Aubrey POV

I was currently at my way back to the gallery trying to figure out where to pack everything up for my new gallery. I had an old basement underneath the house and it had a back entrance with a garage so it might be clever to transport everything there so that I can place them better into the car cause some canvases are heavy.

My classes have ended for the next weeks and I explained to them that I'll be changing my place and move somewhere else. Lizzie was currently working and talked to Tyler about the factory I was looking for. He helped me a lot and I met him a couple times to look at the buildings that are for sale.

I didn't know that I had such a huge variety to chose but I'm glad that they are still in good shape which means I don't have to put all my work into rebuilding them.

The doorbell rang and I walked up the basement to look who it was. I glanced through the huge glass windows and it was just the mail guy.

„Mail for Miss Mathews." he replied and handed me some letters with magazines.

„Thanks man. Have a good one." I replied and he walked off as I closed the door again.

I walked back and looked through the mail. Just some bills and rents I need to take care off along with the magazines that I go through from time to time. One letter fell down and I picked it up seeing it has no sender Adress on it which is unusual.
I flipped it around and opened it out of curiosity.

just because you think I'm done with you doesn't mean I am. If I can't have her... nobody can."

I flipped the letter and looked through the window out of paranoia because this can only be one certain person. I sprinted down to the basement where my phone was to call Lizzie immediately.

„Babe hey I was about to call you what's up?" she asked as she picked up the phone.

„Where are you right now?" I asked sounding obviously anxious which she noticed immediately.

„Eh at work in my office I'm having a break why? Babe what wrong?" she asked sounding worried.

„Are you alone? Was a-anything Strange today at work or did-."

„Aubrey what's happening? You sound like you saw a ghost or something? You scare me." She interrupting me not letting me finish.

„I don't what's going on but I'll pick you up from work."

„W-what? Babe I'm with my own care here I can drive to you immediately if you say so. You know I'd drop everything for you. You just gotta say it."
She offered and I shook my head grabbing my keys to got to my car.

„N-no it's n out that. I just need to know your okay. I'll tell you when I'm there give me a couple minutes and I'll be there."

„O-okay I'll cancel my last class then. You make me worry are you sure everything is okay?" she asked and I gulped looking down at the letter that I placed down at my basement table.

„I'll tell you when I'm there." I replied and hung up driving off like a maniac.

I swear to god if he gets close to her I'll end him completely. I don't care if I'll end up in prison this time because this has gone to far. Threatening letters? What does he think he's doing?
I'm done playing games.

After a short drive I arrived at Lizzie's college getting outbid the car immediately trying to waste no time.

Before I could even walk in and go to her office she walked the stairs down looking at me in worry.
I pulled her in for a kiss and hugged her right after.
