Lucas
I hate that word. The only thing it means to me is that someone is using me. That was all the woman that gave birth to me did. She didn’t love me, she just used it against me.
“Lucas, baby, if you love me then you’ll go and get my medication.”
“You love me don’t you, Lucas? I promise I’ll make you nice big breakfast in the morning to make up for dinner tonight.”
I accepted every word that came from her mouth when I was little. What child wouldn’t? It’s ingrained in you to trust your mother, that she only has your best interests at heart. Well, not for me. The woman who gave birth to me only ever thought about herself. Herself and her drug addiction.
My parents learnt very quickly that telling me they loved me had a bad effect on me. From the day they figured that out, they’ve always made sure they’ve shown me how important I am to them. They are the kind of parents kids should have. I know it must have killed them both over the years not to tell me how they feel. Especially my mum; she wears her heart on her sleeve and wants everyone to know. She will tell me now occasionally, but I’ve kind of got used to her voice saying it so it doesn’t quite have the same effect as it did when Lilly said it.
I spent a lot of years disappointing them. I wasn’t aware of it at the time but I know now that I was probably trying to push them away, to prove to myself they didn’t want me like they said they did. But they stuck by me, no matter what I threw at them. They’ve been there to pick up the pieces and to get my life back on track.
I’ve never told them how much they mean to me. I’m often aware I probably should, but I really hope they know.
When I eventually make it home later that day I find Lilly, dressed and ready to go in the kitchen, looking out over the garden. I stand in the doorway watching her. From the back alone, she looks stunning. The dress hugs her curves like a second skin. I run my eyes down the diamond buttons that run down the length of her spine before taking in her slim waist, curved hips and long legs. Her hair has all been pinned up and it shows off her creamy, perfect neck. I fight back the urge to walk up behind her and sink my teeth into that perfect skin, to mark her for the night so every fucker at the event will know she’s mine. I don’t think she’d welcome that after what I’ve probably put her through in the last few hours. So instead, I continue to stand and watch her, until she turns around and I scare the shit out of her. The sight of her from the front takes my breath away as well. She is beautiful and far too good for me, I think for the millionth time since meeting her.
