Thank you NightMage for reviewing my story! I was getting worried that nobody wanted to read my story. Just a warning, I might not be very fast at updating as school has started up again (2nd year University) and real life is going to be crazy for a while!
I was so glad when Dusty said that he would take me home with him instead of taking my to Grandmother's. For a brief moment in time I was happy. I was happy that I had a man that would respect my choices, who would never do anything just because it was in "my best interests'" Dusty is a good man, even though he doesn't see it, I do, I know that he is an honorable and caring person. I mean if he wasn't then why did he come and save me from dying in that glass coffin? When I saw my Da... I mean Craig; I was ready to ignore him. But he started to call his pet name for me, Lullaby...who calls their 18-year-old daughter Lullaby? It was Ok when I was 5, but now it seems stupid and immature, not to mention that I have always hated the name. But he started to try and justify what he did; he tried to say that nobody would get hurt and that if Dusty hadn't interfered, everything would be all right. When he brought Dusty into the one sided conversation, I was so angry. I couldn't believe that he would have the nerve to do that in the middle of the police station. So I laid into him, I just let him have it. I know that Dusty didn't think that I saw the look of surprise that he flashed, but I did, and boy it was funny to see the look of fear in his eyes! I know that Dusty couldn't believe the things that I was saying it must be hard to when all your life somebody has said that you weren't worth anything, and that you were nothing but a low life scum. But I'll get him to see that he isn't those things, that he is a good man, that he is a man worthy of any lucky girl's love. I just hope that I can be that girl...
"Come On Dusty, let's go home, I'm tired and I need to sleep..."
"Sure Luce, get into the car."
She needs to sleep she said. That means that she wants to sleep in my bed, she wants to snuggle down and sleep in my bed. Christ! I'm not a saint, I don't know what I'll do if we're all alone and she is asleep in MY bed. I just hope that Lily and Lucinda don't castrate me when they find out where Lucy was, because Metro's business is already in trouble, if the main investor goes missing, then I can count on not having a club to come home to, if I come home that is...
