TW : R*ger,panic attacks.
{ Marjories Pov }
It's 9pm, I haven't heard from Reece since he left his nursery. By now I really don't know what to do. I've spammed him. I need him. I get up and get in my car. I don't know where to go. I just go to his nursery. And I just see his car. My mind starts filling with thoughts. No he wouldn't cheat. But would he? I see his office lights on. I don't know what to do. I open his nursery door,which is unlocked. I walk into his office and see him sitting in his chair. His eyebags were horrible. "Reece?" I say meek. I don't want to startle him.
He looks up at me. "My love what's wrong?" I walk over to him.
"Marj, leave please." His voice raspy. I can't leave him like this. I sigh and look at his desk. It's full of papers.I know Reece doesn't usually care about work,usually as soon as his shift ends he walks out. But staying at work until 9pm is a drag. Especially for Reece. Someone who has zero interest in it. I know something has happened for him to stay.

I'm so tired. Roger has made me finish all of these papers by my next shift. I've been doing them for hours. Since atleast 3pm. I hate him so much. I would rather be with my lovely girlfriend. I wanna just cuddle her but I need to be alone right now. "Marjorie. Leave. Now." I say sternly hoping she gets the hint. And she walks out. What do I do? She probably hates me but I can't be around her otherwise I will lash out. I wanna call someone but I can't. I sit here and sigh. I just continue with my papers. I don't wanna speak to anybody. I just lock the door.

I call aut. She wouldn't want her brother to be sitting here at 9:40pm stressing out other papers her father gave him. But he doesn't like opening up to anyone really,but because aut was there his whole life,she was the one to get through to him the easiest. After two rings she picks up. 'Marjorie,it's almost ten what do you want.'
I just sigh,"aut your brothers stressing out in his office he won't move,your father has gave him so many papers. Aut he won't get through to me. Try and get him to move,please." And I hear a door opening and keys jingling. The call hangs up.After only two minutes,I see her car. I let out a big sigh of relief. And walk over to her. "Aut he's literally in his office and won't talk to me." She just walks right into his nursery.

I walk into his nursery about to burst in to his office. But his office door is locked and all I hear is sniffles. He's been crying. I hate our father so much. I sigh. "Reece?" And I get no response. I keep repeating his name until I hear the lock click open. I rush in and see Reece,on the floor. His leg bouncing up and down,his breathing fast,he's grabbing onto his jumper trying to breathe. Tears are streaming down his face. He's having a panic attack. I kneel down infront of him and slowly touch his hand,to which he flinches. "Reece it's autumn, your safe breathe." He holds my hand and continues sobbing. I don't want anyone near him so I lock the door. After his breathing subsides, I finally talk. "Reece,I know father has probably stressed you out but please,please don't worry. You don't need to stay here late. You need to be home with your girlfriend. What did he say to you Reece?" I could see the fear and pain in his eyes.

"Aut,he said.." I say pausing. "Aut,he said he would kill Marjorie,and we know our father wouldn't lie about that aut." I just want to hug Marjorie right now but I can't. Aut called Marjorie to tell her to meet us at home. And which she did. I would be near anyone but Marjorie right now. Obviously she would help but I don't want her seeing me like this ever. All of a sudden I hear autumn talking to Mia. As much as I would complain she does comfort me a lot. Especially after a panic attack. Within seconds Mia bursts into the office and sits next to me as aut leaves and drives home. It was better for me. "Mia, Roger-" she cuts me off by hugging me.
"Sweetheart,autumns told me everything. I'm gonna drive you home. I think you need to be at home with your girlfriend okay?" So I just nod. She drags me into the car. On the way home she had her hand on my thigh. People would obviously think we're dating but she's always done it to comfort me. I would never date Mia again. All I need is my Marjorie. We finally arrive home and I see Marjorie at the door. I get out and she runs up to me. She pulls me into a massive embrace. She can obviously tell I've been crying but she knows I wouldn't want to speak about it yet. I see Mia in the corner of my eye just smiling and I nod at her so she can leave. Marjorie takes my hand and leads me into the living room. She lays on the sofa and I lay on top of her. "Reece," she says looking down. "What happened my love?"
"Well,Roger doesn't make threats he usually just sticks to his word, today he said I need to finish all of those papers otherwise he would kill you. I know it sounds stupid but Roger's done that before to his workers when me and aut were kids. I don't know why but I was just scared of losing you." I say as she holds me tight."Reece I love you so much."
"You too."
