p style="text-align: left;"strongThe second and final chapter! It turned out kinda weird, because I didn't have enough time to write this today.. Maybe I'll rewrite it later...br /strong/p
p style="text-align: left;"strongAnyways, this chapter's content is based in what's actually going on in my life and my fantasies about what I wish would actually happen (except for the abuse, thank God for that)./strong/p
p style="text-align: left;"strongAlso, Emil is really OOC in this chapter, but let's just say he's really pumped about Christmas, haha!/strong/p

No one even knew about the child or Lena's pregnancy. He was a child that came with the night. His hair a silver-like color and his eyes an unrealistic violet shade. Lukas thought his younger brother was the most beautiful being he'd ever seen. His big eyes, filled with wonder, as they stared up at Norway and tugged his hair a little. He looked like an angel.

He protected him from the nasty things that were roaming in and outside the house.

It began with one pill to keep her calm. Then it turned into five a day. That was when she started to lose herself. It kept getting more with every passing year. Lena had even tried to kill herself in a clear moment. She'd tried to slit her wrists with a kitchen knife. Amund knew something was wrong when she refused to come out of the bathroom, since she was - as he called her - 'an obedient little slut'.

Their grandmother was incredibly sweet, but not able to care for two boys anymore. They'd given her the space she needed to properly care for herself. They still visited her at least once a week./p

For the first few months, the Norwegian guy had let him be, because Mathias had told him he'd come back when he calmed down, but with every passing day Lukas hope seemed to fade away. Now Lukas had sent his former best friend an email, telling him how sorry he was and that he wished he'd come back.
