Who's the real you?

Chapter Twelve

December 1994

Time had flown by; Hannah was now visibly edging towards her seven month in her pregnancy.

Alytain had stopped travelling around, he stopped showing himself publicly as he waited by Hannah's side.

Against Bill's wishes, Alytain had convinced Hannah to move into his home. She was even sharing the same bed as Alytain, she had even helped put together a room for their unborn child.

Alytain hadn't stepped up and been by Hannah's side with each appointment, she was just thankful that her father still agreed to stay by her side even if she was starting to change who she was, losing her true self to a man who had given a child.

Even at seventeen, Hannah felt more grown up. She had almost taken full control of Alytain's career, she had knowingly forced out the trouble of Alytain's life, kept him away from the drugs that his manager actively pushed onto his client, kept Alytain away from groupies who actively broke into Alytain's home on a near daily basis.

Hannah wanted to get rid of Avros, she hated him, and he hated her. The two of them couldn't even share the same opinion without it turning it into an agreement.

Alytain sat down next to Hannah, he looked down at the legal document in front of her.

Hannah looked up at Alytain's lawyer, she wasn't sure what to do. She never actually asked for this, it had unknowingly happened through the trust of Alytain.

"Belle, baby. I want you to do this. This is all me."

Hannah shifted her attention to Alytain "But, what happens if we break up. This is...This.."

Alytain placed his hand over Hannah's hand "Oliver will take care of it. All of it, I want you to be my manager."

Hannah could see it in Alytain's eyes, he had noticed the changes she had made in his life since she had entered it. She had fired all his staff; she had hired new security including a new security system.

"Ms Dejour, this is what my client wants. He and I have discussed it at length."

Hannah shifted her attention to Oliver as he sat in his suit across from them, he was the lawyer for Alytain. Her eyes dropped down on the legal document in front of her.

"I trust you." Alytain stated with genuine trust in his tone.

Hannah took a deep breath, she slowly exhaled. She picked up the pen and signed Belle Dejour .

"Good, now that's sorted." Oliver reached for the document "I'll have it processed right away."

Alytain stood up from his seat, he reached his hand out to Hannah.

Hannah looked up at Alytain "Uh, can you give me a moment. I want to talk to Oliver for a moment."

Alytain looked at Oliver than shifted his gaze back to Hannah.

"I'll meet you at the car."

Alytain nodded for a second "Thanks Ol." He spoke to his lawyer before leaving the office.

Hannah watched as the door closed, she shifted her attention to Oliver "Don't worry I won't ask for you to be fired. Alytain trusts you too much and I'm not going to do that to him."

"But?"

Hannah sighed as she felt the weight of the world against her shoulders "I have one massive secret from Alytain, I would like to keep it hidden from him as much as physically possible."

Oliver was curious, what had Alytain gotten himself into?

"I don't know why I did it nor why I haven't told him."

Oliver began to think that Hannah was about go him she was using his client.

"I'm not legally called Belle Dejour, that's a name Alytain seems to have given me. The day he and I meet, he just called me Belle and I just never corrected him. I, of course needed to give Belle a last name."

"So, who are you?"

"Hannah Rose Winchester."

Oliver was intrigued.

"I know that signing Belle on any documents will probably cause an issue, I also know that you have every right to protect Alytain, but I need your help."

Oliver listened as he clasped his hands on top of the legal documents she had signed.

They had spent almost an hour just talking, Hannah revealing her plans to Oliver and Oliver making a promise that he would do everything to assist Hannah/Belle in her ventures with Alytain.

Oliver rose from his seat, he stepped over to the door before opening it.

Hannah rose up to her feet "Promise me, please."

Oliver nodded "of course."

Hannah smiled a little "Thank you, Oliver."

Oliver and Hannah walked side by side silently down the hall of the building, Alytain jumped up to his feet.

Hannah smiled a little at Alytain.

"I couldn't wait in the car; you know me Belle."

Hannah looked at Oliver "Thank you again, Oliver." She smiled up at him.

"Anytime, Ms Dejour. Alytain." Oliver shifted his attention to his client "You have a good woman by your side, don't let her go." It was a genuine statement.

"Oh, I won't."
