Hi friends! sorry for the late post! I had some family stuff happen today and just needed to sort all that out first, don't worry everything is good now! little bit of a shorter chapter but hope you enjoy!

5th July, Rhode Island

"Okay and you'll call me after yes?" Cara asked Freya who was currently sat on the window bench looking out as Cara packed her bags ready to leave.

"Mhm" She hummed averting her gaze from the ocean to acknowledge her friend.

Cara easily noticed the distant look on her friends face "Hey" She said softly walking up to the blonde. She tucked a strand of hair behind her ear as she spoke. "It's gonna be okay...we've walked through it, security will be here, you're safe in this okay" She repeated the same words she told her the night before.

"I know" Freya nodded and smiled softly up at her friend offering comforting words "its really now" she added straightening up a little.

"It is" Cara confirmed "but I'm so incredibly proud of you".

"Come on, you'll miss your flight" Freya smiled changing the topic of conversation as she stood up "Text me when you land and everything?" She asked as Cara zipped her carry on bag.

"I will" Cara smiled before pulling Freya in for a hug "and I'll see you when you come back yea? However long it takes"

"However long it takes" Freya mumbled into the brits shoulder, before pulling away.

"Cara cars here!" Taylor called up the stairs. Everyone had already left the Rhode Island mansion earlier that morning. It was coming up to 12pm now, Cara was leaving and Luca was meant to be here for 12.30pm.

They walked security through everything last night. Freya would lead him to the kitchen to offer him a drink, there she would break the news. Freya felt the most comfortable in the kitchen. The window looked over the ocean and the large island gave her enough space to guard herself behind. Security had been busy setting up various cameras and microphones around the kitchen.One in the glass cupboard hiding behind some old wine Taylor had on display. Another in the fruit bowl, one behind an opened cook book, displayed on a stand. They had angles from each side of the kitchen with microphones taped under the island and Freya would wear one clipped to her bra. They came up with two different codes, which if Freya used security would intervene right away. One was the word Violet, Freya's grandmothers name, her safe haven. The other would be if she scratched her neck.

Taylor was trying to keep a brave face for Freya but she was worried about her. Worried about how Luca would respond, she had only ever heard bad things. She just wanted this whole situation to come and go now, waiting around wasn't her thing. For Freya's sake though she acted like everything was fine. Freya was probably worried and nervous enough, they didn't both have to be. At least not on the outside.

"You got everything?" Taylor asked as Cara came down the stairs with Freya following behind.

"Yeah, thanks for this weekend T, was the best time" She thanked the singer as she gave her a hug "I'm however not gonna thank you for stealing my best friend" She teased.

"Hey it's not my fault she's amazing blame her" Taylor chuckled as she stepped back.

"Miss Delevigne" Tom one of Taylors drivers stepped in to take Caras bag.

"Alrighty I'll see you soon yea?" Cara smiled one last time at both blondes.

With one more hug to each of them, she followed tom out the door and into the car. Freya watched through the window as the car grew smaller and smaller, before finally turning the corner behind the hedges that surrounded the mansion. The same hedges Freya was in awe of when she arrived.
