Finn's Baby- Complete

Finn pov

It broke my heart to see my baby girl cry knowing there was nothing I could do about it. I wanted so much just to keep hold of her and bring her home but I knew that wasn't possible. I knew if I were to do that then the police would come knocking and I would never see her again. If Rosa was a normal woman then the police wouldn't care, however she's not. Rosa's family is one of the richest in England. That worried me so much more

It was 2pm when I got back to the betting shop. I was only allowed a few hours with her and I wasn't gonna argue. Not right now anyway. I had only just got her back and I wouldn't let my temper push her away

"I was gonna ask if everything went well but I'm guessing by your fissog it didnt" esme said

"It went great. We went up to charlies yard. Curly was there and he let us ride a horse. We spent hours getting to know eachother and I loved it" i explained

"Right. Well can you tell that to your face because it looks like a moneys arse" polly said

"We were in the car driving her back to Rosa's house and she started begging to come home with me. I obviously couldn't bring her back with me so I said goodbye and then she started crying saying she wanted to go home with me. Anyway, as I was trying to comfort her, rosa came and snatched her away as she shooed me into the car. Lyd was screaming and crying for me when I drove away" I said with my head in my hands. Arthur came over and rubbed my shoulder whilst handing me some whiskey

"You look like you need it" he explained. I thanked him and downed it straight away

"Normally I don't agree with all the killing you do but can't you just....get rid of her" lizzie said

"Kill my own daughter?" I said shocked she had even suggested it

"No not her. Rosa. Ya know, the mother from hell. If she was gone then surely Lydia would be in your custody" she explained. OK now I understood

"We can't. She comes from one of the richest families in England. People would notice and we have power, but her father has royal blood" Tommy said

"Royalty?" Arthur asked shocked

"Lydia's grandfather is like 50th in line to the thrown on something. Doesn't sound like much but the man has alot of money" I told them all in a huff.

"Fucking hell. So maybe killing her isn't the best option. But we have to do something because we all know what will happen" lizzie said.

"What's gonna happen?" Arthur asked

"She's gonna take Lydia away from me. Move back to London and send her to boarding school or something" I grumbled.

"Well the fact she got upset today, although heartbreaking, it atleast shows that she loves you" polly said. Somehow always managed to cheer me up. I smiled making everyone else do the same

"I'm picking her up from school on Tuesday and then she's having tea round mine. You can come and meet her if you want pol" I said.

"Are you cooking?" She asked

"No kitchen staff" I don't normally have alot of staff but Tommy got me a bigger house with more staff when we found out about Lydia. Mine was plenty big enough but he said kids need big gardens so I didn't complain

"Well in that case I would love to" she said. I smiled but then realised what just happened

"Wait a minute! Were you not gonna come if I was cooking?" I asked

"That's right. Didn't fancy food poisoning" she grinned

"Haha very funny" I said. After an hour, I went back home

Lydia pov

I woke up at 4oclock in my bed. One of the maids was was putting away some clothes when I woke up

"Oh Lady Lydia. I'll let the Lady of the house know you're awake" she told me

"That's OK. I'm gonna go speak with her myself" I said. She nodded her head and continued putting clothes away

"Is there anything I can do to help?" I asked before leaving

"Thank you Lady Lydia however not. I am grateful every time you ask but its my job, you're just a child" she said. I smiled at her sweetly and then made my way to my mothers room. She wasn't here. I checked a few other rooms before eventually finding her in the library. I honestly don't know why we have one. My mother never reads and I'm not allowed someone to read to me as im not a baby as my mother says.

"Mother, what are you doing in the library?" I asked

"I'm finding books which are a good weight for you to practise your posture" she said. That sounded more like her. I was made to put a book on my head for an hour each day and walk around without it falling off. Been doing it every day since I was 3 and not once have I done it without cheating. I always used the same books however they were in London.

"Oh. I was wondering if I might speak with you" I said trying not to annoy my mother as I was about to ask for something she was sure to say no to

"Very well but make it quick" she grumbled as she sat in a chair. I sat in the one opposite

"Erm...I was wondering...erm-"

"Don't stutter Lydia Rose it makes you seem slow" she scolded me. I nodded my head in understanding

"Yes mother. I was wondering if I could spend more time with my father. Its just, I have been told I will only see him weekends and a few hours of the weekdays but I don't understand why. When I'm here I spend the entire time with nanny Julie or a maid. It's not as if we are having quality time" I begged. Her facial expression didn't change the entire time I spoke. When I finished she said

"I don't want you here for the two of us. I do this because I don't want you to get too attached to a silly man"

"Attached? Mother, he's my father. I'm supposed to spend time with him and miss him. Please" I begged knowing it was no use. She walked over to my chair and slapped me hard across the face. Tears sprung into my eyes but I refused to let them fall

"If you ask again, I will get my cane and i will use it" she whispered in my ear. I shivered but nodded my head in understanding. She suddenly put on a very fake smile

"I'm having a party tonight so make your self presentable by 8pm." I needed to know what kind if party. One was boring and one was just terrifying

"Who will be there? Dukes and dutchesses, or your friends?" I asked

"My friends" I nodded my head sadly and walked up to my room. Great. That meant drugs alcohol and sex everywhere. Yes I'm 5 and know about sex but can you blame me. I spent the last year surrounded by gossiping girls some of which are much older than me and like to explain things to scare children my age. And it works the first time round. God I was not looking forward to this
