Hate, Depression and Nathan Sykes.

Chapter 21

NATHAN'S P.O.V

I sat patiently in the waiting room. With Jay by my side. I kept my head in my hands. All I could think about was the same sentence in my head of what that disgusting woman said..

"I'm her mum.."

"I'm her mum.."

How can a mother be so cruel and cold hearted to her own flesh and blood, too someone that's so special in their life.

Jay tapped my shoulder, taking me out of my deep thought.

"I'm going to get a coffee. Do you want one?"

"Please.." I replied, the side of my head leaning again my hands. He got up and walked away. I watched him, slowly walking down the corridor and around the corner until he was out of my sight. I sighed and looked down. Locking my hands together between my legs.

"Mr Sykes?"

I jumped up and looked at him with hope. "Yeah?"

"Come with me."

LUCY'S P.O.V

*flash back dream."

I was laying on the battered up sofa. Cuddling up to my cardigan to keep warm. The horrible smell of the stains on sofa hitting my nose.

I tried to close my eyes but I heard foot steps coming closer to me. I squeezed my eyes together. Almost like the next beating wouldn't hurt as much.

I waited and waited for the beating, but nothing came. I opened my eyes and saw Lydia standing there, smiling.

"Hi" she said sweetly.

"What do you want?" I asked, bluntly.

"Just wanted to chat." She told me.

"Why? You're the reason I'm here."

"I know, and I'm sorry. I had no choice"

"What do you me-"

"Shh.. Keep your voice down" she commanded.

I lowered my voice. "What do you mean?"

She looked down, and back up at me. "It's your mum, she's out of control. She's been threatening me. But that doesn't matter. Lucy, I promise you we'll get you out of this."

So many thoughts were goings through my mind. "I don't believe you."

She looked at me, full of sympathy. "Remember when we were younger? I used to come up bamps on a Sunday. Nan would cook a Sunday roast while bamp took us swimming? Then when we came back.. We would sit around and eat together. Then spend the whole night watching movies. Was Nora ever there? No. Growing up Luce, you were my bestfriend. Why would I want to do this to you?"

I smiled a little. I felt a tear trickle down my face, as did she. She jumped into me and gave me a hug. "I'll get you out of this. No matter the cost"

"LYDIA, WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING IN THERE" a manly, hut womanly voice shouted from the kitchen.

"Nothing, be right there."

*flash back over*

My eyes fluttered open. I looked around to see I was in a bright room. Oh my god. I am dead.

"Lucy?" I looked down to see Nathan looking at me. Ok, so I'm not dead.

"Oh my god Lucy" he jumped up and pulled me into his arms. It hurt so much, but I didn't want to let go. He went to pull back.

"No, one more minute" I whispered.

We stayed a little longer then he pulled back, grabbing my face and kissing me. Just one long kiss.

"I missed you so much." He told me.

"You saved me." I told him..

"Nah.."

"Sh, I saw you."

"You were awake?" He asked me, looking surprised.

"Up until the part were you came in."

"Luce, I love you so much." He told me, grabbing my hand.

"I love you too."
