**Maddie’s POV**

“Thanks for babysitting, Fred,” I says, walking into the living room and taking my coat off.

“No problem,” Fred says, jumping to his feet, “how is he?”

“He’s fine,” I sigh, “a bit shaken up, but fine.”

“And George?”

The front door slams and we both wince.

“Furious,” I breathe.

“Who did it?” Fred asks.

“Alithea did,” George snaps, walking in and throwing his coat down.

“Calm down,” I tell him gently.

“I can’t calm down!” he yells, “my daughter nearly killed my son! What about that would be calming?”

I see Fred sneak out with a little wave and I take a few breaths.

“We don’t know what happened,” I reply, “it might’ve been an accident.”

“Not bloody likely!”

“George!” I protest, “she’s our daughter!”
“He’s our son!” George yells, “AND SHE ALMOST KILLED HIM!”
