Penelope's POV

I shot away from Peter's, taking my feet off the ground in an instant to get to Ronnie's as quickly as I could before Mum did. I made it, no sign of Mum which was good. I got my keys from my pocket and prayed that the door wasnt locked. It wasnt!

"Ron" I shouted as I walked into the flat and dropping my keys onto the counter.

"In here chick!" Roxy shouted.

I walked into the lounge to find, Rox and Ronnie sat on the sofa and Jack looking rather confused.

"Anything the matter" I asked, taking my coat off and sitting down on the arm of the sofa, next to Ronnie.

"Why didnt you tell us?" Ronnie started sobbing.

I looked at Roxy, with horror. Shit! I was too late!

"Tell you what?" I walked over to the chair and slouched into it.

Jack looked at me with sterness.

"That Dad abused you" Roxy told me.

Tears filled my eyes, lord I wish that I hadnt left Peter's so quickly and be in his arms.

"Honestly Ron, Rox, Jack it was just a few cuts and briuses and nothing more. I swear!" I admitted.

"Swear On it!" Jack growled.

"Fine. I swear on Amy's life, mine and Pete's. HAPPY NOW!" I screamed, tears streaming down my cheeks.

I stood up, took my coat in my arms and marched to my room.

I shut the door and sat down on the end of my bed, pulling out my light blue laptop and logging back on and then to MSN.

I stared into the screen weather to tell my best friend or not, afterall she was Jack's neice and I couldnt say to much. Tears still fell uncontrably down my face.

I logged out of MSN before anyone else could talk to me, even though Pete was online. I turned my laptop off, slammed it under the bed and then getting dressed into my trakies for bed.

I laid myself out on the covers as Amy came in, layed beside me and wrapped her arms around me.

"Aunty Penny?" She sounded so innoncent, I just wished she was my daughter.

"Yes chicky" I kissed the top of her head.

"Can I sleep with you tonight?"

I smiled.

"Yes chicky you may" I pulled the covers off and climbed into bed with a very sleepy Amy still wrapped around me.

I won't let nobody hurt you
Won't let no one break your heart
No, no one will desert you
Just try to never grow up, never grow up


Oh dearr! :/ So Lauren's love for Peter has damged her friendship with Penny!

And I wonder why Penny is so keen to get rid of Glenda?

Reveiw as always. xOx
