I wake up cuddled into Beau who's still fast asleep. Yesterday was another day of madness so it's nice to wake up to peace and quiet.

I check the time but it's only 6am. Are you being serious?

Today is the day I've been waiting for, for years now. The day I finally kill Peter Jenkins.

My eyes feel heavy but I don't want to sleep. I sit up attempting to wake myself up but fail. I quietly slide out of bed and go to the kitchen. I put the kettle on, coffee is needed right now.

I hear footsteps then Lucy enters looking half dead with Elsa hanging off her arm.

"Pass her here. Go back to bed." I smile taking Elsa out of her arms.

"Thanks Lydia. You're a star." she replies sounding completely relieved.

"That's what aunties are for." I chuckle. She gives me a weak smile then heads towards the stairs. "Hello cutie." I say in a childish voice to Elsa. She giggles in reply as I make her milk. Good thing I put the kettle on.

I make myself coffee as well as I wait for the milk to cool.



I finish feeding her then lie on the settee with her. A few minutes later and she's out fast asleep on my chest. Definitely my sister's baby, and Luke's.

Soon enough my own eyes begin to flutter shut and I'm asleep.

"Lydia? Pst. Lydia wake up!" A voice whispers causing me to frown. I open my eyes to see Luke peering over at me.

"What?" I mumble sleepily.

"Do you want me to have Elsa?"

"No, she's fine here. What time is it?"

"Eleven." what!?

"Oh shit!" I say shooting up holding Elsa tightly so she doesn't fall. I pass her over to Luke. I didn't realise I'd slept that long.

I run back to my room to get ready and Beau is still sound asleep hugging a pillow. I run and pounce on him startling him. He grunts in response pushing me off.

I hit the floor with a loud bang. Ouch.

"Bitch." I mutter climbing up off the floor. I grab fresh clothes and go into the bathroom for a quick shower. I get dressed after finishing up in the shower. I dry my hair and throw it up in a messy bun applying some natural make up. Today means business.

"Good morning." Beau greets as I go back into the room. He's still in bed but awake finally.

"Get in the shower." I order putting my phone to charge.

"Oooh bossy, what's up with you this morning?" he asks.

"You. You pushed me off the bed earlier in your sleep."

"Oops. I'm sorry." he attempts to keep a straight face but I see a smirk tugging at his lips.

"You will be." I mumble rolling my eyes at him. He laughs quietly and goes for a shower.

"Today is the day." I grin looking at everyone sat around. "Peter has a job about an hour from here, we'll set up in groups around the area then close in on him. No one shoots. I'm finishing this. Any questions?" I wait. One hand raises. Lucy. "Yeah Luce?"

"What if he shoots at us?"

"Shoot at him but don't kill him. I want him to suffer." I reply confident with my answer. Everyone nods taking in my words carefully. "Let's get going." I clap my hands and everyone shoots off in different directions gathering weapons etc.

All of us are wearing black so we recognise each other and we don't stand out to other people.

I make sure everyone has bullet proof vests on etc, nobody but Peter will die today unless his gang choose to protect him.

"Ready?" Beau pops out of no where making me jump. I hadn't realised I was staring into space.

"Uh yeah." I say quite dazed heading out to our cars. I pout realising my car is no longer here. I get into the passengers side of Beau's car which would normally earn an eye roll off me but I'm focused today. No silly mistakes.



About 45 minutes later and we had all surrounded the building Peter is in. A few of us have kept our cars close together but others have distanced.

"I want to go in." Beau speaks up startling me slightly.

"What?"

"I'm going to go in then you will follow exactly 10 minutes afterwards." He explains.

"But what if you-"

"I'll be fine." He cuts me off, his eyes as cold as stone. I've never seen this dark side to him before.

"Please be careful." I swallow the lump forming in my throat.

"I'm doing this for you. For us. Our family." He weakly smiles getting out of the car leaving me dumbstruck.

"Nobody follow Beau. I repeat, don't follow Beau." I warn everyone. We're all connected through a voice call.

"Gotcha." A few reply, others stay quiet.

I keep my eyes on the house but every so often glance at my phone checking the time. Five minutes, seven, ten and finally fifteen but there's still no Beau. I tap my fingers irritably against the door handle debating whether to move in or not, then I hear it.

A gunshot sounds from the house causing my chest to tighten.

Without any seconds thoughts I scramble out of the car.

"Go, go, go! Shit, everyone go!" I yell sprinting towards the house. I burst through the door to find Beau and Peter stood a few metres from each other both looking completely unharmed. "Beau." I say in relief smiling at him.

"Babe-"

"Lydia?" Peter half whispers edging closer slowly. I look from him to Beau not knowing what to do. A whimper emerges from Peter's mouth and confusion is written all over my face.

"Uh. Surprise?" It seemed like a good plan before but I don't know what's wrong with him. He looks upset.

"I'm sorry I killed you. I understand you've come back to haunt me."

"Oh, I-"

"Do you think I'm that stupid." He smirks raising a gun. I dodge just in time as he pulls the trigger.

"I know you don't think I am." I smirk back tauntingly.

"How did you know?"

"You shot me once before. I know what I'm doing now." I explain folding my arms. I nod at Beau slightly who raises his own gun. "Goodbye Peter."

A/N I'm not sure how long/short it is but I wanted to update before I go to #gotcake tomorrow:) I'm so excited! Has anyone gone or is going? Vote and comment. Sorry for any mistakes, Charlie xx
