Parents

Alone

Lucy spun around to see Grey walking towards her.

"Oh hey sir," Lucy smiled awkwardly

"What have you done?" He asked genuinely concerned

"Broken knuckles, will be out for at least a month." Lucy sighed.

"Oh crap, how did u do that?"

"Just was a bit angry you know."

"Oh yeah," grey didn't asked anymore.

"How come you're here sir?"

"Checking in on Tim, did you end up seeing him last night?"

"Yep."

"Why don't u see him now while you're here?" Grey suggested.

"Nah I'm good."

Wesley looked at grey smiling uncomfortably.

"Lucy we need to get you home, I've got to head into the office."

"Alright, bye sir."

Lucy and Wesley got into the car, Lucy was so annoyed her hand was broken but she couldn't really blame anyone else.

"It will be ok Lucy," Wesley sensed she was feeling upset about the situation

"I really hope so."

"How come you didn't tell grey?"

"I want Tim to have to tell him." Lucy smirked.

"I like your thinking."

Eventually they pulled up outside the house, Wesley quickly dropped Lucy off and headed to work.

Lucy didn't know what to do with herself, she absolutely hated being alone but decided she needed to get comfortable with it if she can't work for at least a month. She decided she needed to clear out her room, the mess it was in really didn't help her mental health.

Lucy put her headphones on and started to fold the clothes off of the floor, she was getting frustrated with how difficult it was doing everything one handed. It took her a while but she felt relief being able to see the floor for the first time in months. She placed all the clothes in the wardrobe and drawers before taking the dirty ones into the laundry room to wash them.

Lucy continued with the cleaning, after almost 3 hours she looked around to see her room spotless, she was so proud of herself for once.

She decided to make something to eat, she hadn't felt hungry until now. Lucy chopped up some veggies and tossed them into a pan with two eggs to make an omelette. This was her favourite meal to cook. Once she had plated it up she decided to update Angela by giving her a call.

A- hey Lulu, u alright?
L- yeah just made something to eat, and don't worry I just took my meds.
A- well done Lu.
L- my hands broken
A- I know baby, Wesley told me
L- I'm so mad
A- that's understandable Luce, it will be ok.
L- anyway, how's your day?
A- it's alright, been missing you
L- I'm missing you too, what time are you home?
A- I'll be home around 6ish so 3 more hours, Nyla has just left to pick the kids up.
L- is she dropping them home or are they staying at hers?
A- I think she was going to give them dinner, I'm picking willow up from nursery when I've finished work by the way.
L- ok, I might walk down to Nyla's in a little bit then.
A- ok darling, i better get back to work
L- see you later.

Lucy washed up her plate and everything she used to cook, she struggled to do it without getting her cast wet.

20 minutes later Lucy decided to walk to Nyla's as she was feeling lonely, she was unable to tie her shoes so had to wear her Birkenstocks. She still hadn't changed out of her pyjamas but she didn't really care.
