Roses at Midnight 21
"You will never know how sorry I am."
The older girl stood there somewhat pitifully in front of her own seven year old daughter, knees shaking with her face still evidently fresh from a sob fest. She watched as her adopted daughter's face turned symapthtic, yet fearful and heartbroken as tears reclaimed a place in her eyes. Slowly, the older approached, allowing them to pull each other close into a trembling, sobbing embrace, holding like they'd never let go.
"A-and..." the brunette hiccupd into her mother's shirt, "you'll never know how much I love you."
Once you get really angry, it is really hard not to completely drop when you've run out of energy.
James couldn't agreed with that more at the moment.
He allowed his new girlfriend to thumb his open palm as he slumped back in the chair, watching the clock glazily as it ticked onto 4 AM. Subconsciously, he registered that was getting late/earlier/whatever it was, it was dark outside; he didn't care. Obviously Lucy didn't either, because after glancing at the clock, she guided his bangs out of his face, becoming a little more worried when he didn't bat her hand away from his hair.
For the first time a while, the rocker chick was truly terrified.
"Hello, I'm Ronnie Schmit live in front of the Las Angles Hospital..."
Camille watched as the reporters talked about the reports she'd given them, the three mens' faces flashing on the screen as they rushed on and talked about interviews coming soon with the family. Sighing softly to herself, she slipped inside of said hospital, tucking herself under the arm of her own boyfriend, who'd passed out at about 2 AM. He stirred ever so slightly, lacing his fingers with hers and squeezing, and she just kissed his cheek.
She was so strong, even without him...she wasn't quite sure why that bothered her.
*Perspective shift*
Niether of the two tramatized girls were prepared for any kind of interview, but the older was being begged into one.
"You look faboulous, Miss!" Ronnie pleaded with her, the newsman behind her filming away eagerily, "please, do tell us what it was like for you when you first realized that young Primrose was gone!"
The seventeen year old could see her boyfriend start trying to pull the cameraman off, but she wiped her face clean of emotion instantly, waving the blonde boy off suddenly, "I thought that life was never going to be the same. If I lost her, my life would just be an empty void filled with previous loss and heartbreak. She's the one thing that's kept me strong; she's my savior and my rock. Without her, I am truly nothing."
And with that, she shoved them out and held her sleeping daughter back into her grasp, vowing to never let go again.
"I understand that you are now dating Carlos Garcia from the worldwide popular Big Time Rush, Miss Falls," Ronnie spoke excidely to the youngest teenager, "how has that affected you thus far?"
"Honestly, I haven't known him for that long," the light-browned haired girl replied steadily, yet softly/shyly, "I mean, he's a real sweetheart. It's a honor to possibly love him."
"How cute! Do you have any relationship to young Primrose, and how does the event make you feel?"
"Well, Ronnie.." and suddenly, her light blue eyes darkened as she got a look of bravery and of darkness across her face that normally hide, "I know exactly how she feels."
Terran was not amused to see his photo plastered on every TV screen in and out of America.
"We better hit the road, boys," he spat out his tobacco know, snuffing out his cigar and sliding back into the driver's seat, "we got busted."
"What kid?" his best friend of nine years, Jeff, inquired gruffly as their newest victim finished passing out from the clorine pressed to her small nose, "the brunnette?"
"Yes," Terran scowled bitterly, reveving the engine and waking Willy, who was the orginal leader of the small gang and ended up getting kicked up and half dead until he was found by the two best friends, "she was the Big Time Rush's chick's daughter."
Scowling, Jeff muttered, "Well damn."
"Don't worry. We'll be off the map by sunrise."
