Lottie opened the attachment, it was a picture of her and Nat cuddling and asleep infront of the tv. She smiled, it was cute. Lottie saved the photo to her camera roll and turned off her phone. She didn't have to get up for another half an hour but she wanted to make Nat breakfast.

Natalie
Nat woke up to the smell of bacon, she got out of bed and headed downstairs.
"Hey" said Nat
"Good morning sleepy head"
Nat blushed
"I made breakfast" said Lottie
Nat felt weird, no one had ever made her anything before
"Uh, thanks Lott" said Nat
She looked really good without makeup, then again she looked really good always, but still.
"I have something to ask you"
"What's up?" Asked Nat
"My parents are coming home tonight and they want to meet you" said Lottie
What?!?! She had to meet Lottie's parents? The girl who she was fake dating and secretly in love with. This was not gonna go well
"Oh- ok" said Nat
"Don't worry, you will do great" comforted Lottie

The two girls morning went by quickly enough, they had their breakfast and sort of just stared at each other lovingly. Lottie got changed and Nat had some spare clothes at school so just threw on her dress. They headed to school and Went to the changing room, where Nat got changed and Lottie definitely did not stare at Nat getting changed... their day went similarly to the previous one, skipping bio, but without the almost kissing and no weird hallucinations. At the end of the day they had practice and after headed back to Lottie's car.

"I'm gonna walk home so I can get ready for tonight" said Nat
"I'll walk to yours too, see you at seven?"
"Sound good" said Lottie
"I'm sure you will look great, you always do" said Lottie kissing Nat on the cheek.
what?! Nat blushed, it was real, no one else was around, Lottie kissed her for the sake of kissing her, maybe she did like her back!
Nah headed home, the walk was long but nice. Just as she arrived at her trailer she heard something smash. Nat closed the door behind her and walked cautiously into the house.
"There you are" her dad shouted
"Where were you last, night off with some boy?"
Nat didn't say anything
"You fucking slut"
Nat's dad walked over to her and smashed the empty beer bottle he was holding over her head. She felt a splitting pain as the glass smashed over her head, Nat fell to her knees. Her dad kicked her, Nat felt a huge deep pain in her ribs and let out a yell in pain. He kicked her again and again and again. She felt her throat fill up as she started coughing out blood. He pulled her up by her arms and threw her against the wall. She caught on a Nail and felt the her back slit open. She wasn't there, she felt the pain but was somewhere else. She was safe. She was with Lottie. They were at an aquarium. He punched her face, he head slamming back against the wall . They were looking at sharks, laughing, holding hands. He picked up and empty beer bottle and threw it at Nat as she fell to the floor. Blood flowing out of the several gashes on her face and on her back. They were kissing, in-front the dimly blue lit tank, filled with hundreds of fish. He walked away, opening the door and heading outside.
Nat couldn't move, she could only lay there, in agony, bleeding onto the floor of the trailer, a mix of blood and saliva leaking out her mouth onto the carpet.'She closed her eyes. Lottie was there smiling at her. Shit Lottie, dinner with Lottie's parents. She was going to miss it.
A tear rolled out of Nat's eye, she lay, scrunched up on the floor.

Lottie
Everyone sat around the table expectantly.
"Charlotte, where is she?"
"Probably stuck in traffic" Lottie lied.
Where was Nat? She couldn't bail, not now. Twenty minutes passed.
"Can you call her?"
"Oh- um yeah I'll do that now"
Lottie got up and picked up her phone, heading out to the corridor.
She called Nat. No answer, what was she gonna tell her parents??
"Charlotte?" Shouted her dad
"Yeah coming"
Lottie walked back into the dining room.
"She's, uh sick" Lottie lied
"What a great use of my time" Mr Matthews sighed
"In that case we'll be off" said Mrs Matthews
"Goodbye Charlotte"  said her parent in unison walking out. Lottie felt her chest flare up, her eyes started swelling up with tears. How could Nat do this? She liked Nat, she really did. And Nat just left her.
Lottie ran upstairs and collapsed into her bed. She burried her face into her pillow as tears rolled down her cheeks, why did this happen?

Natalie
Nat lay on the floor in pain as tears rolled down her cheeks, why did this happen?

Nat dragged herself to her room and pulled out her first aid kit, tending to her wounds before collapsing into bed. Poor Lottie. She let her down. Now she definitely has no chance with Lottie, but it didn't mean she was going to give up. Not yet. But for now, she had a splitting headache and just needed to close her eyes, just for a little bit.

Lottie
Lottie really thought they had something, something more that the fake relationship, but she guesses she was wrong. How did everything go so bad so quickly?
