Locklyle Broken Up? Nah

ch 15

3rs person pov: Lucy

Lucy thought it was nice to be back with her friends again. Lockwood was the sweetest guy ever. Although she knew all of this already, it was still nice to have it again. After all the madness with Zach, she was so worried that she would be stuck as a single mom, and her kid end up just as fucked up as she is. They were sitting in the living room, Lucy showing Quill pictures of Jake so he could decide which ones he wanted to show his parents, when the little cutie himself walked in. "Hey big guy." Lucy gushes as he crawls up onto the couch next to her.

"Hi mama."

"Tony did a pretty good job getting him cleaned up." Quill said scrolling through Lucy's phone.

"If I didn't think he would do a decent job, I wouldn't have let him do it."

"Mommy awe we gunna stay heya oah go back to Aunt Mawy's."

"Do you want to stay here?" He nods.

"You need to work on his 'R's."

"He's only 4 Quill give him some time." Lucy turns back to Jake. "Then I think we'll work on staying here."

"Weally?"

"Yes, and we really do need to work on your 'R's."

"Hey Luce." George said walking in.

"What's up?"

"I think I've figured out a hearing aid type thing."

"Cool, how can we test it?"

"Well you said the skull came back, we can just use him."

"But it's light out, it's at my sisters house and we don't have a large jar do we?"

"I might, and we can go get it."

"He'll probably be salty about me sealing his source the other night and I don't really want Jake hearing him again."

"Oh come on Luce! One of us can take him to the park or somthing then. I really wanna test this out!"

"Fine." Lucy feels a tug on her sleeve. "What's wrong sweetheart?"

"What awe you talking about?" She pulla him into her lap.

"You remember that voice that was saying bad things the other night at Aunt Mary's?" He nods his head. "Well mama has to test something to see if it helps her hear it again. And I don't want you to have to go through that again." While she was telling him this George starts laughing. "What's so funny?" She asks him with a glare.

"Just you talking like a kid, to a kid. You actually sound nice." Lucy covers Jake's eyes while hugging him to flip off George. "Just go get Skully."

"Skully!? You gave him a nickname!?"

"You gave it a gender."

"We saw him when we were on tue Other Side, we know that it's a boy plus we know that he's a guy because when we were on the Brickerstaff case, I asked if it was some chick and he was offended my me asking it it was a girl."

"Why do you still remember that?"

"I don't know, the point is, you went from experimenting on him to giving him a nickname."

"Jesus Christ chill your tits, it's fine."

"George! You can't talk like that around childred, or even just a kid." Lucy could tell he was about to make a stupid comment.

"Just go."

"I need to talk to Lockwood first."

"About moving back in?"

"Quite possibly." He smiled one of the biggest smiles Lucy had ever seen out of him. "Jake's happy with how things are going and I've always loved it here, so it might just happen."

"Awsome."

"So let me talk to my doork of a boyfriend, a.k.a. your boss, then if and when we get something worked out then I'll go get the skull."

"Well go find him."

"He was gunna take showa then come back down." Jake said from my side.

"Thanks big guy." Lucy turned back to Quill. "Gimmy back my phone."

"One more minute." He said scrolling through my phone.

"At this point you're probably lookig at pictures from when Anth and I first went out."

"They're so cute but cringy, I mean look at this." He said turning the phone showing her an old picture of Anthony with his head on Lucy's shoulder kissing her cheek, with his arm wrapped around her. Lucy had her hand on his biceps, they were so young and happy. Lucy could not wait to take pictures like that with him again.

"Oh come on, that one's actually cute."

"But cringy."

"You're just jealous."

"A little." Anthony walkes in right as he admits it.

"You're actually admitting something?" Lucy shows him the picture.

"Aaww babe! We're so cute!" He said smilling before kissing her cheek like in the picture. "Come with me, I have a suprise." He said tugging on her arm.

"Okay, okay I'm comming." He drug me up to his room. "What is it?" She had to laugh at his eagerness. They sat down on his bed and he pulled something out of his knight stand.

"These are yours," He held up both the necklaces she left behind when she broke things off. "I thought I was crushed when you left, but then I found these on my pillow... it was almost really bad."

"You mean you almost...?"

"Yeah, but I went back on my antidepressants and I had to be watches constantly for six months. Luckily George caught me bringing the knife up to my room."

"You don't need more scars from cutting." (Not suicide) He pulls her into a hug.

"I know baby, but it's okay, I'll never do it again."

"I love you."

"I love you too sweety." He kissed her again. "I know it's really sudden, but do you want to move back in?- And don't feel like you have to because of the... you know."

"I know I don't have to because of that, but Jake is happy here and I've always loved it here. I'm down for moving back in. Although that means moving all of my stuff again." He grones. "I didn't mean all of it at once."

"Good, you have a lot of crap."

"Half of it I got from the devorce, plus I think he put like bricks in some of those boxes, I didn't pack any if that."

"I would say we go through it first but that would mean more work and if he did we can build something with the bricks."

"I don't think there'll be enough for that."

"We'll see."
