Family Portrait | J.S

Enough!

Lucy's POV

I walk into the house after an exhausting day at Amoré headquarters and picking the kids up from Oli and Melanie's, Mŷa has been bugging me to see her father for the last few weeks and he has flaked on her everytime they've made plans to spend time with one another. My heart breaks every time I hear my little girl cry because her Dad is constantly letting her down.

"Mummy, when is my Daddy coming for me? He promised we were going to Disneyland so I can meet Donald Duck" Mŷa asks me for the hundredth time and I kneel down to my little girl's level to break to her that Dad won't come unless he is able to get his shit together and stop drinking in self pity.

"Well...."

"Surprise!" Will jumps out of Joe's office wearing a Mikey Mouse costume and Luke runs over to him and tackles him down with a hug as it's been a few days since we last saw Will as he went back to New York to pick up Caleb from boarding school.

"Uncle Will" Mŷa runs over and gives him a hug and I smile at my kids excitement thanks to their amazing Uncle and one of my best friends, who's always been there for me and this family; I am lucky I have Will and Arden Darbyshire in my life.

"Are you coming Disneyland with Daddy and Me?" Mŷa asks and Will lifts her up into the air and she giggles before he puts her on his hip.

"I'm sorry  baby, but Daddy can't come because he's not feeling very well. But guess what?"

"What?" Lucas and Mŷa ask simultaneously and I watch their uncle interact with them in awe of just how much they love each other. 

"I am taking you to not just any Disneyland but Disneyworld in Florida!!!"

"Yay!!! Did you hear that Mummy?! Uncle Will is taking me to Ordia!" Mŷa says and Will and I chuckle at her pronunciation of Florida. Will smiles at me and I grab onto his hand and I mouth a thank you before giving him a kiss on his cheek.

"Yes sweetheart, and are you gonna be a good girl for your Uncle Will?" I ask my little girl and she nods her head like a bobble head and I give her a big kiss on her forehead

"Alright, you best get packing then Madam. Luke, you gonna go with them?" I ask Lucas and he shakes his head and I furrow my eyebrow surprised that he is passing on the opportunity to spend the weekend with one of his favourite people in the world.

"Its aright Mum, let Mŷa have some bonding time with Uncle Will. Besides, someone's gotta keep an eye on you now don't they?!" Lucas says as though he is a grown adult who is going to keep watch over me who is a rebellious teenager. Will laughs at Luke's response and I roll eyes.

"Bye Mummy, Bye Lukey. I love you." Mŷa hugs her brother tight and he places a soft kiss on her cheek before she runs over to me and hugs me with her tiny arms, the warmth of he embrace  makes my heart melt and kiss her multiple times before letting her run to hold her uncles hand.

"Alright, Princess Mŷa. You get the special tiara." Will says before placing the Tiara on her bright blonde hair that she got  from my Mum and she smiles, showing off the couple of teeth that are missing making her look even cuter that she already is.

"Alright Uncle Will, lets go to Disneyworld!! Let's go, let's go." Mŷa tells excitedly before running out of the door with her small suitcase,     Will and I watch Mŷa run out of door and we giggle watching this four year old girl bursting with energy and excitement.

"Thank you so much Will, you have no idea how much this means to her; and to me too." I say as I wrap my arms around Wills torso as I'm too short to reach his shoulders, he places a kiss on my head before kneeling to Lucas' level and reaching his pinkie out.

"I promise that when I drop your sister back home, its you and I. All week, okay?" Luke nods his head before locking his pinkie finger with Wills and giving him another tight hug.

"Okay. Now go, before Mŷa explodes." Luke says before releasing Will from his embrace and Will pecks Luke's forehead.

"Love you Squirt."  Will yells to Luke before running out of the door and carrying Mŷa on his shoulders.

"Love you too. Bye Mŷa, have fun!"

"Have fun baby, Mummy loves you." I say before Luke closes the door and I tackle my son before placing him on my shoulders and walking through the hallway and into our living room.

"So Lucas William, what do you say we order a pizza, raid all the cookie dough in the freezer, put on our onesies and watch every Friends episode ever made huh?! How bout that?!" I Suggest before throwing Luke off of my shoulders and onto our couch, attacking him with tickles and he squeals; laughing our house down until I grow tired too and collapse beside him.

"Sounds fun. I'm glad it's just you and I, Momma. It feels like its been forever since we've hung out just the two of us, I've missed it. "

"Me too baby boy, me too." I reply and kiss my son on his temple. Two hour fly by like seconds and we hear the door open and close, then a loud clatter before Joes voice echoes through the hallway as he swears under his breath; I roll my eyes and stand up from the fort Luke and I built and walk into the hall.

"What are you doing here Joe?" I ask my ex-husband as he picks himself up from the floor, he sways from side to side unable to stand up straight as he is drunk once again. 

"I'm here to get my little girl, we're going to Legoland."  Joe says as he holds the wall as support to stand up straight, Luke walks into the hallway and glares at his father in ferocity.  

"You were supposed to take her to Disneyland, and your two hours too late. She's already gone to Florida with Uncle Will, you know the person who's been more of a father to me than you ever have." Luke says angrily with his arms folded and Joe's eyes soften as though he's seen the hatred in his sons eyes when he looks at him for the first time.

"You're lying! MŶA! MŶA, Daddy's here! Let's go to Lego Disney! " Joe says as he tries to barge past but Luke blocks his way. Joe pushes his son out of his way making Luke hit his head on the floor.

"Lucas! You bastard!! If you've hurt my son, so help me God I'll kill you!" I yell before Joe also collapses to the floor, I help Luke up and I turn around to find Joe still on the floor not moving.

"Joe get out of this house! Now, Joseph! Get out!!" I yell and Luke's shakes me and I stop yelling and realise that Joe is actually not moving, Luke walks over to Joe and shakes him.

"Dad this isn't funny anymore, just go. Dad? Dad? Daddy wake up! Daddy?" Luke begins to shake Joe multiple times and realised that he is actually unconscious, Luke screams and begins to cry.

"Daddy wake up! Mum, call the ambulance!" Lucas screams and I run into Joe's office and grab the telephone dialling 999.

"Daddy, Im sorry! Please, just wake up! Daddy!!"

Woah!!! Joe's unconscious, but why? What is happening to Him? Is he gonna be okay? Well, just gonna have to vote and put this in your libraries to never miss a chapter!! If this gets 35 or more votes maybe I'll give you two chapters the same day.
