Will She Be Like This Forever?

Chapter 39

It's coming on Christmas

They're cutting down trees

They're putting up reindeer

And singing songs of joy and peace

Oh, I wish I had a river I could skate away on

England Christmas.

00:00

"Oh. My. Fucking. God."

I screamed. I actually fucking screamed. I think I nearly fainted.

Stood in my room, were two girls. Two girls that I missed so very much.

"Lucy! Keira!"

I ran up to them and hugged them.

"You said you couldn't come." I whispered against their bodies.

"Wouldn't miss this for the world, mon ange." Lucy smiled.

I pulled away from them but hugged them literally a second after.

"She's so adorable." Keira spoke to Leah.

"Isn't she just." Leah rubbed my back. "Let's go back downstairs, my love."

I grabbed both Keira and Lucy's hands and took them downstairs where everyone else was, they all greeted Lucy and Keira with hugs, but I was never far from the two women. I was by their side until the early hours of the morning. We sang songs, drank a little bit, I laid on them for most of the night too.

At one point, I knew I didn't want to drink anymore, as I was absolutely plastered, so I walked up to Leah.

"You okay babe?" she smiled, moving my hair out of my face.

"Yeah. I really am. I don't want to drink anymore, just telling you." I smiled, hugging her.

"Okay. Thank you for telling me." we stayed in the hug for another minute before I went to find Lucy again.

"Luce!" I said, jumping on her back.

"Yes love?" she laughed.

"Can I have your phone?" I smiled, acting suspicious.

"Hmmm, what for?" she questioned, putting me down.

"No reason. I just want toooo take photos?" I said, not convincingly at all.

"What are you actually going to do?" she laughed, pulling her phone out.

"Message Mapi. I just want to see how she is. I won't even tell her it's me." I smiled.

"You can come outside with me, and we will call her, okay? But I'm speaking, not you." Lucy laughed, pulling me outside.

We sat on the stairs and Lucy called Mapi.

Maria Leon💛

(All in Spanish, Bold is Lucy)

Hey Mapi. Did I wake you up?

No, I'm with Alexia. How is England? Have you seen Lauren yet?
