Unexpected

part 7

Haileys POV

Its 7am and the alarm goes off. " Morning Jay. " I mutter still half asleep. " morning. " Jay says wide awake. " how long you been awake for? " I ask " since we had to get up for Dhalia, I couldn't sleep. I was worried if she was going to start crying again. " Jay says red eyed from tiredness. " Awww Jay. " I smile at how much he cares about Dhalia.

" the social worker is coming at ten. I need to clean the apartment and get Dhalia ready. Can you make breakfast? " I ask Jay who is almost asleep. " Sure thing Hails. " Jay yawns. We both get up and Jay makes breakfast whilst I wake Dhalia. " Dhalia sweetie wake up. " I say shaking her little body. " I'm awake. " she replies sitting up, her hair all over her face. " Come on Jay's making breakfast. " I say helping Dhalia down from the bed that's way to big for her.

We walk into the kitchen were Jay is buttering a slice of toast for each of us.
" morning Dhalia. " Jay says turning round and handing a plate with toast on to her. " Morning. " she replies taking the plate and going to the table. " thanks Jay. " I say taking my plate off him and going to sit down.

" Dhalia, I need to tell you something okay. " I say calmly. " Ok " she replies with a mouthful of toast. " Theres a lady coming today to make sure it's okay for you to live with me. She also needs to tell you some news about your mum okay? " I say trying not to scare her. " Okay, can I have some juice? " Dhalia asks innocently. Jay and I look at each other debating whether to tell her more but decide not to. " of course, I'll get it. " Jay says standing up to go to the kitchen. Dhalia and I sit there in silence till Jay comes back with her juice. " Thanks Jay. " Dhalia says already drinking.

" I'm going to get dressed I'll be back soon. " I say standing up and taking mine and Jay's dishes to the sink. " Okay, thanks. " Jay replies.

Jay's POV

Whilst hailey is getting dressed I wash the dishes with a helping hand from Dhalia. " Jay, I want to wash too! " Dhalia says tugging at my jeans. " Alright, let me get you a chair. " I put the stuff back in the sick and grab and chair for Dhalia to stand on. " Alright here you go. " I say placing the chair in front of the sink. Dhalia stands on the chair and starts washing the plates. " Look Jay, I'm like you now! " Dhalia says proudly. " Yes you are. Great job! " I say drying off what Dhalia has washed.

Just as we have finished, hailey comes back in fresh faced, dressed in a pair of jeans and dark purple top. " Hey, Dahlia washed the dishes for you. " I say messing Dhalias hair up. " You put the poor kid to work! " Hailey says laughing. " I wanted to Hailey! " Dhalia grins proud of herself. " Well done kiddo. I didnt think Jay would acutally put you to work. " I laughes.

Haileys POV

After we joked around for a bit i needed to Dhalia ready so I could clean the apartment before Kara comes. " Okay enough teasing for one morning, I need to get you dressed. " I say going to scoop Dhalia up so shes dangling upside down. " Hailey, hailey put me down! " Dhalia laughs in hysterics. " I would but I cant without dropping you on your head. " I laugh but being serious at the same time. Jay comes running over to help laughing. " there you go kiddo. " Jay laughs putting Dhalia down the right way up. " Thanks Jay. " I say taking Dhalia into her bedroom. " no problemo " Jay replies in a very bad spanish accent.

Dhalia is looking through her draw of brand new clothes changing her mind about which top she wants to wear every two seconds. " Dhalia stick with this butterfly one please. " I begg " Fine. " Dhalia sulks. " I'm going to start cleaning come through when your done. " I say walking out the door.

" Hey Jay can you dust whilst I hover please? " I ask Jay who's just finished gettin dressed. " Sure thing. How long till Kara gets here? " jay asks pulling the duster our the cupboard. " 30 minutes. " I reply switching the hover on. Half way through cleaning the apartment a deadly sounding thud comes from Dhalias room. Jay and I drop everything and go running through.
