A/n: Next chapter will be the last one. I've already been asked to write a new story and someone told me what she'd like it to be about. If you want me to write something, feel free to share! x
''Mom? '' We can hear Mariana say. I let out the breath I had been holding.
''In the kitchen.'' Stef says and Mariana walks in. At first she looks shocked but then she just looks confused.
''Long story.'' I say before Lena or Stef can reply.
''Let's go upstairs.'' Lena says. They walk out of the room and Stef get her phone.
''Mike? I know it's late but can you come over? Thanks. Okay bye.'' And she hangs up the phone. She continues on my shoulder where Lena left off. I wince in pain.
''Sorry love but this needs to be clean and since you don't want to go to a hospital right now.'' She says and I look down guilty.
''We were so worried. Why didn't you say anything, we could've helped you.'' She says. I have no idea what to say to her and luckily I don't have to because the doorbell rings. Stef stands up and checks if it's Mike before she opens the door.
''Hey.'' I can hear him say and a while later they walk in. I give him a small smile and he sits down to the kitchen table while Stef finishes up my shoulder.
''Do you want to talk about what happened?'' He asks me. I take a deep breath and tell everything. I also tell them I suspect Lucky being the one that told the men where I was. When I'm done there is a silence. It's broken when Lena walks back in. She smiles at Mike.
''I'll go to the hospital and see if he's still here. You stay here and I'll be back in the morning. We'll figure out a plan.'' Mike says.
''Thank you.'' Stef says and Mike leaves. Lena places a glass of water in front of me and put her hands on my shoulders from behind. We all stay like that for a while. After a few minutes I can feel a tear rolling down my face. Followed by another one a while later. I quickly wipe them away but another one is rolling down again. Lena wraps her arms around me. I turn around and break down in her arms. We stay like that until I pull away.
''I'm sorry.'' I say.
''You have nothing to be sorry for.'' Lena say and she places a kiss on my forehead.
''Let's get you to bed. Mariana is sleeping in Jesus' and Brandon's room.'' Lena says. We walk upstairs and we all go to bed. I change in some PJ pants and a white tank top can't sleep. I keep thinking about everything that happened and the burning pain in my shoulder is keeping me from laying comfortable. Around 3AM I go downstairs and sit on the couch. I must have fallen asleep because the next morning Lena wakes me up.
''Have you been here all night?'' She asks.
''Since 3AM, I couldn't sleep so I went downstairs. I must have fallen asleep on the couch.'' I say and I stretch myself out. Together we sit down on the kitchen table and start breakfast. Soon Stef joins us.
''Good morning. The kids will be down in a few. I told them a bit about what happened. I hope that's okay.'' She asks me.
''Sure.'' I say and a few seconds later Brandon comes in followed by the rest. They sit down and there's an awkward silence. I excuse myself and walk to the bathroom. On my way back I hit my arm on the door handle. When I sit back down Callie looks at me and gasps.
''Your shoulder is bleeding.'' She says and I look at it, my white top has turned red on the top of the wound.
''Let's fix it.'' Stef says and she takes me to the bathroom. She fixes it and gives me a new shirt to wear. When we get back the kids are upstairs and Mike is sitting next to Lena.
''You ready?'' He asks me and I nod. He explains the plan they have. It would take place this afternoon. He tells me they have arrested Lucky. Jason and Nickey weren't involved. I sigh. I just wish this could all be over already.
