Isabella 'Bella' Marie Rickman: I'm Still Standing

Part 7

Alan was getting frantic about his daughter's whereabouts. He started asking people if they had seen her. None of them had. Alan was needed back in the Great Hall. Everyone was called back from their break.

"Has anyone seen Tom?" Chris his brother came onto the set.

"He went for lunch with everyone else."

"I was in the canteen waiting for him and he never showed for lunch. I thought that you had kept him behind for a scene." Chris mentioned.

"Funny you should say that my daughter is here somewhere, but we don't know where she is. So, it could be a possibility that Tom is with my daughter." Alan mentioned.

"So where would they both go?"

Alan just went with his instinct and then headed down to the set where the Slytherin common room was. Chris followed him along with a few other people.

Chris Columbus put the filming on hold until both Tom and Isabella were found.

There laid on one of the couches was Tom and Isabella wrapped up in Tom's Slytherin robe.

Alan slowly walked towards the sleeping pair. He shook Tom on the shoulder. Tom jerked awake to see Bella's dad, his brother and the Director standing around him.

"Tom, is Bella, ok?" Alan asked quietly.

Tom's eyes flooded with tears as he shook his head with the answer no.

"She doesn't want to be here."

Alan reached down and picked up his daughter in his arms and then took her back to his trailer. Bella didn't wake up at all whilst Alan was carrying her. Tom followed behind him with his brother Chris who was hugging him as they walked.

Michael and Sophie were at Alan's trailer waiting to see if Bella turned up.

The trailer door opened, and Alan walked in and put Bella down on the couch gently. Tom and Chris stood in the doorway watching Bella being covered.

"She's not well at all. What was she like on the way over?" Alan asked of his driver.

"She was quiet and just watched the scenery from the window. I tried to talk to her, but she didn't respond to me even in sign language. Bella was just silent." Sophie mentioned.

"She spoke to me when I found her. She was in one of the study rooms that we both shared last year. She told me that 'She couldn't take anymore, and she doesn't want to be here.' May I stay with her until she wakes up?" Tom told them all.

"Tom, you're needed on set and so am I. We need to get going. The sooner that we get today's filming done, we can spend more time with her." Alan mentioned.

Tom nodded and then headed out of the trailer and sat on the steps.

Alan settled Bella in and covered her up. He leaned over and kissed Bella' forehead and then left the trailer to see Tom sat on the steps.

"Come on Tom, let's get today over and done with. You can come back with us to my home. I will send you back with Michael later to your home. I presume that this will be ok with your brother?" Alan looked up to see Chris still standing there.

"Yes, it should be fine." Chris told him.

"Then its settled. Let's get moving then."
