Nordics X Depressed!Child!Reader CH.7

    Your eyes slowly opened the next morning. All you could think about was how sick you felt. You tried to sit up but had to lie back down, too sore to do it. Quietly you curled back up, ignoring the sticky feeling all over you. Yao was still asleep next to you, not seeming to have a care in the world. You sniffled, your eyes watering up. You had been so close to freedom but Yao had to ruin it… why…
    ~To the Nordics~
    Lucas slammed his hands on the table, “We need to find a way to get (y/n) out of there as soon as possible! When I got there to adopt her, she was already trying to jump out the windows a-and then that freaking pedophile wouldn’t let me help her! We have to get there before she tries to jump again!”
    Tino looked at them, “Well… can’t we just call the police and tell them what you saw…?”
    Berwald looked at him, “But he could just say that it was Lucas who did it and not him.”
    Matthias frowned, “Well what are we supposed to do then!?” Mr. Puffin chirped, fluttering over to Lucas’s phone and picking it up, bringing it to Emil.
    Emil held up the phone, “Lucas… did you forget that you took a picture. If that man tried to say it was you, you could just show him the picture. It’s as simple as that. No flaw. No way of us getting in trouble.”
    Lucas nodded, “Right.” He looked at Tino, “Call the cops. When you’re done, meet up with us.” Then to Matthias, “You and Berwald go to the orphanage to meet the cops. Emil and I will try to find (y/n)”
   They all nodded and went to their assigned places. Tino ran to the phone, calling the police, “Hello? I-I want to report child abuse… I-It’s at the orphanage...” Tino relaxed when they accepted and hung up, starting to run to the orphanage.
   ~Denmark and Sweden~
  Berwald looked around for the police, “Where are they? This is taking way too long.” He paced, looking down the street, not wanting to wait anymore.
   Matthias was sitting on the ground next to him, “Ber. The station is pretty far from here… it takes a few minutes to get here…” The Swedish man sighed and nodded but looked up, hearing the sirens in the distance.
   The cop cars eventually pulled up, and the cops got out, “Okay. So what exactly happened here?” Matthias took a second, explaining the situation to them. The cops frowned, “That girl again? How do we know you’re not just faking it?”
   Matthias glared, “Our friend saw it! We swear! We are telling the truth!”
   One of the cops looked at him, “And what if your friend is lying?”
   Berwald glared at them, making all of them flinch back, “He has a picture. And give me one reason someone, anyone would lie about a situation like this. I think you are just trying to find a way to get out of doing this case. It’s as if it were any girl but her, you would do it without hesitation. Do you want me to tell your boss that you are denying help to a poor little girl?”
   The cops quickly shook their heads and went to the door, knocking on it.
   ~Norway and Iceland~
   Lucas peered through the window, finally finding you. He motioned his hand to Emil, telling him that he had found you. Emil peeked through, frowning at the sight of your crying form. Lucas blinked, seeing Yao start to move, waking up to answer the door. Quickly, he pulled Emil down so Yao wouldn’t see them when he got up.
    Yao frowned, seeing you crying, “Shut up, stupid girl. You brought it on yourself. I don’t want to see another tear coming from you.” You whimpered and curled up tighter, not wanting more. The Asian grunted and put on pants before walking to the door. Lucas slowly stood back up once Yao was gone. He quietly tapped the glass, trying to get you to look over.
    You slowly sat up, wiping your eyes. They were back! They came back for you! Your eyes lit up, happy to see them. You tried your best to get to the window but collapsed, not able to take the pain in your legs.
     Lucas gasped and stared to open the window, jumping in and running to you. Emil followed close behind, “(y/n)? Are you okay…?”
     You nodded slightly, “Y-Yeah… I’m fine…”
     Emil shook his head, “We know you’re not… don’t be afraid to tell us sometimes…” You started crying, clinging to him, shaking in fear.
     ~To the front door~
     Yao sighed, opening the door but flinched back as he saw the police, “W-What are you doing here?”
     The cops looked at him, “We are here because it was reported that child abuse was going on here.”
     Yao stepped back, “But I run an orphanage. I make sure that everything and everyone is perfectly fine and happy…”
      The cops nodded, “Then you won’t mind if we have a look around the place?” Yao shook his head and moved by to let them in. Once they had started to look, he made a dash to his bedroom, about to hide you but flinched, seeing Emil and Lucas protecting you from him.
      Yao frowned, about to call the cops over but was cut off by Emil, “We have enough evidence against you. Don’t even try that.” Yao stepped back, shaking nervously, knowing he was caught. He tried to turn around and run but was met face to face with Berwald.
      Berwald glared, “Don’t try and run. We will catch you no matter what. Nobody hurts (y/n).” Yao looked at the window but saw that Tino and Matthias were standing there. Berwald nodded his head to Finland, “Go tell the police we have him cornered. Tino nodded and ran off.
      After a few minutes, the police arrived in the room and grabbed Yao, handcuffing him. They tossed him into the cop car then looked at Lucas, “We are giving you custody of her, seeing as you are the one who helped her. Good day to you.” They drove off.
      You smiled and hugged them happily. They hugged you back, letting go after a few minutes. Lucas looked at them, “You guys head home. We will leave a little later. I just want to talk to her.” They nodded and left Lucas and you alone. Lucas sighed and looked at you, “(y/n)... why did you try to jump from the window…?”
