AMELIA'S POV
The lines on her thighs are redder and angrier and that can only mean one thing but I don't want to make her uncomfortable so I'm going to sit with her.
- Amelia : Are you comfortable?
- y/n : Why are you doing this?
- Amelia : I care about you
- y/n : I'm sorry
- Amelia : What for?
- y/n : Calling you
- Amelia : I have a feeling if you hadn't called me then you would've done something really stupid
It's been almost three months since Ernie was diagnosed with cancer which can only mean things aren't going very well if Y/n is in this place again.
- y/n : I'm hurting
- Amelia : Talk to me
- y/n : I haven't stopped thinking about what my Dad said. That it's my fault. I haven't spoken to him in months and Scott barely speaks to me. Pa can barely move and Chloe is trying to hold us all together. Winnie doesn't even want to be around me
- Amelia : I'm sure that's not true
- y/n : She asked me to text Jack to pick her up
- Amelia : Oh
- y/n : Mhm
- Amelia : You know you can always talk to me. I care about you
- y/n : Why? I was a bitch to you
She was but I still like her. I'm kind of with Link but I can't just not like Y/n. Look at her.
- Amelia : We can talk in the morning. Go to sleep
- y/n : You'll be here when I wake up?
- Amelia : Of course I will
She's been struggling. She's been struggling and keeping it a secret. I haven't been around as much because I've been with Link when I should've been here with Y/n.
- y/n : Mhm
- Amelia : Morning
- y/n : Huh? Egh
- Amelia : Right. There's Tylenol next to the water on the side. I'm making breakfast and then we need to talk
I don't want to scare her. I want to make sure she's okay.
YOUR POV
I drank too much last night if Amelia is here this morning.
- Amelia : Pancakes are on the table
- y/n : You made them? You sure they're edible?
- Amelia : Shut up and eat it. They taste pretty good. I used your recipe
My pancake recipe is pretty good.
- Amelia : You're not okay
- y/n : Of course I'm okay
- Amelia : Y/n
- y/n : I'm fine
- Amelia : The scars on you leg aren't scars anymore
- y/n : Like I said. I'm fine
- Amelia : Talk to me. Please?
She asked me to talk. So I'm going to talk.
- y/n : What do you want to know? How I can't cure my Pa? How my Dad blames me for Lewis and for Winnie needing surgery? How I have panic attacks basically everyday because I'm running out of time with my Pa? How I can't sleep, that I'm having nightmares? How I'm failing Winnie as a Mom because I'm sad all the time? What do you want me to say Amelia
- Amelia : You could've come to me
- y/n : No, I couldn't. I told you to go on dates with other people when all I wanted was to go on a date with you. But you're with Link and I'm a grown up. I have to do it on my own. I already depend on Maggie enough
- Amelia : Maggie knows?
- y/n : She's been helping me with my panic attacks
- Amelia : Y/n
- y/n : I don't need your sympathy
- Amelia : Come here
- y/n : No
- Amelia : Stop being stubborn and let me hold you
For once I feel like I can let it go. Like I don't have to be strong or hide. With Amelia I can be vulnerable.
- Amelia : I'm sorry I didn't notice. I'm so sorry
- y/n : Not your fault
- Amelia : Mhm. Let's go back to bed. You're tired
- y/n : You're staying?
- Amelia : Of course I am. I have one question first
- y/n : Mhm
- Amelia : Can I check?
I know what she's asking but it's a big step. It took a lot to show her the scars and now it's not just scars.
AMELIA'S POV
I'm asking a lot but she needs someone to care, to look after her. I care, I want to look after her
- y/n : Mhm
- Amelia : Okay. Go to your bathroom. I'll just do the washing up
- y/n : I can do it
- Amelia : Go to the bathroom.
I need to make sure she is safe and knows she has someone to talk to.

Link
Are you coming home
soon?
Amelia
Y/n needs me
Link
Fuck Y/n. I have a present
for you 😉
Amelia
No, I need to stay with
Y/n right now
Link
Amelia get your ass home
or we're over
Amelia
Then we're over. Get your
stuff out my room before
I get home
Well that was easy. He should've been able to respect what I need to do.
- Amelia : Okay, I'm just going to put some cream on them
- y/n : Mhm
- Amelia : Look, hey, no. No need to cry. Hold me hand
- y/n : I can't
- Amelia : Hold my hand love
I keep calling her love but I don't think she's entirely bothered. She was last night but she was also drunk.
- Amelia : You did so well. Let me wash my hands and then we can go to bed
- y/n : Hurry. Please
I'm hoping that Y/n will start to trust me again and will start to unbottle her emotions. It's not healthy for her to be carrying onto everything.
- y/n : Please don't leave
- Amelia : I'm not going to leave
- y/n : Promise?
- Amelia : I promise Y/n/n. Close your eyes. I'll be here when you wake up
And that's a promise I'll keep.
