Thank you.
Chapter 02 - I don't know, you're up to something, aren't you?
Andrew's POV
I couldn't believe Bridget's been a street away from me this whole time, it's just insane. Still I couldn't hide how happy I was to know she was safe and alright. I stopped denying my feelings for her a long time ago, the funny thing was that it was actually Juliet who convinced me to give Bridget a second chance. I was about to get desperate because I couldn't find her anywhere, it crossed my mind that Siobhan had found her and done something bad. Henry told me the reason why Siobhan wanted Bridget dead, and I honestly couldn't understand how she could still blame Bridget for her son's death after so many years, when it was an accident, it was no one's fault. I really couldn't picture Siobhan as a devoted mother, not after seeing her give away her twins like she did. I think that if it took me a little bit longer to find her she would have given Portia and Regan away to anyone. I love those girls and I know it seems crazy, but sometimes I like to think they are Bridget's and not Siobhan's.
Bridget and I ordered Italian food for dinner, and all the time I was thinking of how I would tell Bridget to come back home with me. Well, it wasn't safe for her to be unprotected in this awful neighborhood.
"Why are you staring at me like that?" she asked and I shook my head.
"Like what?" I asked back and she smiled her beautiful smile.
"I don't know, you're up to something, aren't you? I mean, this is too good to be true." She confessed and I chuckled.
"Bridget, I just told you your psyco sister is out and after you and you tell me it's too good to be true? You are indeed one of a kind." We both laughed and I finally took courage to ask her to come back home with me. "Is this apartment rented?" I asked trying to introduce the matter slowly.
"Yes, I pay it monthly, why?" she asked knowing I wanted something more with that question, Bridget was really good in reading people, except her own sister.
"I thought that since Siobhan is after you again, you would be more protected back home with me. You know, Solomon could work as your bodyguard again." I said and her eyes widened.
"What? I can't afford a bodyguard now, not even if I get rid of this rental." She said and I smiled.
"Don't worry about money, I pay him monthly already." Still she shook her head.
"I can't accept that Andrew, I don't want your money. I don't NEED your money." I walked closer to her.
"I know that, that's why I'm offering you this. Please Bridge, I just got you back, I don't want to lose you again. And Juliet really misses you." I laughed a bit by using Juliet to convince her, but somehow her face showed me that it worked.
"Where will it lead us if I stay at your house?" she asked concerned.
"We can start with very good friends, and then we'll see where life will lead us, is that good enough?" she nodded and smiled.
Late at night we arrived at my apartment and Juliet came running.
"Daddy, how was it with Bridget?" Juliet asked and smiled even bigger when she realized Bridget was with me holding a suitcase. "I'm guessing it went really good." She winked and I was embarrassed though nothing happened.
"Juliet!" I said and Bridget laughed.
"Juliet, I missed you." Bridget said hugging Juliet, I loved to see my girls together again, Juliet indeed needed a mom and Bridge was the right person.
"So, you're here to stay?" Juliet asked and Bridget nodded.
"I'll stay here till we can find Siobhan." She said and Juliet smirked.
"And since we don't have a guest room anymore you'll stay in daddy's room, right?" Juliet asked and Bridget turned bright red while glaring at me.
"Well, it's the twins' room now, if you don't mind you can still stay there seeing it has a bed." I explained and she agreed, though I wish it wasn't too soon for her to stay in my room.
I showed Bridget her room and I could see her smiling at the twins who were sleeping.
"They're beautiful." She said and I smiled.
"Yeah, they are. Their names are Regan and Portia. Siobhan chose them so I decided to keep them." I said explaining why they were named like that, or she would thought I was a Shakespeare fanatic, since I already had a Juliet.
"Cool." She said and at that moment Portia woke up.
"Dada?" she asked and I went to her bed.
"Yes honey, it's me." She smiled and looked at Bridget, her eyes widened.
"Mama?" Portia asked and Bridget looked at me not knowing what to do. I knew Juliet had showed her pictures of Siobhan and it was only natural for them to confused them with Bridget. Then she smiled and sat beside Portia.
"No honey, I'm your aunt Bridget." She looked confused at Bridget.
"No, you mama!" she was as stubborn as Siobhan.
"Portia, I'm your mom's twin sister. Don't you and Regan look exactly the same?" Bridget asked and Portia only nodded. "Well, me and your mom Siobhan are like that as well." Her eyes widened.
"Wheres mama?" she asked and Bridget looked down.
"She's very sick, that's why she isn't here with you. But now it's late, go back to sleep and tomorrow we continue this, okay?" Bridget said and Portia yawned. It was amazing how good she was with children, in that moment I wanted nothing more than Bridget to be their mom.
To be continued.
