

"Get her a black bag" Sean shouts from the bathroom and I just laugh.

"Okay what you want to wear?" Summer asks.

"You got a white jump suit?" I ask.

"yeah" Summer says

"Then that's what I'm hunting out" I say.

"I will get it for you" Summer says as I see she is walking towards me with her dressing Robe on.

"I'm sorry for walking in like that. But it's hard to knock on these things" I say.

"It's fine it's pretty funny actually and that postion wouldn't break me if anything it makes it feel more um better" Summer says.

"Okay I'm not ready to discover different positions just yet. A kiss and cuddle is just fine for me" I say

"Here you go. But when your ready me and the girls got you covered for all your questions" Summer says passing me the jump suit.

"Help me get changed in here" I say

"What if Sean walks out" Summer asks.

"I'm sure he will be in the shower but if he does I will shout at him to close his eyes. I already got my clean underwear on anyway" I say.

"Okay then" Summer says as I hold onto a unit to take off my robe.

"The leg will fit over the cast yeah?" I ask.

"Yeah should do" Summer says as she helps me get the legs in as I hold onto the shelve with the crutch in the other hand.

"Thanks" I say as I then get one arm.

"It's fine. So you want to spend the day with me and Sean?" Summer asks.

"Well I don't think Sean wants to see me around mocking him all day. However I already arranged we would go see Chris dad. His mums grave got vandilised yesterday and Chris asked if I'd go see his dad with him. He thinks it will help his dad cheer up" I say as Summer helps me finish doing the jump suit. Thankfully it buttons up at the front so I don't have reach round the back.

"Well if anyone can cheer them up its you and Emma" Summer says.

"I don't know, you don't think it should be just a family thing?" I ask.

"I think if you and Chris are going to be together your become part of his family as well. If Chris didn't want you there and he didn't think Steve would want you there then he wouldn't of asked you" Summer says.

"Your right. Maybe I'm just over thinking things. Plus it's all new to me and I'm over thinking everything" I say.

"Here let me do your hair" Summer says as we walk out the closet.

"Okay" I say heading for the dresser.

"I think you do over think things. Just go with the flow and don't think. Just do things and you never know you could be surpised" Summer says as she start brushing my hair.

KNOCK KNOCK

"Come in" Summer says

"Hey, just wondering if you had foundation I could borrow" Katy says walking in.

Summer just laughs "Sure but you can do Lisas make up while I do her hair first" Summer says

"Sean won't be happy if he walks out and sees us all here" I say laughing.

"Don't worry about Sean he will survive if he has any sense to wear a towel" Summer says laughing

"Now this could be funny and more reason to tease that brother back for once" I say smiling.

"Okay what look you want to go for?" Katy says.

"Surpise me" I say

"close your eyes then" Katy says

"Make sure it matches this outfit" I say.

"I will" Michelle says

"Also make it quick Chris is waiting for me" I say.

"Rule number one. Us women are always late getting ready. How else can we look so perfect for our men" Summer says.

"Yes and if they get angry don't worry your look so hot that there melted already then all you have to do is smile a innocent smile while fluttering your eye lashes. Then you go and kiss them so they can't be angry anymore. There instantly forget and forgive you" Katy says.

"Failing that later on just tell them there on a promise later on" Summer says.

"Okay thanks for the tips" I say.

"You two are teaching my baby sitter all these tricks. Damn I'd like to say I feel sorry for Chris but actually keep going I will feel better knowing she has Chris wrapped around her finger. But Lisa your still to young to make baby's" Sean says.

"I already have a baby" I say laughing

"That was different. Your to young" Sean says

"Go get dressed otherwise your be to young for it forever" Summer says

"You wouldn't dare" Sean says.

"Try me love" Summer says

"That's lesson number two. Always have your fellow females back" Katy says.

"Okay enough lessons for today. Just make me look beautiful for once" I say.

"You are beautiful!" Sean shouts out from the closet.

"Your don't count you have to say that your my brother" I say.

"Okay how about a bet then" Sean shouts out.

"What's your game" I ask.

"If Chris says your beautiful before you leave here then you can't doubt yourself ever again. If he doesn't then I shall hire someone to make you feel beautiful everyday doing your make up" Sean says

"Deal but don't worry about hiring someone just send me the make up" I say.

"Deal" Sean shouts out.

CHRIS POV

I waited outside of Lisas bedroom. After the early wake up call I figured it was more respectful incase Lisas brothers came by or even Emma.

However it was now 9:20am and my feet ached. What took a women so long I wondered.

At first I wondered if I'd scared her off but then I thought I'd of been kicked out by now if that was the case.

"Chris Where's mummy?" Emma asks walking up to me.

"She went to see aunty Summer about some clothes" I say.

"Hmm, uncle Ryan said I have to find mummy and tell her she looks beautiful because she told uncle Sean she is ugly. But I think uncle Ryan got confused on where mummy is" Emma says.

"Well mummy said she will come back to here room to get some bits once she is dressed. How about I wait with you" I say.

"Okay. Do you think my mummy is pretty?" Emma asks.

"I think your mummy is very very pretty" I say.

"Yeah I think mummy is pretty as well" Emma says and I can see her little head is ticking over with thoughts.

"I should buy mummy some flowers or draw her a picture to make mummy happy" Emma says.

"Okay how about we tag team that" I say

"What's tag team?" Emma asks.

"It's where we work together to make something happen" I say.

"Okay" Emma says

"How about I buy the flowers and you draw the picture" I say

"Yes, but I need time to draw the pictures" Emma says.

"Then you draw the pictures. Once there done let me know and I will buy the flowers. How about you give me a code word when your done so mummy won't know" I say.

"What's a code word?" Emma asks.

"Well when your done you can tell me any word and that will mean it's done for example crumbles" I say.

"How about glitter? I like glitter" Emma says.

"Okay glitter it is then" I say

"How long do you think mummy will take because I need to start the pictures. And uncle luke is making me breakfast" Emma asks.

"I don't know" I say honestly.

"You want to sing a song with me?" Emma asks.

"What song is that?" I ask

"The gummy bear song" Emma says.

"Wow you know the gummy bear song. I remember that when I was younger. Good choice. Let me get it up on my phone so we can listen to it while we wait and sing along" I say pulling my phone out my pocket to search the song.

"Yeah mummy showed me the gummy bear song" Emma says then song kicks in.

We both start to sing and dance to the song in the landing. Emma if in full swing as dancing before she asks me "to pick her up and swing her around" . So I do as she asks. As I spin us around I stop dead I my tracks as I see Lisa comes into view with Summer and Katy. Lisas hair is braided to the side while her make up just makes her eyes looking smoking hot. Her lips a deep red lipstick that makes me want to kiss them again. Her legs looks might fine in that jump suit. While her figure fits it perfectly. Damn hit I think to myself.

"Wow mummy you looks really beautiful" Emma says.

"Yeah your mummy definitely looks beautiful" I say to Emma.

"Sean King" Lisa shouts.

"He already said it didn't he?" Sean shouts coming from down the landing.

"What did you do to make me lose the bet?" Lisa shouts.

"I had Ryan get Emma to call you beautiful in front of Chris it's not my fault if Chris also said it" Sean says running up the landing laughing.

"What did you lose?" I ask confused

"My dear sister isn't allowed to call herself ugly no more" Sean says and Summer and Katy just smile.

"Well played however I didn't need to be coached into saying Lisa was beautiful she is always beautiful" I say

"See told you" Sean says to Lisa.

"Can I have breakfast now?" Emma asks.

"Yes" Summer says laughing.

"I can take Emma if you want" Katy says.

"It's okay" I say as the song finishes.

"Lets go have breakfast. Sean is making pancakes" Lisa says

"Don't mind them there just being your classic siblings today" Summer says

"Sean doesn't like it because I walked in on him doing something that I said would break poor Summer" Lisa says and I can't help laughing

"You want pancakes or not telling everyone my love life?" Sean says.

"Uncle Sean what did you do?" Emma says and Sean goes red while the women laugh

"I was showing aunty Summer a wrestling move that nick showed me" Sean says.

"Nick showed you that?" Summer says laughing.

"hush. I won't destroy innocence here sweetheart" Sean says

"Okay how about we race all these people down stair?" I say to Emma.

"Yeah. I bet we will win uncle Sean" Emma says.

"Your on" Sean says winking at me.

"Let's go little one" I say as we pass everyone before I break out into a run for the stairs.

"Don't worry Emma uncle Sean will lose for sure he is so slow. Its uncel Ryan you have to worry about" Lisa shouts.

"You have to win Chris" Emma says.

"We will don't worry" I say as I start running down the stairs with a squealing Emma all excited.

"I'm catching up with you Emma" Sean shouts.

"No uncle Sean your so slow you won't win us" Emma shouts back at him as we reach the last set of stairs.

"I don't know Emma when I catch you even Chris can't save you from the tickle monster" Sean shouts

"Chris will save me he is a policeman you know" Emma shouts back and I can't help laughing.

"Your arrest him won't you Chris" Emma shouts

"Wow wow wow, I don't want to work today. Plus I left my handcuffs at work unless you have a spare pair" I say as reach the bottom.

"We won" Emma shouts as I put her on the floor.

"Ha Chris left you, you better run before I get you" Sean shouts nearing us and I laugh as Emma starts running screaming "uncle Ryan save me from uncle Sean".

"Good save up there" Sean says to me.

"I was just saving Emma's ears. Otherwise I'd of laughed with amusement" I say

"To be fair I wasn't embrassed. If anything I was annoyed the moment was ruined and Lisa was the one embrassed covering her eyes screaming for us to cover up and for me to stop breaking summer with that postion. But then she threatened to walk around in her underwear if I didn't let her use Summers clothes and then the big brother routine kicked in. Then I ears dropped to see if I could figure out what's going on with Lisa and how she seems to be with getting into a relationship and well I was sad to discover she still feels ugly. So I made the bet and she lost. She only brought up walking in on us to cover up her own insecurity" Sean says.

"I don't get it she always looks amazing though" I say.

"Yeah but she feels tarnished not worthy to be loved by anyone not even you still even though she secretly must have fallen in love with you to risk getting into a relationship, so just look after her for us and maybe you can make her feel beautiful again" Sean says.

"I will tell her everyday until she believes it of I have to" I say.

"Come on me and Ryan will show you how to make Lisas pancakes. Trust me it will serve you well one day when you find her upset" Sean says.

"Cooking lesson here we come" I say as me and Sean then head for the kitchen.
