JP's POV
I knew it was a bad idea to hit the pub with everyone. My stomach literally dropped when I saw Robyn and Bianca walk in.
Why couldn't Robyn of just stuck to what we had agreed? I had protected her and now I was watching Lena leaving the pub it was like it was happening in slow motion. Lena looked distraught, broken and humiliated whilst Bianca had a huge smirk on her face.
I run over to Bianca screaming
"WHAT DID YOU SAY TO HER?"
"The truth Jon, I told her what you didn't......that you was engaged to be married to my sister and that she lost your baby" she spats.
HOLY FUCK.....NO NO NO NO THIS WASN'T HAPPENING.......
Robyn is right by my side her face in shock knowing this is all going to kick off
"This has to stop Robyn...you need to make this stop" I scream at Robyn.
As I head out the pub I see a "Castle" cab has pulled away. Was Lena in that cab? I jump in a Castle cab also and ask to be taken to my apartment. I ring Lena it rings but then goes to voicemail I texted her
"Babe we need to talk it isn't how Bianca made it seem - please believe me Lena".
Un read. I text her again
"Please don't walk away from US - Lena I Love you x x "
We are just approaching my apartment when I hear the cab radio and a lady speaking
"Well fellow drivers it's goodnight from me picked up a fare to London.....see you all tomorrow"
FUCK - that had to be Lena's cab? She was fucking off back to London, could I blame her after what she had been told by Bianca no I couldn't. Jesus what was running through Lena's mind right now? Hurt, betrayal I knew it would bring up deep emotions of when she had her abortion. Lena was told I had got Robyn pregnant..... Bianca had painted a picture that me and Robyn was the perfect couple which couldn't be further from the truth.
I ran out the cab and head into my apartment grabbing my keys to the car. I was fine to drive I had only had one glass of wine all night. I jump in my Range and head down South I try and think like Lena. Would she go to see Dan or Zane? No, would she go to her hotel possibly?
My head was a fucking mess I should of been more forceful and told Lena the truth about Robyn. I couldn't lose Lena over some lie.
A couple of hours have passed and I pull into the motorway services I needed caffeine and fresh air. I sit outside for about twenty minutes drinking my coffee with my heart heavy. Knowing Lena she wont believe me she wont believe the truth after all it does seem far out..... FUCK!!!!
I jump back in the Range ready to set off when my phone pings it's an unrecognised number I open the text and read it
"Jon-Paul just thought I would let you know that Lena is safe, she is with me Benson"
My hands shaking I drop the phone Jesus I was a mess. I scramble to get my phone and text Benson back.
"Benson I need to see her what she was told wasn't true, I love her and I need to put this right. Is she at the Adroite or at your house"
"The Adrotie"
"I'll be there in an hour"
I literally put my foot down cruising that last leg of the journey the roads were empty and quiet.
I pull into the Adroite car park and run into reception and of course Benson is there with the night security.
"I need to see her Benson" I say.
"She is sleeping Jon. Lena was in a terrible state you have got some serious explaining to do. That poor girl is broken" He says and I see the look of disgust in him as he looks at me.
"I know Benson....I was trying to protect two people and it has all back fired on me.....can you let me explain to you....hear me out at least?" I say.
We head to the restaurant area and Benson fixes us both a coffee. I sit with him for thirty minutes telling him everything.
"Well Jon you have certainly gone through some serious shit with that Robyn girl. Why didn't you just tell Lena?" Benson says to me, he thankfully believes me.
"I tried to a couple of times but she brushed it off and now I have lost her" I reply and I can feel my eye welling up at the thought of losing Lena I swallow hard trying to compose myself.
"You really love Lena don't you Jon" Benson says
I nod. I am so emotionally drained and tired to reply.
"Come, I'll let you into Lena's room but do not wake her she needs her rest. You can sleep on the sofa and hopefully you can sort this out" Benson says.
I smile at him and he leads me to Lena's room.
I walk in and Lena is asleep in bed. Just seeing her I let go and the tears stream down my face knowing that I had hurt her so bad, bad enough that she jumped in a cab and headed back down South without speaking to me.....she had walked away from me from us and I couldn't blame her.
I sit on the sofa as I watch her sleep. I see her twitching in her sleep and she lets out a small moan and I hear her say "No". She was having some sort of nightmare and sleep talking the few amounts of time we had stayed the night together she never twitched or spoke in her sleep.
It broke my heart into a thousand pieces when I heard her say in her sleep
"NO JP Please"
I look over and she is asleep sleep talking but her brain still running things over and then nothing I just hear her breathing. I had to fix this Lena was my everything I wasn't going to lose her again we had to face this out and hopefully Lena would understand my actions.
I must of dozed off myself I was shattered. I wake up and look at the bed, Lena still fast asleep the sun beaming into the room and onto Lena even asleep her face looks taunt and sad. I move from the sofa and sit on the end of the bed wanting to be nearer to her. I see her move a bit and turn over Lena sits up and rubs her eyes as she looks at me, focusing on me and I can see she is shocked that I am there.
