Morning After...
Chesney rises early before Skinhead...
Not so he can say sorry with a nice cup of tea, that can wait...
Chesney has work to do...
He goes down the stairs and into the wreckage of the sitting room...
Amongst the broken picture frames and bars of soap he spots what he's looking for, Skinheads phone...
He picks it up and goes straight to her messages...
They're all off Aunty Beth...
She must have deleted the ones from Lover Boy in between the punches to the kidneys I gave her last night...
Chez isn't stupid...
He knows not to hit her in the face...
Just so everyone can feel sorry for her and not him...
He pockets the phone...
At least she won't be able to call anyone to grass him up...
Next he finds her purse in the kitchen...
Opens it and takes her bank card and the tenner he gave her from the previous day so she could buy something for tea...
He puts the purse back with just some loose change left...
She won't be going anywhere he sniggers to himself...
He calls up the stairs for Skinhead to get up...
April needs to go to school and the house won't clean it's self...
Besides, Chez wants his breakfast, a man can't go drinking on an empty stomach...
Down comes Skinhead looking battered and bruised...
She try's to not look Chesney in the eyes...
I'm sorry he says but if you hadn't been getting those texts and my tea had been on the table, none of this would have happened...
So in a way it's all your fault...
It's okay Chez she warbles, I'll tidy up, take April to school and then come back to make you a nice full English...
Chesney smiles...
Everything is right with the world and peace has been restored...
She knows who the boss is he thinks to himself, she's learnt her lesson...
