ALL RIGHTS GO TO RACHEL CAINE!
Chapter twenty-one
Michael's POV
"Amelie, we can't keep her locked up! She's 15; she's going to want to be out and about!" I exclaim at her idea of locking Katie up in the house until those psycho's are found. While we've been debating I've noticed that Sam had been very quiet and Oliver and Myrnin are having their own discussion. "Sam! What do you think? Should we lock up your daughter? Or let her be and just keep an eye on her and make sure that she's never alone?" I ask Sam. He looks awkward and doesn't know what to say.
I guess he sees it as he either falls out with the ice queen or his grandson. Hard decision. "Umm…well" He starts but gets interrupted when we hear people coming down the stairs. I then hear 4 heart beats enter the room. I spin round and see Katie, Jason and the twins. Katie looks pale and shaken, whereas Jason looks pissed and seriously furious. "What's happened?" I ask as I walk over to them. Jason passes me a phone and when I read the text, I look at Katie. I can tell she's scared, she's bound to be after being taken 3 times by the same person, well vamp. I don't know whether to be pissed like Jason or worried, I settle for both.
I throw the phone over to Sam who catches it easily in one hand. I see his fist clench up as he stares down at the phone. Amelie looks over his shoulder and reads the text as well, I cannot tell what she is thinking or feeling she seems so cut off from her emotions that I can't tell; but by the looks of it Sam can. "Right, that's that decision sorted. She's staying in here until we catch them" Amelie confirms but Jason goes against it instantly. "That won't do any good. She's been taken from the house before, what's stopping them from doing it again?" he states.
While there all arguing I notice that Katie has disappeared. I go into the kitchen and see her trying to make some bottles for the twins, but she looks like she's struggling, seeing as she has Freddie still. I walk over and take Freddie off her so she can make them. "Thanks, it was really difficult trying to do this when you're holding a baby." She states while carrying on with making the bottles. While she's warming them up, I've been making funny faces at Freddie who smiles in return. I hear Katie giggle as she places the bottles on the table. "I'm just going to go get Rosabell, can you feed Freddie for me please?" she asks and I nod as she leaves the room.
Katie's POV
I wonder over to Jason and take Rosabell from him and take her into the kitchen. When I enter I can see Michael doing as I asked and Freddie's drinking happily and he looks as if he's going to doze off by the end. I sit down across from Michael and start feeding Rosabell her bottle. "Hey Michael. Can we bring their Moses baskets back downstairs so we can keep watch on them?" I ask hopefully. "Of course we can. If it make you feel better; plus it would be more safe, I guess" he says and I smile happily as I finish feeding her. When we're done, the twins have fallen asleep, we walk into the living room and send Myrnin and Oliver to go and fetch the Moses baskets for us.
"Here you go, my dear" Myrnin said as him and Oliver placed down the Moses baskets. We placed the twins in there carefully before leaving them to sleep. "Hey will you guys stop nattering. The twins are sleeping" I hiss at the bickering nit wits. They instantly stop and apologize. "Can you all stop arguing about me? I can look after myself and I'll be extra careful, ok? And if I get anymore weird texts or anything like that, I'll tell ya ok?" I ask and they all agree. After that all the vamps left, bar Michael of course. I went over to Jason and wrapped my arms around his neck and hugged him. He wrapped his around my waist and hugged me back. I felt him kiss the side of my head, which made me smile before pulling away to look at him. "Jase, will you come with me to the apartment so I can get the twins some toys?" I ask and he agrees. "You two be careful then. Me and Eve will watch the twins and while you're gone we'll give them a bath ok?" Michael says and we nod before leaving the house and heading back to the apartment.
Jase unlocks the door and we head in. I walk over to the twin's room and search through their toy boxes. "Why do we have all these toys, when the twins aren't old enough to actually physically play with them, just hold them?" Jase asks and I laugh slightly. I pull out a few rattles and Rosabell's favourite teddy and throw them to Jase before heading into their baby draw. I pull out a few dummies and put them in a spare baby bag, along with the toys I had just pulled out. "Right, I've got what we're going to need." I state. "Good" Jase says as he comes over and pulls me into his arms and kisses me deeply.
"You've been gone for so long. I don't know how I coped without you, I really don't. I love you, you know that right?" Jason asks and I nod. "Not as much as I love you" I state before kissing him again. "Want a bet?" he mumbles jokingly against my lips. I nod and pull him into the bedroom, where I can express just how much I love him and have missed him.
