“Florence, you need to be safe, your children are the priority here. Not Dan or me.” His eyebrows scrunched together and she grinned.
“Lemme guess. You’d never forgive yourself if something happened to me?” She joked.
“Florence, I’m being serious. I want you to have the bulletproof jacket.”
“No-one is going to shoot a pregnant lady; my mum wants me for something. It’ll be fine.”
“She may not shoot you but there are others who would. Please. Take it. It’s not like I’ve never been shot.” He winked, but she knew he was scared deep down.
Florence placed her hand on his heart. “Please be careful, if something happened to you, I’d never forgive myself.”
“They are the priority, not me.” He placed his hands on her stomach. “You’re getting bigger.” He smiled. And Florence felt pity, in a different life these children would be Nick’s, she would be a fan of Bastille and they’d settle down and have a family but that wouldn’t happen because she had made a different choice.
“Nick.” She smiled.
“What?”
“I lo…” Florence clutched her belly. She stumbled backwards in pain.
“Florence! What is it?” Nick panicked.
“I’m okay, just a bit of pain, it’s gone now.” She stood up breathless.
“You need to go back to the hospital, all the stress isn’t helping, those babies want to be born too soon.” Nick informed her.
“We get Dan out first. It’s okay. Mum wouldn’t hurt me like this. Come on.” She tried to walk but it turned into a slight hobbling motion. Nick just stared at her speechless. “What were you going to say?” He said catching up with her.
“Oh, I’ll tell you later.” She linked his arm and they snook carefully round the side of the building that Nick had recently escaped from.
“We can do this two ways… go in find Dan, escape maybe beat some people up… or we surrender and hope that’s good enough and escape later.” Nick suggested.
“I have a different idea…” Florence looked at Nick.
“What is it?” Nick looked around and that’s when Florence injected him in the neck. “I’ll surrender.” She whispered. “You’ll be asleep very soon, don’t try and save me. And I love you Nick. I love you.” Nick slid slowly to the floor holding onto Florence.
