(Tamara's POV)
It had been two weeks now and I got released from hospital we went back home and I took a shower my stomach was healed now which was good and while we were at the hospital dad was being nice again to us we spoke every couple of days and I waved at him through the door and he waved back it was nice to see him he had been released too but mum said he's staying at Angela's house so we could only see him at the station we got dressed and went to the station I was in the office with Lucy when I saw Tim come in the station but he was stumbling everywhere Angela got up from her desk and helped him walk to his locker "mum is Tim okay?"I asked "he's just drunk tam maybe it's best you stay near me come here"Lucy said taking my hand and pulling me to her side
she did her work then it was lunch Tim was stumbling around even more now Lucy picked me up as we went to lunch and I could see she was tense we sat down and she gave me my food we started to eat then I saw Tim sat by himself I saw mum looking away and ran over to Tim I hugged him but I must of caught him off guard because he just turned around and pinned me to the floor punching me over and over in the stomach and face "mum help!"i screamed trying to fight himself I saw Angela pull him away from me and mum took my hand but my eyes started to shut.

The next thing I remember is waking up in hospital I moved a little but groaned in pain I felt someone touch my head and I immediately covered my head
"tam baby it's mum it's okay"Lucy said I moved my hand down "why would dad hurt me?"I asked "he was drunk baby he probably thought you were a random stranger"Lucy said stroking my hair my stomach really hurt I quickly put my hand on the spit where it hurt "baby does it hurt?"Lucy asked pointing to where I had my hand I nodded she got a doctor and he lifted up my gown but I pushed it back down he went to try lift it up again so I pushed his hand away
"Tamara I just need to look okay"he said I moved my hand and he lifted up the gown pushing down with two fingers on my stomach I cried out in pain and pushed his hand away "don't touch there it hurts"I said putting my hands over the spot again "alright Tamara we are going to get you to do a ct scan to make sure you don't have internal bleeding okay"the doctor said I just nodded we got to the room and I got put in the machine but it was really scary so I kept moving and trying to get the machine to stop the doctor came in with Lucy and said he had to sedate me so he could do the ct scan he put the needle in my arm and I got really tired and fell asleep.

When i woke up Lucy said I was doing good and I didn't have any internal bleeding I relaxed a little and held Lucy's hand the doctor came in and said I could go home now we got back home and relaxed on the sofa then Lucy tucked me into my bed and said goodnight but after an hour I ran to Lucy's room and got in bed with her I fell asleep after burying my head in her chest the next morning we were at the station when we walked past the cell Tim was in I quickly hid beating Lucy and Tim banged on the window he seemed really angry "mum carry me im scared"I said Lucy picked me up and i rested my head on her shoulder she went in greys office "hey sarge any chance you can tell Tim to stop banging on his door he's scaring tam and he's already hurt her enough"I heard Lucy say I heard grey mumble something then Lucy walked back to the office she tried to put me down but i held tightly onto her "baby it's okay I just gotta put you down so i can do work okay"she said but I still held onto her and I started to cry "mum don't put me down I'm too scared please don't put me down!"i begged her as I clung to her top again
"okay baby how about you just sit on my lap instead because I have work still"she said "okay ill sit with you"i said she placed me down then sat on her office chair before she lifted me onto her lap and I leant against her chest she had one hand on my side holding me closer to her and she was using the other hand to look at her cases I fell asleep.

(Lucy's POV)
I had Tamara asleep on my lap and one hand keeping her close I was doing cases and Angela walked in
"She okay?"Angela asked "yea just tired we walked past Tim's cell earlier and she got scared then he started banging on his cell door and it scared the crap out of her she thought he was going to get out the cell" said stroking tams hair "that's awful"Angela said sympathetically "I know I'm literally just going to finish these cases then sit in the sofa with her"I said flicking through more cases after I finished them I lay tam on the sofa next to me and started watching a film on my phone I felt tamara snuggle up closer to me
"hey tam"I said rubbing her back she just buried her face deeper into my chest "mum im hungry"she whined "alright sweetheart let's go grab you some food okay"I told her she nodded I took her hand in mine and walked to the food truck I got her food and we walked back to the office but Tim saw Tamara and started banging really loud on his cell door again and yelling something I could make it out Tamara curled into a ball on the floor and started to cry
"baby let's get to my office okay"I said as I lifted her up and took her to the office we rested on the couch and she cuddled into me and fell asleep I rubbed her back to keep her calmer after a while it was time to head home I carried tam to the car and drove home I got her tucked in my bed with me so she would atleast sleep good i looked at her and it hurt me so much to see the bruises that Tim had left on her I turned off my bedroom light and got back in bed watching my phone before taking a final glance at Tamara who was still asleep peacefully then I fell asleep.
