*Later on that evening...*

It was now night time and I was doing my usual routine of making sure that all windows and doors were locked, covered by blinds and curtains and barricaded. To some people this might seem a little bit extreme but not to me, safety and staying in hiding was my main priority. Edward's safety was paramount! And this was what I was going to ensure stayed that way.

I was always careful about the houses that we rented and I always made sure that I took monthly to six monthly tenancy agreements. This was because I felt as if we always had to be on the move, to ensure mine and Edward's safety. I know people were looking for me but in my eyes the stakes were far too high. We were currently renting a two bedroom house in South Riding, in the town of Tangletown. There was a large garden around the back with a decking area covering around a quarter of the garden space. In all fairness Edward loved the garden, and even though I was on tender hooks every time we went out there together but we also had things put into place. Every time me and Edward went out side I changed both mine and his appearances, yes I didn't like doing this but this was the only way to ensure me and Edward's safety. Edward had questioned me on this in the past but I told him that it was to keep us safe, he did question what I meant by that a few times in the past but I was explain it away and he understood. Quite frankly I knew that at some point I was going to have to tell him the real reason why we had to do the things that we had to do but not at this age he wasn't old enough for that.

As I walked into the small corridor that only contained doorways to the master bedroom with an ensuite bathroom I slowly and as quietly as I could slid the large, wooden and heavy pine bookcase in front of the door way. When the bookcase was in place I then slowly and carefully then checked the blinds were taped down before I made my way towards the master bedroom and I smiled at the sight before me.

Edward was lightly snoring in the master bed with his back to me, I couldn't stop a grin from spreading across my face as I slowly and as quietly as I could locked and secured the bedroom door. I then walked around the bed and slowly and carefully climbed into the left hand side of the large master bed before pulling the duvet over me. I rolled over onto my left hand side and I smiled as I continued to watch my sleeping son sleeping next to me. I let my eyes roam over his little face and I reached over and stroked his dark purple locks slightly before settling down properly next to him. Edward was my world, I loved him dearly. I would do anything for him, yes this wasn't the life that I would want for him but I was trying to keep everything as normal for him as I possibly could, given the situation.

I pursed my lips together as the situation that me and Edward found ourselves in, ever since Edward was born we had shared a bedroom. Of course he didn't always share a bed and I always offered him the change to sleep in his own bed, but his bed was always in the same room as mine. There was no way that this could be any different, I think I would go into a full panic attack if we slept in different rooms. I needed to keep my eyes on Edward at all times, as I don't know how I would react if anything was to happen or if Edward went missing.

It took a great deal for me to put Edward into nursey, I felt really indifferent about it. I was scared to leave him with other people but he needed to socialise with children with this own age. I didn't want his development to be stunted by only being around me, when I talked to Edward about this he was excited but he didn't want to leave me. I explained to him that this was what happened when we grew up, but I also explained the things that we had to put in place. Like changing our appearances, he understood that this was the way that me and he had to do things. Again that this was easily explained away for now, but ultimately I think that this was something that I had to think about as I knew that this may start to affect him - which was never something that I wanted to inflict upon him.

The first day Edward went to Tangletown was tough on the pair of us, he was only in for a couple of hours after a couple of weeks of sit ins with him. When it was time for me to leave we both struggled, he didn't want me to leave. This was the first time that I left him in his life, so I knew that it was going to be hard for the pair of us. I held him tight and I whispered in his right ear and told him that I wouldn't be far in fact I would be waiting in the park outside. This seemed to reassure him slightly but I could tell by his eyes that he didn't like it. But he promised to try for me, when I walked out of the nursery I went straight to the park and I cried and I was on edge until I went back to collect him. And this is what we both did, Edward went to nursery in the mornings and lingered around the park until he was ready to be picked up and if I was honest I felt that this is what helped us both get through the situation. Edward seemed to really enjoy nursery now, which was something that I was really glad to hear.

The fact that Edward enjoyed nursery made things a lot easier for me to deal with the life that we had together, we had nearly been found numerous times with both me being pregnant with Edward and after Edward being born. Every situation had scared me senseless, there was even a time when I was in labour in which I was being chased. It was bad enough to be chased but at a time like that was terrifying and thankfully I was able to get away in time before they even clocked their eyes on me. And it was because of situations of this in which I tried to do my best for Edward, of course as a mother I was going to do this any way. I was adamant that I was not going to have the same type of relationship that I had with my mother. I wanted Edward to have everything that I hadn't and more, and I would do everything to do this as long as the safety aspects were in place for the pair of us. I was scared about when he had to go to school full term, but I know that when the time comes I would have to deal with it. I also knew that at some point we were probably going to be found, and quite frankly this really was something that I didn't want to happen. I knew that it probably was an eventuality but I don't know if I was going to be ever ready it when it happened. The story of why I had to go into hiding was so complex and scary I had trouble even dealing with it, even after all this time. I just hoped that when ever that time comes that I will be in a better place, but I won't hold my breath - as this was something that I believed would affect me for the rest of my life.
