Beth looked down at her phone.

BETH: I've gone and said it but I didn't mean it like that!

Beth played with Kelly's wedding ring that she had attached to her neck chain, she kissed it a few times and held it between her lips.
Just then Beth thought she heard Rosie cry so she walked to her room. She was sound asleep. After pulling her blankets up she went back downstairs to Rachel. She was still talking to Geoff.
Rachel covered the mouth piece on her phone.

RACHEL: Geoff isn't happy with you!

BETH: Eh? Why?

RACHEL: I told him everything! He's coming over!

BETH: Rachel! Tell him not to come over. Say I'm going to my bed!

RACHEL: Geoff, there's no point, she's going to bed......... yeah okay! Love you too!

Rachel hung up

BETH: Thanks Rachel, the last thing I needed tonight was a rant from Geoff!

Rachel laughed

RACHEL: You know he's right!

BETH: I know (smiling) Let's get a little bit drunk!

When Kelly arrived home the next morning he found Rachel and Beth sprawled on the couch surrounded by wine bottles. He wasn't happy. Running upstairs he stopped outside Ellie's bedroom door then looked across to Jaden's. He sighed to himself then walked to Rosie's bedroom. Opening the door he saw the little girl beginning to wake up. She smiled at her dad.

  She smiled at her dad
