It's a weird thing. Love. That one feeling could lead to so many others. Can cause so much. In this instance it had led to many other feelings. Feelings and sides that you knew you had but had never shown.

"I love you Lil"Fp smiled as he dropped his little girl off to school. He'd been trying to be a better dad recently, taking the girls out more and just overly being better for them, and himself.

The love he had for family didn't cause how he felt. It was the love he had for Alice. He didn't know it yet but he is madly in love with her. All of these feelings are just the signs, his way of showing his love.

8:26 his watch read. He smiled down gently as her car pulled up "4 minutes early go home" he joked. She rolled her eyes gently. Turning off her engine she stepped out of her car. His eyes instantly glued to her body. He didn't know how he was meant to control himself around her when she looked that hot.

Her outfit was simple but clearly attracting him. She wore a pair of ripped denim shorts which came to the top of her thighs just a little below, matched with a daisy print crop top with her a small v neck leaving slight cleavage.

"You look stunning as always Als" he smirked. With a gentle smile she opened the back door of her car for hot dog to get in. Bruno and Skylar were in a rather large crate and Alice had a medium one for hot dog.

"Safety first" she spoke as she helped hot dog into her crate. She grabbed a brand new bone , toy and blanket to comfort the dog who already had a memory foam dog Bed fitted into the crate.

She stroked his head and locked the cage along with the door before rushing along to the other side checking on Bruno and Sky. Who were both fine.

"You ready Jones"she patted his leg not knowing how much it drove him insane.

He sat there watching her. Taking in every detail, her  freckles, the mole on her collar bone, the scar at the top of her head. He was mesmerised by her.

He didn't know what it was about her making him this way. Something lured him in. Maybe it was a mixture of her kindness, beauty and innocence. Compared to him she was an angel and maybe that's what he wanted. A girl who was innocent and sweet. Someone he could love. Love was a hard thing for fp to admit. But around her he was easier. Just something about her made a difference. Made him feel comfortable and welcomed.

Before her he had only mixed with evil and darkness, the only light in his life had been his children. He had been a volcano awaiting eruption before her, a cluster of anger and hatred ready to explode into balls of nasty fire and bitterness.

But the tenderness of her heart and her genuine nature calmed him. Being in her presence kept him sane. When he was with her he relaxed more. Except the feeling of jealousy and anger whenever someone looking at her. He hated the fact other people fancied her.

He couldn't help but smile as she sang along to the radio, her hair blowing in the warm blow of the wind. It was January it was rare for this weather but it just made the day better.

"Alice, I'm thankful you know, that you let me back into your life and are giving me chances like this"he watched the corners of her lips lifted forming a smile.

"Life is to short Fp, I couldn't waste any time, on the topic. Mum is worried about Charlotte she's getting worse by the day she's asked if I can go this weekend. You can say no but I was wandering if you and Toni would mind feeding the dogs , I'd pay you for petrol and that" he knew she was sad, her sister was slipping away slowly.

"Of course Al, how long you going for" he asked her gently.

"Only 3 nights I need to be back for work. I just want to say goodbye" she let a tear drop into her lap.

"Don't cry beautiful, I know it's hard but I'll be here for you okay." She nodded as she continued driving.

Confusion muddled on his face when she pulled down an abandoned lane.

"You kidnapping me"he joked

"Noppeee, it used to be a private beach linked to a hotel, the hotel was closed down along time ago and no one could find an entrance but I searched and found one." He couldn't help but chuckle

But when she pulled onto the sand. He'd never seen anything like it before. Crystal blue waters and clean sand, not a plastic bottle in sight.

He watched as she ran across the beach with the dogs, toy in hand teasing them.

It was at that moment he felt it. He felt free. For the first time he felt free. Careless of the world around him. All that he could think of was her.

Blended in with the scenery she looked like a goddess. He stopped for a second. And stood. Watching her.

He knew. He'd always known but this made it more real, this made the feeling ignite .

He knew now she was the one.

He wanted her.

He needed her.

He loved her.

He'd never admitted that before not to himself not to anyone.

She had this spark about her. Something that just made him the happiest he could be.
