A couple of days later...

Reggie stuck around and never left the warehouse, he always stayed with me. I got extremely bored, seeing an open opportunity to scare Reggie. He sat on the couch, looking at his phone. I begun tiptoeing towards him, I lifted my hands up above Reggie. As I was about to slam my hands down o to his shoulders, I stopped.

"Deanna Winston, don't you dare." Reggie said in a calm kinda tone. I placed my hands back by my side.

"How did you know I was-?" Reggie then cut me off.

"Deanna, you've been doing that same trick since you learnt to walk." He explained, as I groaned.

"Seriously?"

"Yep." He stated, then my phone started going off. I pulled it out of my back pocket, my heart started beating out of my chest. "Who is it? Deanna, who is it?" Reggie asked, it said no Caller ID. I answered it.

"Oh how are those injuries I gave you?" No no no no. "Speechless my darling? I know that your precious twins saved you. I don't know how." He doesn't know Reggies alive, which is a good thing.

"Deanna." Reggie said in a stern voice, I covered his mouth with my hand.

"What do you want Pello?" I questioned him, as Reggies eyes widen. Full of anger.

"Simply you my child."

"Well sorry, I've kinda got a guy already." Grayson. "And if you're looking for a bestie, to late. I've already got one of those as well." Ethan. But if he has them, as the boys aren't at the warehouse right now. I'm actually going to grab Lucille and bash Pello in the head, then make him a smoothie.

"Oh I know. Come and meet me, if you have the same skills to find people as your deceased uncle. I think you'll be able to find me quickly. Only you." He then hung up.

"Deanna! Why didn't you give me the phone?" Reggies asked in an angry tone.

"Because! If he wants me to come to him, he doesn't know you're alive Reggie! So we can go and take that to an advantage! Reggie, we can finally kill him." I explained.

"Deanna..." Reggie begun, as I heard the front door of the warehouse open.

"Reggie please! This can work!"

"Hey, what's going on?" It was Ethan and Grayson, Reggie and I stopped. In sync we looked to the boys, they were sweaty. They were on a run, they're fine.

"Boys it ok." Reggie wasn't going to tell them, knowing they mean so much to me. I lowered my head.

"D?" Ethan looked to me, as I looked at him. Then Reggie, then back to him. It's ok. I mouthed.

"Go and have a shower." Reggie told them, Ethan went up stairs. While Grayson stayed there, looking at us. But more towards me.

"Grayson, it's ok." I reassured him. "Go." I said gently, as he did. As soon as Grayson left, I looked to Reggie. "They need to know."

"They can know, but not the truth."

"Reggie? How am I supposed to tell them the truth, without telling them to tell the truth?" I questioned, folding my arms and leaning against a hip.

"Deanna-." I then cut my uncle off.

"Reggie, you know how much they mean to me and that I love Grayson. I know you don't accept that yet, but. I need to tell them, ok?" I explained, Reggie went quiet. He shook his head and laughed slightly.

"Just like your mum, fighting for what you want. I admire that about you. You can tell them, but we'll need to leave before breakfast. Because we are taking a visit to some of our old friends." He explained, as I smiled.

"Thanks Reggie, but what friends?"

"Remember when you were 1? The people we stayed with as Pello was close behind us? The remote area." My eyes lit up. I loved that place, I haven't been there in 17 years.

"Ok." I agreed. "Are we taking one car or two cars?" I asked.

"Well we need to pick up my car on the way, it's at the mechanic. As Pellos men stole my engine out of my car and ripped the insides out of it. But luckily I've got the weapons still." He replied, as I nodded. Sighing heavily.

"I've got mine still." Referring to the weapons, then I heard Grayson and Ethan coming down the stairs. I needed to pack. "I'll go and pack quickly." I explained, as Reggie nodded.

~~~

I went to my car and chucked my bag into the bag, closing the car door. A sad, confused voice ached my heart. "You leaving?" Grayson. I looked to him and walked over to him.

"Where's E?" I asked.

"Reggies talking to him, where are you going? What's happening? Everything getting good again." He explained, as I held his hands.

"Pello rang again, he wants me to meet him-." He then cut me off, his hands jumping to cup my face.

"No! I'm coming, you're not going alone!" I smiled shyly.

"Reggies coming with me, Pello doesn't know he's alive. We're going to go to a place that took us in when I was 1. So we're going to ask if they can come fight for us, so this can be all over. So I can be with you safe, then Reggie can find a lady. Cause the reason he doesn't is because of me." I explained, as he lowered his head. I used my pointer finger to lift his head up, feeling his hands rest on my waist.

"I just don't know if I'll see you again, last time you were near Pello. You nearly died." He looked so scared for me.

"Gray I'll be fine, as long as I'm with Reggie. I'll be fine, on the bright side! I'll bring you back a gift." I smiled.

"It better not be something disgusting." He replied, as I shook my head.

"Don't worry, I won't bring you back a body part." I laughed, as he smiled at me. His eyes were full of love, he's different. He placed his hands on my head.

"Just promise you'll come back to me." I nodded, as he smashed his lips against mine.

"Ok love birds!" Reggies voice broke us from our kiss, I hugged Grayson as he whispered on my ear.

"I love you."

"I love you as well." I replied, as when we left the hug. Ethan took me into a hug, Reggie told him.

"Be safe." Ethan warned, as I smiled.

"I will. Take care of Grayson for me, ok?" I replied, as I looked at Ethan.

"Promise."

"Come on Deanna! We are burning day light!" Reggie called, as I left Ethan's arms.

"Bye." I told them, as I went to the drivers seat. Getting in and pulling out of the warehouse, turning the car as I honked them goodbye. Seeing in the review mirror them waving, I sighed heavily.

"You really do like those boys don't ya?" Reggie questioned.

"Yeah." I replied, turning onto the backstreet to head towards the place to pick up Reggies car. So I can follow him.

"You and Grayson?"

"Reggie, not now. Please." He nodded understandingly, I was focused on the main target. Pello.
