I'm not sure if my rewrite is going to be as popular as my xreader, but I'm going to keep writing it the way I want it. So if you don't like it, then don't read it as normal. I want to finish my fanfictions, that goes for Eva Birthday and The Red Ribbon Straggler which will be my third part in my Birthday Trilogy.

Also to my old readers who have read and reviewed my rewrite, thanks! I'm glad you're going to follow me again, that means a lot to me! Thank you for the Reviews, Favorites, Alerts and to the unknown people who read my story too.

I'm back working on this fanfiction now, but it's going to be slow updates from now on and I'm not sure if people are into this fanfiction anymore. I may just stop writing it until I've got the time to continue it and I'm going to be busy until August. So I'm not sure if this chapter makes sense, it changed since my first Beyond This Love.

Also I've started writing A's side of the story, it's called The Alternative Story.


Chapter 28!

I placed Eva down in her cot, I covered her up with her blankets and kissed her goodnight. She had fallen asleep while she was watching cartoons about cats with me and A in the living room, I think today as taken it's toll on everyone. It's been a very long and exhausting day, it didn't help much with the lying part we had to do when we visited Rose in the afternoon. I felt bad that I had to basically lie about my life in Los Angeles, but I understand why I had to do it in the end. I couldn't really tell her the whole truth about everything that had happened to me while I was living in Los Angeles. I heard A call my name from the landing, I told him I wouldn't be long as I switched Eva's night light on.

I checked on Eva again before I left my old bedroom, I switched the room's light off and half closed the room's door behind me. I walked along the landing towards the bedroom that use to belong to Rose, I stopped near the bedroom's door and ran my fingers through my hair. I took some strawberry flavoured chap-stick from my housecoat pocket, I quickly applied some of it to my lips and took my housecoat off. I looked down at my short strappy pink cotton nightie and took a few deep breathes, I hated trying to be attractive in my nightwear. But I always made some kind of effort for A when we had some alone time together, he once told me he wouldn't mind if I wore a potato-snack to bed because he would still fancy me all the same which I guess is a good thing.

I smiled to myself and slightly shook my head at the thought, I may try that one time for a joke. I opened the bedroom's door, I walked into the room and partly closed the door behind me. I looked over at A siting crossed legged on the bed, he was drinking a mug of tea and going through that case file folder Roger had given him this morning. I rolled my eyes as I hung my housecoat on the back of the door, he was wearing some grey jogging bottom and black t shirt. I switched the bedroom's light off before I walked over to the bed, I climbed onto it and sat down next to him. I curled my legs underneath myself and rested my head on his shoulder as he turned a page in his folder.

" Did Eva go down alright?" He asked.

" Yes, she's fast asleep in my old bedroom..." I replied and sat up straight. " I think today as worn her out, it's been a long day for us all. Can I ask why you never told me that Rose knew about you faking your death? I mean it was meant to be confidential information, no one outside of the orphanage was meant to know about it besides Watari and L. It seems like I'm learning many new things today about you and the orphanage's system, you're like a mysterious wolf..."

" All the better to see you with my dear!" He chuckled as he closed his case file folder. " But as you very well know I never thought you would find out, it's quite complicated when you think about it. After you disappeared with Backup rumours began to spread around the orphanage like wild fire, it wasn't long before Rose heard some of these rumours and Watari had no choice but to tell her I was still alive. That's when she went firecracker mode on Watari's and Roger's butts, I had no choice but to follow you both to Los Angeles because I told her I would find you..."

" Did you ever tell her you were going to Los Angeles?" I asked.

" Nope, I told her after 3 months that I had found video footage of you at Hethrow Airport with an unknown student from the orphanage. I told her I hacked into the Airport's passager check-in system and found your flight details on a Los Angeles boarding checklist, but I left out the part that you were using a fake passports..." He replied. " I made a lot of stuff up just to ease her mind, I couldn't really tell her that you had ran away with a violent lunatic with sociopathic tendencies who later on became a serial killer. It would have half scared her to death, I don't like upsetting people and I would have felt so much guilt if I told her the truth because I actually like Rose. She's a nice old lady, also I like toffee cheesecake recipe..."

" You're sweet, I like how you put Rose's feelings first so she wouldn't worry that much about me..." I smiled.

" What can I say, I've got a heart when it comes to people's emotions..." He sighed. " I plan not to be like L with my detective skills, I've watched him while I was growing up around him and I saw the way he interacted with people. Yeah he's a good detective and everything, but the way he spoke to victims of crimes always made me angry..."

" That just makes you a good man, the people you help are very lucky to have you on their side..." I smiled as I got onto my knees and wrapped my arms around his shoulders. " I'm lucky to have you in my life too, I'm glad you came back into my life and saved me from the monsters. When I say monsters I mean the guy from the alleyway, I could have lost a lot that night..."

" And what about Backup?" He asked. " Did I save you from him to?"

" I don't know, it's kind of a hard question to answer..." I replied.

" I think sometimes some questions are meant to stay unanswered, so don't worry about it..." He said with a smile. " All that matters in the end is that I found you again, I brought you home safely and gained a family. Sure I've got a pain in the butt Sister and a half panda cub Nephew, but I've also you..."

" And what about Eva?" I asked.

" I adore Eva, she's like a cute little dolly mix with added sprinkles and a hint of mischief on the side..." He chuckled. " She's going to be trouble when she grows up, just like her Mother..."

" Hey, I'm not trouble!" I smiled.

" Yeah you are sugar, you're nothing but a toothache..." He chuckled.

" Aiden, you're meant to be nice to me because we've got a date planned tonight..." I said with a slight laugh and removed my arms from around him. " I made an effort for you too, why can't you say some nice things about me instead of calling me a toothache?"

" You should take toothache as a compliment, it basically means you're sweet..." He replied.

" But toothache is basically a bad tooth, are you trying to say am I rotting your teeth with my sweetness?" I asked.

" Give me a moment, I need to rethink my answers..." He replied.

" Okay, take your time..." I smiled.

I watched him drink the rest of his tea, he placed his mug down on the bedside cabinet and placed his case file folder in the cabinet's draw. He lay back on the bed and put his hands behind his head as he sucked at his bottom lip. I watched him for a while as he thought, I always imagined cogs turning around in his head when he was thinking about stuff. I smiled at him as I crawled over to him, I lay down on my stomach next to him and sighed. I leaned on my hand left as I continued to watch him, he made eye contact with me after a while and told me to stop watching him because I was distracting him. I told him that I liked watching him as rested my hand on his chest, he just laughed at me and told me to stop being a pervert.

" Alright, I think I can do nice compliments now..." He said as he blew his fringe away from his eyes. " I love you more than anything in this world, I don't think I will ever stop loving you until I'm six feet under and you make the best toffee cheesecake in all of the world. I'm not saying I just love you because you can cook and clean, I love you because you're just you. You're fun to be around even though Nonie says you're boring, your smile lights up every room in my apartment and you're short which I find very cute..."

" You are really bad at giving nice compliments, you really need to start saying romantic things to be before I fall asleep on you..." I smiled.

" Alright, I like the way your lips taste when I kiss you..." He said.

" You are putting no thought into your answers, I'm going to start yawning on you very soon..." I laughed.

" Elizabeth, all I can say to you is that I love you more than anything else in this world..." He smiled as he rolled over onto his side and leaned on his hand. " You have my heart for all eternity, I don't really have words to tell you how much I care for you. You're just the best thing that fate as ever put in my path, you're my girl and I count each day that I spend with you as a blessing..."

" And do you love me more than your precious toffee?" I asked as I gently blew some of his fringe away from his eyes with a giggle." If you did I would know you were serious then about loving me more than anything in all of the world, but I would feel guilty about making you choose between me and your precious toffee..."

" Of course I do, it would be a hard decision to make though..." He chuckled.

" Good because I love you too even though you're a bed hogger and you leave the toilet's seat up all the time in the bathroom, I need to train you just a little bit in some household departments..." I smiled. " But other than that I find you very satisfying, I just hope it lasts forever this time..."

" We're forever this time sweetheart, I promise..." He smiled. " You're getting pretty bossy and demanding since we got together, I think I like it..."

" Well someone as to look out for you, I guess that person will have to be me..." I smiled.

" Good, I don't think I would want it any other way..." He smirked.

I gave him a smile as I walked my finger tips along this his chest, I told him that I loved him and kissed his cheek. He cupped my face with his free hand, he softy kissed my lips and rolled me over on to my back. He kissed my lips again, I laughed slightly though because his fringe kept tickling my nose. I placed my hands on his chest as I told him to switch the light off, he blew his fringe away from his eyes and told me he would do it later after he had finished kissing me to death. I told him okay with smile as I ran my finger tips down his arm, he kissed me again and whispered that he loved me before he switched the bedside cabinet's lamp off.


I groaned as I rolled over onto my back, I stretched my arms above my head and smiled to myself when I smelt bacon wafting through the cottage. A must be cooking breakfast I thought to myself as I sat up in my bed, I sleepy looked over at the alarm clock which was on A's side of the bed. But my eyes grew wide when I saw A sleeping soundly next to me, I quickly looked over at the bedroom's door and saw that it was now fully open. I bit at my bottom lip as I scrambled out of the bed, I hurried around the bed to A's side and roughly shook him. He groaned as he told me to go away, I shook him again and told him that someone was in my cottage.

" Elizabeth, what are you going on about?" He asked.

" Didn't you hear me the first time? I think someone is in my cottage, I need you to go and check downstairs while I check on Eva..." I replied as I quickly walked over to the bedroom's door and grabbed my housecoat from the hook on the door. " Can't you smell bacon cooking? No one besides us know how to cook in this cottage unless Eva is a secret chef, but I highly doubt that because she's only 1 years old. Also the bedroom's door is wide open, I left it partly closed last night in case Eva woken up while we were in this room..."

" Oh yeah, I remember you partly closing the door last night..." He yawned.

I told him to get out of bed as I put my housecoat on, I watched him drag himself out of the bed and take a baseball bat from underneath the bed. I quickly left the bedroom and hurried along the landing to the bedroom Eva was sleeping in, the door to the room she was sleeping in was also wide open. I stopped in the doorway of my old bedroom, Eva wasn't in her cot anymore. I walked into my room, I quickly had a look around it and found Eva's doll lying on the floor near her cot. I looked over shoulder when I heard A yawn, I showed him Eva's doll and told him she wasn't here. I panicked slightly as I rushed over to him, he told me to remain calm as he took hold of my hand.

We both left my old bedroom and quickly walked down the stairs, A told me to stay behind him as he got to the bottom of the staircase. I told him no as I barged past him, I hurried to the kitchen's door and quickly opened it. I saw Eva sitting in her high chair, she gave me a smile and stuffed some sliced banana dripped in milk chocolate into her mouth. I jumped when I heard the pantry's door close, I quickly turned my attention to the door and saw Nonie holding a box of cereal. She gave a slight smirk as she walked over to the kitchen table, she empty some of the cereal into a bowl and cleared her throat as she then placed the cereal box down on the table.

" Good morning love birds, I hope don't mind that I let myself in..." Said None as she sat down at the table. " I did knock three times before I let myself in with the spare set of keys Watari gave me to your cottage, it's cold outside and I didn't want Blaze to catch a cold. But you guys on the other hand looked very cosy in bed this morning, are you going to tell me how long you guys have been seeing each other or have I got to ask Eva for all of the gossip around here?"

" Eva, don't say a word..." I heard A say from behind me with a chuckle. " You can't be proven guilty if you remain silent, also there is an ice cream cake in it for you if you keep quiet on this matter..."

" No!" Laughed Eva.

" We may as well come clean then if Eva won't keep our secret, we've been seeing each other for a few month now..." Said A as he wrapped his arms around me. " Do you have a problem with us being together? If so you know where the door is little Sister, this time we're for keeps..."

" Of course not, I think it's quite sweet in a creepy way..." She said with a smirk. " Just don't go sharing any disgusting details with me about your love life, you're my Brother after all and we have limits to our relationship as siblings. But it's great news, I guess you could say we're a family now. So when are you going to put a ring on her finger? Do I need to buy a wedding hat yet or something? I've always wanted to be the Sister in law from hell, I can't wait! "

" Whoa, to far ahead!" Sighed A.

" He's right, also we're far to young to be thinking about stuff like that right now..." I said with a giggle. " Where is Blaze? I thought you said he was here with you, where is he exactly? "

" Blaze is asleep in the living room, it's just after 7:35am after all..." She replied.

" I'm going back to bed then for another hour, I'll catch you girls later..." Yawned A.

" Don't you want any bacon sandwiches for breakfast?" She asked.

" Not right now, it's to early for breakfast..." He replied.

" Fine, that means there's more for the rest of us!" She said.

A kissed my cheek, he gave Eva a quick wave and told Nonie to save him some bacon sandwiches for later. He left the kitchen and hurried back up the staircase. I gave Nonie a smile as I walked over to the kitchen table, I sat down across from Eva and wrapped my housecoat tightly around myself as I cleared my throat. Nonie made me some tea, she asked if I would like some breakfast and I told her not just yet. I watched Eva eating some of breakfast, she was covered in chocolate and her hair was sticking up on one side of her head because she had squashed banana in her hair. I gave her small smile as I picked my mug of tea up from the table, I took a sip of my tea and turned my attention to Nonie. I watched her spoon some of her dry cereal into her mouth, she looked up at me from her bowl and glared at me. I quickly looked away from her and took another sip of my tea, I guess I should say something before it gets awkward between us.

" Thank you for giving Eva her breakfast, she seems to be enjoying it..." I said.

" You're welcome, I hope you don't mind her having some chocolate with her bananas for a change..." She said while she leant back on the chair and gave me a smirk as she curled a strand of her hair around her finger. " So you and Aiden, I can't actually say I didn't see that one coming. He's been in love with you for a very long time, I knew something would eventually happen between you. He's so predictable when it comes to you, he worships the ground you walk on which will end up breaking his heart..."

" I am not going to hurt him if that's what you are trying to say, I really do care for your Brother..." I sighed. " We were not ready to tell anyone about us, we're being careful this time because of what happened at the orphanage. We don't want L or Watari to find out about us just yet, so you will have to keep it a secret for us for a little bit longer..."

" I see, but what about Backup?" She asked. " I mean you're going to have to tell him at some point, you had a child with him after all. He may get jealous or something, he may disapprove about my Brother bringing up his Daughter..."

" I will tell Beyond when I'm ready, but I don't see why he would disapprove of Aiden bringing up his child..." I replied with sigh. " Aiden loves Eva, he would do anything for her and she thinks the world of him. I don't see why Beyond would disapprove about Eva growing up with a loving family around her, he would be pleased that she's safe and happy with people who would do anything for her..."

" You really don't know Backup like I know him, but I guess if Eva is happy there is no problem with your relationship situation..." She said and picked a bottle of milk up from the table. " Let's change the subject for now, I'm here to invite you on a trip to London Zoo with me and Blaze. I thought I wouldn't wait until the end of the week to come and see you, so do you want to come with us or not?"

" I guess, but it's just a little bit early for the Zoo right now..." I replied. " I need to take a bath, Aiden will most probably be asleep for the next few hours yet and Eva will need a bath too before we leave my cottage. I also need to tidy the kitchen and make the bed in my spare bedroom, it will probably be about 12pm by the time we are all ready for the Zoo..."

" It's okay, you can take your time..." She said.

I spoke with Nonie for another 20 minute, we talked about the orphanage and how our children's development was going on. It wasn't long until I decided to take a bath, Nonie told me to go and take a bath while she watched Eva for me. She also said she would make us some packed lunches for our trip to the Zoo, but I didn't really trust her sandwich making skills. The last time she made sandwiches they contained tuna and worcester sauce, they were vile. I told her I would make us some lunches after my bath, she said fine and told me that she would start tidying up the kitchen for me. I hurried back upstairs to my old bedroom, I took my wash bag from my dressing table's draw and made my way to the bathroom.
