HEATH POV

We walked through the front door of the house defeated. We had tried and failed, something that usually doesn't happen to us. Charlie, Ruby and Bianca all sprung to their feet "where is she?" Ruby asked frantically. I sighed "on a plane heading to London" Bianca looked at us in disbelief "but… you couldn't convince her?" she questioned softly "we tried, it didn't work" Brax said sitting down next to Charlie and taking Mckenzie out of her bouncer. I watched as everyone sank into a couch, depressed that we could not get her to come back. There was a knock at the door, I opened it to see Cooper on the other side "I here to take Bella to lunch" he said nervously "she's not here" I replied simply "what? We had plans" he said confused "yeah, she's on a plane heading to London so I guess you're just going to have to change your plans aren't you pretty boy!" I said getting angry "hey, hey"
Bianca said as she slid a hand over my back. "here she left this for you" Bianca said as she handed Cooper a letter, the same she had left for all of us "thanks" he said confused as he turned and stumbled back to his car.

COOPER POV

I walked through the front door of my house, I saw my dad sitting at the table in a crowd of paper work. "hi dad" I mumbled, he looked up from his work "oh hi son, thought you were going out with that girl" he said looking back at his work "yeah, she's uh gone to London" I managed as I slumped down into the seat across from him. "really? Sounds interesting" I knew he wasn't really listening to me but I needed to hear it out loud. "tough case" I asked "mm, one of my old clients wants to appeal, a waste of time really but I get paid to do a job so" he said shrugging his shoulders "who's the client" I asked not really interested "ah a Mr Ryan Baylis" he said looking at me again. I nodded as he returned to his work without another word. I took this opportunity to open my letter.

Cooper,

Reading this you have probably already been told that I won't be able to make out lunch date. I know we haven't been together long but with what time we spent together, it was really amazing. I feel a connection with you that I haven't felt before and I wish we had more time to explore it. I left because I have been stalked for the last few weeks, the threats were originally directed at me but now they have been directed at you and my family. Which is why I came to your house frantic the other day. I have to leave to keep my family safe and to keep you safe. I will never forget you or the time we spent together and I definitely won't forget what I feel for you. I wish you all the luck in the world and I know you will find someone who deserves your love, and who will love you with all their heart. You are a very special man and I you and I could have really gone far. Don't forget me, as no-one likes to be forgotten but please move on. Know that I will always care for you and I did not leave because of you but rather to protect you.

Good Luck for the future Cooper,

Bella xx

Well at least I knew why she had been acting so weird, but I still wish I had of had the chance to say goodbye. I felt an intense connection with Bella, on that I had never felt with any other girl before. She was special, everything about her made my heart flutter and now I would most likely never get to see her again. 'Just my luck' I thought to myself .

CASEY POV

Charlie and Bianca had just served lunch, the rest of us were all just sitting in the lounge room staring absentmindedly at the television. "come on guys, you have something to eat" Bianca said. We all stood up and headed over to the table when there was a knock at the door "I'll get it" I said grabbing a juice and heading for the door. I opened it and dropped my glass, it smashed to the floor causing everyone to look over "oh my god, Bella" I muttered. She smiled weakly "hi" she whispered.

I grabbed a towel and quickly mopped up the spilled juice. Bella sat at the table explaining to everyone what happened after we left. "After I got on the plane there was a delay in take-off and they hadn't shut the doors, I was about to turn my phone off when I got this" she said holding up her phone the message on screen read 'leaving the country will not stop me, I will travel to London to get you my sweet. But since you tried to escape me maybe I will take your family out first. Shall we start with your niece – what's her name… Mckenzie?' Charlie gasped as she read the last of the message, Brax wrapped his arm around her comfortingly. "I know, I knew then that running away was not going to stop this person soI took the opportunity to get off, by the time I got my luggage and stuff off the plane you guys had already gone. I went for a drive to Stuarts Point for a while to clear my head before heading here." She finished. "We so glad you're back Belle" Bianca said all of us nodding in reply "you know we are going to get whoever keeps harassing you" Brax said looking seriously at Bella "yeah I know" she replied with a smile while taking a sip of her juice.
