Brave - FanFic CHIM/CHERYL COLE

Part 26

Julie's POV

I walked slowly down the steps trying to get my heartbeat to a normal pace. I don't know what's happening, why am I so nervous to speak to Kimberley and Cheryl? I took a deep breath and walked through the office doors finding Kim siting on the office chair with Cheryl on her lap as they browsed the web. I wasn't sure how to start the conversation

"What's up?" Cheryl asked giving her attention to me, but Kim did not acknowledging my presence

"C-can I talk to you guys?" I stuttered nervously

"Course!" Cheryl said sitting up on Kim's lap, Kim still yet to give me attention and I was a little hurt by the way she was acting. I took a seat directly across the desk

"I just want to say I'm sorry" I started looking down at my hands that were placed in my lap

"I know what I did was unacceptable, I also know that there is no excuse for my actions. I should be grateful for you guys to allow me into your home, I know I have abused your trust. And I can see it on your faces, you guys are both disappointed in me.. heck you can't even look at me, it's understandable. I get it. That's all I had to say" I said quickly getting up and wiping my tears as I walked out of the office

"Julie" Kim called out and I stopped in my tracks

"And where do you think you're going" she asked and turned around to be met by a smiling Kimberley

"I'm sorry" I finally let out the awaiting sob and she quickly took me into her arms

"I know you're.. look at me" she said I looked at her as my bottom lip trembled trying to stop myself from crying

"I'm not saying that I wasn't disappointed by your actions, you knew better. But you're my daughter, and I understand you're not perfect. I need you to promise me that you won't do it again" she said making me smile at her choice of words 'my daughter'

"I promise I won't! never again I swear" I said in almost a begging tone so she would believe me. She pulled me closer to her and rubbed my back

"Good because you're grounded for the next two weeks" she said with a cheeky smirk on her face as she tapped my nose

"Two weeks!?" I said out

"Yes two weeks! there are rules in this house Julie! Now go get me your phone" she said seriously

"You can't be serious?" I said with a laugh

"Dead serious" she replied

"Cheryl!!!!" I yelled out going back into the office

"No no don't put us in this" she said putting her hands up in protest

"But Cheryl she's going to take my phone away for 2 whole weeks! how am I supposed to talk to Jake? or even my friends?" I said seriously

"That's the point of being grounded Julie you don't talk to anyone" Kim said

"Aghhhhhhh" I yelled out in frustration going back up to my room slamming the door shut

Kim's POV

"There has to be some rules and guidelines in this house" I told Cheryl

"Babe relax she's a good girl! she doesn't need rules" Cheryl argued

"Oh so her getting high makes her a good girl?" I asked raising my eyebrow

"I've smoked weed before, and if I can remember so have you! everyone's bound to try it. Stop being so tough on her" Cheryl said and I get where she is coming from but I can't help but be extra protective over Julie
