I dont hate him, I envy him. - patty walters

Y/n's POV

I knelt to the ground covering my head with my hands trying my best to avoid the flying objects being launched at me. This isn't a rare occurrence, it's actually pretty common for me, which sounds bad out loud but it's not so bad..

"You're just fucking like him! I do everything and work my ass off for you and you want to just leave?!" She screams in my direction, "I need a job!"

"You're just like your father!" This got under my skin, my father left to be a rockstar. He didn't have the finances to care for me which I understand. I didn't hate him; I envied him, I wanted his perfect life and not to be stuck in this shit hole with the woman I call my mother.

"I'm nothing like him! I will never be like my father!" I couldn't help but scream at her, I just wanted to start my own life and not have to worry about keeping my ass safe in my own house. I've been saving for months on end maybe even years, enough to get me out of here for good.

"You're leaving so you are just like him!" She retaliates, she always has seemed to compare me to my father, is it because I look like him? Could be, I personally don't see the resemblance but there must be something there.

I grabbed my suitcase and took it out to my car, I didn't take a second thought of leaving this place behind. I didn't plan on coming back to visit either, I wanted nothing to do with her and her insane moments.

I had been sneaking away to my apartment to get things set up before I moved in, I still have to buy a few things but not much. I have a stable job and now a stable home, I'm glad to be finally out of that toxic household. Me and bear, my dog, are finally safe..

I stopped by at the store on the way, I scoped the shelves grabbing a few things as I walked by. "Hey party will you grab me those please?" I didn't pay any notice to the other people in the isle thought I should have..

I went to grab the box of cheez-its from the shelf only another hand reached for the same box, I quickly pulled my hand back in surprise. "Oh I'm so sorry." I looked up locking eyes with a set of piercing blue ones. We both stayed stationary not bothering to say anything, we both knew who each other was..

"Why do they look alike?" I heard someone whisper breaking me out of my trance, "I-uh I'm sorry," I walked around him wanting this all to be a dream, this can't be happening.

Patty's POV

I locked eyes with someone, they looked just like me.

There's no way in hell.

Y/n..

"Patty who was that?" I could only watch them walk away from me in a hurry, I answered to Ronnie, "my child.."

"That's y/n?! Well what are you doing? Go after them!" I shook my head slowly, "they walked away from me, they clearly didn't want to talk." My heart did ache thinking of the worst, maybe they just didn't know how to feel..

"Pat they may not have even recognised you!" I sighed knowing he was right, I hand him the cart and walk in the direction of where y/n had previously walked. What am I doing? Did I want to see them? No, of course I did.

I couldn't stop now even if I wanted to, my feet just lead the direction and lead me right to y/n..

"Y/n?" I asked almost scared of their response. What if they want nothing to do with me? "Mhm that's me."

"Hi.." I sigh with a wide smile, my child is so beautiful. They're all grown up now.

"Hi Pat.." they smile widely, I wanted to know everything about them, "I tried to get in contact with you but your mother shut me down every time. Would you be okay if I gave you my number to stay in contact with you?" I asked hesitantly.

"She's not my mom, she's nobody to me.." I frowned at them when they lost their smile at the mention of the woman. "Is everything okay with her? If you don't mind me asking.." we exchanged numbers as we spoke which helped moved things along and no room for awkward moments between us.

"Yeah, she's just borderline abusive.. but on the bright side I moved out today so I don't have to deal with her." I couldn't help but smile at their positivity in such a shit situation, they remind me so much of myself. "I'm glad you're out of there and are safe. If you need anything, anything at all please give me a call. It would be nice to hear from you.."

"You too.. dad." It was nice to hear the name I craved to hear from them. "You're so beautiful and all grown up." I rested my hand on their cheek and couldn't help but pull them in for a hug.

I felt them melt into my hold and hug back tightly, "god, I love you so much.." I felt tears sting my eyes, happy tears. Very happy tears.

"I love you too." I never thought I'd ever see them again, especially not in the middle of a fucking Tescos-

"Hey love, I thought you had left us." I spin around at the voice of my wife, Dottie. "Oh Dottie, this is my child, y/n.." Dottie's eyes widen in surprise and excitement. I have to admit I often ramble on about y/n to her and she happily sits and listens. She has wanted to meet y/n for a long time now but I truly thought it would never happen due to the circumstances.

"So you're the y/n I've heard so much about?" Y/n smiles, "yeah.."

"Oh I'm sorry how rude of me, I'm Dottie, patty's wife." I dreaded the reaction of y/n at the title of 'wife' but they smiled even wider, "nice to meet you."

"I should uh, get going my dog is waiting for me at home." Y/n explains holding you their basket of things, "of course, keep in contact." I teased poking their side, we laughed and said our goodbyes.

I turned to Dottie and kissed her head softly, "how do you feel Pat?" She asked as we go to find the rest of the band. "I feel good.. so good. It was nice to see them."

"I'm glad you're happy."

I'm so happy.
