Helen had given birth to you when she was 16 turning 17 later in the year 1985, she was scared, terrified as to how she'd raise you on her own but as she looked down at the baby girl on her chest everything seemed to vanish. "Ma petite biche I'm your mama" a young Helen McCrory giggled softly as she gazed lovingly at her precious baby girl.

"Je suis là mon lapin ma petite biche" Helen spoke softly handing your hand as the two of you made your way to your very first day of school and to say you both were nervous was an understatement. "But mum..w-what i-if t-t-they d-d-don't wike m-me?" you began to cry "well then they're silly mon chéri" your mother whispered kneeling to your height kissing your forehead "and if they don't like you...which they won't just know mama loves you very much alright chérie?" pulling you into her arms.

Standing in your bedroom Helen couldn't believe her eyes it was like just yesterday you were four begging your mother to play dress-up with you but now you sat in front of your vanity. Sixteen and still struggling to put on your earrings "mama?" you asked looking at her through the mirror "sorry, yes petite biche?" Helen shook her head slightly "can you please help with these?" sheepishly lifting the earrings "of course dear" she made her way towards you. "James is a very lucky boy" Helen commented helping with your makeup "how so?" pinning your hair up "ton magnifique" she whispered looking at you in the mirror over your shoulder.

"Mum I'm scared" a nineteen-year-old Y/n whispered as Helen held you on the bathroom floor "I know sweetheart, I felt the same but whatever you do I will support you ma petite biche" she whispered kissing your head. "I want to keep it" you nodded into your mother's chest "okay

"She's beautiful" your mother commented handing over the babygirl "wow she's beautiful but so tiny" you giggled looking down at the baby "hey bug" Damion your mother's partner knocked lightly on the door frame before coming to kiss your mother and your forehead "any names for the little beaut?" he asked. "what about Elizabeth Helen-Rose McCrory?'' glancing up at your mother for her reaction "it's lovely thank you" she whispered trying to keep her tears at bay kissing your head.

"Do you love her?" your family interrogated your fiance Stevie "more than anything in this world" she responded without missing a beat "good because she's my little girl-" your mother started "our little girl and if anything happens to her, I just don't want you using her because she's young and beautiful" Damion butt in warning Stevie "I'd never dream of harming her or using her" Stevie admitted honestly. You stood behind him looking just as shocked as your mother until you jumped on him hugging him tightly to which everyone joined.

Today was the big day you were going to marry the love of your life with your family in attendance, your little sister and daughter were flower girls as your parents were going to walk you down the aisle. "Tu es magnifique ma petite biche" your mother smiled proudly entering the room Damion followed after "stunning dear" he complimented "are you ready mon chéri?" your mother asked "I think so" hesitantly nodding. "I can cancel everything if you want?" Damion asked "no I'm just a bit nervous" admitting quietly "Je suis là mon lapin ma petite biche" your mother whispered grasping your arm lovingly and kissing your head as you walk down the aisle.

"Are you sure? this can't be it, they can help can't they?" you cried "I'm sorry ma petite biche but there's nothing that can be done" your mother cried with you "but we can't be sad alright, I want everyone to be happy" your mother whispered kissing your head "but how can I be happy in a world without you in it mama?" looking up at her. "Because we will meet again but for now we must be strong" pulling you into her chest.

You had been visiting your mother so much that you had practically moved back in "I love you mum" you whispered kissing her head as she lay down with all the kids "I love you too ma petite biche" she croaked back as tears welled in your eyes "don't cry dove" she brought a hand to wipe a tear.

"I'd like to accept this award in memory of an amazing actress, brilliant mother, a great friend she was my biggest supporter, my best friend someone I could always go to my mother until we meet again" you cried as the crowd clapped crying for the loss of her.
