N- Don't do this now.

AU- I just came to tell you two to be sure to keep the decorations up, I will be re marrying, not to someone as useless at Andre...

N- Sean.

G- Why are you coming here?

AU- Just wanted to know that you new wife won't be alive much longer.

The lights switched back on and Audre was gone, leaving Sean in her place, he brushed his fingers along her jaw line. Cautiously pulling away when she frowned, and reached for his hand.

S- Haha, I don't think so heartless. You've always had a flair for drama.

She kicked his neck but he blocked it, then she ran at him with a wooden spoon that was on a table behind her. She hit him with it several times, before she hit him square in the jaw, he fell backwards, in pain, but smiling viciously.

S- No more games, Heartless.

He jumped up, fully recovered and knocked the spoon from her hands, something hit him in his back, and he was knocked out, standing in his place, was Hawkmoth.

H- He was annoying.

N- It's unfortunate really.

They looked at his limp body, and Hawkmoth transformed back, kneeling in front of him as he breathed heavily.

N- There are cuts on his wrist, they must be from barbed wire.

She compared scratches on her wrists to his, and nodded to herself.

G- How did you get those?

N- My parents were strict as a kid, they've changed.

They lifted him to one of the bedrooms in there and locked the door, calling the police to come and get him. Quickly, they took down most of the decorations before they could get there, and woke him up, bringing him back to jail, apparently, he'd been so aggressive, that this time they argued about keeping the cuffs on him.

N- I think... you coming into my life has been the soul of so many things that I have gotten to experience.

G- I'm glad I could give you so many opportunities.

They waited until the police were gone until they packed everything in the limo, Nathalie had let the gorilla drive home, willing to drive herself. They were finished by 7 am, and Gabriel had fallen asleep, she didn't want to wake him up, so she eventually just carried him out. He woke up in the car, when she'd turned the corner to the mansion.

G- Did I imagine what just happened?

N- No, it all did.

G- So... Audre will get divorced?

N- Sean will leave her just as quickly as ever, she will eventually regret her.. decision.

G- I feel like your leaving something out of the story.

N- I'll explain once we get inside.

They got home and the gorilla was already there, he helped them bring everything I side and left to get gas and repairs, Nathalie went to her desk, but Gabriel pulled her down on the couch.

G- Your going to explain.

He held her in a bear hug, she struggled to get away, but gave in and rested on his shoulder.

N- Alright, this happened back in Quebec, before I moved to Paris to get away. Like I told you before, he'd drugged me to get me high, but there's something else. I didn't fully get high, I only pretended so that he would stop, there had been several needles in my arm, and I avoided some of them, but not all. He'd known though, I'm not a vary convincing actress. So he forced me to drink until I'd passed out, and I woke up while he'd been undressing me, luckily I'd never fully been naked, which is good. But I don't think he gave up there, he made more attempts to drug me, and so I moved to Paris, at 16. Luckily there was a house I stayed in, abandoned, but it was still better than the streets. Actually, if I'd never gotten this job, I'd probably still be there.

G- Why don't you tell me these things.

N- I'm your assistant.

G- Your my wife.

N- I like how that sounds.

She rolled over so she was facing him, and rested her head against his chest.

N- Do you need another power nap, sir?

G- Honestly, drop the sir thing.

N- I still work for you, remember?

G- Yes, and I'm your boss, so I tell you what to do.

He picked her up and carried her to their bedroom, she got down and lay beside him on the bed, it was her turn to fall asleep last, she held him in her arms and fell asleep sitting. He was right, he was still her boss, and she'd keep her job, even though it was a little ironic. She smiled to her self and closed her eyes.



L- Look at them!

Loren whispered, looking through the door with the Agrestes, they smiled and nodded in agreement, closing the door gently. They went downstairs, and the doorbell rang. Loren knew about the intercom, so she pressed it.

L- Hello?

LI- Lola Rossi, I would like to speak with Mr. Agreste.

She opened a notebook.

L- Do you have an appointment? Because he's very busy.

LI- Oh, I'm sure he will make an exception for me, I've spoken with him before.

L- I'm sorry, I can't let you in.

LI- Mo problem, I'm sure your very busy, I'm so sorry to bother you. Just tell me whenever he's done.

L- Of course.

She took her finger off the intercom and the camera was back into the wall, she watched as Lila left the mansion's entrance. She knew there was something wrong about that girl, and so she ignored that and wrote it down, then went to have a coffee with the parents.
