"I didn't know that," he said softly, his voice almost a whisper and she moved from the chair to go and sit beside Bella's bed, his fingers gently pushing her hair from her face. Even though she'd grown she was still so tiny, and yet she was stronger than all of them. Determined, beautiful and very smart for one her age.
"I called out to you, told Eothian to do the same and then Hawken came back.. I didn't know." Gently he stood, careful not to wake Bella and he moved back to the chair he'd been sitting in before.
Slowly Albert licked his lips, suddenly realizing how dry his mouth was. "We'll work something out. Maybe I have her during the week and you take her at the weekends, or visa versa if that's better for you. And longer over the holidays?" Because Albert wouldn't force Fia into something he didn't want, to be in a situation he'd end up hating him for. "I could get an apartment close to you so it's easier?" But he nodded her head, "We'll convince her it's best she comes home. After all she can't see Grandma and Grampa if she doesn't, or have Eothian play with her and Moo."
