Niamh sits rather quietly, Niamh looks at Joe nervously then looks down at her phone. "What the hell is wrong? Your so quiet" he whispers as he strokes her knee.
"I've done something stupid" Niamh mutters.
"Like what?" he asks. Joe instantly grabs her wrists and looks at them to see them clear, "God I thought you had done something immensely stupid" Joe says.
"Joe, I'm stressed and all over the place but I'd never do that" she says.
"What have you done now?" He says calmly.
"I eh...called Harry" she stutters.
Joe looks at her "what?" He mumbles.
"He's still in Malaysia, he just said he would explain things to Chloe" Niamh says a little teary eyed.
"Where is he now" Joe mumbles as he takes both her hands.
"I don't know, but I think it was silly, I'm really scared now" she mumbles a tear falling down her face.
"Scared about what huh? I'm with you" he smiles. Niamh smiles a little, "I'm not stupid and I know there's more than just that up with you babe" he says.
"Not here yeah?" She mumbles.
Joe nods, "just know you can tell me anything" he whispers. She gives a little smile and goes to kiss Joe's cheek when someone in the corner of her eye appears at the table.
Joe looks at her as she has seem to have frozen, he looks round also...to see Harry. "Shit!" He hears Niamh mumbles.
Harry taps Chloe on the shoulder, "Happy Birthday princess" he says.
Chloe's mouth drops as she turns around. "I'm here to explain" he says.
"How did you know I was here?" Chloe says in shock.
"Niamh did, but I promise I'm here to explain" he sighs. Chloe looks over at Niamh a little stunned.
"He really does need to explain" Niamh says and Joe nods in agreement.
"I thought you said you hated him" Chloe says.
"He desrves a second chance" Niamh says.
Chloe laughs at her "your so two faced" Chloe says.
"Chlo, Niamh's just looking out for you" Brian says.
"Christ sake I'm old enough to look after myself" Chloe says.
"Dads right Chlo I-" she is cut off by Chloe.
"Shut up you've caused enough mess as it is" Chloe snaps.
"Girls!" Barbara and Brian warn at the same time.
"Chloe that's enough, you'll wake Matthew, now either get Harry a seat and talk it out in a civilised manner or go home!" Barbara says.
"You know what I don't want to talk!" Chloe says as she gets up. "Oh Niamh this is for you" Chloe smirks as she grabs her glass of water and chucks it at Niamh.
"Enjoy your stupid little tea party without me" Chloe shouts.
"Chloe!" Niamh calls as she gets up and chases after her.
"Niamhy there's no point" Barbara says. Niamh doesn't listen as goes after her and manages to catch up with Chloe.
"Look Chloe I know you're hormonal and you can hit kick scream at me all you want but at the end of the day Harry came back for you, if he didn't love you he wouldn't have...just remember that yeah?" Niamh says.
"I told you I didn't want to see him, why are you so ignorant? Some of us don't get the lift style you get! So yeah keep your nose out! In Fact don't talk to me again" Chloe says as she pushes Niamh out her way.
Niamh rolls her eyes and walks away almost bumping into Harry who is slowly but surely following behind Chloe. "She's all yours but don't get killing each other" Niamh says as she heads back to Joe.
"Are you alright?" Joe asks as everyone has started to eat.
"Soaking wet but fine" Niamh says.
"I think I have a spare top with me actually" Niamh says.
"Eat your dinner first" Barbara suggests. "It's only water, it will dry in" Barbara adds.
Niamh nods and quickly checks on Matthew. "Am I really two faced?" she asks openly to everyone at the table.
"No not at all pumpkin" Brian says.
"Ignore Chloe, your only trying to help her out and if she doesn't see that, that's her fault" Barbara says. Niamh nods and carries on eating her dinner.
"She's just hormonal" Brian adds. Niamh just smiles and finishes her dinner.
"Anyone for dessert?" Barbara asks.
"I'm stuffed" Niamh announces.
Joe laughs and smiles at her "I might have something cold" Joe says.
"Actually can we share?" Niamh asks Joe.
"We'll have the sharing ice cream" Joe smiles as he runs his hand along her thigh, Niamh smiles at him.
He kisses her cheek and carries on stroking her thigh. Niamh sits rather quietly, "what's up with everybody tonight? We're all rather quiet" Barbara laugs.
"Oh nothing just one of them days" Niamh smiles.
"Just tired I guess" Niamh says.
Joe looks at her and smiles "I love you" Joe mouths to her.
"I love you too" she smiles as she cuddles into him as she's now freezing because of her damp top.
"aww look at them two Brian" Barbara smiles.
Brian smiles and look at them "probably planning their escape right now" Brian laughs, Niamh looks at him and giggles.
"You watch Bar, we'll end up with Matthew tonight and all we'll hear is them two at it like rabbits" Brian laughs.
Niamh blushes and looks up at Joe awkwardly. "Good idea" Joe mutters against her head and Niamh giggles.
"Well now that you've said...would you mind looking after Matthew?" Joe teases.
"Joe!" Niamh giggles as she hits him playfully.
"Oh don't blush Niamh, it's okay" Barbara laughs.
"Baby number 2?" Brian laughs.
"Most defiantly" Joe teases.
"Matthew's enough thanks" Niamh giggles.
They order their deserts and sit waiting for them. "Aw bless Niamhy's all embaressed" Joe smirks.
"Shut up, your embarrassing because your telling my parents about our sex life" Niamh blushes.
"Well they don't seem to mind" he teases.
"Shush they don't need to know still" Niamh says.
"I'm only joking" he smiles as he kisses her cheek. Their deserts come and they eat them and then head back to the house where Niamh and Joe pack ready for the morning.
All that they can here is Harry and Chloe bickering and it's doing Niamh's head in and it's making Matthew restless. "I'm going to sort it" Niamh says as she can't take it any more.
She walks into Chloe's bedroom, "Right you two" she shouts as it is getting ridiculous.
"Shut the hell up, talk in a bloody calm manner" Niamh shouts.
Chloe laughs "ha your the one shouting" Chloe says.
"I'm only shouting because I'm pissed off with you! My three month old can't sleep because of you to!" Niamh shouts.
"Sit down the both of you and talk it out calmly!" Niamh shouts.
"I'm not leaving until you do" she shouts.
They both sigh and look up at Niamh like naughty school children. "Right come on the both of you need to talk" Niamh says in a raised voice.
Niamh sits down on the floor with her back against the door so they can't get out. "Hurry up" she says. Niamh looks down at her phone, "Matthew is due a feed in... Ten minutes, hurry up" she says.
"Right well I'm sorry Chlo" Harry says.
"Sorry not sorry" Chloe says.
"Chloe! He's trying to make the effort now make it back!" Niamh shouts.
Niamh rolls her eyes as Chloe doesn't know what to say. "Hurry up Chloe, I've had enough" Niamh says.
"Sorry Harry" Chloe mumbles.
"Right thank you, now explain to her Harry" Niamh says.
"Explain what?" Harry says.
Niamh rolls her eyes, "explain who all the girls were" she says.
"Emma is a friend as you know, we've been friends since I was eight, Leanne is your friend and mine too, Bridget is doing the exchange with me. And Rebecca is a a girl my mum knows" Harry explains.
"So why did you tell Joe you was going to leave me?" she asks confused.
"You said 'what were you meant to tell Emma?" she says.
"Emma is going on holiday with me that's why" he says.
"Why didn't you tell me?" she says a little shaken up by the fact Harry was telling the truth all along.
"So what you were just going to say to me, oh yeah Chloe sorry but I have to leave you, I'm going on holiday with a mate so yeah sorry babe but we're over! Is that what you were planning on doing?" Chloe shouts.
"Calm it down Chloe" Niamh says.
Niamh stands back up just incase she needs to step in, Niamh glares at Harry to make sure he says something back.
"I'm sorry" he says.
