Chris had just left to go to Jax's house, leaving Fallon alone in the house. Normally she wouldn't have minded, if it wasn't for the letters that she had been receiving on the daily.

It was beginning to scare the girl more and more. She knew that she should probably tell Chris, especially since some of the letters and photos were about him. But she had told Jax, and he reacted badly, so she was scared to tell anyone else.

Fallon jumped at the sound of the letter box. Dread filled her as she walked towards the door to pick up her letters. She flicked through a few bills until she landed on the letter with her name on in cursive.

She quickly opened the brown envelope and pulled out a few photos and a CD which was followed by a letter. Tears filled her eyes as she saw photos of her and Chris in bed asleep. She looked at the next photo of them on the couch, taken only hours ago. She continued to look through and saw photos of empty rooms in her house.

"Oh my god." The girl whispered to herself, her hands were shaky as she placed the CD into the CD player she had.

The video started with her and Chris in bed asleep, a heavy breathing from behind the camera was the only thing heard. They walked down the stairs and turned on the TV. The video continued to roll, twenty minutes of the person watching TV in her house. Fallon pulled out the letter and read over what it said.

'How much do you think the paparazzi will pay for these photos? I'm hoping a lot. This could all stop if you admit to what you did. You're not safe from me. You can try to hide. You can lock your doors. You can move. But I'll always find a way.'

Fallon's legs buckled, making her fall to the floor. She brought her hand up to cup her mouth to muffle her cries.

She pulled out her phone to text Jax, telling him what had just happened and to make Chris stay over night. It wasn't safe for him here.

"Hey man, don't go yet. Stay the night." Suggested Jax as he placed his hand down on Chris' shoulder. He had been getting the man to stay for hours, begging him to stay for another round whilst all others had gone.

Chris furrowed his brows at the man. He knew that something was wrong, he could just feel it.

"What's going on, Jax?" He questioned turning to face him and crossing his arms. Jax let out a frustrated sigh, running his hand over his face. "Tell me."

"It's Fallon." Jax sat down and rested his head in his hands.

"Does she not want me home? Have I really messed things up this badly?" Chris questioned angrily. He couldn't help but clench his jaw.

"Yeah she doesn't want you home, but not cause you fucked up." Jax nodded, he looked up to Chris, who looked extremely confused. "But because she's scared of what will happen if you do."

Those few words made Chris' heart dropped. He wanted to know what was wrong. He wanted to know if she was safe.

"What do you mean?" Chris questioned anxiously.

"Have you not been seeing the letters, man?" Jax asked curiously. Chris furrowed his brows and that's when Jax knew he messed up. "Oh fuck you haven't, have you?"

"What letters, Jax?" Chris questioned.

Chris burst through the door of the girls home and saw her crying on the floor, watching the CD on repeat. Fallon jumped up and instantly ran into Chris' arms. She needed his comfort right now. She was terrified.

"Why didn't you tell me?" He questioned, cupping the back of her head and holding her close to his chest.

"I was scared you would be mad at me." She sniffled, her grip on his shirt was so tight that her knuckles had turned white.

"We're not staying here tonight. We're staying in a hotel and then the first thing tomorrow we're going to LA. You can stay with me." Chris explained.

"I can't." She shook her head. "I can't afford that."

Chris looked down at the girl, he tucked a piece of hair behind her ear and placed a kiss on her forehead.

"Baby, you're coming home with me. So let's go and pack our bags because we're not staying here another night." He repeated.

Fallon didn't want to fight, so instead she just nodded and linked their hands together. Every time she took a step around the house, she was terrified that someone would be around the corner watching them. She hated the feeling.

Chris hadn't ever told the girl because he thought he was been stupid, but he always felt as if he was being watched by someone whenever he wasn't beside the girl.

And now he knew why he got that feeling.
