Thanks Again here is chapter 3:

Chapter 3:

Angelo woke with a very sore back

‘Gez where do I fall asleep’ Angelo mumbled under his breath.

‘Daddy, daddy’ Tom said running to Angelo

‘Yes mate’

‘Can you make me some breakfast please?’ Tom pleaded.

‘Yeah mate’ Angelo began to rise up from the floor and make his way down stairs behind Tom.

‘Hey mum can Xavier come over tonight’ Ruby asked as Charlie ate her toast.

‘Yeah sure, I wont be home but Leah will’

‘Ok, Thanks mum’ Ruby said kissing Charlie’s head.

‘Bye have fun at school’ Charlie said as the doorbell started ringing severely.

‘I’ll get that’ Ruby smiled. ‘Hey Xavier’ Ruby smiled.

‘Hey I was wondering if you wanted to get a juice before school?’ Xavier asked.

‘Yeah I’ll have to get some money off Charlie, but it should be fine’ Ruby laughed.

‘Charlie Charlie’ Ruby called out.

‘Yes Ruby?’ Charlie questioned.

‘Can I have some money please?’ Ruby pleaded.

‘Why?’ Charlie asked with concern.

‘Because Xav wants to get a drink before school’

‘But shouldn’t the guy buy the drink?’ Charlie laughed.

‘Yeah, but..’

‘No Buts’ Charlie cut in.

‘It’s my turn to buy the drinks’ Ruby said bowing her head.

‘OK’ Charlie said rummaging through her wallet.

‘Here’ Charlie said placing $10 in Ruby’s hand’

‘Thank you’ Ruby mouthed.

Charlie smiled to herself

‘Morning’ Nick smiled.

‘Morning’ Charlie kissed Nick

‘I got to go to work, but see you this arvo’

‘Bye Nick’.

‘So you wanna go to that new juice bar?’ Xavier asked squeezing Ruby’s hand.

‘Yeah and its called Brax’s Juices Xav’ Ruby laughed giving him a small kiss on the hand.

‘How about we wag school today’ Xavier asked.

‘NO, do you know how much trouble you’ll get into if we do that’ Ruby bellowed.

‘Ok I was only asking’ Xavier moaned.

‘It’s ok, we’ll get our drinks and go to school’.

Angelo was heavily working on some paperwork to even notice Charlie had come into work and started to help him with the paperwork.

‘Morning’ Charlie smiled.

‘Morning’ Angelo said slightly excited Charlie was talking to him.

‘So I was wondering do you want to come and help me on a case?’ Charlie asked.

‘Yes, I mean yeah sure. It should be fun’ Angelo laughed.

‘Well I am leaving now, so you coming?’ Charlie asked.

Angelo dropped his pen, grabbed his phone and wallet and left the station with Charlie. The whole car ride was quite with neither person making a sound.

‘Charlie where we going?’ Angelo asked.

‘You’ll see’ Charlie smiled.

Charlie pulled up behind a bush ‘We’re going to watch this Brax guy, something is not right about him’ Charlie said with concern in her voice.

‘OK’ Angelo said quietly, slightly sliding himself down the seat.

Charlie watched Brax so carefully watching his every movement as he handed drinks to everyone that stopped by his store.

‘Angelo, Angelo’ Charlie said waking him up every so slightly.

‘What?’ he asked sitting back up.

‘Can you buy a juice please?’ Charlie asked

‘Yeah but why?’ he asked tentatively

‘Because I want to see what he does to the juices’ Charlie smiled.

‘OK, do you want one too?’ Angelo asked fumbling with his wallet.

‘Yes thank you, that’ll be great’

Angelo made his way over to the little corner shop, Charlie watched him as he walked into the store. His wallet was sitting next to her, she was curious and opened it. A photo fell out as she opened his wallet; it was a photo of a little boy and Angelo.

‘Brothers’ Charlie whispered.

Another two photos fell out, Charlie picked them up one was of her and Angelo on their first date seven years ago and the other was of her, Ruby and Angelo just after they moved in together, a lone tear fell down her face.

‘Two OJs please’ Angelo smiled handing Brax $10.

‘That’s $6 thank you’ Brax cheekily grinned.

‘Business booming?’ Angelo asked

‘Yeah it’s going great’ Brax laughed handing Angelo his change.

‘Well see ya later mate’ Angelo said ‘Keep the change’

‘You too mate’ Brax said as he gave a small wave to Angelo.

Angelo walked out of the store and headed back to the car, Charlie raised her head as soon as she saw Angelo coming back.

‘Hey one orange juice’ Angelo smiled

‘Thanks’ Charlie said hiding her tears.

‘Hey, what’s wrong?’ Angelo said patting Charlie on the back as he watched a tear splash off the top of the juice lid.

Liking the comments heres number four:

Chapter 4:

‘Xavier you know we can’t skip school, I have already told you’

‘I know, it’s just your so beautiful I would skip school to see you’ Xavier said.

Ruby smiled ‘ Oh Xav I love you so much’ Giving him a kiss.

‘I love you too’ he smiled kissing him back.

They continued to kiss on the sand not knowing what was going to happen next.

‘Charlie?’ Angelo questioned, using his thumb to bring her face back up to face his.

‘What?’ Charlie demanded.

‘Look you’re upset, what’s wrong?’

‘This’ Charlie said holding the photo as she trailed off.

‘Oh’ Angelo mumbled.

‘Yeah oh’

‘Look after we broke up, I couldn’t handle so I always kept these photo’s to remind me that I was once the luckiest man in the world, but hey it looks like Nick is now’ Angelo smiled.

‘And this, you have a cute little brother’ Charlie said holding the other photo you never told me about.

‘Oh no he is not my brother’ Angelo giggled.

‘You look alike’ Charlie said not laughing.

‘His my son ok, he is five now and I love him so much’ Angelo said placing his head in his hands.

‘I’m sorry I didn’t know, ok’ Charlie wimped at Angelo’s comment.

‘Sorry, it’s just we’re having trouble at home and Tom and I aren’t coping very well’

‘Hey hey, I raised Ruby I should be able to help you’ Charlie said patting Angelo’s back.

‘I’ll think about it’ Angelo smiled.

‘Let’s get out of here aye’ Charlie smiled.

‘Yeah, the station?’

‘Yes’ Charlie smiled.

Xavier smiled down at Ruby as he tucked a loose strand of hair behind her face ‘You’re so beautiful and I love you so much’

‘Xavier I love you too’

‘So you realize you spent a whole day with me’ Xavier smiled.

‘What, its past 3pm?’ Ruby asked sitting up.

‘Yeah’ Xavier smiled.

‘Xavier!’ Ruby exclaimed.

‘Oh’ Said Xavier

‘Oh’ Ruby replied.

Angelo drove the police car down by the beach and parked it by the side of the road.

I am just going to the toilet, ok’ Angelo said getting out of the car.

‘The orange juice getting to you?’ Charlie laughed.

‘Yeah something like that’ Angelo replied.

Charlie watched as he walked towards the building, she remembered when they were in love and they shared practically everything and they had the best relationship, now all that had changed, both of them had moved on.

As Angelo walked towards the toilet he spotted something, which caused him to run back to the car.

‘Wow, you were quick’ Charlie smiled fastening her seatbelt.

‘Um no I haven’t been yet, I was going when I spotted Ruby on the beach’

‘What’ Charlie said ripping her seatbelt off.

‘Yeah just over there’ Angelo pointed while holding his pants.

Charlie looked down at Angelo’s pants ‘GO, I’ve got it’ she smiled.

‘Ok’ Angelo said with as little breathe as he had.

Charlie smiled at him before running down to the beach to spy on Ruby, it had been around 2 minutes

‘Done’ Angelo said scaring Charlie.

‘Oh god Angelo’ Charlie said holding her heart.

‘He he’ Angelo laughed.

‘It’s not funny’ Charlie laughed at him.

‘Look’ Angelo said pointing to Ruby.

‘Ruby’ Charlie yelled running down the beach.

‘Charlie wait’ Angelo trailed off watching her

Thank you two chapters will be coming tonight because it's what i have got so far:

chapter five:

‘Ruby, come back now’ Charlie yelled as Ruby ran down the beach.

‘Charlie’ Charlie yelled, chasing after her,

‘Shut up Angelo, this has nothing to do with you’ Charlie snapped.

Angelo stood in silence for a little while before catching his breath, he than proceeded to chase after Charlie, who was now half way down the beach chasing after Ruby.

‘Get here now’ Charlie screamed.

‘No, I don’t have to and I don’t like you’ Ruby screamed. A tear trickled down Charlie’s face.

‘Maybe we should go back’ Xavier said.

‘NO’ Ruby retorted.

Angelo finally caught up to Charlie who now was in tears.

‘Hey, what’s wrong?’ Angelo asked.

‘Nothing’

‘That’s not nothing’ Angelo said pointing to her shirt that was wet.

‘Ruby hates me’ Charlie whimpered

‘No she doesn’t’ Angelo said taking Charlie in his arms, she didn’t struggle or anything. She just took Angelo’s comfort; he was there when Ruby found out that she was Charlie’s daughter. He was there for everything.

‘Ruby babe, we should go back’

‘No ok we can’t, can I stay at your house tonight?’

‘Yeah sure’ Xavier smiled.

‘I love you’ Ruby replied.

‘I love you’

Ruby snuggled into Xavier, he wrapped his arms around her, kissing her head.

‘She does hate me’ Charlie screamed, fighting her tears back.

‘She doesn’t ok, she loves you’

‘How do you know that?’ Charlie asked.

‘We used to live together’ Angelo smiled.

‘That’s cheating’ Charlie laughed.

‘No it’s not, look sometimes I think Tom hates me’

‘He’s your son though’

‘Ruby’s your daughter’

‘Can you please tell me about Tom?’

‘Um yeah, well after I left, I met a girl named Abby, we fell in love got married than she fell pregnant with Tom. Than after Tom was born, she um’ Angelo said.

‘Run away?’ Charlie asked.

‘No died it a tragic car accident 4 car impact all killed’ Angelo replied.

‘Oh Angelo’

‘It’s alright’ Angelo said looking at his watch.

‘It’s not’

‘Look I got to go and pick up Tom, but good luck with Ruby’

‘Thanks Angelo’

‘Bye’

Bye’

‘Daddy’ Tom said running towards him.

‘Hey mate’ Angelo said picking Tom up.

‘Look what I made’

‘Wow mate, we’ll put that on the fridge’

‘No, my room’ Tom smiled.

‘OK, lets go home and have dinner’

‘No, Pizza’

‘Mate no’

‘But Dad’

‘Don’t but dad me’

‘Your not fair’

‘I am I’m just saying’

‘Pizza’ Tom said pulling away from Angelo.

‘Tom no, lets just go home please’

‘No’ Tom said running out of the child care.

‘Hey’ Nick smiled, kissing Charlie

‘Hey babe’

‘Good day at work?’

‘Yeah why?’

‘No reason’

‘Nick there is a reason, your smiling’ Charlie said kissing him.

‘Well I was thinking that maybe we could have some private time?’

‘Sure why not’ Charlie smiled once more before kissing Nick again.

Charlie laid in her bed looking up to the ceiling, Nick was kissing her neck,

‘Crap’ Charlie said sitting up.

‘What?’

‘Ruby she hasn’t come home’

‘She’s just being a teenager’

‘I know, I am going to call Xavier’

‘Charlie wait’ Nick said scrambling to his feet.

Charlie dialed Xavier’s number.

Xavier’s phone started

‘Hello’

‘Hey Xavier it’s Charlie, where is Ruby?’

‘I have no idea’

‘Ok if you find out where she is, send her home’

‘Ok I will’

Xavier hung up.

‘Was that Charlie?’ Asked Ruby

‘Yeah babe it was’

‘What did she want?’

‘Where you were’

‘You serious’

‘Yeah’

‘Why can’t she just back off’ Ruby yelled

‘I don’t know, but she is worried about you’

‘I know, I know’ Ruby mumbled.

‘Well how about you go home before she sends the police helicopter out’

‘Tom come back’

‘No daddy you’re very mean’

‘I am not’

‘Yes you are and I don’t like you anymore’

‘Of course you do’

‘NO, go away’

‘Tom what’s wrong?’ Angelo asked now having Tom in his arms.

‘Why do I only have one parent and every one else at Kindy have two?’

‘Mate because you’re a special child’

‘No I am not, I want a mummy’

‘I can’t give you that, but daddy knows someone who is just a mummy’

‘Really’

‘Yeah, I can call her’ Angelo said pulling out his phone.

‘Please’ Tom pleaded. ‘Then can we get pizza?’

‘Yes’

‘Thank you’ Tom whispered as Angelo dialed Charlie on his phone.
