"Mum" Ella gently wakes her up "what's up princess" Ariana asks "come with me" she asks. Ariana groans looking at the rim but followed her daughter. Ella shows her, her phone screen.

Ariana runs down the stairs and unlocks the door "in" she says "Ella get a towel" Ariana asks and Ella runs off.

Ella comes back with a towel and Ariana dries Sophia off. "Ella do you mind if Sophia uses some of your clothes" Ariana ask and she shakes her head going to get some.

"I'm sorry Ariana" she sobs "it's okay" Ariana gives her a saddened smile. "I brought some clothes but there wet" she says "it's okay" Ariana tells her.

"Here" Ella says "thank you" She tried to smile. Sophia just sat there "come on let's get you changed" Ariana gives her a smile. "You want a drink" Ariana asks and she nods "I'll go" Ella smiles at her mother.

Ariana gently lifts her top over her head. He eyes could have gone wide but she didn't want to freak out the young girl in front of her. She slides over Ella's top. Sophie starts to freak out as Ariana took off her pants ever so gently "calm down it's okay" Ariana says pulling up the pants.

Ariana gently lifts he hysterical girl into her lap and rocks them backwards and forwards. "We need to talk we don't have to do it now but soon okay" Ariana tells her and she nods.

Ella comes back in and hands Sophia the glass of water. "Sophie I'm guessing you don't want to go school tomorrow" Ariana asks and she shakes her head and Ella pouts "you can have the day off two okay" Ariana suggests making her smile but then make a sad face "Mum I can't" Ella pouts "how come" she ask "I have a test that I can't miss" Ella sighs "okay" Ariana sighs "you still want to stay" Ariana ask and she nods.

"Come on you two let's get you in bed" Ariana suggests and they nod. Ariana sets Sophia down and walks them up to bed.

Ella gets in bed and Sophia clings to her. "You girls going to be okay" Ariana ask and they nod "come and get me if you need anything" Ariana smiles and Ella nods.

Ariana goes and gets back in bed getting warm before falling back to sleep.
