Hey. So this is my first story on here, and it's an idea that was inspired by the Gilmore Girls. In no way am I claiming GG or EastEnders as my own - all characters are owned by their respective creators. The story is basically about Ronnie running away to Walford with Amy, and starts her new life there. This chapter is a prologue, the next one may start with Amy being 16. If you like it, please review. If you don't, review and let me know what I can do to make it better. Hope you enjoy it :)
Ronnie held the tiny bundle close to her chest as she breathed a sigh of relief on the train bound for Walford East. She made it, she escaped, and she has her beautiful baby daughter with her. He couldn't hurt them now. It was just her and Amy, nobody else mattered.
She stared out the window, watching the world whizz by. Yesterday she'd given birth, under the threat of her baby being taken away to be adopted. Ronnie knew Archie would try to control her for as long as she was under his roof. She knew she repulsed him for getting pregnant. She knew he was disappointed and angry. He knew he couldn't hurt her while she was carrying her baby. But he knew he could ruin her life after the baby was born. Ronnie also knew this, so this is why twenty three minutes after she gave birth, she ran.
She thought of Roxy. Her sister, who idolised their father. She didn't see his true colours, and if it wasn't for the fact that Archie doted on her, Ronnie would have been worried for her safety. She thought of Glenda, the woman who Ronnie once looked up to, the woman who had once cared for her daughters, the woman, her mother, who left her. She thought of Amy, the moment she found out she was pregnant, Ronnie vowed she would give her the best life possible. She vowed she would never let anyone hurt her, she vowed she would always love and accept Amy for who she is. She's her family now. Nothing can come between them.
"Next stop, Walford East Station."
Ronnie carefully made her way to an exit, keeping her sleeping baby close to her chest. As the train slowed to a stop, she leant against the back of a chair and took a deep breath. She didn't know anyone in Walford. Where was she going to stay? Where was she going to work? And what about Amy? Ronnie mentally kicked herself for acting before she thinks. Again. The doors opened, and Ronnie walked onto the platform and towards the exit. She could taste the freedom, but the uncertainty of her future lingered as she pondered her next move. She decided to walk around, see if she could find anyone who could help. Amy stirred, moving in her blankets. Ronnie smiled, daring to believe that she brought this perfect little being into the world.
"It's just you and me, Amy," Ronnie whispered, looking up into the square.
Just you and me.
Pretty short, but this is only the beginning. Please let me know what you think. Thankyou for reading :)
