The Cheating Millionaire

Chapter 52 Family's unite for Christmas fun

SEAN'S POV

After Summer ate her breakfast she had a quick wash and got changed into grey leggings with a cream polo neck jumper. She looked super cute but abit pale still. However she insisted she feels alot better and wanted to come downstairs. So we are now sat in the front room watching bad Santa with Ryan, luke, Lisa and Simon. Sandy and my mum went shopping while Kenny and my dad are playing chess at the kitchen table.

Summer is also feeding Skylar her bottle while cuddled up to not Ryan for once.

My queen isn't it time for your painkiller Ryan suddenly asks.

Thats right your due more paracetamol Lisa says.

How do you all know when I'm due my medication Summer asks.

Because your mum told us all this morning luke says.

Oh Summer says.

Okay I will grab them for you since your feeding Skylar Simon says.

Thanks Summer says.

You want me to take over feeding Skylar I ask summer.

No just steady the bottle while quickly take the painkillers that way I will have a free hand Summer says.

Alright I can do that I say, glad Summer is actually going to take them now and not after seeing to Skylar.

Simon then walks back in with the painkillers in his hand with a bottle of water in the other. I quickly take a hold. Of Skylars bottle while summer quickly takes the tablets popping them in her mouth before the. Quickly grabbing the open bottle of water and washing the tablets down.

Thanks Simon, summer says handing him the bottle of water back.

Your welcome Simon says as Summer takes ahold of Skylars milk bottle again.

Thanks Summer then says to me.

No need to thank me it's what I'm ment to do help you look after our daughter I say before kissing Summer on the forehead.

Alright shh now your meds are taken let's finish watching the film Lisa says.

With that we all continue to watch the film in silence. Half a hour later I notice Lisa is starting to fall asleep.

Pst Ryan I say.

He looks at me say what.

Shh, I point to Lisa

Ooo he says making a ooo shape with his mouth.

Grab Lisa a blanket she is clearly tired she had a rough night last night mum told me I say.

Enougher nightmare he asks.

Yeah you knew she was having nightmares but didn't tell me I ask.

I figured you knew he says shrugging his shoulders before walking out the room to grab a blanket.

Lisa is having nightmares Summer whispers to me.

Yeah ever since the attack I say.

If I knew that I wouldnt of let her sleep alone at mine I'd of stayed with her Summer whispers.

I know me to I say feeling guilty.

Hey, don't blame yourself Summer whispers.

I don't i Only blame the animal who made Lisa become scared and fragile I whisper back.

Ryan then walks back in and covers Lisa with her quilt.

Hopefully she won't wake up just yet and has a olent sleep Ryan says looking worried about Lisa.

I haven't heard her cry in her sleep since she came back from Summers though luke says.

That's because she has been going and climbing into bed with mum and dad mum told me early hours of this morning I say.

Is that why you couldn't sleep and came to get a drink Summer asks me.

No, I generally needed a drink I say smiling at Summer.

I feel bad for Lisa Simon says.

Is that why you said you would share your secret Christmas cake recipe with Lisa Summer asks.

Yes because she generally loved baking I figured get Lisa to help do some more baking while I'm here might help bring Lisa some comfort Simon says.

In that case I'm up for baking when when Lisa wakes up Ryan says.

Me to say luke squeezing Ryan's hand.

I will leave that you lot I'm going to make sure Summer and Skylar are okay I say.

I feel alot better but I think I will still have a lazy day Summer says.

Don't worry I will still share my secret recipe with you also Simon says to Summer.

You better Summer says.

I will I promised I would and I will just focus on getting better for Christmas Simon says.

I can't believe how much you and Lisa have been through Ryan says to Summer.

Don't worry next year will be our year summer says.

I hope so my queen Ryan says.

SUMMERS POV

once Lisa woke up Ryan, luke and Simon talked Lisa into baking up a storm in the kitchen. Tom and my dad decided to come join me Sean in the front room while my mum and Karen happened to still be out shopping. We are currently watching Christmas wishes movie. But I can feel my ear ache coming back. Skylar is asleep in the mosebasket.

Pumpkin are you okay my dad ask looking at me with concern.

The pain is coming back again but i not long took some more painkillers and the antibiotics I'm sure they will kick in soon I say.

I could tell you got that look that screams your in pain he says looking worried.

How can you tell Sean asks

Her eyes give it away they always have since she was a small child my dad says.

Thanks Tom I say as Sean helps me cover myself with it.

Tom then turns the TV down slightly.

Does that help he asks.

Yes thanks Tom I say.

If it gets to much then go get some sleep it always helps you to sleep away pain my dad says.

You want to go to bed Sean asks.

No, I'm enjoying the movie plus its not to bad atm it's bareable I'm sure the painkillers will kick in again soon I say.

Okay Sean says while running his fingers up and down my arm under the quilt.

Just then we hear Karen shouting we are pack, can someone help us with the bags.

I go to sit up to help, but Sean tightens his grip on my arm.

Not you he says looking at me with his eyebrows frowning and a stern don't mess with me look.

Im coming Tom shouts back.

I will come and help you mu dad says to Tom.

See there's no need for you to go Sean says to me as I lay back down resting my head against his body again.

Omg how much stuff did you buy? I hear my dad ask.

Hey its only Christmas once year I hear my mum say back.

Yes, plus it's Skylars first Christmas so I want it to be extra big and special Karen says.

Sounds like they brought alot I say.

It's fine just rest Sean says.

I look at the Christmas tree and enjoy taking in it's beauty the lights are on and it makes the front room look so cosy with the winter night sky falling outside.

If I didn't feel rough right now I'd say this moment was a perfect chriatmas moment I think to myself.

Hey sweetie how are you feeling my mum asks popping her head through the door.

A little rough the pain started to come back but I'm hoping the painkillers take it away again soon I say.

Okay, well you just rest if you need us we will be in the kitchen putting the food away my mum says before disappearing again.

And that's when Skylar decides to wake up. I go to get up by Sean says no let me.

Okay but pass her over I say.

As Sean passes her over I hear luke shouting from the kitchen, "don't worry I'm making a bottle" I can't help smiling at that.

Well that's one less thing for me to do Sean says before saying shouting back thanks. Which makes me wince with pain in my ear.

Omg I'm sorry I just didn't think Sean says sitting down next to me while passing me Skylar.

It's okay I know you didn't do it on purpose I say.

Sean kisses me on the forehead while I lean back against him. Cuddling Skylar who is still crying.

Shh, shh, shh, I try to sooth Skylar but she isn't happy about waiting for this bottle.

Your impatient little one my dad says walking into the front room.

She will be alright once she has her bottle I say.

I know, would you like me to take Skylar and walk around to settle her until the comes? My dad offers

It's alright I'm here now with the bottle luke say coming in and handing it to me.

Thanks I say smiling at both my dad and luke.

It's okay, if you need anything else just let me know we have nearly finished our baking spree luke says.

Yes and we decided to order in pizzas Lisa says walking in the front at that moment.

Okay thanks I say again.

How come we are having pizzas Sean asks.

Because it's getting late and the kitchen still needs cleaning up so dad suggested pizzas infact he sent me to find out what you all would like Lisa says.

I'm good with anything my dad says.

I will have a meat one please Sean says.

What about you Summer Lisa asks.

A vegetarian one please.

And you luke Lisa asks.

I will have the same as Ryan he says.

With that Lisa dashes back to the kitchen.

I better go help with the clean up and finishing the baking luke says.

Okay Sean says.

I'm going to hide in here my dad say taking seat.

I don't blame you it sounds little crazy in the kitchen I say.

Kenny ballard you better get your backside back in here my mum yells from the kitchen.

Looks like I can't hide from your mum my dad says standing up and walks out the room looking afraid of what he is about to walk into.

I never thought I'd see your dad afraid Sean says with amusement in his voice.

Only my mum can frighten my dad but there love conquers through everything I say.

SEAN'S POV

By the time Summer had finished feeding and winding Skylar, our parents had come and joined us in the front room. Just in time for Skylar to stink out the room with a nappy explosion.

Oh wow I'm um going to see if they need a hand in the kitchen my dad says.

I will join you Kenny says.

My mum and Sandy just laughed at them while Summer looked on amused.

Oh come on your ment to help a man out I laugh as they dash out the room.

Okay princess let's get you cleaned up I say going to walk out the room.

Don't worry, I will help you my mum says still laughing at the traitors who wouldn't suddenly like to clean a kitchen over helping clean a tiny baby.

Thanks mum I say.

It's alright, come let's give little stinky bum a bath she says.

I would come help but I will keep Summer company Sandy says.

No its fine, its best one of us women stay since the grandads seem scared of a little person Summer might fully freighten them my mum says a little to loud and I see Summer wince at the noise.

Sorry sweetie, I was just taking a dig and the old men my mum said to summer while I just looked on in amusement.

I heard that I heard my dad shout from the kitchen.

With that me and my mum left the front room. My mum said you were ment to hear that to my dad while we were in the in hallway, my dad faked a hurt look from the kitchen door before giving my mum a cheeky wink.

Alright I've a baby to see to and she is to young to learn flirting from her grandad I say laughing while walking off.

Okay I'm coming just ignore your father I do my mum says laughing while following me.

We made quick work of bathing Skylar since she really didn't like bathtime today she screamed the whole house down, that even Lisa and my dad came to see what they could do to help. That did make me laugh since my dad was the first one to run away from a stinky nappy. We were lucky enough to have Skylar all clean and dressed as well as asleep before the pizzas arrived.

We all sat watching eastenders while pigging out on pizza.

You know Stacey is pregnant in real life they, have done a good job her pregnancy this time around my mum says.

Is she Sandy replys seeming generally surpised by the news.

What is it with women obbessed with pregnant women Simon asks no one in peritcular.

Hey take that back I never said anything Lisa says.

Ha, look at you bothl arguing Summer say's

Sort your women out Lisa says to me.

No need Summer can handle herself perfectly fine I say poking my tongue out at Lisa.

All right all of you enough I'm trying to watch this my dad says, which leads to me and Ryan laughing because before he retired he hated all soap dramas, now he seems into them all.

Summer would you like me and Tom to look after Skylar tonight? Do you can get some more rest my mum asks.

Actually mum I'm going to help Summer tonight as she misses the night feeds, but if summer is okay with it maybe enougher night you can watch Skylar over night I say.

How about tomorrow night, that way you have a chance to have a night with Skylar but Sean is right I'm really missing the night cuddles with Skylar after being apart the past two nights, Summer says.

Okay, I look forward to having Skylar over night tomorrow night but if you need any help during tonight you can come wake us my mum offers.

Yeah and me and your mother also if needed Kenny says.

Thanks everyone, actually I'm just going to take my next lot of painkillers and antibiotics does anyone want a drink while I'm heading to kitchen anyway, Summer asks.

No, it's okay I will grab it for you I say to Summer.

In that case mines a beer Ryan says.

Me to luke chimes in.

Anyone else? I ask.

I will join them for a beer also Simon says.

Hot chocolate please Lisa asks with a cheesy grin.

Hey you want a cocktail Sandy my mum asks Sandy.

Sure I think we deserve it after all that shopping Sandy says.

In that case beer Kenny? My dad asks.

Sounds good to me Kenny says.

Looks like a night for drinking I say.

Your not drinking you got to look after Summer and Skylar my mum says.

I wasn't going to anyway I say before heading to the kitchen to sort everyone's drinks, however I sorted Summers water and meds first since they were more important.
