LIAMS POV-

Ana-Lucia was slowly recovering from her state. I was still sleeping in my sister’s bed though; I didn’t want to rush her in recovering I just wanted her to get better. It had been a few days since the night I went to Louis’s house. I had spoken to him every day since, I was kind of lucky that Ana-Lucia was too ill to ask questions about it, if I had to tell her I might make her more ill. I felt relieved at this thought. I was lay in bed thinking about if there was anything else I could do to help her recover… At least she was letting me touch her though.

I got up to go and see if Ana-Lucia was awake. Her bedroom door was open; “Liam come here” a voice spoke from the bed. I walked slowly over trying not to make her jump. He face was pale and boney, her bones shining through her frail skin.  “Liam sit here” she raised her hand and tapped it next to what was left of her thigh. I sat carefully on the bed where she gestured for me to sit. “Ana-Lucia are you having breakfast? Please baby” I pleaded. She nodded; this would be the first meal she had eaten since it had happened.  “Thank you” I cried. “Liam why are you crying?” Ana-Lucia asked faintly. “It’s just, Ana-Lucia  I love you so much and I thought I was going to lose you and I am so happy I have got you back” I cried. She lifted her arm and felt my cheek. Her hand was so frail on my cheek.

“Liam, I want to start organizing the wedding. I want to be yours forever. I want to get married as soon as I get better.” Ana-Lucia stated. “Ana-Lucia I think we should wait until you get better properly” I replied. I didn’t want her ill on our wedding day. If Ana-Lucia was ill we wouldn’t be able to enjoy it properly. She nodded back to me. Maybe this means she would have more of a reason to recover and would eat to recover t her full potential. She smiled at me. “I love you so much” I cried happily. “I love you too” she laughed back. “Are you coming down for breakfast or do you want me to bring it upstairs” I asked her. She moved me off the bed and grabbed my hand to help her up.

Ana-Lucia’s body looked so weak. Her top drowned her, easily looking like a dress. “Ana-Lucia what size is the top you are wearing?” I recognized it as one I had bought her the week it had all happened. “It’s a six Liam why?” she asked. If the top she was wearing was a six and it drowned her, what size is she in this state? “Ana-Lucia I’m going to take you and Aimee clothes shopping tomorrow on one condition” I told her. “What-What’s the condition?” Ana-Lucia replied weakly. “You eat all meals today and at least three snacks?” I answered. I needed her to eat. She nodded weakly. “Let’s get you dressed” I smiled.

ANA-LUCIA POV-

I sat at the table with Liam and his mum and dad, over the time they had adopted me I never called them mum or dad just Karen and Geoff. I don’t know why it just never occurred to me that I should. We were going to drive down to pick Aimee up soon, I hadn’t picked her up or dropped her back off this time, I was way too ill for the six hour drive there and then back again. I had hardly seen Aimee at the weekend; Liam tried to keep her quiet so I would be able to sleep to get better. “You can’t go in those clothes Ana-Lucia” Liam spoke to me when we got upstairs, I was looking in my wardrobe at clothes that were now around 2 sizes too big. “Look in Aimee’s  wardrobe and see if there is any in there you can borrow” Liam suggested. What? Aimee was four her clothes would be way to small for me. Despite my thoughts I went into her wardrobe anyway just to check. In there, there were many clothes, because Aimee was small for her size people who knew her bought her clothes to small and I would never fit in those, so I looked to find clothes that were her size or maybe just a little bigger.

I found a top she had received as an Easter present from someone, age 4-5 and I found a pair of leggings that were the same size. It scared me that my 4 years old daughter’s clothes fit me. “This is why I need you to eat baby” Liam spoke from the door. “I never even realized Li” I cried into his shoulder. “I know baby I know” Liam comforted me. “Let’s go baby” he stroked my hair, weak because I hadn’t eaten.

After arriving back from picking Aimee up, Aimee slept all the way back. “Mummy why are you wearing my clothes?” she asked when we got out of the car. “I thought we would look like twins if I wore your clothes” I joked. “But mummy your too old” she laughed. I laughed back smiling. I tried to carry her in but I had no strength. “Mummy are you ok?” Aimee asked worried.  “I’m fine” I replied through my teeth. My back and shoulders were in severe pain. “Aimee I’m talking you and mummy out shopping tomorrow” Liam informed her. “Yayayay” Aimee celebrated before going straight to bed. Liam slept back in with me; I thought it would be fine.

I lay in bed with Liam next to me. I lay, eyes wide open, staring up at the ceiling. I felt really uncomfortable. It wasn’t Liam, it was fear. I didn’t care; I needed to get over this fear.  It was serious. He fell asleep almost instantly. Every time I would try and get to sleep I would accidently touch him and it would terrify me. I needed to get on with it though; I couldn’t let this ruin our relationship. I know it was going to take time but at least I was recovering.

I had eaten all three meals yesterday and I felt seriously ill, but I was fine. I went downstairs and Aimee and Liam were already down there making breakfast. “Aimee will you go and wash your hands, I just need to speak to mummy before breakfast.” Liam polity asked.  “Yes Daddy” Aimee replied happily skipping off to the bathroom. “Morning beautiful” he smiled. I smiled back. “Did you sleep ok?” he asked. What was I supposed to say? No, you can’t sleep in your own bed, I need my sleep. NO. I shouted at myself inside. I needed to get over what had happened. I couldn’t live my engagement in fear of being near the guy I was going to marry. “Yes” I lied.

“FUCK!” I muttered to myself whilst getting ready.

 Luckily Aimee wasn’t in hearing distance. “What’s up?” Liam asked. “What is the date?” I asked confused. He looked at his phone. “Its- it’s the… FUCK” He muttered. “Yeah I know” I mumbled. “Do you think she knows?” Liam asked me. “Well I think she would have said something” I replied. Liam nodded back. “I will sort something out” he thought.
