" Did you have to do this? I was thinking that you could be trusted"

Y/N Southgate- 'Bad Blood'

August 11th, 2021

The echoes of Y/N's fragile confession reverberated through the room, shattering the fragile silence between her and Ben. She braced herself for his reaction, knowing the magnitude of her words and the devastating impact they would have on their relationship.

"I'm not pregnant anymore, Ben," Y/N whispered, her voice quivering with sadness and vulnerability.

Ben's eyes widened, a mixture of shock and anger sweeping across his face. The weight of her revelation sank deep into his core, and he struggled to process the emotions surging within him. His voice trembled with a volatile mix of hurt and frustration.

"How...how could this happen?" Ben's words came out as a broken plea, his heart aching with a sense of loss. "We were supposed to start a family together, Y/N. You've taken that away from us."

Y/N's tears flowed freely, her own heart heavy with the burden of her shattered dreams. She longed to explain, to seek solace in Ben's embrace, but his anger overshadowed any chance of reconciliation.

With trembling hands, Ben pointed towards the door, his voice laced with anguish and fury. "Leave. Just go."

Feeling utterly defeated, Y/N stumbled out of the room, her tears blurring her vision. Her steps led her aimlessly through the winding hallways of the England Camp, her sobs echoing in the solitude.

Amidst the depths of her despair, Y/N found an unexpected source of solace in Jude Bellingham. As she sought refuge in a secluded corner of the lounge room, her cries muffled by her hands, Jude happened upon her in the midst of his own late-night wanderings.

Concern etched across his face, Jude approached Y/N, his voice filled with genuine care. "Are you alright? Can I help?"

Y/N looked up, her tear-stained eyes meeting Jude's empathetic gaze. In that instant, a flicker of hope ignited within her, and she found herself pouring out her heart to this kind stranger.

"I...I told Ben that I'm not pregnant anymore, and he...he kicked me out," Y/N choked on her words, her pain raw and palpable.

Without hesitation, Jude settled beside her, his presence offering solace and understanding. He didn't need to hear the details to comprehend the depth of her anguish. Silently, he reached for the remote and switched on the television, navigating to the familiar comfort of "Frozen."

As the vibrant animation danced across the screen, Y/N and Pressley nestled against Jude on the couch. They found solace in the warmth of each other's company, their laughter mingling with the musical melodies of the film.

Time ceased to exist as Y/N's heart slowly mended in the embrace of newfound friendship. Pressley's innocent giggles and Jude's unwavering support became the balm to her wounded soul.

In the dim glow of the television, the weight of exhaustion washed over them all. Y/N shifted, her head finding its place on Jude's chest, their fingers intertwining. And there, amidst the gentle sway of their breaths, they surrendered to sleep, finding solace in the haven of the couch.

As the night unfolded, Y/N and Jude slept, their dreams weaving together in a tapestry of respite and healing. In that fleeting moment of vulnerability, they forged a connection, each offering the other fragments of comfort amidst the chaos of their lives.

And so, with fingers interlocked and hearts on the mend, they embraced the serenity of sleep, entwined in a fragile tapestry of hope and the promise of brighter days to come.
