Henry POV
I see the guy grabbing Abbie’s ass, and I feel my body shaking in anger. I close my eyes for a second, and I see Abbey walking away from him. I turn around and move fast between the sea of bodies dancing in the middle of the room. I go up the stairs and open the first door on the left. Without turning the light on, I lock the door. I take a deep breath resting my back and head against the door, and I turn around, turning the light on.
I look around in shock. This room is familiar. I walk to the small desk to find a photo of Abbey hugging the guy. They look younger. Shit. Is he an old boyfriend that came back to get her back?
Why is there a photo of them here? I keep walking around the room, looking at everything, and curiosity takes over. I open the small wardrobe in the corner of the room to find some clothes and her white converse shoes. I move my hands through the clothes hanging in the closet, and I find my long-sleeved t-shi
Let me know what you think
Abbey POV After getting home, I make myself a cup of tea and take my make-up off. I decided that today was a good day to just lay in bed listening to some music with a perfect cup of tea. I put some harry styles on and allowed myself to relax. I close my eyes, and I don’t know for how long I was out, but I must’ve ended up falling asleep because I woke up with Penelope bringing someone home. I can hear the giggles and the shushing with the loud drunken steps. I jump on my bed when I hear something crashing and breaking on the floor. Great. I can hear her laughing, and whoever is with her is telling her to shush. I turn around in my bed and put the music louder as I don’t want to hear her having sex. Nothing against it. It’s probably for the best, to be fair, but I don’t need that mental image. I close my eyes and allow myself to relax, thinking about Henry and hoping that tomorrow I will be abl
Abbey POV “Abs, look, I’m really sorry”, Leo says, and I turn around now, facing him. “You do realise what you’ve done, right? You understand how messed up this is?”, I ask raising my voice at him. Something I have never done before. We have never argued as much as we are arguing now. “I’ll talk to him, I’ll tell him, I promise”, Leo says, trying to hug me. “I am way too upset right now”, I bark at him, and he takes one step back. His shoulders go down, and his posture changes. “I am really sorry”, he says, walking out and disappearing from my eyesight. I am way too pissed off at him to let this go. Leo should’ve told Henry it wasn’t me in that bedroom, and to be fair, Henry shouldn’t be assuming it was me anyway. What the hell is wrong with the two of them? I crack on with the cleaning with my EarPods blasting some music. A couple of hours later, I start to feel
Henry POV It’s been a couple of days since the party, and I honestly don’t know what to do with myself. I know that sleeping with Penelope was a low blow, and now I have to put up with her constant text messaging even though I told her it was just sex and I wasn’t thinking straight. She keeps trying to call me and come up with excuses to see me; I hate clingy girls. I don’t like the idea of her doing this in front of Abbey. I was never meant to be caught leaving the house. Fuck I didn’t even know she was home. Why was she home? She was in the guy’s bathroom, and all of a sudden, she was in her house? Didn’t she sleep there? I start to get a little uncomfortable with my own thoughts because I am starting to think that maybe it wasn’t her in that room. Maybe he was shagging someone else. But why would he choose someone else if he has Abbey? Hell no, if he is cheating on her, I am going to kill the bastard. I don’t like the idea of her getting hurt by anyone, and I will
Hello everyone. I am sorry for the delay in updates; I have a horrible cold that has knocked me down to bed. I was still working until yesterday, but today I can't even get up. My voice is completely gone, and as I suffer from Asthma, I am struggling to breathe even with my inhalers.Unfortunately, I am not the only one sick right now. Both my partner and toddler have it as well.I promise to try and update today, even if it is a shorter chapter, but please be patient as chapters won't be as long or every day.Thank you all for your understanding love Peyton
Henry POVAbbey’s words keep playing in my head. Why was she saying I should listen to what Richie has to say? I will never forgive the bastard, she might’ve found a way in her heart to do so, but it doesn’t mean that I will.I keep turning in bed thinking how stupid I was and how I fucked up badly with Abbey, I need to come up with a plan to get her back. I just don’t know what right now. I try to fall asleep but it is worthless, I can’t stop thinking about her. I get out of bed and as I am opening the door I hear Alex in the corridor whispering. I slowly walk towards his room where the door is wide opened.I can hear shout whispering if that’s a thing, he sounds desperate. Maybe I shouldn’t eavesdrop but hell, he would never tell me what is going on and if he needs help I might be able to.I shake my head pushing away those thoughts and I clear my throat giving hi
Henry POVWe reach a small blue mini, I din’t know he got money for a car. He unlocks the door and we both get in the car in silence, he turns the key opening the windows a little as I adjust myself in the small space in the front seat.“Henry, I am really sorry mate”, he says and I nod my head without looking at him. I honestly don’t know what I was thinking asking him to talk.“I know”, I reply and he takes a deep breath.“Abbey asked you to listen to me didn’t she? She was such a good influence on you”, Richie says and I turn my head to look at him and I can see regret plastered all over it.“Yeah, and because of you I lost her”, I let out and he takes a deep breath.“It wasn’t just me”, Richie says and I frown looking at him.“Mate, your dad made me do it”, Richie says and I can’t help but laugh.“You’re telling
Abbey POV“Abs, come here, quick”, I hear Leo shouting from the kitchen. I run from my room to find him holding a tea towel on his hand and it is getting red.“Shit”, I let out and I walk to him putting pressure to his hand.“What happened?”, I ask and he looks at the knife with blood near the onions. Great.“Did you just chopped your finger off while chopping the onions?”, I ask and he looks at me with tears in his eyes.“Come on. I’ll get a taxi for us”, I say calling the taxi company.I grab our coats and we walk out of the flat, once we reach outside the taxi is already waiting for us. We get in and we rush to hospital. Leo is going extremely pale and I am getting worried on the amount of blood he is losing. How is it possible for someone to bleed so much cutting their finger?We reach A&E and Leo is rushed inside by the nurse on the triage office while I give h
Hello everyone. I am sorry for not updating, but unfortunately, I am not getting better. In fact, I am getting worse, and I ended up going for a visit to the hospital yesterday. I am waiting on some test results, and hopefully, by tomorrow, I will have some idea of what is going on with me. I understand you are all curious to know what is going to happen now in this story, but I am physically exhausted, and I am not capable of sitting in front of my laptop to write. I honestly hope you can all understand. Stay safe Love Peyton
Henry POV Today is our wedding day. It’s been four years since I proposed to Abbey and she said yes. A lot has happened sine then. We have grown up a lot together, we have been enjoying life together while she finished university and we ended up moving to London, Abbey found an amazing job opportunity there and I dropped everything to follow her. Luckily the company I work for has a company in London and I was sent there. I honestly can’t believe how perfect our life is. I am extremely nervous to see her as I stand here at the altar. We are having a small ceremony as we didn’t want anything big. From my family only mum, my brother and their plus ones were invited. I made sure to leave the Payne behind and I don’t care for any of them, If they find out I got married is their problem. Since everything that happened none of them made the effort to try and contact me, and honestly I think it was for the best becaus
Abbey POV Henry graduated yesterday, and it was a memorable day, both our families together as if there was no bad blood between them. It was absolutely incredible. I can’t even believe that is happening. Roxy came along to the event, and later on, Richie appeared, and I could see they broken up. I feel bad for Richie. He was completely crazy about her, but Roxy played with his heart and Leo’s, and now she is alone. Leo found someone that didn’t want to hide him. Roxy left early, and I have to say I am extremely disappointed in her. She tried to talk to Richie, trying to get back with him, but he said no, he loved her too much for all the pain she put him through. I really don’t blame him. You probably think I am a hypocrite because I forgave Henry for everything that happened between us, but at the end of the day, our love is unique, and I have never loved anyone the way I love him, and I know he feels the same. It was a mistake, a one time mistake that he made, while Roxy
Henry POV Abbey is coming out of the hospital today and I am making sure that everything is ready for her to come home. Leo gave me the key to their house and allowed me to move in with them. I haven’t actually told Abbey yet, but my financial circumstances are a little different right now. I am not using my dad’s money and I am definitely not using his name to get away with things. I finish making the bed with fresh bedding and I look around proud of my achievement. Her room looks and smells clean, everything is tidy and I have her favourite things on hand. I even got a mini fridge to have in her room in case she wants a cold drink and to have some milk as I got a kettle to have here as well if she wants a cup of tea while I am at work. I have a part-time job at a publishing company, I just deliver mail, b ut hey, we need to start somewhere and I am going to prove myself and make my way up. After all I am a studying business and I already have some ideas tha
Abbey POV “Henry”, I let out as soon as Leo walks out of the door. My heart is beating fast, and I am extremely confused. I know I like Henry, and apparently I liked him more than I ever thought it was possible. Unfortunately I can’t remember anything. I take a deep breath as I see him walking slowly towards the bed where I am laying down. He looks so sexy that it is making my mouth water. “I don’t want you nowhere near that guy”, Henry says, and I shake my head. Even though I understand why he doesn’t want me near Harry, I have to ask him why he did it, why he made his own sun suffer so much, how could he make his son miserable? Does he only love himself? Doesn’t he care about anyone else? “Henry, please”, I say, and he shakes his head while he wraps his fingers around mine and takes my hand to his mouth. My stomach is full of butterflies, and I feel like a youn
Henry POV I open my eyes and I feel like I have slept like a baby, I can’t remember the last time I had a good night sleep like this. I take a deep breath and I stretch my arms above my head and I can hear my bedroom door opening. “How did you sleep?”, mum asks walking in with a tray and it smells so good that makes my mouth get full of saliva. “Like a baby, thanks for last night mum”, I say as she places the tray on my legs after I sit up on the bed. Mum kisses the top of my head and assures me that that’s what mum’s do. If it is or not I am extremely grateful that she spent the night here giving me cuddles and strength to move on with my life and forget the hell my dad put me and Abbey through. “Come on, have something to eat and then have a shower, you have a girlfriend to go visit”, mum says as she walks out of the room. I look at the tray and smile. She made me a bacon sandwich with brown sauce, orange juice and coffee. She really does know me. A
Abbey POV "Mum, please stop crying. I am fine", I let out, but she kept caressing my cheeks and looking at me as if she would never be able to look at me again. "Do you need anything", Dad asks kissing the top of my head as soon as he walks back into the room. I look at the door, but Henry doesn't follow him. "Where's Henry?" I ask, and dad looks back at the closed door. "He was gonna make some phone calls, and then he will be here", Dad replies, and I look at the door. I don't know why I have this horrible feeling he shouldn't be outside. He needs to be next to me. I know we have only just started dating, and we don\t really know each other, but I can't think straight being away from him. Mum and dad stand next to me when I ask them again what happened, but they keep giving me vague answers, as in I was in a car crash. I try and remember why I would've been in a car, but I really can't, making me stressed. "Thank god
Henry POV “Hey”, he says and I am not willing to talk. I pull him into the room and lock the door behind me. “Henry, mate, so glad to see you’re okay”, Alex let out and I can’t help but punch him in his face. Alex falls back on his ass and his nose starts blurting out blood straight away. “Hey, get up”, I say and he looks at me while he is holding his nose with both of his hands. “You broke my nose”, he spits out “You’re lucky if that’s the only thing I am breaking today”, I let out while I pull him up by his t-shirt. I shove him against the wall and his eyes are wide up. “Fight me you coward”, I shout in his face. “I am not fighting you”, Alex says trying to walk past me but I punch him on his side straight into his ribs making him bend over and fall on his knees on the floor. “Fuck you”, I let out. “Henry, mate”, Alex says as he coughs. “I am not your mate, I am your worst nightmare”, I say lif
Henry POV “Oh, thank fuck, you’re awake”, I let out as soon as Abbey’s eyes open. I have never been so happy to look into those beautiful eyes. “What happened?”, She whispers, and I can’t help but let a tear escape my eyes. It’s not my place to explain to Abbey what happened, and I feel guilty as it is for her having to go through what she did with my dad, and I wasn’t there to protect her. I tell her I will go get the nurse and her parents, and she doesn’t protest about it. As they all chat, I keep my distance, but I keep my eyes on Abbey. I don’t think I will ever be able to get away from her, and I want to be next to her for the rest of my life. These last couple of days have been hell for me. Being awake and not being able to do anything to bring her back to me was slowly driving me insane. The doctor asks us to leave, and I don’t want to, but Devin gives me a small nod, and I follow him out. He has been through hell, and you can see on his face.
Abbey POV I open my eyes, and my head is aching, making it worse with the light. I shut them straight away, and I rub my head. Slowly I open my eyes, and I can see Henry sitting next to me with his hands on his head. I look around, and I don’t recognise the room I am in. It’s all white and bright. Where am I? “Oh, thank fuck you’re awake”, I hear Henry say, and I look at him. Worry is plastered all over his face, and his beautiful blue eyes look tired. He has dark circles around them as he holds my hand tightly between his. “What happened?” I ask Henry, that has now a tear rolling down his cheek. “I’ll go get the nurse and your parents”, Henry says, giving my hand a slight squeeze. I nod slightly, but it sends pain shooting up my head. I start to feel dizzy and like I am about to throw up. The nurse walks in as soon as Henry presses the nurse button, and she smiles, looking at me. “Hello Abbey, how are you feeling?”, She asks as she st
