Chloe was still on edge, terrified she'd bump into Evan and he'd hurt her. Ange had contacted the police but there was nothing they could do if Sophie wasn't willing to talk to them. He'd done nothing illegal to Chloe.

She'd been into work a few times but was so scared she'd see Evan she refused to leave Darwin, her ward alone and any patient who needed a gs consult she'd transfer to another doctor.

"You okay Chlo" Nicky had asked one day. "I'm okay, I'm just a bit anxious. Evan could come and find me at anytime. It's okay here at work because there's always people but tomorrow I'm working a different shift to mum and I'll be at my mums alone and he knows that. I'll have to lock myself in." She was trying her best to breathe deeply.

Nicky had noticed this and bumped into Ange in pulses, the coffee shop. "Miss Goddard, do you have a second?" She asked.

"Hi Nicky, call me Ange." She said sitting at a table with the younger doctor. "Is everything okay?"

"It's about Chloe." Nicky said

"Is she okay?" Ange asked panicked

"No worse than this morning." Nicky said "but she's really anxious about being home alone tomorrow. And i spoke to Cam and we wondered if Chloe would like to move in with us. Now Frieda has gone back to the Ukraine we've got a free room. We all get on well and to be honest we're struggling to keep up with the rent just the two of us. And even better Evan doens't know where we live." Nicky finished "but we know she's struggling so we thought we'd ask you, if you think that it's a good idea." Nicky looked at Ange.

"Go ask her." Ange said simply.

"Hey Chlo." Nicky said when they were in the staffroom later. "Me and Cam we're talking and we wondered if you wanted to move in with us. Since Frieda's gone back to Kiev we've got a free room and we wondered if you wanted to move in and obviously Evan doesn't know where that is and of course we'd love to have you it would be a laugh. I'm sure you'd be more fun than Freida. And I could really do with splitting the bills 3 ways rather than 2." Chloe knew where they lived, she'd given Nicky a lift to work a few times, never with Evan though, and it was only a few streets away from her mother and after Nicky had explained the rent and other logistics it was settled Chloe was going to move in that evening. She text her mother to meet at lunchtime.

"Everything okay Chloe?" Ange asked.

"Yeah, I was talking to Nicky and she asked if I'd like to move in with her and Cam because Frieda's moved out. And it's only a few streets away from you and Evan doesn't know" Chloe garbled but Ange understood.

Ange didn't want to tell Chloe that Nicky had already spoken to her about it so pretended to be surprised. "Oh right, and how do you feel about that Chloe?"

"I would like to move in with them I think. I think I'd be less anxious about Evan, and like I said Evan doesn't know where it is. Can you help me move my stuff after work. I think we both finish at 6 right."

"Yes, of course. I'll miss you. You know you're welcome round mine any time."

"Your flat is lovely" Ange told a Nicky after they'd moved some of Chloe's stuff in.

"Thanks." Nicky said "If I was smaller I'd be like the annoying sister wanting to borrow all your clothes. I'm jealous of your wardrobe." Nicky joked.

"I'm guessing you didn't have that issue when Frieda lived here." Chloe joked back. She seemed calmer somehow like being in a new environment was good for her.

"Oh I got you this." Ange smiled passing Chloe a tiny cactus, "while you were looking all around Asda for fake milk. A housewarming present, and it barley needs watering so you hopefully won't kill it."

"Hey." Chloe said indignantly "I think you'll find it's you who usually kills the plants. Me and Colin the Cactus here will be very happy together drinking our oat milk and I won't kill him." All three of them laughed. "Cam will be back soon. I could make us dinner?" Nicky suggested "you could stay too Ange."

"No don't worry, I'll leave you two, and Colin the cactus to settle in. Night girls" Ange saw herself out. She saw a green Ford Focus parked across the road. The same car Evan drives. She shook her head and told herself she was being paranoid. Why would Evan follow Chloe, he'd been all over than nurse earlier at the hospital. The young Portuguese one. Constança. He seemed to have got over Chloe quickly, mercifully. It would take Chloe a little longer to feel less anxious around him but seeing her tonight it had seemed she was on the up.
