Heartthrobs and Secret Admirers (A Lippa FanFiction)

Chapter Twenty-Nine: Everything

Lin's POV:

Pippa and I have a nerve racking flight down to California. She was freaking out a little until she fell asleep on my shoulder. I'm happy to see her getting some rest, she hasn't gotten any in the past week.

I can't imagine what Pippa would be going through if I hadn't come. I owe Mandy and Chris a huge favor for watching Sebastian, without them I wouldn't be on the most important flight of my life. I would have been forced to leave Pippa on her own again. All alone looking for our daughter.

It was easy to forget Lynnette was my daughter too. With everything going on with Pippa and her memory Pippa was her mom and that was it. Sure it was only a few days but it counts. The first days in the world Lynnette didn't have me as a father, she didn't have a father. I was around but thats not the same. Pippa went through her pregnancy and the first couple days of motherhood alone. I can't let her do this alone also. I need to be here for Pippa.

I wake Pippa up as we touch down in Cali. We are greeted by a few detectives and officers working on the case then escorted to a car. We ride directly to the motel Rachel was seen at.

As we get closer Pippa's hands begin shaking, she keeps repeating that she is fine and everything is going to be okay. I can tell she is lying, she still doesn't think we will get Netty back. She has doubted the mission since the second day of searching.

"Pip. Everything is going to be okay. We are going to get her back." She just looks as be with tears in her eyes. "What's on your mind?"

"I know this is going to sound bad. I just don't want to get my hopes up too high. What if she isn't at the motel anymore? All of this will have been for nothing and-"

"We will worry about that if it happens. But right now let's focus bringing Netty home. Can you do that, for me?" She nods her head yes before looking out of the window for the rest of the ride.

I can't imagine what Pippa is going through, she hasn't just lost our daughter, she lost the whole life that she had and loved. I year ago she was engaged to Steven, she lost her fiancé but I never gave her a chance to mourn him properly. I played with her head when she was in a vulnerable place until she couldn't take it anymore and started dating someone else. But even then I didn't back down, I got her pregnant then left her alone. I broke her and Daveed up and was the cause of her leaving the show. After I came back I still made her miserable. I came back with another girl and cause her to go into an early labor that almost took her life. While she was recovering i played with her mind dropping hints of us being a couple. I'm the one who brought the kidnapper into our home and instead of being there for Pippa I tried to take my own life out of guilt. Everything Pippa is going through is my fault.

"I'm sorry Pip." She turned away from the window to look at me. "What for?"

"Everything. I'm sorry for everything."
