A few days later and we were flying to Boston, the boys were so excited they had never been on a plane before and couldn't wait to see what it was like. There little faces were full of amazement and wonder as they stared up at the huge planes.

I had left my house under investigation, the police has said that nothing was missing apart from a photo of me and the kids taken on there birthday. There were no finger prints or anything to indicate who had done this. I told them about my EX and my mother and they said they would look into and keep me updated as soon as they could. With the help of Chris I was able to get a restraining order against then both. It made me feel a little safer knowing if they came near me or the kids the would arrested.

As the plane took off, I was hanging on to the seat for dear life, I wasn't afraid of flying per say I just didn't like taking off or landing.  The boys were oblivious as they watched a movie on there tablet. Chris grabbed my hand and started to stroke my knuckles with his fingers, it calmed me instantly and I gave him a smile to say thank you.

I must have fallen asleep, because Chris was waking me to tell me we had arrived. Both of the boys were flat out next to me, so I picked Jensen up and Chris carried Jake.
Him and Jake had a special bond, Jake loved him and loved when Chris came over to play. Jensen loved Chris too but was always much more of a mummy's boy.

When we got to Chris home, it was beautiful. There was a secure wall all around and there was a gate with a code to get in. As soon as we were inside, I felt safer then I had in months.

The boys were still asleep so Chris showed me the room they would be sleeping in, it had been decorated out in Disney for his nephew, I placed the boys in the double bed, kissed them on the head and walked back into the kitchen.

Chris was making a drink and I hugged him from
Behind, he turned around quickly and hugged me back.

"What was that for?"
"A thank you, thank you for making me come here, I didn't realise how much I needed to get out of LA. Breathing in this air and being behind that wall out there, I feel safer then I have in months, so seriously Chris thank you" I got to my tip toes and lightly kissed his cheek, I could see him blush ever so slightly and it made me smile.

I told him I was going to go unpack and shower, he showed me where everything was and left me to it. When I got under the hot water, I instantly relaxed. My aching bones were finally relaxing and it felt good, I washed my hair and stayed under the heat for a while longer, I eventually got out and dried myself off, finding a pair of shorts and a T-shirt from my suitcase to throw on, I brushed out my hair and threw it up into a messy bun and went to check on the boys, they were still flat out, so I made my way to the kitchen and saw Chris chopping vegetables.

"Hey, can I help?"
"Hey, yeah of course, if you wanna start chopping the carrots?"
"Of course, what you making?"
"A Evans family special, you'll have to wait and see"
"An actor, a singer, a dancer and a cook, is there anything you can't do?"
"Hmmmmm no I'm just that brilliant" he gave me award winning smile and I giggled. He was always so charming
"That's my favourite sound you know"
"What is?"
"Your laugh"
I could feel myself blushing, I had to admit these past few months with Chris were amazing, I felt like I had got to know him like never before, he made me feel safe and cared for. He was amazing with my kids and he was so gentle towards me.
I knew it was wrong but I couldn't help but think maybe, he was the perfect guy for me. A guy I trusted 100% with everything.
But I couldn't let that happen, I worked for him. It was just a crush and I knew it would pass....well I hoped it would pass.

"Whatever Evans, get to chopping"
He laughed and carried on chopping his veg, stealing glances every now and then at each other, we would just smile and carry on.

What was happening? My life was upside side and yet I felt happier in this moment then I had for a long time.
