Lizzie's pov

It was painful to talk about sending the twins away. I hated the thought of them being so far away, but we need them to be safe and as far away from this when it all goes down. And now we are going to be saying goodbye for a while until this is over. Once the door opened, Alex and Oliver came running in and jumped on either side of the bed hugging Y/N.

"We missed you so much mama." They both said as they cried. I could feel my eyes stinging as I watched it unfold.

"I missed you guys so much." She said as she kissed both of their heads as I watched the tears fall down her face. Ashley stood beside me just admiring the love between the three of them.

"Ash, can I talk to you outside?" I asked her.

"Of course." She said as we both left the room.

"I need to tell you something and you can't tell anyone." I told her quietly as I looked around.

"What is it?" She asked me quietly.

"We have to send the twins away for a while." I whispered as she looked at me with wide eyes.

"Why?" She asked me.

"Because they are in danger and we want them to be as far away from this as much as possible." I whispered. "We already have a plan in motion and they are going today." I told her sternly.

"You can not be ok with this." She said angrily.

"I am ok with this. I am doing this for them." I told her.

I stopped talking when I noticed Robbie and Andy walking up to us.

"Hey, are the kids with Y/N?" He asked quietly as I just nodded.

"Well I will leave you guys to it." Ashley said before she walked away.

"She doesn't seem happy." Robbie observed

"No she isn't. She doesn't like the idea of sending the twins away for their safety." I sighed as we walked back to the room.

I was starting to get really annoyed with Lizzie. She has been avoiding me since two weeks ago and I don't know what is wrong with her. I don't know what I did wrong. So I am currently at home watching my favorite show while having a beer. I groaned when I had to pause it to someone banging on my door.

"Can you please knock louder I don't think I heard you." I said sarcastically. I soon shut up when Lizzie pushed passed me.

"We need to talk?" She said sternly as I closed the door 

"About what exactly, because these past two weeks I have kinda been out of the loop." I said as I followed her inside.

"You, me and us." She said as she sat down.

"What about us?" I asked her as I leaned on the back of the sofa facing her.

"Why is it that you seem to ruin something so good for me. I thought I found the perfect guy to get over you but no matter how hard I tried to. My mind always comes right back to you." She said as she stood up

"What do you mean I ruined things for you?" I asked her confused. "You were the one person who tried to have sex with me when I was engaged and you were with Tom. So how is it my fault." I said slightly aggravated.

"Because it's your fault that you have been on my mind since the moment you bumped into me on your first day at school. The first time I gazed into those beautiful captivating eyes and no one compares to the way you make me feel from just being near you." She raised her voice. "AND I HATE MYSELF FOR NOT EVEN HAVING THE BALLS TO TELL YOU EVEN THOUGH YOU MAY NEVER FEEL THE SAME!"

"SERIOUSLY ELIZABETH." I shouted. "I  have loved you from the moment you were the one person who never saw me for what I am. A freak. You treated me like any other person. I knew that when I heard your voice I couldn't not hear it for one day. Just everything about you drew me in. I have loved you forever and I am sorry that it took me this long to tell you."

She just stared at me with a blank look as her chest was rising and falling rapidly. I let myself calm down before I walked up to her and cupped her face.

"The moment you tried to drunkenly get me into bed with you I knew that there was no escaping this feeling. The way my heart beats just for you." I told her as I moved one of her hands to my chest. "There isn't anyone who holds my heart. It has always been you Elizabeth. Always."

She just looked at me with tears in her eyes before she pressed a passionate kiss to my lips. We both poured all of our emotion into it. When we pulled apart I couldn't help but smirk

"Now that should have been our first kiss." I told her as she just laughed before she kissed me again.

We walked into the room to see the twins talking to Y/N so energetically as she smiled widely at them.

"Hey guys, your mum and I have something that we need to tell you." Y/N said with a sigh as they both looked between us.

"You two are going to stay with Uncle Robbie and Auntie Andy for a while." I told them as they looked at me with sadness in their eyes.

"Why?" Alex asked shakily.

"Because the bad men who had mama are still out there and they will do anything to get to her. That includes hurting you two." I told them sadly.

"And we want to keep you both safe until we manage to catch these bad men." Y/N said as they both looked at her

"But we just got you back mama. We just got you both back." Oliver said with tears streaming down his face.

"I know bud, but this is to protect you. I don't want anything to happen to either of you." She told them. "The two of you and your mum are my everything and I would rather die than have any sort of harm come to you."

They were both crying now as Y/N had tears streaming down her face.

"When all of this is blown over, we will go on a family vacation to where ever you both want. The four of us." She told them as they nodded. "So I am going to need you to go with Uncle Robbie to get dressed. When you leave this hospital keep a hold of their hands and your heads down."

"We will mama." Alex sniffled as he hugged her before he hugged me. Oliver followed suit and  they both went to Andy and Robbie.

"I will protect them with my life Y/N." Robbie told her.

"I know you will or I will kill you." She told him as they hugged before he hugged me. We watched as they left the room before I turned my attention to Y/N. "You should have gone with them." She told me sternly.

"No. My place is by your side." I told her. "And there is nothing and no one that will tell me otherwise."

The twins gone away for safe keeping. I say that like they're an object. Oh well. As always, let me know what you guys think.
