Secrets and lies (Waterloo road )

28

Neve woke up to the sound of crying. She rubbed her eyes and sat up, she looked down to see that she had a small bump growing. Neve hadn't told anyone that she was pregnant, everyone was more shocked at the fact kenadee had a baby that Neve wasn't noticed, no one, not even kenadee and Poppy had noticed that neve was pregnant. Neve grabbed a hoodie and slipped It over her small body and walked into kenadee rooms "Kenny? you okay?" neve asked. Kenadee looked to neve, she was tired, Emily had kept her up most of the night "she doesn't like me neve" neve smiled "she does, your new at this that's all" neve said as she picked up a crying Emily and held her, Emily stopped crying and kenadee sighed, "she likes you more than me" kenadee said crying "no, your tense she can sense it. your her mum and  she loves you" neve said as she handed Emily to kenadee. Kenadee held her and smiled down to Emily "im scared N" kenadee said. Neve sat next to her on the bed "there's no need to be, I wont let Adam hurts you, not again. Hes hurt enough people" neve said. She was talking about herself, of how kenadee wasn't the only one he had raped, he had raped neve and neve was struggling to make it through the day "yeah?" kenadee said "yeah, have I ever let you down before" neve asked "no"

Neve got to school, she spotted tom and he smiled at her, Neve wore a baggy jumper to cover her bump, she didn't want anyone to know about the baby. Neve didn't know what she was going to, she was terrified. "neve?" tom called from his classroom as neve stood in the hallway, Neve looked to tom, he frowned he knew hat something was up with her "come here" he said as he walked into his classroom. Neve sighed and followed him, sighing to herself "what's wrong?" tom asked "nothing" neve lied " I know when your lying neve, you forget how well I know you" tom said. He placed a hand on her cheek and neve smiled slightly, she loved his touch on her "im fine, im just tired" neve said. Tom looked to neve, he knew that she was hiding something. "you know I love you right?" tom asked, Neve looked at him with tears in her eyes. She hated the way Adam had made her feel. She felt so vulnerable and scared "yeah?" "yeah I love you neve mason, besides I wouldn't of risked so much for you if I didn't" tom said as he kissed her forehead "I....I have to go" neve said as she walked away. She walked down the hall and stood against a wall, resting her head and sighed, she didn't want to get close to tom again. She knew that she loved tom, but she didn't want him to see her like this, like a broken vulnerable mess. neve wiped away the tears from her eyes as Rachel walked around the corner.

"neve?" Rachel said to neve. Neve glared at Rachel "leave me alone" neve said as she walked in the opposite direction "neve, come back" Rachel called as she walked down the hall. She froze as she saw Adam, She felt as if she couldn't breathe. "Rachel" Adam said. Rachel glared at Adam "get out of my school" Rachel spat as neve took a step back "keep him away from me" neve said, she couldn't breathe. Tears ran down her face "why? what did he do?" Rachel asked "he raped kenadee" neve said. Rachel knew it was something to do with neve, she knew neve was hiding something. "neve" Rachel said as she sunk down to the ground. She pulled her knees to her chest "what did he do to you" Rachel asked as she knelt down to neve's level. Neve glanced around she spotted that a crowd had surrounded her, she saw her sisters in the ground. Poppy stood watching as kenadee pushed through and ran over to hr sister she knelt next to neve "neve, what happened" kenadee asked, she knew neve was having a break down "your not the only one he raped" neve sobbed as she tucked her head on her knee "he raped you?" Rachel asked as neve nodded, she felt completely broken.
