Sorry for the long wait I've been busy.

Abigail's POV

I played with my bracelet as I waited  for Jake to come and pick me up. He's already five minutes late and he knows what my father is like when we're late.

Speaking of my father, I have no idea as to why he wanted to have dinner with us so suddenly.

I swear if he's proposing to that bitch of a girlfriend I will scream.

I can't stand her. For starters she's five years older than me.

FIVE.

She's only in it for the money, I know it. She wasn't rich when they first got together than one day she started to wear expensive clothes.

"Abby?" I jumped out of my seat and clutched my chest to see Jake standing in the entrance away "you scared me"

Jake chuckled and placed his hands in his jacket pockets "I called your name four times"

I stood up and straightened my dress "sorry I was just thinking" Jake handed me my bag "about what?"

I slipped into my coat and shrugged my shoulders "just some things"

We walked over to his car and got in "why were you late anyway?"

Jake tapped his fingers to the beat of the song on the radio "I was just visiting an old friend"

I nodded my head just as he turned in my fathers driveway "he's also joining us tomorrow night with a few friends"

It would be nice to have more than just Jake and I, trust me I love hanging out with him but sometimes it would be nice to hang out with some old friends. There use to be three of us but for some reason Dani has found someone else to hang out with.

"What's his name?" Maybe I knew him from school, yet again I don't remember a lot.

About a year ago I woke up in hospital really confused. I thought I was 17 but when the doctor told me I was 23 I was scared. How could I not remember anything?

The only thing they told me was that I was in a car accident and that I was in a coma for three months.

When I went to ask them what had happened the doctors would leave the room and when I asked my dad he changed the subject.

I even asked Jake but I know he's hiding something from me.

I saw him looking at me before getting out with me following behind "Harry"

I stopped in my tracks "long hair, green eyes" Jake nodded his head confused "you know him"

I nodded my head as I knocked on the front door "met him a couple of times"

He wrapped his arm around my waist just as the door opened.

Before you ask Jake is not my boyfriend, we are being forced together by our families. We've been friends for years since our families work together but I see him as my brother and he sees me as a sister. To make our families happy we have been pretending that we're a happy couple.

My dad smiled when he saw us and pulled me into a hug "it's so good to see you"

I pulled back just enough for him to pull Jake into a hug as well. I noticed the grim look on Jake's face and I had to bite my lip to stop myself from laughing.

"What's for dinner?" We walked into the dinning room to see a big lobster in the middle of the table "May made Lobster"

Too fancy.

I was about to speak when I heard heels against the floor and May stood out of the kitchen. She gave me a fake smile and pulled me into a hug and I nearly chocked on her perfume.

"How have you been?" Like you care.

I shrugged my shoulders as I sat down opposite my dad "we've been good"

My dad pointed his fork at Jake "treating my daughter good I hope" Jake nodded his head and smiled down at me "I treat her like a princess you know that George"

My dad took a sip of his wine before speaking "we brought you here for a reason tonight"

Please don't be getting married.

May placed her left hand on his and I nearly let out a sigh of relief when I saw no ring but then my eyes widened at the second possibility.

May had a huge smile on her face as she spoke "we're having a baby!"

I heard Jake choke on his food while I sat there looking shocked.

My father gave me a confused look "you're not happy?"

I stood up ignoring their stares and stormed out of the room and I could hear my dad shouting my name.

"Abigail wait"

I turned around pissed at him "of course I'm not happy! I haven't been happy ever since you met her!"

He shook his head "I don't understand"

I let out a dry laugh as I ran my hand through my hair, something I do when I'm stressed.

"She's 28! Five years older than me and you don't understand"

"If this is about your mother-"

I held my hand up with tears in my eyes "don't. You have no right mentioning her"

I looked over his shoulder to see Jake and May standing there watching us.

I shook my head "I'm leaving" I turned towards my dad "and don't expect me to ever be okay with this"

Harry's POV

I was sat in the living room with Kyle and Ryan who was currently setting his equipment up.

I looked down at my phone and flipped through our pictures and smiling at each one.

I could hear them whispering and I knew it was about me "why is he smiling like that?"

"Probably texting Abby"

I looked up when I heard a smack and saw Kyle rubbing the back of his head as Ryan looked shocked "you didn't tell me she was alive!"

"Didn't I?" Ryan shook his head "no you didn't"

Kyle shrugged his shoulders "whoops"

I stood up and walked over "find anything?"

They both avoided eye contact with me.

"Guys what's wrong?"

Ryan let out a sigh before speaking "I managed to get into her files but everything seemed fine apart from the Amnesia which could've been cured easily but left too long could be serious but we also found something else"

Just by the looks on their faces o knew it wasn't good.

But before they could speak I heard my phone go off and looked at it confused when I saw Jake's name and cancelled it but he called again straight away.

I clicked answer and held the phone to my ear to hear heavy breathing " you okay?"

"She's gone"

I stood frozen "what?" Jake cursed "her dad dropped a bombshell on her and she left and I can't find her"

I know exactly where she is.

If she was ever mad or just wanted to think she would always go to our little spot by the lake.

"I know where she is" I ended the call before picking up my car keys and leaving the house leaving Kyle and Ryan confused.
