Parents

Broken?

Tim stayed on the phone to Lucy the whole time, he got there as fast as he could. He could tell Lucy was having an episode but not wanting to take her meds, when he arrived he took the spare key from under the planter and let himself in.

Lucy was lying on the sofa staring into space.

"Baby I'm here, where's is ur meds?" Tim crouched next to her,

Lucy shrugged.

"Lu u need them now, can I look through ur bag?"

Lucy nodded. She hadn't had an episode like this before, usually they are loud and aggressive. This time she felt like she wasn't in control of her body and had no energy.

Tim found her pills and took one out of the pot.

"Please take it Luce." Tim put it into her mouth.

Lucy swallowed it. Tim sat on the floor next to the sofa while they waited for the meds to kick in.

"I'm sorry Tim." Lucy said, she was more aware of what was going on.

"Sorry for what?" Tim held her hand and rubbed it with his thumb in an attempt to calm her,

"U having to come here."

"I honestly do not mind darling,

"Thank u,"

Tim and Lucy stayed cuddled up on the sofa for about an hour until Tim received a call from his sister.

T- hey Genny what's up?
G- u invited me round to see Tamara and ur not here ?
T- oh crap, I'll be over in a second.
G- where are you?
T- Lucy needed me.
G- if u can't come it's alright,
T- I will be there in 10, sorry.
G- ok see u soon.

Tim hung up, he felt awful he had forgotten about his sister coming.

"Everything ok?" Lucy asked.

"Genny came over to see tam but I forgot, do u mind if I go back there?"

"Of course not baby, I'll text u later." Lucy didn't really want Tim to leave.

"Or you can come?" Tim smiled trying to convince Lucy.

"Would Genny mind?"

"Of course not, she wants to see you Lu."

"Check she doesn't mind,"

"Lucy she will not mind at all."

"Tim just ask her please."

"Ok baby." Tim stroked his fingers through Lucy's hair, he picked up the phone to call Genny back.

T- Genny do u mind if Lucy comes with me?
G- of course not, I want to see her.
T- alright just leaving.

"See." Tim said to Lucy once he hung up the phone.

"Let me get changed real quick I look a mess."

"Baby u look adorable."

Lucy's hair was in a messy bun, she had a red tank top on with white sweatpants.

"U sure?"

"Of course darling, let's go."

Lucy put her shoes on and grabbed her keys, pills and vape. She knew she would need it. She followed Tim out the front and into his truck. Lucy was a bit upset Angela hadn't texted or called to check she was alright after she stormed out the station.

Soon enough they arrived at Tim's house, when they went in Genny was already sat talking with Tamara.

Genny stood up the second she saw Lucy, she approached her.
