It's complicated.

Chapter 32

Toms POV in Los Angeles

"Are you fucking kidding me? And there's no way out of it? Cmon Lucy, you have to find a way out for me. I'm not losing Y/N and my baby for this role" I yelled into the speaker and hung up. How could this happen? How could I lose my little family and get my dream role all in one day. This was not possible. It had to be a dream. I needed to wake up from it. I slapped myself in the face as hard as I could. It stung really bad and I had forgotten about my busted up lip and black eye and yelled out in pain. I needed to see Y/N and there was no way that I was going to be stopped. I had my bag packed and was walking out the front door when I saw a phone call come in. I saw the caller ID and knew who it was. There was no way I was going to be let out and not do this project. It was the high up of the MCU, they were calling to congratulate me on my new solo Spider-Man tv show. The great news also included that I was going to start filming in two days. The even better news? It wasn't going to be here in LA, it was going to be in Atlanta, 1943 miles away from LA. 2178 miles away from Y/N and my baby.

Y/N POV in Pacific Northwest Small Town
"Mom, I already told you, I'm not hungry. I ate on the plane." I argued with her as she tried to force feed me fruit.
"Sweetie, you don't look so good. Do you want to talk? I think you should talk about it." she pleaded. I didn't answer, I just looked outside the window. Onto the waves crashing into the beach.
"I'm okay mom, I'm good now that I'm home. I promise. I'm gonna go to take a walk okay.'' I told her as I picked up some shoes and grabbed a jacket. I needed to be alone. No one was going to help me, and the only person that would was in a different state.
After a short walk, long enough to clear my head for a bit, I walked back home. I entered the house and heard them talking quite loudly. It was my mom and she was on the phone with someone. I knew who it was. It had to be Tom.
"Yeah sweetie, she's okay. She doesn't look so good, but health wise she's doing okay. So when do you leave?" she asked him. Was Tom on his way over here? I secretly hoped he was. I hoped that he would come and rescue me and that we could forget this ever happened. I always asked Tom to come with me to visit my parents, but he always said that we could come visit after the baby was born, so he never came.
"Oh tomorrow? That's so soon. Well that's amazing news Tom. I wish she was there to share the news with you. Oh sweetie don't you cry, she'll be okay with us. Well take care of both of them. Maybe you can come visit after the baby is born? I'm sure she would like that a lot." Where the hell was he going if he wasn't coming here? And why wouldn't he be able to visit until after our baby was born?
Getting angry and frustrated I made noise to announce my presence in the house and heard her go quiet. I went up to her door and knocked on it.
"No need to whisper mom, I already know. I knew I shouldn't have trusted him. I should've known that all the promises that he made weren't true. He's exactly like Richard." I yelled, disgust coming out of my voice. I ran upstairs and locked my door. It felt like I was back in highschool again. Running up the same stairs that I used to run up to just almost 7 years ago. But this was different. This wasn't something small like getting broken up with over the phone, or being grounded for sneaking out of the house. I couldn't believe that my family that I had created with Tom, was dissolving and I no longer had a partner nor a father for my unborn child. I was now left alone, just like I had been almost 8 months ago.

She eventually came up and broke the news to me. She told me that Tom called her. She told me that he was leaving for Atlanta, to film a new TV show for Marvel. A solo show. A show that I wasn't going to be written into. He couldn't get out of the contract she said, he needed to be in it. The sobs came pouring out, curses followed those sobs. I no longer had a family, I was now a single mother. And now I was also out of a job.
