The phone call that changed everything

6 Months Later

it had 6 months of hard work, 6 long months of press junkets and interviews and appearances, but finally the movie was being released in a week. There was so much build up for this movie that even I was excited to see the final product.

Just as Chris wasfinishing his last press junket interview, my phone buzzed in myhand, I looked down and it said unknown number. I answered, as itwasn't uncommon of people to call me who I had never spoken to before.

"hello?" "hello?"

I heard heavy breathingdown the phone so I went to hang up, but then I heard the words Inever thought I would again, words I didn't ever want to hear again

"Hello, Baby Girl"

I froze right there onthe spot, I didn't know what to do. I couldn't scream or shout I justdidn't know what to do.

"how did you get thisnumber?"

"I can figure thingsout pretty quickly, just like I figured out your in LA right now"

"how?......."

"you see, you should really look into the backgrounds of the pictures of Mr Evans, I saw you plain as day, right there, smiling. You looked as beautiful as ever."

"no....its been 3years, you cant do this to me anymore. I'm not afraid of you"

"i don't want you to be hunny, I just wanted to let you know, I know where you are and where are kids are and im going to see you all again really soon."
"no....."

"oh yes! I look forward to it, bye for now baby girl"

I didn't know what to do, I dropped to the floor, I had tears rolling down my cheeks and before I knew it I had 2 strong arms around me, I flinched at his touch and pulled away slightly before realising it was Chris.

"woah! Hey its just me, what's wrong?"

I shook my head and just kept repeating "he found us, he found us, he found us"

Chris didn't know what to do so he just held me, once I had calmed down he picked me up and walked me to the car, I hadn't said a word. I didn't know what to say.

He carefully put me in the car and drove to my house, just as he went to get out, my front door opened and out ran my 2 little boys, I jumped out of the car and ran to them and held them so tightly, they shouted at me "mummy, your squashing us"

but I couldn't help it ,I had to hold them tight. I didn't know what was going to happen now. Or how I was going to keep them safe.

Chris came up from behind me and I could tell he was shocked. He looked at me....

"you better come in, I have some explaining to do"

"id say so yeah"

The boys ran off and played with there toys, rose headed home and Chris and I were stood in my kitchen. I still hadn't said anything and I didn't really know where to start, so I just made a coffee and sat down.

After what felt like an eternity, he looked at me and said "so, your a mum?"

I looked back and laughed "yeah I am"

"what's going on Jen? You broke down in that room and now I find out you have children, why didn't I know this? You've been working for me for nearly 3 years?"

"i was scared, I didn't want my kids to be in the limelight. I know im just your PA but sometimes people dig up stuff about your staff and I didn't want my kids to be apart of that"

"okay, I get that but you could have told me"

"i know, I'm sorry I don't really know why I didn't. I find it hard to trust men with my kids and I'm sorry."

"i get that...so what happened?"

"oh god! That's an extremely long story"

"i have nothing planned for the rest of the day"

I looked at him and saw a genuine smile on his face, he really did want to know what my story was and for the first time in a long time, I knew I could trust a man, but not just any man. This man in front of me. But I was scared what if after knowing everything, he didn't want someone like me working for him any longer? I took a deep breathe and I started my long story...he sat there and nodded but never said a word...he just listened.

When I was done, I didn't realise I was crying so much, I hadn't told that story in so long. He closed the distance between us and wrapped me in his huge arms and just held me while I sobbed.

Jensen came into the kitchen and I didn't want him to see me like this, so I quickly turned away and wiped my eyes. Chris bent down to his level and said to him "hey, little man, my names Chris. What's yours?

"I'm Jensen and I'm nearly 4 years old"

"wow! Really! You'll be starting school then soon"

"yep! Me and my twin brother, his name is Jake but he is a little shy around new people"

"right, okay that's not a problem"

"is my mummy okay?"

before I could answer Chris had said to him "she is more then okay, do you know she is one of the strongest women I know. She is like a superhero. She has special powers and everything"

I smiled at his words, and Jensen giggled "that's silly, she doesn't have super hero powers, she is just an amazing mummy"

and that made me cry even more.

"ok, dude! How about you go back to the living room and play with your brother and me and your mummy will sort out some dinner for you, is that okay?"

"can we have pizza mummy, it is Friday?"

"of course we can darling, you go start cleaning up and ill order food"

"thank you mummy, thank you Chris. I love you mummy"

"i l-love you too hunny" I was on the verge of more tears when Chris came behind meand softly put his hand on my lower back.

"why don't you go clean up, ill order food and maybe crack open a beer?"

"that's sound good, thank you"

"of course"

I gave him a quick peck on the cheek as I walked away to straighten my self up and get rid of any evidence of my tears. I never wanted to show my boys that I was weak. I always had to be strong for them and now I had to be stronger then ever.
