I wake up with a gasp, drenched in sweat, I had a nightmare, my first nightmare about my attacker. All I could see was his evil eyes shining in amusement at my fear, his voice— I shiver, God, that horrible voice that will stay with me until the day I die. I notice I'm alone in my bed, but there is an Everton shirt laid on my chair, it has my name and Justin's number eight on the back...245Please respect copyright.PENANADkXx1Hk82b
245Please respect copyright.PENANArSTUsX9soR
I laugh at my caveman, I also notice a note with long-stemmed rose on the table next to my new shirt, I lift the rose to my nose inhaling the scent as I read the note justin left for me...245Please respect copyright.PENANAC3hYtSuIeD
245Please respect copyright.PENANAUuR1imQTLV
Hey beautiful,245Please respect copyright.PENANAkmmttd1aiZ
I hope you slept well? I'm sorry am not there with you now. I had to leave early to train before the game. Here's your new shirt as promised, I was going to write JUSTIN'S with my number but thought that's a bit a caveman, Ha! 245Please respect copyright.PENANAJje4AFJ0GE
Anyway, I've arranged for transport to pick you and your dad up. You'll be brought around the back to avoid the press, where I will be waiting for you. I love you, baby, See you soon245Please respect copyright.PENANAF4ss8pRxHs

Putting down the note and the Rose, I leave my room. Walking down our stairs slowly, I hold my ribs, as they're a little tender this morning, I wince each step I take down the stairs 245Please respect copyright.PENANAdkkOv6STU8
245Please respect copyright.PENANAUDcnHrtmRp
"I thought I heard someone," Dad says as he meets me at the bottom of the stairs "You okay, baby girl? Do you need your pain meds?" He must notice my grimace 245Please respect copyright.PENANARVIMCbKD8x
245Please respect copyright.PENANAnCyxQ8DK5v
I nod "Please, am a little tender this morning" I smile at him. Dad eyes me worriedly "Maybe I should call Justin, tell him you won't be going, you need your rest," he says getting his phone from his pocket.245Please respect copyright.PENANAyQOe0YgoCe
245Please respect copyright.PENANAPy0SBN0Cdu
"No, dad, I wanna go. Am fine, I promise, I just need my pain meds then I'll be right as rain when they kick in" I say putting a hand on his phone, He looks at me warily in the eyes, trying to figure out whether or not to call Justin, or just let me go the game...245Please respect copyright.PENANAhMiwpbQEEB
245Please respect copyright.PENANAG3e7LZbBfG
He sighs "Fine, okay, let's get you your meds—do you want something to eat? You didn't eat your tea last night" He says as he gets my meds from the medicine cupboard 245Please respect copyright.PENANAnf2l7twbVA
245Please respect copyright.PENANAng9AgsXrZg
I nod as my stomach growls in response "Am starving, I'm sorry about leaving my tea, I must have been more tired then I thought. Was mum okay? I know she went to so much trouble making it" I ask worriedly245Please respect copyright.PENANAWYVExTL3DX
245Please respect copyright.PENANAqxzR1R9o8i
"Of course, baby girl, she knew you needed your rest. So," He claps his hands grinning "What are you feeling for? Maccies? Friar Tucks?" He asks excitedly.245Please respect copyright.PENANAMoY1AljpiF
245Please respect copyright.PENANAPVk7KjqADv
I laugh, the man is as bad as me for food "Let's go for friar tucks, can you ask them for a full breakfast with extra toast. Oh, and a pure orange juice, please." I say licking my lips 245Please respect copyright.PENANANuUUWmWstY
245Please respect copyright.PENANAW9okOvUnuE
"I've got that just eat app on my phone, you reckon they're listed on it?" He asks looking at his phone245Please respect copyright.PENANAvJ1vkpw8ot
245Please respect copyright.PENANAKrHqNJaiop
I shrug "Our school order from them too, for staff dinners. I think Jill orders from her phone" 245Please respect copyright.PENANAotL3eubiWN
245Please respect copyright.PENANAaFTDioPi6A
"Yep here it is, don't even have to step out my door" he laughs gleefully 245Please respect copyright.PENANAHzYxHmecOm
245Please respect copyright.PENANARe90BU760w
I laugh "What time do Everton kick off, dad?" I ask as I take my meds245Please respect copyright.PENANAC3xVYv0U0b
245Please respect copyright.PENANA65ndKv14Ep
He looks up at me from his phone "It's 1 o'clock kick off, baby girl..." I look at the clock "It's 10.15, so we've got plenty of time" I say 245Please respect copyright.PENANAFCNeSz4xs7
245Please respect copyright.PENANAtygsIs8jtw
"Did you get your shirt from lover boy?" Dad teases245Please respect copyright.PENANA4VL3ZsKPrK
245Please respect copyright.PENANAmC8q7r2IrN
"Yep" I grin "Did YOU?" I tease245Please respect copyright.PENANA4qGfvSU2Yq
245Please respect copyright.PENANAO0lcLz22M8
"Yeah," He grins then frowns "Wait, hang on he's not my lover boy" He says adamantly 245Please respect copyright.PENANAW3o8GoGVol
245Please respect copyright.PENANAk89i6L11JT
"I know dad, am just messing with you, Calm ya farm" I laugh "What does yours say on the back?" I ask 245Please respect copyright.PENANAUVa7VmsLlB
245Please respect copyright.PENANA0rbaFitTxO
"Paddy, number 1" he boasts "Did he go caveman on yours?" He teases 245Please respect copyright.PENANAKIINhF0ShM
245Please respect copyright.PENANAGtSOqE4sUA
"Not really, Mine says Eva, number eight" I smile shyly "Oh, He said he has arranged transport to pick us up too—shit, he didn't say what time," I panic245Please respect copyright.PENANAgYX6x8JwoA
245Please respect copyright.PENANABTZPG9Bdaj
"Chill baby girl, the car will be here at 12.15. Traffic is most likely going to be a twat, so we'll leave extra early" Dad explains245Please respect copyright.PENANAnJAeMiuU8q
245Please respect copyright.PENANAiDkY46i6Wu
20mins later, there's a knock on the door "Food," Me and Dad say happily, picking up his wallet dad goes to the front door. I hear him talking to the delivery lad, Thanking him then shuts the door.245Please respect copyright.PENANAllP00yoTpg
245Please respect copyright.PENANAFBWqFhMjpg
"Never guess who's friar tucks delivery boy—well man," Dad says coming into the kitchen 245Please respect copyright.PENANAJlSDD1JGHK
245Please respect copyright.PENANAiF0pxN0PDC
"Who?" I frown245Please respect copyright.PENANAE54JpCINjs
245Please respect copyright.PENANA9kKOLG49Rj
"Someone I used to go to school with, God, he's aged more than I have," He says "That bastard fancied the fuck outta your mum as well" He growls "Don't think he recognised me either" He muses as he gets a faraway look in his eyes.245Please respect copyright.PENANAjnInzXrwEu
245Please respect copyright.PENANAz61wiXRQ8R
"Dad, what's wrong?" I ask 245Please respect copyright.PENANAq1cSIRONHk
245Please respect copyright.PENANAAFh5Fvzmh0
"What?!? Oh, nothing, baby girl. He creeps me the fuck out that dude, always has. Anyway, let's eat eh? We got us a game to get to" He says excitedly but his eyes hold a look, a look that he's keeping something from me. We start to eat, but I make a mental note to ask dad what the delivery dudes name is, and mention it to Justin once the game is over. Once we ate our food, I started to get ready. I had to make adjustments to my shirt for my cast. One side of my top is being kept together by nappy pins. Thank god our Catherine was here to help, cos if she wasn't I would of have to have asked dad, And that would have been awkward as shit. Doing what I could with my hair, or what's left of it, dad had gave me the idea of a comb-over, so gently I brought over my hair from the opposite side of my stitches so it covered them just enough and then I was able to throw it up in a ponytail, finishing my look, I put mascara and lip gloss on, leaving my face bare.245Please respect copyright.PENANAsg5jc0tKyq
245Please respect copyright.PENANAvSI78rTCvX
A car horn beeps from outside "Baby girl, our rides here" Dad yells245Please respect copyright.PENANA53V4QW6xfb
245Please respect copyright.PENANAk1o8NqC9oY
"Coming" I yell back, I look myself over again in my mirror, I huff you look like shite, Eva...I shake my head, Thankful justin wasn't here to hear my negativity about myself "Right, let's go kick some fuckin arse," I say to my reflection and meet dad at the bottom of the stairs, he's grinning as I hit the bottom step "You Ready, baby girl?" Dad asks 245Please respect copyright.PENANAM1ATtwD93j
245Please respect copyright.PENANAKjrU1RucZH
"Yep," I reply grinning excitedly 245Please respect copyright.PENANAT5LEIbc7MT
245Please respect copyright.PENANAvTLIiiMOc4
I text Justin from the car, which by the way, is far too fucking extravagant for my liking. Me: "Hey baby, We're on our way. We didn't need to arrive in a Benz, I'm not used to driving around in such extravagance. Taking a cab would have been fine, but Thankyou. I can't wait to see you, I love you Xxx"245Please respect copyright.PENANA6XYdSnqHbH
245Please respect copyright.PENANAJGpHAtcE8P
I sit looking around the beautiful Benz Justin had sent us to be picked up in. I get a text message from Justin 245Please respect copyright.PENANAJtzpSVh9dU
245Please respect copyright.PENANAPOnxd1uUW0
Justin: "My woman will always travel in style, bet paddy's loving it? I can't wait to see you too baby, I love you! Gonna need my good luck kiss before kick off too Xxx"245Please respect copyright.PENANAKpBDGM1zmF
245Please respect copyright.PENANAKazHvkKq9D
I reply, Me: "You are so fuckin sweet! Of course, dad is in car heaven. Not that you'll need the good luck, but my lips will be ready and waiting Xxx"245Please respect copyright.PENANAERzKHRYtc4
245Please respect copyright.PENANAbgzSnnFvxC
His reply is instant, Justin: "I'll always need your kisses baby. See you soon Xxx"245Please respect copyright.PENANA2tGSY6oo9W
245Please respect copyright.PENANAIa1OMQ5Lmp
I sigh happily and enjoy the ride, as I make my way to the man I love...
