Once we were back home, I quickly locked the doors and shut the kids windows. I kissed them and headed back downstairs. "Okay. Now tell me that your not worried." I sat down next to John on the sofa.

"Amy, I can't tell you that."

"How can you say that? He tried to kill us! And don't say he's changed because I know that he hasn't!"

"Amy please. Don't yell. There's nothing to worry about."

"Of course there is! Or are you forgetting the murderous side of him?"

"I think you're worrying over nothing."

"What? So I'm crazy now?" I glared at him.

"Amy I didn't say-"

"You said I was worrying over nothing. Isn't that pretty much the same?"

"No, Amy. We've got a restraining order. There's nothing to worry about."

"Yeah. A flimsy piece of paper will stop him." I hadn't realised how angry I'd gotten.

"That's enough Amy. No harm will come to you."

"You said that last time and I ended up unconscious in hospital for three days!" I jumped of the couch and stormed over to the door.

"Where are you going?" John called after me.

"To bed. Me and the kids are leaving in the morning. Come if you want."

When I got up the next morning light was already streaming in through the windows. I slipped n my dressing gown and wandered into Jacob's room. All four of the kids were sitting on the floor. "Morning mum." they chorused.

"Morning kids. Do us a favour and go and pack your school bags with some cloths and something to do." they shot me a questioning look. "It doesn't matter why. Just meet me downstairs in five minutes." they nodded and disappeared into their rooms. I quickly packed for myself and Sophie and waited at the bottom of the stairs. The kids came downstairs at the same time John appeared from the kitchen.

"Why aren't you packed daddy?" Luke gazed up at him.

"I'm staying here. I don't think there's any point in running."

"Mum, are you two splitting up?" Jacob asked and I saw a flash of panic cross the kids faces and Sophie whimpered.

"No. I just, don't feel safe here at the moment. Get in the car, Amber take Sophie please." I ushered them out of the door and turned to John. "You're really staying?"

"Yes." I nodded and gave him a quick hug.

"I'm sorry and I hope you understand. Call me if you need us." I quickly kissed his cheek before turning and leaving the house. I didn't make eye contact with him. I didn't want to see his heart break.

I watched as the woman I loved drove away from me. All because of the stupid git called Rory Williams.

Okay, I'm sooooooooooooo sorry that I've been neglecting this story. Please forgive me!
