Being the King of Pop's Daughter (sequel to Adopted by my Idol)

Chapter 40

23rd July 2011 - Lucy's POV;
I wake up and see a text off Mitch asking me to contact him  asap, I don't like this one bit. Amy's alcohol problem is getting worse and she's probably back in rehab again. I just want her to get better, I want her to be healthy and safe. One day it's going to go too far. I go downstairs and sit on the couch as I call Mitch.

"Hello"

"Hey, it's me"

"Hi Lucy, you haven't seen the news have you?"

"No"

"Good, I wanted you to know through us and not them"

"What is it? Is Amy back in rehab?"

He sighs and stays quiet

"Mitch? What's wrong? Put Amy on the phone?"

"She's gone Lucy"

"Gone where? Rehab? Missing?" I feel my eyes start to tear up

"She's passed away" He says through his own tears

"She can't be" I mumble as the tears now leave my eyes

"I'm sorry Lucy"

"How are you and Janis?"

"We're doing ok. We want you at the funeral if that's ok?"

"Of course it's ok. I wouldn't miss it for the world"

We finish the conversation and say goodbye before hanging up and that's when I burst into tears curling up on the couch. My best friend is gone, how can I live without her? She helped me through loads and she accepted me for me and not as a famous person's daughter from the very first second I met her.

*Flashback*
Elizabeth has brought me to a party which means I don't need to wear a mask that's great because it's so hot today.

"Hi I'm Amy" a girl with long black hair smiles

"Hi, I'm Lucy" I smile back

After we've talked and stuffed our faces we go to do some dancing. She said a bit about the fact my Dad is Michael earlier but I don't know, she could become like someone who uses me because of who my Dad is. Maybe if they play Dad's music then I can tell by her reaction.

3 songs later they start playing Billie Reaction and as soon as the bass started I was nervous. I really like Amy and hope we can be friends so I wanted her to be a nice person. When the lyrics started she didn't even react to it. She's a nice person, we're going to be great friends, I just know it.

*End Of Flashback*

Michael's POV;
I was eating breakfast with the children when I hear the news on the radio in the background. Amy has passed away? This can't be true. I get up and go to the call Lucy but as soon as I reach the phone it starts ringing.

"Hello"

"Michael, you gotta come over. Lucy won't talk or anything"

"I'll be straight there"

I grab my coat putting it on then I tell the children that I'll be back soon then me and the body guards leave for the short walk up the street.

"Granddaddy" Hartlyn smiles running over to me

"Hey cupcake" I smile hugging her

"You're in your pjs" She giggles tugging on my pj's bottoms

"So are you"

"Sweetie go and play then you can talk to Granddad later ok?" Omer speaks up

She nods ok and blows me a kiss before running off

"She's in here, all she has said is Amy is gone. The news told me the rest"

"I'll talk to her" I walk into the room and take a seat next to her "Hey sweetie"

She sits up and hugs me tightly. I hold her close and run my fingers through her hair

"She's gone Dad, I've lost my best friend. I can't do it. I don't have her to ring up and spend hours of gossiping with"

"I know sweetie, it will be ok. I promise it gets better"

She pulls away and looks at me "It does?"

"Yeah it does" I wipe her tears away "It's been 4 months since Elizabeth's death, I know she's not here anymore but she's still my best friend and I know when I talk to her she's up there listening. Probably laughing if I do something wrong."

"But she was trying so hard Dad, she really was trying"

"I know she was"

"She's 27, she was all set up to adopt too. I bet poor little Dannika is heart broken"

Omer's POV;
I was playing with Hartlyn and around 2hrs later Michael calls me so I make my way to the living room.

"How is she?"

"She's ok, just spend the day or watching movies or something. I'll have Hartlyn for as long as you guys need ok?"

"Ok, thank you"

"You're welcome, I'll get Hartlyn then we will leave"

I nod ok and walk into the living where Lucy is browsing through the channels. I sit by her wrapping my arm around her as she cuddles up to me.

"I love you" She speaks selecting a channel

"I love you too"

"Please don't leave me"

"You know I'll never leave you Hun"

"Will you come to the funeral with me?"

"If you want me to"

"I can't do it without you"

"Then I'll be there with you every step of the way"

Lucy's POV;
"Where's Hartlyn?"

"You Dad's, he said that he'll have here for as long as we want him to have her"

"Ok"

"Do you want something to eat?"

"Can we just order?"

"of course we can"

I move so Omer is able to get up and get the menu.

We fly to London in the morning, I can't believe this is happening. My best friend. Why did God have to take the good ones away?

My life is going to be so different without her, I can't bring her back so I just hope that she's up in heaven and she's happy.
