Chapter 3 , a nasty surprise

A/N: So sorry about the extremely late update guys :s to make up for it i'll upload the next two chapters today :D had a lot of stuff on with moving, band promotion and everything else but you don't need my excuses . . on with the story! :)

Sven decided it would be nice for Eve to leave the flat for a nice change of scenery as the weather was nice so he made Train and Eve go up town to pick up some shopping that wasn't necessarily needed, but they didn't know that.

"Noodles?"
"check"

"Beef?"
"check"

"soy sauce?"
"check"

"milk?"
"chec . . wait Train that wasn't on the list!" Eve replied firmly but with a slight smile creasing her lips

"Well Sven doesn't have to know I bought some" he says flicking the lid off with his thumb and chugging down 2 thirds of the bottle
"here" he says passing the rest of the bottle to Eve.
"Since when do you share your milk?" Eve asked taking the bottle
"Since my best friend started to have nightmare" he says
Eve finishes the milk and puts the empty bottle in a nearby bin
"Town is packed today" she says wanting to change the subject as soon as possible
"yeah it is" Train says scratching his head looking at everyone in the town centre.

Eve was right, the town was over run with loads of people doing there weekly shopping.
The people on the stools had their hands full and people were even nudging to get to where they wanted to go.
"well the shopping's done we might as well head back for dinner, im starved" Train says
Eve smiles and they slowly edge their way through the crowd.

Eve didn't know if it was the heat or the lack of sleep but every now and then she was certain she could see a hooded man edging his way towards them in the crowd keeping his face covered. Eve got scared but she didn't tell Train in case it was all in her head and it worried him for nothing so instead she clung onto Trains arm and didn't let go.
As they reached the edge of the town Eve looked back to notice the man she thought was following them had gone and she exhaled in relief.
As she turned back a man pushed past her knocking her back
"Oi" Train yelled at the man but the man was long gone, swallowed up by the crowds of people behind them by the time Eve could even get a look at who it was.

"Eve" Train called looking at her face
"Eve" He shouted again shaking her elbows
Eve stood there staring at the floor not even blinking and when Train looked at the floor to see what had made Eve react this way he saw it clear as day, a single red rose right in front of Eve's feet.
Train picked it up and handed it to her.
"Looks like someone dropped this" Train said
Eve just looked at the rose not wanting to touch it
"It's just a rose" Train says bringing it back away from her.
Eve had never mention the rose in the dream before because she thought it wasn't necessary so Train thought nothing of it but Eve was frightened and just wanted to got home. Eve made Train drop the rose and take her home.
Eve was quiet when she got back just sitting on the sofa while Sven attempted to cook spicy noodles and beef.

What does this mean? Could it really be him? But it can't possibly be . . could it? "Eve"
What's going to happen to me? "Eve"Or Sven or Train, I can't let anybody hurt them, even if it means my own life in their place I can' let him harm them two!

"Earth to Eve"
Eve jumped noticing Sven in her face
"Yes? Sorry" Eve replied
Sven laughed and pointed to the table where 3 dishes of hot steamy noodles sat.

That night in bed Eve couldn't sleep, as tired as she was her mind would not shut off.
He's back and he's back for me, what's going to happen to me? Is he going to kill me? Or worse kidnap me and make me spend eternity with him.
I thought this mess was over I don't want to go back there trapped forever what do I do?
I should tell Sven about the rose, or Rinslett they will know what to do.
They will take me far away from here, away from him where he can never find me, but he's already found me, he is already in this town, he's probably watching me right now.

Terror struck Eve and suddenly she didn't want to be alone.
She get out of bed and liberally ran to where she'd feel safest.
'knock knock knock' . . . .
'knock knock knock'
"yeah" a groggy voice came through the door, Eve opened it slowly to find Train in bed.
Train sat up when he realized it was Eve.
"Himi-chan! Did you have another nightmare? I didn't hear you screaming" he says rubbing his eyes.
Eve comes in and closes the door leaving the room in pure darkness.
"Train I . . . "
"Princess?" he says in a concerned voice
"i just don't want to be alone" she says
"come here" Train says moving the blanket for her to climb in bed.
Eve got in and lay there all stiff and scared when Train put his arms around her.
"your safe here princess, you know that right" Train says running his fingers across her head in a stroking manner.
"I know" she says hugging up to Trains warm touch and before she knew it she was drifting off.
"I should be doing that to you" Eve says before falling to sleep
Train laughs and continues to stroke her softly until he fell to sleep too.
