Elvis was on a video call when I walk into the room. I blink in surprise "Hi." I glance at him and he smile's at me turning around.

"It was Jame's your safe." He say's. "Thank's." Elvis turn's of the screen and it goes black. "Where is he?" I ask him. "He's gone to get more food supplies organised for later."

"What is it?" I shake my head and smile. "Nothing." I feel the ground tremble again clinging onto Elvis suddenly. "Want to stay here tonight?"

He ask's me. "We'll get caught!" I stare at him his brown eye's settling on me. "Your with me." He grin's. "Of course." I say with a grin.

That night wasn't the greatest it was loud but feeling safe with Elvis was the most safe I had been since ever really. I snuggle into his arm's. He wrap's me up close to him.

I know we go back home shortly for a break. We've been locked up here in camp since everything happened. It's been hard but I'm not dying these day's. Elvis has his eye's closed.

It's the next morning and I walk out of the tent it's early morning so it's still dark. I search around my bag getting my cosmetic kit while Elvis is still fast asleep. I go to the bathroom where I meet Georgie inside. "Hi." She say's making me jump in the dark.

"Hi how are you?" I ask her. "Yeah not to bad." She replies. "Where were you sleeping last night?" I freeze. "I..." I glance around.

"I was with Elvis." I tell Georgie and she grin's. "I guessed myself. Don't worry I won't tell anyone." I smile at her. "Thank's."

"Were back home tomorrow." I tell her. "Oh yeah. I'm going back to London." She say's. "Was it really that scary Georgie?" I ask her.

"What scary?" She replies. "The being kidnapped." "Oh yeah a little a few scar's but nothing bad." I nod.

"Where is home for you?" She ask's. "Just out of London." I say to her. "Oh right Elvis going with you?" She ask's and I nod after towel drying my face. "Yeah he's coming back with me."

I nod. "See you at breakfast." She say's. I nod as she finishes and leaves brushing back her dark brown hair.

She seemed quieter than usual but then again she has just been through a kidnap and rescue it can't be easy.

Captain Jame's went down a helicopter to save her. I shake my head. Before grabbing my thing's after a shower and heading back to the tent.

Elvis is awake and is shirtless when I walk inside. "Elvis." I say turning around quickly. "Sorry." He replies throwing on a black army shirt. He's in his green trousers and belt. He smile at him.

"It's ok." I blush. He nod's as I walk past. "Leaving before midday." He say's. I nod. We collect our bag's and head to the food court to say goodbye like mostly everyone else is doing. The one's who have to stay do.

It's not until late that evening when were in the airport when I'm curled up in his arm's again.

I have dream's about the earthquake's going of which make's me jolt now and then. But other than that I fall asleep on Elvis until we have to board the flight back to London.

It's late by the time we get home and are in the car back to the London flat my sister came to pick us up.

Elvis is in the back seat fast asleep I don't blame him. I slept on him for most of the flight back to here. It was the only thing stopping my night terrors.

Marie glances at me as we drive our way back to the flat. "What is it?" "He saved you?" "How do you know?" I snap quietly. "One of your room mates Georgie." "How did you meet her?" I ask. "Finger's." She say's finally.

I glance back at Elvis who has his head propped up against the glass. "Yeah Elvis saved me Marie." I say. "Ok."

Marie say's turning into our driveway of the flat and the light's come on Elvis groans. "Sorry." Marie say's turning off the light. "It's fine." Elvis blinks and I see his brown eyes staring back at me.

I smile before hoping out of the car. When upstairs in the bathroom Elvis knocks on my door. "Makeup." He say's handing it to me.

"Remover." I say with a grin. "Yeah that." He yawns. "Marie know's Elvis," I say his arm's wrap around me. "I heard." He kisses my neck.

I sit by the edge of the bed putting my phone charger in. Elvis switches on the light before hopping in next to me. I glance at him.

"Mum better not walk in tomorrow." I say to him. "I'm not that scary am I?" "To her yes. To me no." I say honestly.

Marie walk's in making me jump through my skin. "Is Elvis in there?" "Well I didn't send him downstairs did I?" I stare at Marie. "He stayed in here last night?"

She question's and I give her a blank look in return. "Yes Marie." "Claire can, you pass me, oh hi Marie." Elvis stops at the door. "Elvis." She throw's him his shirt. He catches it.

"Breakfast in ten." She gives me a stern look. "Bad timing?" Elvis say's and I raise an eyebrow at him. "You think so?" I stand up and he leans a hand against the door.

I walk downstairs as Marie puts out plates. "Morning." I say and Elvis come's to sit down next to me.

"Plan's for later." Mum ask's sitting down next to Marie. "Visit Manchester University." I grin at Elvis who swallows his food almost whole. "A scenic tour after what happened? Really?" "Yeah." I say with a grin.

"Ok we'll go into Manchester." He say's. Mum gives me an odd glance from across the table seeing me glance at Elvis. "Anyone coming later?" I ask her. "Your Aunt." I shudder. "What time?" "Don't know?" "Ok."

I sit with Elvis on the train into Manchester. I'm scrolling through Instagram and post a photo of us together. I see a few reactions coming through before the train arrives at the stop.

I hear banging when I step out. I look around but everything's normal. Elvis glances back at me. "Everything ok." I shake my head. "I feel like I'm being watched." I say looking around.

He takes my hand. "It's ok I'm here." He say's and I nod as we walk to the University. I keep up with Elvis as I walk along the path passing current students.
