Lucy's POV
Today's the day that I go back to Arthur's house to collect my things. Not that there's much to collect. I didn't have much to begin with and I took most of my things with me when I left which of course resulted in that stuff being stolen.

I woke up to the smell of pancakes calling me from the kitchen. Ah so Jon is using the comfort foods method.

After breakfast me and Jon went down to the car and headed to my ex-foster dad's place.

A cold chill ran down my back as we pulled into the driveway. I had been assured that Arthur wouldn't be there but trauma doesn't make way for sense.
"You okay?"
"Can we just go in and leave as quickly as possible?"
Jon nodded whilst smiling comfortingly. He reached his hand across and squeezed my shoulder. A shaky smile worked its way onto my face and I got out of the car and walked to the door.

Once inside I walked to my room and grabbed the last of my things. Jon stood in the doorway starring with his mouth open.
"What?" I asked.
"I'm so sorry"
I frowned at Jon, confused. "What for?"
"I'm sorry that you had to live," he gestured around the room, " like this."
I didn't respond, I just looked down at the floor and continued gathering my stuff.

A short while later I finished getting my things and turned to Jon, "I'm done, can we go now?"
"I thought you'd never ask. I'm sorry that we had to come back here Lucy"
"It's okay."

He gave me a small smile and we walked back to the car.

Later that day as I was lying on the floor thinking about everything that had happened over the last couple of days I heard a soft knock from the door to my room. Looking up I saw Jon grinning excitedly, which I gotta say does tend to make one slightly nervous as to what he may have done.
"Hi Lucy, I thought, since you don't have many clothes here or anything that it might be a good idea to go shopping and so I called up some of the others and we're going to meet them up at the mall. What do ya think?"

I smiled, "I'd love to!"

Sorry for such a short chapter and a massive gap in between posting but I wanted to get something out and hopefully depending on what my upcoming assessments are like it shouldn't be too long until the next chapter.
Anyway have a great day, stay safe <3
