- 12 -

there was a loud knock at the door at around 7am and freya heaved herself out of bed in only her thin pyjamas wondering who could be at the door.

lily groaned but stayed in the bed as freya opened the door to joost also in his pyjamas "you came all the way over here in...pyjamas?" she laughed but joost was not in the mood.

"uhh whats up?" freya rubbed at her eyes the hallway light shone down into her face.

"look" joost sighed handing her his laptop and she motioned for him to come in before she closed the door.

opening the laptop to a screen of emails, joost pointed to the top one labelled "From: EBU to: MR KLEIN".

"what?" freya looked up at him.

"read it"

freya clicked the email and scanned it

" Dear mr klein we would like to inform u that an incident involving you and two other women is being investigated at this present time.

The woman described that you and another woman were violating her personal boundaries and that you had made a threatening movement towards her.

in our policy we do not allow this behaviour and will update with you with our conclusions.

kind regards,
the EBU "

"bullshit" freya called out slamming the laptop shut reacting completely different than joost had imagined

"she was violating our fucking "boundaries" by recording with no consent" freya mocked waving her hands in the air with rage.

joost nodded in concern seeping through although he attempted to hide it.

" no joost we are heading there today and demanding answers and they need to value your side of the story too" she stomped making lily turn uncomfortably in her bed due to the shakes of the room.

"freya" joost murmured putting a hand on her arm "its ok" he sighed sitting down on the bed his hands covering his face in disbelief.

"sorry" she sat him up to wrap her arms around him into a hug of reassurance. "don't worry we will figure this out" she rubbed circles on joosts back and he smiled.

he managed a nod before heading to the door " where are you going" freya followed him.

"a walk" he looked too his feet "well if your going to embarrass yourself walking around in your pjs, i cant let u go alone" freya grabbed him.

"ill be back lily" freya called out, making the decision for joost and swung open the door.

after going down a few empty streets they were met by a wide spread field of greenery with a stunning view of the sunrise "woah" freya laughed.

"Swedens a beautiful country" joost smiled weakly at her before sitting on a small hill.

she sat down to join him "why me" freya sighed

joost turned to her in confusion and his glasses lowered at the wrinkles in his forehead "what... do u mean?" he tilted his head to the side.

"why did we click so fast, why did u choose a nobody to be friends with or get on stage with you at your dream show, whats that "something about me" " freya looked into his blue eyes.

joost remembered what he had said "we have a connection freya, my mum would've loved u" he paused to shake his head and laugh.

his words played with Freya's heartstrings and pleaded for him to go on.

"when someone is so special u have to make the most of your time with them, we don't have a long enough life to live we get older every day. that "something" is the way you set a spark in my chest, and that feeling makes u want to flourish it fast which is what i did with you"

she leaned her head on his shoulder in pieces at what joost had described what she did to him.

"you deserve the world joost klein" freya teared up realising how artistic joost really was and not just in music , but in expressing his words so delicately and perfect that the whole perspective of something could be changed to see the view of his world.

"but i was a nobody"

"maybe u were" he emphasised

" but when i found u, u were everybody to me. that counts right ? everyone starts as a nobody, its the right people who can change that." he reassured although he was going through a tough time himself

"all these years if followed you and your music ive thought u were the most beautiful man to walk the earth, and i was taken aback that you would ever consider chancing me" freya laughed softly ducking her head under his arm feeling a wash of affection for him.

"a relationship doesn't have to take long if its the right one"
