Nicole Nightingale

41: hidding the truth

"What we going to do?" Ellie whispered.
"Don't say any thing to any thing" james says. "This will only make it worse for all of us".
"I have killed my own dad!" Ellie said breaking down and shaking.
"Ellie look it's ok he will be fine we are going to take him to the hospital and he will get better." I comfort her we all rush downstairs where the ambulance arrives and alfie is in tears.
"We can't tell him" i mumbled to all of them.
"No just stick to the story he fell and it was an accident" james said.

We get to the hospital and dad is there lying as if he is lifeless. What if he is gone? As much as james hated dad and most of us did... he never desevred to die.

Younger nicole
I walked into the living room. Everything seemed fine, james was shut off in his room, alfie, nathan and ellie where all with mum.
"Ah darling, your father will be down in a moment you could ask about them dance lessons" she said.
"Can i do dance lesson mum?" Ellie asked excitedly.
"When your older like nic" mum nods.
"I will go up and see him" i said i went up the stairs and i heard yelling, father and james arguement. I head towards our room.
"You remember, this moment was because of you and your stupidity" he says.
"I wasn't being stupid father.. i am what i am" james says.
I heard it a slap, i wanted to run to james yell at him to stop.
"Tell no one and lie about what ever i am doing or you will see me wish you will never have been born" dad says and he comes out of the room so i rush next to the bathroom pretending to walk out.
"Nicole" he says.
"Dad, i wanted to ask...if i am allowed to start dance lessons" i mumbled.
"Ah darling of course you can" he smiled. "I think also your nose needs to stay out me and james problems too, so if you want your dance lessons, you prove that i can trust you?"
"Trust me?" I asked clueless. "Father i have no idea what is going on here"
"Oh of course you do, i suggest you stop your silly act now" he smiles.
"Yes dad" i nodded.

All this time i had no long needed to worry about his presious violent act now there was no need to keep it secret for him, he doesn't desevre secrets to be kept just for him.

We got to the hospital and alfie was there in the room, ellie couldn't stay in there she was more upset rather than any thing.
"I can't do it!" She sobs. "I can't face it".
She ran outside and i followed her.
"Ellie look it's ok" i said and gave her a hug.
"How can it be ok?" She asks. "I think i killed my dad".
"Shh. Dad is strong he won't be dead" i tell her.
"Miss nightingale?" Someone said and we both turned around.
"Hi i am here to tell you about your father".
"Oh ok yeah of course" i nodded.
"Well.. it seems your statment is wrong". The DS said
Mum and james came out side.
"Statement? He fell it was an accident" i frowned.
"No it seems he was pushed." She hesitates.
"Pushed, surely.. your wrong!" I gasped.
"No she isnt wrong my darling" mum says.
"Mother" james mutters.
"Well if you know any thing" she said.
"Yes we will let you know" i nodded and she left."That was close!"
"Yes indeed mother couldn't keep it off her part of not saying any thing" james sighs.
"It's showing that we are going through he was pushed and i am going to say i did it" mum says.
"No mum" ellie says.
"Yes ellie i will as i mother i need to be more protective i need to protect you so i am going to go down with it" she nods. "You don't desevre to go to prison".
"Mum's right" i said hugging her again. "As much as you feel like you should own up it will only drive you insane to be stuck in prison".
"Thank you all of you" she smiles weakly."now let's all get back inside".
So we all go back to alfie and he has tears streaming and i hugged alfie.
"The doctor doesn't know any thing yet" he says.
"I know you want him to be ok" i whispered. I looked at them and if any one knew it was ellie.. he would hate her forever. So of all costs alfie can't know the truth.
