Anastasia POV

Tuesday Mid-Afternoon.

Florence and I were both just in t-shirts and cuddled up in bed, neither of us really wanting to get out of bed. I heard my phone ding and Florence lifted her head from my chest.

"Sorry princess", I apologize as I reach for it. I lay back down just before she puts her head back on my chest. I look and see that it's Scarlett calling.

"Hey Scar, what's up?", I answer and it's quiet.

"Scarlett?", I say kind of worried.

"Hey uh", Scarlett says and I can hear her trying not to show that she's angry, but I can tell by the tone.

"What happened?", I ask and I hear her sigh sadly.

"There's a slight problem", she says and Florence looks at me.

"What's going on?", Florence asks and I shrug, putting the call on speaker.

"And what would that be Scarlett?", I ask questioning what the slight problem could be.

"Uh well she was spotted at an airport", Scar says and I kind of freeze.

"What happened?", Florence asks and I am holding back myself from wanting to lose my mind.

I have that feeling that they are coming back to try to talk with Aurora or try to spend time with her.

"Christine and Devon are apparently on a flight, no one knows where. But I have a feeling they are coming to Los Angeles", Scarlett says and I called it, they probably only are coming for Aurora and so that they can try to swindle themselves back into her life.

Christine and I may have had a complicated relationship, but I have always tried to remain civil with her.

I know that she had another kid with Devon, their son is adorable but I was angry for a while that she "abandoned" Aurora just to have another child.

Christine really had no say in Aurora's life since I won full custody.

It was easy to win custody since she ran off though and because she claimed Aurora was adopted.

Aurora always thought that Christine is her biological mum, but she refuses to call her mum since she left her to have another kid.

"I think Christine and Devon are coming to Los Angeles", Scarlett says and I broke.

I fucking broke, I started crying due to the build up of anger and pulled Florence into a tight hug.

"I'm sorry Anastasia, I hope she isn't but I have that feeling she is", Scarlett says and I can't speak, Scarlett will hear the anger in my voice and I don't want that. I look at Florence and she can see the anger in my eyes.

"Hey Scar, I need to let you go", Florence says quickly before hanging up and cuddling up into my lap.

Florence hugs me tightly and just lets me cry into her shoulder.

"Baby, I'm here for you. I won't let her try to do anything or take Aurora", Florence says and I look at her.

"I don't know how to tell Aurora that she might be back", I tell Florence and she rubs up my back.

"We will tell Aurora", she says looking at me and wiping my tears from my face that I apparently shed, probably from talking about the truth of Aurora.

Not many people actually know what happened, even Scar, even Sebastian. No one but Florence and myself, well minus Aurora.

"I don't know how she'll take it yet. She'll either be angry or be completely okay with it and want to see Christine.", I tell Florence and she smiles weakly.
