God it feels like it's been forever, anyway soooo sorry for the late update, I've been so busy and I'm under a lot of pressure at the moment so it might seemed rushed or whatever.
…
"well get in!" the police man yelled at me. I rolled my eyes and bent down, sliding myself and charlotte in.
"move up then lard ass" I smirked then moves up about an inch. "oh sorry Alice!" I said whist moving up by the window more.
She got in and avoided eye contact with me as much as possible. As the car started I felt a hard poke on my shoulder. "what?" I snapped turning round to face Alice.
She smiled sweetly at me then it turned into a frown "I seriously think this is your fault" she said, sticking her tongue out at me. I sighed, annoyed "stop being so fucking childish" I whispered, covering charlotte's ears a little.
Alice narrowed her eyes at me "whatever, I shouldn't even be here, it's all brad's fault!" she mumbled just loud enough for me to hear her. My eyes widened a centimetre. "why? What did he do?" I asked putting charlotte on my lap.
She cleared her throat "he's gone out of control, he wants you….dead!" her voice cracked a little at the end and I chuckled "what's he going to do, he's still got 2 years left of prison" I replied remembering how he got sent down for suspicion of man slaughter.
She shrugged "he asked me to tell you to watch your back" she replied biting her bottom lip. The left part of my lips curled into a small smile "okay then, but like I said to him before we broke up, I didn't shag jay, I wouldn't dare!" I said making a disgusted face.
She laughed a little "who would?" she joked. I smiled along with her. "hey, no funny business back there" the police man yelled. We both looked at each other and grinned. "why we're you so pissed off with me when I saw you?" she asked me.
I gave her the 'duh' look. "well firstly, you ruined my whole plan, you told liam I had a baby and you were acting like a total penis" I argued. She held her hands up defensively. "you should've told your boyfriend you have a child" she said, rising her eye brows.
I rolled my eyes "dude, he's not my boyfriend!" I whisper/yelled. She nodded, obviously not believing me. "kids, we're here, now get out of the car" the police man tapped on my window. "Alice, I'm doin' a runner, are you coming?" I whispered to her.
She looked at me like a cereal killer "are you kidding me? I'm already in a whole lot of shit, but I'll keep 'em busy" she winked as she got out of the car.
I took a deep breath and got out of the car. Alice gave me a sly wink and then as the police man walked past her she stoke her foot out in front of her, causing him to fall.
I took the opportunity to thank Alice as I ran past her and the police man. "cheers. See you later" I yelled as I ran out of the property.
I ran as much as I could before I got too out of breath. I inhaled quickly until I was able to breath normally again.
I looked down at charlotte, her tiny face moving slightly as her eye lids fluttered shut. I smiled, proudly at my daughter, she is so beautiful, more beautiful then I'd ever imaged. She didn't deserve a life like mine, she deserved so much better. I cant let her hit rock bottom like I did.
She can't live on the streets, but…but I can't take her back. I wouldn't sleep at night knowing she was living with some random strangers.
"what shall I do?" I mumbled as I ran my hands over charlotte's cheeks.
"you shouldn't talk to yourself, people might think you've gone mad!" my head shot round to the person on my left.
"Tracy? What the hell are you doing here?" I asked trying not to draw attention to the baby in my lap. She sat besides me.
"next time you run off, make sure it's not you're home town" she said with a cocky smirk. I rolled my eyes a little and smiled along with her.
"it's not like I made it that obvious" I replied. She gave me a stern look "you know the police are looking for you, right?" she asked.
I took an annoyed deep breath and nodded "kinda', I'm not that important s'not like I killed someone" I remarked as the right of my lip curled upwards.
She hid a giggle and raised a brow at me. I smiled sarcastically at a woman that scoffed at us as she walked past.
"I have to take you back" she whispered as she rubbed my arm softly. I looked away then looked down at charlotte. "but-but….I just got her back"
Tracy looked down at her. "she's gorgeous, what's her name?" she asked. I smiled proudly "charlotte" I mumbled not really paying attention to what she was saying.
We sat there for ages in silence until I couldn't take it any longer. "Tracy, you and I both know I'm not going with you, so just go look for liam!" I snapped sliding up to the edge of the bench.
She grinned "mike caught liam hours ago, their meeting me here soon" she replied. My eyes widened and I held in a burst of laugher.
I stood up, clutching to charlotte. "well, this has been fun…..bye" I yelled as I ran off looking back at her. She wasn't running after me.
Before I could figure out why I was stopped on my tracks. Someone took a hold of charlotte and snatched her off me. "hey, get off her you pervert" I screamed then looked up to see mike glaring down at me.
I groaned deeply "hey, mike, can I have her back?" I asked sweetly whist battering my eyelashes. His eyes narrowed more. "Alex, you are in so much trouble" I opened my mouth to reply but I was interrupted by a police siren.
"oh for fuck sake!" I mumbled under my breath. As about 5 police officers ran up to me. "We've been looking for you!" one of them said with a sigh of relief.
He put his arms out for charlotte and mike raised her. "NO, please!" I desperately pleaded. He stopped in midair and looked at me. "Alex im sorry" he gave me a sympathetic look.
"oi, come on mike, have a heart" liam yelled over the sirens. Tracy walked up to us and nodded "she's only just got her back" she agreed.
He sighed "I can't" he said handing over charlotte to the police man. My jaw dropped and a hard lump came into my throat.
The police man smiled and walked back to the car. Mike put his hand on my shoulder and I brushed it off. "how could you?" I asked, tears coming from my eyes.
We were led back to the train station, mike had gone to the toilet and left us with Tracy the tension was unbearable.
"you okay" liam whispered softly to me. I gave him a confused look. "why do you care?" I spat. He smiled at me a little "looks like you need a mate at the moment" he admitted. I had to admit I probably looked pathetic.
Make up down my eyes, my skin red and puffy and my clothes; dirty. Not the best look. I smiled back "um thanks" I replied awkwardly.
I was this close to being free, having charlotte back! My the hell do adults have to ruin everything little fucking thing I care about. I don't how long it takes I will win this battle
…
Wow, that was bad….. Really sorry I'll try to make it much better next time!
