    Leah1982: Hey Greg, sorry I haven’t messaged, busy weekend with the kids. Hope the flat hunting went well xx
     
    Placing the phone back into her pocket, she turned her attention back to the kids. Waving as Ben raced passed her and Emma took a tumble at the opposite end of the rink.
     
    *****
     
    Storming into A&E, Ryan glared at Leah from across the room.
    “What the hell happened?” he shouted at her.
    “Ryan, will you please calm down, she’s fine!” Leah replied, her temper flaring as Ryan seemed to be pointing the finger at her for their daughter getting hurt.
    Emma had been showing off in front of some older kids, showing off that she was a better skater, and became too overconfident and had fallen, landing awkwardly on her left arm and managing to break it. The rink had called an ambulance and Leah and Ben had gone straight to the hospital with Emma. Leah had tried to call Ryan but just went through to his voicemail, so she had left a message explaining what had happened and that she would need someone to fetch her car before the rink shut the gates that evening.
                      Ryan left shortly after with Ben and called a friend to help him fetch Leah’s car, dropping it back to the hospital so Leah and Emma didn’t need to get a cab home. Although Leah could tell he wasn’t in a good mood about it.  Luckily A&E wasn’t very busy and Emma was seen quickly and her arm plastered, so Leah and Emma could leave.
     
                      On the way home Leah pulled into the supermarket, parking as near to the front doors as possible.
                      “Do you need to get a lot mum?” Emma asked, clearly not excited at doing any shopping.
                      “I just need to get some bits for your father. I tell you what; since I’m going to be quick today do you want to stay in the car?”
                      A happy smile spread across Emma’s face. “Thank you, mum, would you grab me a magazine?” Emma asked with a cheeky grin.
                      “Ok but on one condition, you know the rules, no talking to strangers, no getting out of the car, and if anyone tries anything you push the horn and get everyone’s attention,”
                      Emma rolled her eyes at her mother. “Yes mum, you have told me the rules a thousand times!”
     
                      Leah left the car, a nervous feeling in her stomach. She hated leaving the kids alone in the car and probably always would, no matter how old they got.
                      Leah rushed around the supermarket, grabbing a girlie magazine for Emma, a gaming magazine for Ben, beer and nibbles for Ryan for the boxing that night, and she treated herself to some scented candles and bubble bath.
                      Walking to the checkouts, she was completely in a world of her own, the events of the day taking their toll on her.
                     “Leah?”
                      “Oh my god Leah is that you?”
                      Spinning around, at the sound of her voice, the breath caught in Leah’s throat. Standing in front of her, was a reminder of her past, and he had hardly changed over the years; still ridiculously handsome, with short dark brown hair, and a light dusting of stubble across his face.
                      “Greg,” Leah muttered, completely stuck for words, and shocked to be bumping into him in such a setting. Leah suddenly felt very self-conscious and tried smoothing down her top with her hands, aware that she must look awful after the day she had had.
                      “Wow this is mad, I would say what are you doing here, but I guess that is pretty obvious, although I never took you for a gamer.” Greg chuckled motioning to the magazine in her trolley.
