Parents

Drunk

That evening Lucy spoke with Angela about the woman who passed in her arms, They sat on the sofa with top chef on in the background, Angela listened carefully as Lucy told her everything.

"Lucy there wasn't anything u could've done to save her." Angela reassured her.

"Celina told me the same, I just feel awful."

"Lu come here." Angela held her arms out for a hug.

Lucy scooted closer into Angela's embrace, they sat like this watching tv for a couple of hours. Angela wanted to stay up till Wesley got home, she always worried about him when he worked late.

"Lu u can go to bed if u want it's late."

"I don't really want to be alone, and we don't have work tomorrow " Lucy admitted.

"Alright darling."

"Did u know tomorrow I'm 5 months?" Lucy looked up at Angela ,still cuddled up to each other.

"That's gone so fast Lu, ur over halfway."

"Thank god, I look like a bowling ball already."

"Does Bailey want to know the gender?" Angela asked curiously.

"We didn't actually talk about that, well she's telling John tonight so I'll call her tomorrow."

"Lucy u don't understand how proud I am of u, ur literally like my daughter now." Angela couldn't help but tell Lucy how proud she is.

They carried on talking till they heard the front door slam shut. Angela snapped her head around to see Wesley taking his shoes off.

"Do u have to slam the bloody door? Willow is asleep." Angela muttered as she stood up.

"Why are u in such a good dam mood all the time Angela!" Wesley shouted.

As Angela got closer she smelt the alcohol on his breath. He was never like this when he was drunk though.

"Wesley what's going on why are u acting like this?" Angela held his wrist to stop him from walking away.

"Angela don't piss me off even more."

Lucy stood up, she was scared.

"Angela what's going on?" Lucy asked.

"I don't know Lu. Wesley what is wrong with u?" Angela asked calmly.

"I've had a crap day at work ok so I'm going to bed!" Wesley walked into their bedroom slamming the door again.

"If willow wakes up I'm going to kill him." Angela was fuming.

Just then willow began to cry, Jack also peered out his bedroom door to see what was going on.

"For god sake!" Angela was already tired, it was 1am she had waited all this time because she wanted to see Wesley and he was behaving like this.

"Jack go back to bed hunny." Lucy smiled.

Angela went into willows room and scooped her out of the crib, she started to rock her back and forth praying she would go back to sleep.

Lucy remained on the couch not knowing what to do with herself, she could tell Angela was trying to keep it together.

Half an hour later Angela emerged from willows room, her eyes red and swollen. It was obvious she had been crying.

"Ange what happened?" Lucy stood up and gave her a hug.

"I don't even know, I'm worried about him."

"Do u want to take my bed for tonight and I'll sleep on the couch?" Lucy offered.
