Hello :) I hope you're all having nice weather! Thanks so much for all the reviews, especially looksatbooks and Charrrr for telling me that i got my POV's a little muddled :) I think i've sorted it out now but i'm sorry for any confusion i caused :)


Uriel's POV

'So…where exactly are you taking me?' Saff asks, taking hold of my hand as we walk out of the house to the direction of the town.

'Well I was thinking…maybe the cinema? That's the classic date location.'

'I've never been to a cinema.'

'I think you're going to like it. I'm not sure what films are going to be out though.'

'What would you suggest?'

'Hmmm….we could go for a romance film with lots of smoothing?' Uri chuckled. 'Or maybe a comedy because I love listening to you laugh…Or we could go for a scary movie so I get the excuse to snuggle up close to you.' Uri asked, winking at me.

'Well they all sound tempting …I like the one with the snuggling.'

'I like that one too.' Uri grinned.

It didn't take that long to get to the cinema: only about a 20 minute walk. Saff was so excited to go and was practically skipping along beside me. Once we arrived, I told Saff that I would go and get the popcorn and drinks while she gets tickets to see some thriller about ghosts which I heard was good. I had just finished buying the food when Saff walked over empty handed.

'No tickets?' I ask confused.

'They wouldn't sell them to me. They said I need ID.' She moans and I burst out with laughter.

'It's not funny Uri!'

'Did you tell them you were 24?' I managed to say after laughing so hard.

'They didn't believe me.' She pouts.

'That's because you look like a kid.' I pointed out.

'I do not!' She argued

'hmm…maybe it's the height then.' I tease and she elbows me in the ribs in response.

In the end I had to go with her to buy the tickets seeing as I looked just a bit older than 24.

'Are you with her, sir?' The lady behind the desk asked.

'Yes. Is there a problem?' I reply.

'We asked her before for ID.'

'ID? She's my wife. We have two kids.' I say, putting my arms around Saff's waist. The lady behind the desk falters and hands over two tickets.

'Wife?' Saff askes with amusement as we walk away.

'It seemed like the only way she would let you in.' I explain although deep down I liked pretending Saff was my wife.

The film was actually really good. It was jumpy movie although most times it didn't scare me since I expected it. Saff on the other hand had never seen a scary movie before and actually had to move seats so she was sitting on my lap and could hid her face against my chest when it got scary. After the film, we walked out into the South African sun to and Saff gave me the biggest beam.

'Did you like it?' I ask.

'Yes! I don't think I'm going to sleep for a week though!' She exclaims, smiling.

'You won't be scared because I'll be right there beside you.' Uriel reassures me.

'What if you get scared?' She gives me a mischievous grin.

'I don't get scared. I'm a big boy now.'

'Sure, sure…I saw you in the cinema back there. You jumped just as much as I did.'

'Swiftly changing subject…did you want some ice cream?' I laugh.

'I'm not going to let this go scardy-cat…but yes I would love some ice-cream.'

We walk for a short while around the town, looking for somewhere that sells ice-cream and wasn't too busy. I noticed after a while that Saff became very quiet at kept looking behind her shoulder.

'Uri…don't turn around.' She whispers quietly. My mind starts panicking about what could possibly be behind us.

'I think we're being followed.' She says quietly, facing forward. 'The man in the black sunglasses. Don't look just yet.'

'Your uncle?' I ask.

'No. It's not him. I don't know who it is.'

I quickly sneak a peek over my shoulder, trying to make it look as casual as possible. The man with the black sunglasses was on the phone to someone but glanced at us every now and again.

'Lets go inside to get ice-cream.' I decided pointing to the café on our right. 'Then if his still following us by the time we get out, I'll let my family know.'

'Okay.' Saff said, trying to sound brave.

This café was still very busy since it was a hot Saturday. However, the crowd would be good for blending in.

'Okay…let me guess you favourite ice-cream flavour….I'm thinking maybe…strawberry?' I say, trying to take her mind off the man outside.

'You guessed right. How did you know?' She asks surprised.

'You work in a smoothie shop so I guess you like fruit.'

'What's your favourite?'

'Chocolate fudge.' I grin and order our ice creams.

We talk about anything to take our mind of the man who could possibly be following us. We talk about other films and my work and what Denver looks like and random stuff. We finish our ice-creams shortly after although we are both quite peckish still. I hand Saff some money to go and buy something extra to eat.

While she is lining up, the man with the black sunglasses comes into the shop. I instantly stiffen and anxiously look to where Saff was. Saff doesn't seem to notice that he's in the café. As she turns around, the man with sunglasses steps behind her and says something to her out of ear shot. Saff looks a little faint and quickly hurries over to where I'm sitting and the man walks out the café.

'Saff! Are you okay?' I ask. She nods uncertainly.

'What did he say to you?'

Saff was quite for a moment but then took hold of my hand. 'He said my name.' She whispered.

I sharply inhale. 'He knows you.' Saff nods.

'Right. I'm taking you home. We need to tell the others about this.'

'Hey love birds! Did you have a nice time?' Will smiles as we walk through the house.

'mmm' Saff says, her mind clearly another place. I managed to nod at Will who looks a little confused.

'Did you argue or something?' He asks telepathically.

'No. Look, we'll tell you later. When Taz and Jos go to bed.'

Saff cheers up a bit when she sees Taz and Jos. Taz is twirling around in a new dress which she must have brought down the town which was pale pink and frilly. She really did look adorable. Sky and the rest of the girls must be relieved that my mother has found a new victim to dress in cutesy dresses.

'Oh Tazzy you look beautiful!' Saff exclaims as Tazzy spins around to give her a 360 degrees view.

'I brought something for you too mama.' Said Tazzy, pulling out a hair clip with a large blue flower on it.

'I love it Tazzy.' Saff smiles as Tazzy clips it in Saff's curly hair.

I sat down on the arm of the sofa, thinking about the man who was following us. Sky must have felt my anxiety as she mouthed 'are you okay?' to me. I nod in reply although I know she doesn't believe me as she can read emotions.

'What about you Jos? Did you have a nice time?' Saff asks

'Great mama. We won the match by two goals and Vic let me try some of his beer.' Jos grins.

'Shhhh, we weren't going to tell your mum about that.' Vic stage-whispers to Jos and winked at me.

'What about you mama did you have a good day?' Jos asks.

Saff looks at me before replying. 'Yes. The film was great.'

My brothers look at me with concern as though they're trying to work out what happened between us. I don't meet their eye. After dinner, Saff and I put Jos and Tazzy up to bed; they both fall asleep almost as soon as their heads touch the pillow. I squeeze Saff's hand reassuringly and take her downstairs.

'Right, what's wrong?' Will asks almost as soon as we sit down.

'Did something happen at the cinema?' My dad frowns.

'No. It was after the cinema. We were being followed.' I say.

'Followed by whom?' Rogue asks.

'We don't know. Apparently he knows Saff though.' I say calmly.

'Are you sure you don't know him, Saff?' Victor asks.

'No…well I don't remember him anyway.' Saff says.

'Do you think he followed you back here?' Victor asks, looking serious. I mentally kick myself for not thinking about that. We could have led the stalker right back to our house.

'I didn't see him on the way back home.' Saff replies.

We tell them as much information as we can about the stalker, leaving out the bit about Saff's uncle since I know she gets uncomfortable talking about him. It's beginning to get late and I start getting tired so I take Saff up to bed with me.

Saff collapses on the bed, still in her clothes. Tiny frown lines appear on her forehead from worrying.

I climb up onto the bed, bending over her to kiss her on the lips. She kisses back, more passionately. The kiss is full of wanting, lust and longing. Before I knew it, I had my shirt of and was just about to lift Saff's top off before she stopped me.

'Maybe we should stop.' Saff says softly.

I sigh and run my fingers through my hair. 'God I'm so sorry, I just got carried away. I wasn't thinking.' I start to apologies but Saff puts a finger to my lips to shut me up.

'No I didn't mean it like that. I just think we should stop because your mother is downstairs.'

I laugh nervously 'Oh yeah, I kind of forgot.'

'I think…I would like to do it again….another time though?' She says sheepishly.

'I would definitely like to do it again another time.'

Saff smiles sweetly and cuddles down beside me, her head resting on my chest.

'Goodnight Uriel.' She hums.

'Night Saff. Sweet dreams.'
