Hello,

Chapter 01 - I'm sorry but you are in great danger
Bridget's POV
I woke up late and got ready in a hurry for work, I now work in a small coffee shop near the Martin & Charles building. No, Andrew and I didn't work things out after he told me to leave, actually it's been almost two years and I haven't heard from him, or Juliet or even Siobhan, who I found out was alive when I last saw everyone. I truly hope she didn't make Andrew's life a living hell again. Yes, I was still in love with him, and it was so hard to know that I'll never have him again, well, I never really had him as mine, he's always been Siobhan's. I really needed to leave, I was so late already.
"Can I help you?" I asked without even looking at the costumer in front of me until I heard that voice, his voice.
"Bridget?" he asked and I stared at him in shock. It's been two years and he never came here.
"A-A-Andrew." I said and he smiled at me, then I noticed he had two small kids sitting beside him, and Juliet as well.
"Bridget, you had no right to disappear from our lives!" Juliet said and I blushed looking down. Before I could say anything Andrew saved me.
"When is your shift over?" he asked and I was so scared of the talk that I knew we had it coming.
"At 6pm." He nodded and ordered, I kept looking at the two girls sitting beside them, they looked so much like me, oh my, of course, they're Siobhan's.
The rest of the day was a blur in my mind, I couldn't wait to see Andrew again, still I was afraid of what he had to tell me. Juliet still seemed so mad. It was 6 and I was just leaving the building when I saw Andrew coming to me, he was alone this time.
"Bridget, hello." He said and I suddenly I was shy.
"Hello." I answered and he smirked at me, oh damn, that man was so handsome.
"Maybe we can go to your house to talk, I think we need some privacy, don't we?" he asked and I nodded. We got inside his car and I smiled when I noticed that the driver was Solomon. He smiled at me.
"Hey Bridge, finally among us again." He said and I giggled.
"It's so good to see you Solomon!" I replied and then gave him my address. That was the most awkward car drive in my whole life, Andrew was just looking through the window with a serious face, that was scaring me.
"Here we are." Solomon said and I nodded. Andrew's eyes widened.
"You're living here?" he asked shocked and I giggled.
"Oh believe me, I've been in far worse places, now come in." I said and he followed me inside.
We both sat in my old couch and he faced me.
"I missed you." He said shocking me for life. My jaw dropped a little and he noticed. "Don't be so shocked I told you I loved you when I also told you to disappear. I really didn't think you would disappear like you did. I've been looking for you for more an year now, you are indeed good at disappearing. Well, unfortunately I can't say the same about your sister." Andrew said and held my hand lightly. I really couldn't believe that was happening, I've dreamed about this moment every night since I left.
"What did Siobhan do?" I asked and when he looked down I smiled. "Just for the record: I missed you too, a lot." He looked into my eyes and smiled, then he took a deep breath.
"Henry came to me and told me everything that happened, including that the twins weren't his, meaning they were probably mine. I did a test and in fact they are. I tracked her down and got the girls, she was obsessed with killing you saying you ruined her life, so we put her in an institution, but she ran away about two months ago and we can't find her anywhere. I was so worried about you, she's sick Bridge. I'm sorry but you are in great danger." He finished saying and I could only think about how he called me Bridge and it felt so natural. He pulled me closer to him and I only realized I was crying when I saw a wet spot on his shirt. "Shhh, it's okay Bridge, I won't let anything happen to you." He said on my ear and I stared at him.
"I love you." I blurted out and he smiled.
"I love you too, but let's take things slowly this time? We need to get to know each other first." He said and I nodded, yep, that was definitely a dream come true. He loved me back.
"Are you still married with Siobhan?" I asked and he smirked.
"No need to be jealous, love." He joked. "I'm a divorced man and I've been one for a while."
"Good." I said and leaned in a bit, Andrew ran his nose to mine and laughed.
"We're taking things slowly Bridge."
"You suck Mr. Martin." I said mocking him and he laughed again.
"You're beautiful Ms. Kelly."
To be continued.
