*Natalie's POV*
I was beyond scared now. I didn't even move. Tom just walks in telling me and Tara something and then stops and notices our mum stood in the room. Then he asked her why she was here. She just looked at me, asking for my feelings and emotions. But what could I say 'Tom, mum is here because she came to see how I was because I'm her daughter and your brother!'
"Natalie, what did you say?"
Shit. Did I just say that out loud?
"I didn't say anything why?" I think everybody could tell that my voice was cracking and I was so nervous.
"Natalie you said something, something about how my mum came to see you and something about a brother. Are you not telling me something?!"
"Listen Thomas, I don't think Natalie here wants you to know, but I'm pretty sure she will tell you when she wants to. I only came here because Jay said that you were at the hospital with 2 girls and I just wanted to meet them. No harm in that?! Now Thomas, I'm going to have to go, I have to travel back to Bolton tonight. I love you. Take care. And it was nice meeting you girls."
Thank god my mum jumped in. I didn't think I could handle talking about this now. I've kept it a secret for so many weeks and I want it to stay that way. I hate lying to all of them, but I couldn't exactly tell them. Things would change, and I don't want them to. I'm happy with the lads not knowing my secret.
"Nat. I understand that you might not want to tell me, but you mentioned something about a brother? What's he like?"
Okay. I was furious. How could he not remember. We even got matching tattoos for my 18th birthday! How can he act like he doesn't know me? this is why I didn't want to meet him again. I knew he has forgotten me, but I've only just realized how much he has forgotten me. He can't even look me in the eyes and see the same shade of hazel staring back at him. I just lost it...
"WELL IF YOU MUST KNOW HE IS FROM BOLTON. SINGS. IS PART OF A WORLDWIDE FAMOUS BAND. HIS FAVOURITE ANIMAL IS A PARROTT AND HE HAS 1 YOUNGER SISTER WHO HE DOESNT EVEN REMEMBER. HE TREATS HIS SISTER LIKE SHIT BECAUSE HE CANT EVEN REMEMBER WHAT SHE LOOKS LIKE. HE CANT REMEMBER ANYTHING ABOUT HER AND THAT BREAKS ME!"
At this point I was on the floor in a ball, sobbing with Tara hugging me and whispering comforting words. Only she knows what it's like to go through that pain and heartbreak. Only she, my best friend, my chummy can truly understand.
"NATALIE, WHAT IS HE CALLED. I WILL MAKE HIS LIFE HELL FOR FORGETTING SOMEONE LIKE YOU. I'VE ONLY KNOWN THE TWO OF YOU FOR A FEW WEEKS BUT I CONSIDER BOTH OF YOU LIKE MY SISTERS. I WILL HURT HIM FOR MAKING YOU FEEL LIKE SHIT! NATALIE, WHAT IS HE CALLED?"
"TOM! FINE I'LL TELL YOU. HIS NAME IS THOMAS ANTHONY PARKER. 1/5 OF THE WANTED."
And with that, I ran. I didn't know where but I just ran. I've finally told him after so long. I'm sorry.
*Tara's POV*
As soon as Natalie said that last word, she ran. She ran straight from my arms and out of the door, tears streaming down her face. I looked up at Tom. He looked shocked, his mouth wide open as realization kicked in. Everything Natalie said was true. Tom treat her like shit and that's why she didn't want to tell him. I was seriously worried about Natalie. The last time I saw her like this was when Tom left to join the band. Nothing has ever been this bad with her and I was honestly petrified. But I knew where she would be. She would be on her way to the house we shared with the boys to either pack up her stuff and go or to go and destroy everything she saw that reminded her of Tom. Either way, I had to get there and fast.
I stood up off the floor, gathered all of my things and walked out of the door, but not before looking back over at Tom stood in the middle of the room and saying
"I hope you are happy Tom. You broke her. You destroyed the person she was. Every single night she has a nightmare about the same event in her life. The day you left, she is scarred because of the things you did, and now, she is either leaving or breaking things, both of which are not good."
I texted the boys and told them to meet me at the house. Within 10 minutes I was outside the door of the house with the others, apart from Tom and Seev. I could already here the smashing of glass and the tumbling of memories with them. We waited until Big Kev came just incase things turned nasty. We slowly walked into the house, me first and checked downstairs. Nothing. We then split up and checked upstairs. I was looking in the different bedrooms when I heard Jay shout;
"GUYS! SHE IS IN HERE!"
We all raced toward the direction of the voice and found Jay staring at Natalie as she held Tom's signed Oasis guitar over the balcony. We all knew how much that guitar meant to Tom and this would just destroy him. I started edging my way forward;
"Nat. Put the guitar down. You don't want to hurt Tom that much. I understand how you are feeling but doing this wont help. Please chummy, please." I was crying at this point with Max by my side and I think Natalie noticed to as she gave Nath the guitar and joined me on the floor, us both crying.
We heard a voice from downstairs. It was Tom. I felt Natalie tense up next to me but I kept her close. Tom made his way into the room we were all in.
"Guys?! What's going on?"
"Well Tom, we walked in here to find Natalie holding your signed Oasis guitar over the balcony. She was going to drop it."
Jay. Why did he say that? Fuck!
"SHE DID WHAT!! NO MATTER WHAT BLOOD WE SHARE AND ALL THAT. SHE WILL NEVER BE MY SISTER! OUT OF EVERYTHING, HOW COULD SHE DO SOMETHING SO WORTHLESS AND SELFISH! DAD WAS RIGHT! SHE WAS A MISTAKE!"
Tom just exploded and I swear I felt Natalie heart next to me break instantly.
