BELLAS P.O.V-
Yes I was nervous to leave my baby boy for so long, but I knew that he would be safe.
Andy planned out Maddox's whole 3rd birthday. But of course it was Batman themed. We even bought him the cutest little batman outfit and Andy matched him. I was catwoman. Our little family was perfect.
Ellie ended up coming with Emmett and it was almost a relief to see them together... I felt deep down in my heart that they belonged together. Jake and Lindsay showed up as well, they were still going strong. Andy's parents, my mom, BVB and a few of their family members and gfs. Even my grandma and grandfather showed up.
Maddox was adored by the people closest to us and I loved it. It was an awesome day and a perfect 3rd birthday party. Maddox was so tired out by the endless amounts of attention and loving. He skipped his nap for the day and ended up falling asleep at 8:30 that night. My mom was still at our house and I had the leaving conversation with her. Sne was completely ok with me going... I was almost hoping that she'd protest just a little bit.
Again, Christmas and Andys birthday also went by in a blur. Except for this time I didn't try and run away. Hahahahahah.
Instead of having the whole entire month of January off, BVB were to start touring January 5th. I was so excited to leave but I was going to miss Maddox so much and I couldn't stop thinking about it.
We were in the airport, getting ready to leave after saying our byes and I could feel a panic attack coming on.
"You there baby?" Andy and I were sitting in the airport Starbucks, enjoying a hot mocha.
"Uh yeah... I'm sorry, was I drifting off into my thoughts again...?"
He nodded at me, bringing my hand to his lips. "Are you thinking about Maddy?"
I nodded. "Yeah, Andy I'm so scared."
He kissed my hand sweetly. "Listen to me. You have nothing to be scared about. He will be well taken care of and we will face time with him. He will be just the same as when you left him. You are such a great mother Isabella. It makes me love you even more and I didn't know that was possible..I'm so glad you are my sons mother."
My belly flooded with butterflies as he grinned at me, a few strands of his hair falling into his eyes. "Thank you so much baby. You two are my world and I want to give my all to both of you guys."
¥
Andy immediately fell asleep on the plane. He was always so exhausted. He never got enough sleep. I always worried about him too...
"Bella..." I looked up to see CC, making his way down the aisle and he sat down next to me in the empty seat.
"CEECE." I strained my voice, trying to hold back some of my excitement. "It's good to see you man. I saw you and Jake get to the gate just on time, I thought you guys were gonna miss the flight!"
He laughed quietly. "Me too. We were preoccupied...."
I raised an eyebrow. "You're not gonna like what I have to tell you. But I don't think Andy should know."
I felt my stomach clench uncomfortably at his tone. We honestly didn't need anymore s**t. I was already worried about leaving Maddox. Why did there always have to be something.
"Ok Ceece... What's going on?"
He sighed, staring at me intently. "Well, Jake and I always pay extra attention to the media and gossip and just s**t that goes on around us that would affect the band negatively. And we happened to catch a conversation between two of the guys that are coming on the road with us to help out with random s**t that our record label hired from a tour management company... We do it sometimes, sometimes we don't. And since we are going to England... Anyway... The one guy, he's..."
I could feel the hesitation heavily. He didn't want to tell me but he knew he had too.
"He's Juliets Fiancé. Go figure right? Anyway he's pissed that he has to be here, he had no choice. He hates Andy. We need to keep an eye on him. I don't have a good feeling about him at all..."
Well obviously. How f*****g ironic did that have to be. That sounded suspicious to me.
"You're gonna have to point him out to me ok?"
CC nodded and put a hand on my shoulder.
We chatted quietly for a little while catching up. I hadn't seen any of BVB in so long, I mean they were at Maddox's 3rd birthday party last month but that was the first time in about 6 months. When I had been on tour with them for months at a time I had grown so close with them like I've said before.
Eventually I dozed and awoke to Andy talking to CC. They both smiled at me and CC couldn't help but laugh. "Damn girl, you're like a golden retriever or some shit." I could feel my cheeks grow hot. Yeah... I drooled.
"Shut up dude." Andy punched him lightly in the shoulder.
"Sorry... Hahahaha." CC continued to laugh. I couldn't help but laugh at him laughing at me.
About an hour later we landed at London City Airport. This was my second time being here with them. I was extremely tired, it was only 5 in the morning here. I knew I'd probably be up all day though. They played a place called the garage tonight. It was a sold out show. It had been sold out last time too and it was an intense crowd. They were loved here.
Luckily there was a Starbucks near by and we were all gonna head there right after getting our baggage.
I noticed a black haired blue eyed, very tall looking guy glaring at CC and I as we walked over. Andy had to use the bathroom. How convenient.
"That's him." CC whispered. Of course it was. What the f**k had that b***h told him. Obviously it wasn't good and obviously she was trying to compensate for losing Andy cause this dude was very similar. That in itself I didn't like...
It made me suddenly grow suspicious of the guy at the bar I had been dancing with.
NONONO BELLA. I was digging way too deep. She wasn't still obsessed with him....
But then a thought crossed my mind. If I lost/left Andy would I desperately try to get him back?.....but I already knew the answer.
YES.
Would I try to kill someone though? No. That's not the kind of person that I was.
I had never fangirled over Andy before. I had never felt any feelings for him looking at a single picture of him before I actually got to speak to him and be in his presence. But he was very hard not to like even after a tiny conversation between the two of us.
He was a very likable person. I admit he could be a bit full of himself sometimes. I mean how could someone so attractive and adored not, I put him in his place. And after being in a relationship with him for close to 4 years now and getting all those little personal moments with him. Owning all of those. Just being able to sit around with him doing nothing but eat and watch movies and tv shows. I fell deeper in love with him. Every single simple moment with him had me falling deeper. I couldn't explain it. In words I couldn't. I mean there are plenty of words to explain how much I adore and love him, but it was like our souls were intertwined. They craved and needed each other for strength. And when we made love or f****d, every single time it added a link in the chain that was our love. It made me feel even more connected to him. There was just something about the way our bodies intertwined. The way our skin felt pressed tightly together.
Juliet got to be with Andy for a good 2 years, or even more before Andy and I's relationship. Did she feel the way I had about him? Was it that strong for her? Would she still be trying to sabotage us after so long... Being as in love with Andy as I was, I could answer that with a yes. It was definitely possible. Did she love this fiancé of hers. Everything was just so ironic.
CC grabbed my bag for me and just then I turned to see Andy headed in our direction. He gave me a huge smile and I could feel my knees weaken.
As soon as he got to me he grabbed me in a huge hug and squeezed. "3 minutes away from you was way too long."
CC laughed and as soon as Andy let go I caught a glimpse of the tall guy walk past with the other one and there was a devilish expression on his face. It gave me a gross feeling.
"Come on, the bus is outside waiting." Jake, Jinxx and Ash walked up behind us.
We followed behind them carrying a few suitcases. This whole situation had not good written all over it. My evil senses were tingling.......
As soon as we got on the bus I texted my mom to see how Maddox was doing. He was just about to eat dinner. I told her to call me when he was done before she put him to sleep.
Starbucks was closed for another two hours so we decided we'd just got coffee with our room service.
When we reached the hotel I rushed off the bus. I didn't want tall guy touching my bag. I didn't really want him touching any of the bags. Ironically enough he got off right behind me and bumped into me, almost knocking me to the ground.
"Oh my gosh I'm so sorry Bella, are you ok?" He put his hands out as if trying to touch me but I had only just stumbled and didn't need help. I backed away from him and continued walking towards the back of the bus.
"I'm fine thanks." Was all I said to him. I looked back once to see Andy standing on the bottom step of the bus watching. He had an unreadable expression on his face but when he noticed me looking at him with almost pleading eyes, he quickly jumped down and headed for me.
As soon as Andy was by my side, tall guy backed off and didn't continue to try and get closer to me. He gave me the creeps.
"You ok, baby?" Andy asked looking over at him, and I noticed the rest of the guys starting to get off of the bus.
"I'm ok. Let's get our bags and head up to our room I'm hungry." He nodded, grabbing both of our heaviest bags and then handed me the small ones.
He tapped me on the butt to walk in front of him as we made our way up the front steps of the hotel and headed in through the door.
"Andy I-"
"In our room, not here." I watched him look over his shoulder at tall guy in hot pursuit.
He quietly gave the front desk lady his name and she handed him our key. We immediately turned to rush to the elevator. I had a feeling he didn't want tall guy knowing our room number.
The doors closed before anyone else got on.
"Don't talk to him unless you have to. Don't get personal with him. And whatever you do, don't trust him." Andy suddenly said.
My mouth fell open wide as the elevator door opened and Andy nudged my butt with the suitcase again.
"Wha-"
"Wait." Andy said, tapping my butt again with the suitcase. "Here."
He sat every thing he was carrying down and pulled out our key card to open the door. After picking everything up again, we went inside.
As soon as he shut the door he dropped everything and turned to look at me. I dropped everything too.
"You and CC aren't very smart. How could you be sure that I was sleeping?" He grinned crookedly at me. So he had heard and he knew who the guy was.
"I'm sorry baby I wasn't trying to keep a secret from you."
Andy pulled me into his arms and gave me a light squeeze before letting me go again. "It's not a secret. His name is James. I make it my business to know who is traveling with my band mates and myself. And I had to be extra careful with the love of my life with us."
He kissed my forehead and just then my phone began to ring.
"Maddox." We both said at the same time and smiled at each other. I pulled out my phone and it was my mom requesting face time.
Seeing him on my phone made my heart ache to be with him even more but I knew he was safe and Andy kept his arm around my waist the whole time we talked to him for comfort.
"Ny ny." He said before we finally hung up with him and afterwards I squealed loudly into Andy's ear. "Damn woman...." I laughed loudly.
"Ok, let's order room service and afterwards I'll eat you, sound good?" He asked me, his lips playing around my ear. I could feel my skin growing hot. "Y-yeah.... S-sounds good...."
After f*****g on a full stomach... Which is never a very bright idea, Andy and I fell fast asleep, only to be woken by a loud knocking on the door.
"What the f**k!?" Andy startled me by exclaiming. He kissed my cheek gently and then carefully untangled himself from the blankets and my limbs. I admired his naked bottom as he bent down to pick up his boxers and slip them on.
And then he quickly made his way to the door.
As soon as he opened it, Jake flew in with CC. I sat straight up in bed, covering myself.
"Oh s**t! Bella! Sorry!" Jake exclaimed and they both turned around. I quickly picked up my bra and shirt, putting them on. I kept my bottom half covered and stayed in the bed.
"It's ok, turn around." They did right away and Andy sat on the edge of the bed.
"What the hell? What's so urgent you couldn't wait until later to tell us?" Andy asked very irritated.
"f*****g JULIET JUST CHECKED INTO THE HOTEL!" CC shouted.
Andy immediately looked back at me, a furious expression replacing the simple irritation.
"What the hell is that b***h thinking!? Does she never learn!?" Andy asked no one in particular.
*I KNEW IT. I f*****g KNEW IT.
Andy thanked CC and Jake for the information before they left, walking them to the door looking obviously very worried. Jake had ridden with Andy in the ambulance after she had attacked me that summer. Andy told me that the guys could barely keep him from physically attacking her after the incident.
Andy had showed up at CCs for the tape and the two of them had a long conversation about the consequences of trying anything else. Blackmail was the only possible solution to his problem.
But now, she thought she had the hard copy of the s*x tape Andy had recorded so who knew what she would try. And this James fella... Was he for real? Or was he a decoy like Shayla had been.
I don't think Juliet was planning on me coming with BVB over here since we had a son.
Conspiracy theories... That's what it all sounded like but there was no way in hell she would be here.... I mean unless she really wanted to be with her legit fiancé James... But why choose this tour to come with him when Andy would be on it?
Again the thought of how could you ever give up on and accept the fact that you lost Andy crossed my mind.
Was she going to try to kill me again? What a thought to have to have right?
My mind couldn't remember what she had done and finally after all these years, I finally do... And now I was a tad weary. To say the least.
"Bella." Andy sat back down on the bed and placed a hand on my leg. I jumped a little bit, again having been lost in my thoughts.
"Hmmm what?" I looked him in the face and he gave me a weak little smile.
"It's going to be ok. No one is going to hurt you. I won't let them." Every word he spoke was filled with raging emotion. I could tell he was reliving what had happened to me years ago.
But she had found a way to get to me then, who was to say it wouldn't happen again. I knew Andy was strong and smart. I knew he knew the games she played and how she operated.
Unlike Andy though, I was a woman like her and I knew how much Andy meant to me. I knew what I would do to get him back. I knew that she wasn't done yet. And our encounter in the bathroom wasn't going to be the last.
As long as her 'fiancé' James, was on the tour with us then she'd be close by. Waiting....
