Female Celebrities Imagines Book 2

Mum!Davina McCall x Reader (Part 2)

Y/n's POV

It's been a year since I found out the truth and with Nicky and my parents help I had moved up to Scotland where I work as a lab assistant actually doing dna cases instead of just requesting them. It feels good putting my full knowledge to use and it's been nice getting away from the chapter of my life where I was questioning everything. I have, mostly, everything sorted out in life and I haven't looked back once. Closing my eyes as I relax back into the pillows I laugh when my dog comes bolting into the room and jumps on me excitedly meaning that someone's just pulled up outside and right enough not even a minute later someone's knocking on my front door. Getting up from the bed I grab my hoodie and pull it over my sports bra as I make my way downstairs, opening the door with a frown when I see a very familiar face standing there. "Holly? What... why are you here?" I ask her as I move aside for her to come in and she does so with a small smile, laughing when Max runs around her feet happily. "Bed Max." I command and he runs back upstairs making me shake my head at him before looking at Holly again.

"Mum told us the truth." She states and I raise an eyebrow at her making her groan as she falls onto the sofa much like I did a year ago which makes me chuckle slightly, maybe we do get some of our traits from Davina after all. "After you left she became weird, like really weird. She started looking through this old box and was really secretive about it, over the last few months she's been talking about the past a lot and saying that she regrets it. We just thought that she meant all the drugs and whatnot until last week when she lost it on Nicky asking where you were. She was full on screaming that he was keeping her daughter away from her and... she's going out of her mind trying to find you y/n." She explains as she sits up on the sofa and scrubs her hand over her face making me sigh. That would certainly explain why he sounded so stressed when he called me last week despite the fact he'd said there was no complicated cases on Long Lost Family.

"How did you get this address?" I ask her as I sit across from her and she rubs the back of her neck slightly making me chuckle. "You somehow managed to talk Nicky into giving you it didn't you?"

"I did, well Tilly did but please don't be angry at her. She just wants to try and bring her family together fully." She says with a sigh and I look at her for a moment before moving over to the drink cabinet and pouring myself a small glass of wine. "I don't know what happened between you and mum and I'm not going to ask you to tell me but please give her a chance to make it right."

"No. I'm sorry Holly but no. She closed that chapter of her life forty one years ago and she told me quite clearly that I was a chapter she didn't wish to reopen or have you guys know about. I'm finally moving on from the gain and loss of a mother all in one day, I can't let her back in just to completely shatter my life again." I tell her and she looks at me with wide eyes making me feel guilty because she's an innocent party in all of this. "She already knows where I live doesn't she?"

"She does. She's staying at a hotel just a few miles away and will be there for the next few days, possibly a week, if you want to talk to her." She says and I drop my head at that with a sigh. "I'm not saying that you forgive her y/n, I wouldn't blame you if you didn't because I can't imagine being in and out of foster homes until you find parents that have to fight to keep you. I can't imagine how that feels and I'm sorry that you had to go through any of that where we didn't. All I'm asking is that you give her a chance to talk, hear her out and then do as you please." She tells me and I smile at her as I look over at the window when I see movement outside.

"That's either your mum or one of your siblings and I'm willing to bet that it's your mum." I say and she nods with a groan making me chuckle slightly. "I'll let her talk Holly but... I don't want any of you getting your hopes up that I'll accept her into my life. Quite frankly I'm only doing this for you guys, if for no other reason to make things better for you, Tilly and Chester." I tell her and she nods in understanding as she hugs me quickly before running outside to where Davina is lingering and I can hear them talking quietly as Max comes running downstairs and sits on my lap in the armchair once I'm sat with my legs tucked under me. "Who needs people when you have a dog huh Maxxy?" I ask the German Shepherd and he looks up at me with a pant as his tail smacks against the arm happily making me laugh as I lean down to kiss the top of his head.
