Brad frowned for a moment, unsure Wills idea would work, before sighing and finishing his drink.
"Off I go..."
He got up from his seat and walked over to Tamika, putting his arms round her waist and his head on her shoulder like he had done earlier. She jumped before realising who it was.
"Oh, hey doll," she said, putting a couple more coins in the slot. "What's up?"
"Well, I was wondering if, um..."
"What, hon?"
"If you'd... Maybe like to... Be my, uh, girlfriend?"
"I'm sorry, could you repeat that please?" Tamika asked.
"Would you be my girlfriend?"

Tamika turned round to face Brad, his facial expression just screamed nerves. She smiled and put her arms around his neck.
"Of course I will!"
She placed a kiss on his lips and cuddled into him.
"Thank God for that!" He laughed, pulling away from the hug.
"Now Brad, quite distracting me from my game or I'll kill you!" She mock threatened.

Brad laughed at her threat and gave her a quick kiss before going back to the table and sitting down grinning.
"Good news then?" Will asked, sipping her coke.
"Yup!" Brad drank some of his orange juice, "You should start a career in matchmaking Will!"

"Nah, it would be boring, besides I don't think I'm that good at it," Will frowned.
She looked over to Tamika who was feeding th machine coins, "Excuse me for one moment, please,"
She got up and walked over to Tamika.
"Mika, if you don't stop you're goona run out of money soon. Besides your boyfriend is sitting over there waiting for you!"
"How did you know he was my-" Tamika started but was interupted.
"I'm a matchmaker," Will grinned, "Now get over there before I smack your bottom!"

"Well, Miss Matchmaker, I have an addiction to the pretty-ness of this machine, and if I don't spend my money on this I will end up playing Monopoly on the internet!"
"Mika, I think you have a gambling problem!" Will laughed.
"It's no problem, I enjoy every minute of it."
"Well anyway, come over to sit with us."
Tamika whimpered at the machine and Will for a moment before giving up and going back to the table. She sat down and leaned back, cuddling into Brad again. Once again she zoned out of the conversation, this time to talk to her aunt.
"Joselie, what did you mean 'mothers instinct'?"
"Tamika, I... I just worded it wrong."
"No you didn't. Stop lying to me."
"Ok then, fine, Tamika, I'm your mother."
Tamika's face dropped.
"Mika?" Asked Will, "What's wrong?"
"My mum... Joselie's my mum."

Will was shell shocked.
"She what?" Will paused dramtically, "How, what how?"
"What? Who's Joselie?" Brad asked.
"Her aunt who now apparantly is her mum. Tamika are you sure about this? Are you sure she's not playign about?"
"She's not Will, she's serious!" Tamika cried out.
"How is that possible?"

"If I'm 15 then she must have had me when she was 14, so she must have given me to Anastacia and Feliks because she was too young to care for me..." Tamika rambled. A few tears had spilled out of her eyes. Brad pulled her closer into a hug.
"Come on now, don't cry."
"Don't cry?! I've just found out my whole life has been a lie and you tell me not to cry!" Tamika snapped.
"Sorry..."
"Don't be... I just, why did she let me live a lie so long? Why didn't she tell me when I went to live with her?"...
Questions that would have to wait to be answered. Tamika cuddled into Brad, burying her head into the curve of his neck.

Will stared at Tamika.
"You should go visit her over christmas or tell her to come here. I'll come with you either way if you wnat me too," Will leaned over and patted tamika on the shoulder.

"She was meant to be coming tomorrow to see how I was getting on but... Will, I don't think I could be around her," Tamika said quietly, breathing shakily. Pathetic, you have the oppurtunity to find out why she lied to you and you won't even go.

"Tamika, stop. Right now and look at me," Will commanded in a dagerous tone.
Tamika knew Will wasn't messing and looked at her.
"Good, now you're going to go and see her tomorrow and I'm coming with you and giving you support but you are not, under any circumstances not going to go!" Will glared at her and Tamika shook her head slowly.
"Good now, what shall we do now?"

Tamika sighed and finished her drink. "I'm going back up to school. I just need to... Sort my head out, or something..."
She bent down to give Brad a hug and a kiss and then gave Will a hug. "I'll see you later guys."

Brad made an odd clicky noise with his tongue as Tamika left the pub, then turned his head back to Will. "And then there were two, so what d'you fancy doing?"
He tapped his fingers against his glass, waiting for Will to reply.
"Should I go after her? Would she do anything to herself? .... This orange juice is off..."

"I don't know m'dear. I think we should follow her lead, it's getting late and I'm tired!" Will stood up and left a tip on the table.

"Righto then," Brad stood up and walked to the door, holding for Will.
"Danke," she smiled as she walked through. They then made their way up to the school. All along the way Brad was windering just what he could do to help Tamika, worried she may do something.
