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 and I've started to write an Attack on Titan fanfic.
Chapter 34!
A week had past since me and Eva visited Beyond, I don't think I want to visit him again without A escorting us. It was so unsettling the way he had explained to Eva about how he got his scars, he could have at least told her some sugarcoated lie or made something else up that didn't involve disturbing thoughts. But Eva didn't seem fazed by his explanation, she just laughed and continued playing with the toys. I'm happy she doesn't really understand what he was telling her, but someday she will understand everything he his telling her which worries me. I don't really want her to know the truth about Beyond being her Father, it would just confuse her and then she would get upset about him being in prison.
Angelica had returned back to our apartment about 3 days ago, she had enjoyed her time with Blaze and Nonie. Eva as started to accept her now, she even told me that she missed her while she was staying with her Auntie Nonie and Blaze. But then she asked me if she could have a sleepover at Blaze's apartment, I told her I would ask Nonie the next time she came to visit us. But for now Eva and Angelica were fast asleep in Eva's bedroom, they had started to share the same bed about a day ago. They told me it was like having a sleepover party every night, I thought it was quite sweet that they now enjoyed each others company.
I covered up my mouth as I yawned, it was getting late now. I heard my bedroom's door open, I looked up from my book I was reading and watched A closing the door quietly behind him. He was on his mobile phone again, he's been talking about Angelica to a few of The Wammy House's letters for the past few days. He wants to find her Aunt and reunite them before she get's sent to the orphanage, I've never seen him so serious about a case before I thought to myself as I watched him flip his mobile phone shut. He looked pretty pleased with himself for some reason, I guess that means he's finally getting somewhere with Angelica's case.
" Elizabeth, I've done it!" He smiled as sat down on the bed and placed his mobile phone on the bedside's cabinet. " I think I've found Adèle's location, but first the orphanage wants to make sure that they're related even though Angelica's Mother was Adèle's twin Sister. It's some stupid test they've got to do before Angelica is allowed to make contact with her Aunt, also they need to make sure it's Adèle because her surname as changed to Harlow. Maybe she's got married or something in the last few years, but I'm defiantly sure it's her..."
" That's great news, well done you..." I said.
" Thank you, but let's hope I'm right and that we'll get these results back quickly..." He said with a sigh. " But Watari doesn't seem to be wanting to pick up his phone right now, he must be busy or asleep or just avoiding my calls. I wanted to talk to him about Adèle's exact location, it puzzled me slightly which kind of worries me..."
" That's not like Watari to ignore your calls, but where is Adèle living and why is it puzzling you?" I asked.
" It's nothing sugar, I'll work it out in the morning when I'm more awake..." He replied.
" Okay, but on a good note this is still great news... " I smiled and closed my book. " Do you think Watari will now allow Angelica to stay with us because her Aunt's location is now known to the orphanage?"
" Maybe, I don't see it being a problem..." He replied as he looked at me over his shoulder with a slight smile on his face. " But you do realize that sometimes things don't work out the way you want them to, I mean what if they're not related by blood? I can't really say until checks have been made by the orphanage, but it looks very promising to me..."
" But Adèle and Éléonore were twin Sisters, they looked alike and they both share the same birthday. We knew them when we were children, so we know they exist... " I sighed. " Surely the orphanage knows that they are related because they have all of their medical files on record just like yours and mine, it's that or Warati as been very dense for the past 10 years..."
" Don't blame Watari, if anyone as been dense at the orphanage then I'd blame Roger because it's his department when Watari is not around..." He chuckled.
" Aiden, I'm being serious..." I said.
" So am I Elizabeth, but we've got to be realistic here..." He said while he took my book from my hands and then placed it down on the bedside cabinet. " I'll give D a call in the morning and see if he's got access to the medical files at the orphanage because my password as been block out for some reason in the last 24 hours. I'll try and pull a few strings until Watari gets in touch with me, I'll get these results back even if it kills me..."
" Okay, are you coming to bed now?" I asked as I lay back in my bed. " I won't be pleased if I hear you pacing around the bedroom again in the early hours of the morning, you've started to get dark circles under your eyes you know..."
" Don't said that sugar, I'm to young to be a panda detective..." He chuckled. " I'm going to take a quick shower and then get something to eat before bed, do you want anything from the kitchen while I'm there?"
" No thank you, I'll be asleep by the time you get back..." I replied.
" Alright, good night..." He said.
I gave him a smile before he got up from our bed, I watched him pull his t shirt over his head and hang it over the bed's wooden headboard. I rolled over onto my side and pulled my blankets over my shoulder as I told him to put his t shirt in the laundry basket. He said yes Mum as he took his t shirt from the bed's headboard, he told me good night again and left the bedroom. I snuggled my face into my pillow and yawned again, I guess I better get to sleep before A begins snoring for the night.
I was woken by someone knocking on the apartment's door, I groaned as I opened my eyes and sat up in my bed. I looked over at the alarm clock on the bedside's cabinet and saw that it wasn't even 1am yet. I heard the knocking at the apartment's door again, I sighed to my as I pulled my blankets away from myself and gently patted at A's arm with a yawn. I watched him stir in his sleep, he asked me what was wrong in a sleepy tone. I told him that somebody was knocking at the apartment's door, he quickly sat up in our bed and swung his legs out of the bed. He yawned as he ran his fingers through his messy hair as he glanced at the alarm clock, he switched the bedside cabinet's lamp on and got out bed.
" What a funny time for visitors, this better be important or I'll knock whoever is at the door out..." He sighed and grabbed his hoody from the bottom of the bed. " Elizabeth, get your housecoat on and go to the girl's bedroom just in case it's an unwelcome visitor. I'll call you if it's safe, do you understand?"
" Of course I do, I know the drill well enough by now..." I replied.
I watched him put his hoody on, he zipped it up and made his way over to the bedroom's door. I grabbed my housecoat from the bottom of the bed and quickly followed after him. I put my housecoat on as he opened the bedroom's door, he took his baseball bat from behind his blue coloured sofa chair and left the room. I hurried across the room to Eva's bedroom, I switched the living room area's light on and gave A a smile before I disappeared into my Daughter's bedroom. I checked on the girls and smiled when I saw them snuggling together, they looked so cute I thought to myself as I turned my attention to the doorway. I walked back over to the door, I peaked around the door frame of the door and watched A unbolting the apartment's door.
I took hold of the door's handle and gave him a nod when he looked at me over the shoulder, I was ready to lock Eva's bedroom door in case it was an intruder. I watched him unlock the door, he quickly opened it and held his baseball bat in front of him in a batter's position. But to my surprise he lowered it, he stepped away from the doorway and I saw Watari standing on the doorstep. A gesture him into the apartment with his hand, Watari gave him a nod and entered our apartment. I stepped into the room and partly closed Eva's bedroom door behind me and wrapped my housecoat around myself with a sigh, I wonder why Watari is here?
" Watari, what are you doing here?" Asked A.
" I apologize for my late visit, but it's an emergency and I will need to escort your family to the hotel we are staying at for the rest of the night. I would suggest you pack an overnight bag and dress the children warmly, there is quite a cool chill in the air this morning..." Replied Watari as he removed his hat and gave me a kind smile. " But do not be alarmed, you will be safe in mine and L's company..."
" Alarmed? What do you mean by alarmed?" Asked A while he closed the apartment's door. " It's 1am in the morning and you've just woken us up to tell us you want us to spend the night at some hotel with you guys, I'm not going anywhere until you've given me a good reason to go with you. If there is some kind of trouble brewing then I would like to know about it, I'm not just going to wake up the girls for some idle threat.."
" I understand Akira, I truly do..." Replied Watari. " But this concerns Angelique Barret, we have discovered her Father's whereabouts in Los Angeles. I am afraid to say that the news is troublesome, it turns out her Father's true identity is no other than Alexander DiBiase. I believe you may have had a run in with him many years ago when you first moved to Los Angeles, so if you would please now pack yourself an overnight bag and follow me to my car. I will explain more to you both when we arrive at the hotel, I believe L will be more descriptive with the details than me..."
" The son of a bitch, this can't be true..." Sighed A.
" Akira, I would advise you to hurry..." Said Watari as he put his hat back on his head. " We are unsure yet if your apartment as been watched by gang members employed by Alexander DiBiase, I have been informed by a secret source that Miss Barret's Father as been searching for her since the attack on his night club. I regret to say that you could be in danger too which means your family is not safe here, I will help in anyway to make your escape quick..."
" Elizabeth, do what Watari says and get dressed too before we leave the apartment..." Said A as he looked over at me with a concerned expression on his face. " Go and pack a overnight bag for the girls, I'll explain everything to you later when we have time. Watari, would you also please call ahead to L and make sure Nonie is informed about Angelica's Father's identity. You see Angelica spent a few nights at her apartment with Blaze, just to be on the safe side I would advise you to get her to the hotel too... "
" As you wish sir..." Smiled Watari.
" Thank you, let's get moving then..." Said A.
" Okay..." I nodded.
I switched Eva's bedroom light on and grabbed a sports bag from underneath the dressing table, I'll wake the girls up when I've got dressed I thought to myself as I walked over to the dresser. I quickly packed them the bare essentials and a few board games so they didn't get bored. I hurried to my bedroom after I packed the girls an overnight bag, I got changed into some jeans and a light blue jumper. I helped A pack some of our belongings into a travel bag as he got dressed, he told me he would go and get the girls with Watari. I gave him a nod as I zipped up our travel bag, I switched our bedroom's light off and closed the door behind me.
I was met by Watari in the living room area, he took my travel bag from my hand and he told me to follow him to his car. He explained to me that A was already in his car with the girls, he then went onto tell me that I needed to lock the apartment up before I left it. I told okay as I picked my handbag up from the coffee table, I hung my bag over my shoulder while I followed Watari to the apartment's doorway and took my set of keys from the bowl near the front door. I switched the room's light off, I closed the door behind me and locked it.
I followed Watari down the steps of the apartment, he opened his car's back door for me and I got into the back of the car where the girls were sleeping. Watari closed the back door of his car for me, I turned my attention to A in the front of the car and watched him talking on his mobile phone. He looked at me over his shoulder and gave me a slight smile, he then mouthed the word Nonie at me. It wasn't long until Watari got into the driver's seat of the car, he started up the car's ignition and told us we were going to The Ritz-Carlton which was over an hour from our apartment. I crossed my arms as the car pulled away from our apartment, something tells me we wouldn't be getting much sleep today.
