Florence POV:

Me and Sam were walking in the park, holding hands, shoulders bumping together. I looked over at her, the sun outlining her features. Sam has been stressed out with work, making sure Tracy was ok and helping her mom look for a place to live

That had just recently been dumped on her plate, after Sam and Maggie had that stern talk a week ago, Maggie concluded that she wanted to have her own place she couldn't do that on her own. Yes, I adore her, she is really sweet and everything but lately she's been putting everything on Sam. It doesn't sit well with me

"There's a bench over there" Sam pointed somewhere, I didn't really look so I just followed her

We took a walk in the park to clear our minds and have some time to ourselves. There weren't many people here which was good. We reached the bench and sat down, Sam laid her head on my shoulder

"Mom will be out of your house by next week. We found a house not far from her work, all that's left to do is to pack up whatever's hers." Sam breaking the silence, I started to play with her ring. Sam sighed

"Tracy also thinks it's best for her to move in with mom, which means I have my house back" I froze, I could hear it in her voice that she didn't want this. I didn't want it either, people say that living and working with your partner would be hard and it wouldn't work out, but it brought us closer. 

"So you'll go back to your house?" She lifted her head off my shoulder and looked at me

"I guess I'll have to, I need to clean up and everything" she looked at the ground, playing with the small rocks lying there with her shoe

"I mean you don't really have to, why don't you.." I paused. What if it's too quick? What if she doesn't even want to live with me?

"Why don't I what?" Her head slowly moved from the ground and towards me

"What if you moved in with me? You could put your house up for rent or whatever so you could make some extra money" I looked at her, she didn't answer. She just stayed silent

"If you don't want to that's completely fine, I don't want to move too fast or force you to do something you don't want to do. You can go back to your house. You what, forget I said anyth-" I stopped as I felt a pair of lips on mine, I melted into the kiss. She put her hand on my cheek, her thumb ran over the bone. I kissed her back and put my hand on her side. She pulled away and smiled

"I would love to. I'll put the house on the market as a holiday home" I smiled wide and nodded my head

As Sam was looking at me I noticed her eyes drift and her face change. Anger and worry glossed over her green eyes. I went to turn my head but she dropped me putting her hand on my face

"Don't look over ok?" I nodded my head and smiled, Sam looked at me with a fake smile. Her eyes were still the same

"Put your hand on my arm and laugh" she glanced behind me. I did what she asked. I didn't know what was happening.

"There's someone behind us, they've been watching us for some time. I thought it was ok at first but they just keep staring at us" Sam said, her eyes were looking more worried by the second. But she kept the smile on her face. I nodded my head worried a little bit

"Hey, it's ok" she put her hand on my cheek and rubbed it softly, she had a real smile on her face now even though her eyes radiated worry

"We're going to get up off the bench and start walking ok?" Sam rubbed my arm with her hand, I nodded and smiled

"Everything will be ok don't you worry your pretty little head" she smiled and stood up and stretched her hand out for me to take. I took her hand and stood up. As we started walking I leaned my head on her shoulder, Sam took her phone out of her back pocket

"What are you doing?" I whispered looking up at her slightly

"Taking a picture. Smile!" She took a picture of us, she took a close look at the photo and showed it to me

"Aw look at us!" She showed me the picture. I gasped

"Zach," I said under my breath

"No darling, Sam my name is Sam" she giggled, but then stopped right away

"Holy sh-" I cut her off

"We need to leave right now Samantha," I said seriously and started to speed up

"Hey hey hey, slow down. He can't know that we know. The car isn't that far from here, just take a deep breath ok?" She squeezed my hand and I nodded, Sam picked up a little bit but not enough for him to notice

"How did he even find us?" She was thinking out loud

"It's who he is. That's how he gets when something doesn't go the way he wants. He'll find the person responsible and watch their every movement" I looked up at her

"It's really creepy and unsettling, to say the least. I don't know how long he's been watching me, or the both of us but it's time he gets put behind bars" I finished. I looked up and saw our car in the distance, there was also some paparazzi starting to come near us u heard running and looked behind me. Zach had run off not wanting the paparazzi to find him there. I let out a breath I squeezed Sam's hand, put on my sunglasses, and pulled my hat down, and looked up at Sam smiling

We made it inside the car, I kept my head down while Sam got me in the car. She drove off and started our journey home. I was looking out the window when suddenly my phone started ringing. I looked at Sam that answered it

"Hello?"
"Hi honey"
"Oh hey, mom, what's up?"
"The family heard you've got yourself a girlfriend"
"Yes that's true"
"We'd like to meet her if that's ok"
"I-yeah I mean sure that's fine"
"Oh, that's wonderful! We'll have dinner Friday night! See you then, bye-bye!"

With that, she hung up, I looked at me phone confused

"What's wrong?" Sam asked taking her eyes off the road to look at me

"Looks like you're meeting my family Friday" I smiled weakly at her

This was going to be wonderful
