No matter what happens I'll always stand by you

Finding out how Ava feels

I was heading up to the girls dressing room hoping that I hadn't ruined everything between us. Karen offered to come with me but I knew that I had to do this alone. When Stacey, Amy and Ava got to the dressing room, Amy and Stacey offered to stay but Ava told them that she'd find them in a bit.

Ava: "hi"
Janette: "hi"
Ava: "what did you say after I'd left?"
Janette: "the truth. Aljaz already knew as I'd told him when we found out that I was pregnant with Noah. Plus he found your birth certificate"
Ava: "how did they take it?"
Janette: "most of them were in shock and didn't know what to say"
Ava: "why hadn't you told them before?"
Janette: "honestly because I didn't think I'd ever find you again and talking about it upset me. You ok now?"
Ava: "yeah. Amy and Stacey managed to calm me down eventually"
Janette: "any idea what caused you to react like that?"
Ava: "I've never been good in crowds of people, especially when I don't know them"

I didn't know what to say. I didn't realise how bad it would affect her when I just told everyone without  pre warning her first.

What Ava said next shocked me but I knew that she had to do what was for the best for her.

Ava: "I think it's for the best if I message Ashley to come and get me"
Janette: "where does that leave us?"
Ava: "I still want you in my life if you want to be but it feels like everything has moved really fast and my head needs to catch up"
Janette: "if that's what you want"

Ava left to find Amy and Stacey to tell them what was happening and wait with them until Ashley arrived.
