Holly found it impossible to sleep during the night. She was restless, and Allison was kept awake with all the tossing and turning. She signed loudly and flopped onto her back, annoyed that she was unable to sleep. Allison watched as the brunette stared up at the ceiling. What was she thinking?

"I'm going to prison." She said, continuing to look at the ceiling. 

Allison propped herself up onto her elbow and brushed a stray piece of hair from the brunettes face. "Don't be silly, everything's going to be okay." 

"I'm such an idiot. How could I be so stupid?" She questioned.

"Neither of us can change what happened, but all we can do now is hope that the odds are in our favour. You've got to be strong, for me. I love you."

Allison pulled her in tight and kissed the top of her head. The truth is, she had absolutey no idea what would happen. But she had to try and reassure her, it was all that she could do.

"I love you too." She whispered.

The next morning, there was a knock on the door around 11am. Both Holly and Allison were sat in the living room, instantly turning their attention to the loud bang on the door. The colour drained from Hollys face, she knew it was the police.

"It's all going to be okay." Allison whispered as Holly stood up and made her way to the door.

A few seconds later she returned to the living room with Officer Daley following behind her.

"As you know, Miss Freeman woke up a couple of days ago. We were finally able to speak to her this morning."

"And?" Holly asked, bouncing her leg up and down nervously as she awaited for the reply of the officer.

"The charges have been dropped." 

Relief.

"Y..you mean this is over?" She stuttered.

"You will both recieve a formal caution. It has been determined that both stories match, and it was nothing more than a fight that got out of hand. She admitted to everything you already told us, and if you would like to persue then we can look at charging her over the cause of your miscarriage, Miss Laine. She will most likely recieve a community service as well as a restraining order. As you admitted to being involved in the fight, we cannot determine that it was a totally malicious act. But she would recieve some sort if punishment."

"No..no. I don't want to press charges. I just want this whole thing to be over and done with."

"As you wish, ma'am. Is there anything else we can help you with?"

"No, thank you."

Allison agreed to walk the officer to the door, while Holly sat frozen on the couch. This whole thing was over. She couldn't believe she'd actually had some good news for once. When Allison returned, Holly was waiting in the doorway for her. She lifted her off her feet, wrapping her arms around the blonde. She spun her around happily and buried her face into the crook of her neck. They both erupted into fits of laughter and collapsed on the couch together in a heap.

"I love you." Holly spoke softly, looking up at the blonde who was laying on top of her.

"I love you too." 

"I can't believe she didn't wantto get me into trouble. How the fuck did I just get away with a caution?"

"I don't understand either, but it's all over with now. Maybe she finally realised the pain that she caused. Now we can forget about her. Me and you, we're the lucky ones."
