Beau's POV

Jennifer hasn't been seen by any of her family or friends in 4 days now. Police keeps telling me they're trying to do everything they can but I can't just sit back and relax. I took a few days off from work because I can't focus right now. I feel tired. I can't sleep, don't want toe at, don't feel like doing anything except finding Jen. I feel so powerless. Only when someone is missing you start seeing how big this world is... It's already hard to find your girl in the shopping mall.. Let alone in this entire world! If she's abducted she could be anywhere by now!

She could be a prostitute in India right now, she could be someone's slave, she could be held in captivity by some creep or maybe someone needs her organs... Damn, Beau, stop thinking about these scenarios! She's probably fine... They will find her. I will. But what if she's dead already? I'm driving myself crazy with all these horrible thoughts. I can't seem to think positive anymore.. Not even for one minute.

I've posted a "Missing" post on Facebook, Instagram & Twitter and a lot of people do share it, but nobody saw her so far. This is pointless... I never should have left to Lina & Maya. I never should have left Jennifer alone. I could have protected her when she needed protection! Oh God, I'm the worst boyfriend, the worst husband any woman could imagine.

Jen's POV

I wake up. I look around and don't know where I am. I don't remember anything.. Was I drunk last night? Did I pick up Beau from the airport and did we go somewhere else instead of home? I can't think of another explanation for the fact that I currently am in the most amazing hotelroom I've ever seen. This bed.. It's so big and amazing. The room is so big and the funny thing is, it's round. And it catches so much light! There are 3 windows in here and there's a soft morning sun shining through the white thin curtains. A nice summer breeze blows through the curtains.

But why am I alone in this bed? Where is Beau? And why don't I remember how I got here? I try to grab my phone to see the time but I can't find it. Where te hell did I drop that damn thing? Anyways.. Let me take a look at the view! I walk over to one of the windows, open the curtain and what I see then is the most beautiful thing ever!

There's a big lake and there are trees everywhere.. I feel like some kind of Rapunzel in her tower. This really is a castle. I wonder if this is a hotel or if we're the only ones here. I walk around in this room. There's a beautiful make-up desk with a wonderful mirror. This room must be so romantic at night. I see roses on the ground and 2 glasses of wine on the small table next to the bed.

He must have been glad to be home.. I smile, I'm so lucky. Then I notice there's a tray with some breakfast on it. There are some white sandwiches with jam and some orange juice. Also there's an egg that's still warm. Next to it there's a red rose & a letter. Beautiful thick paper with something written on it in a romantic handwriting. "For my beautiful Princess". How sweet. I giggle and open the letter as I make my way back to the bed with the tray.

"Dear Jennifer,

I hope you feel comfortable in this room, in this castle, with this breakfast, with this view. It was such a relieve to see you healthy and alive after those days I was gone. I'm sorry I left, I never should have left you. From now on, I'll never leave you again. We will always be together from this moment. I'm sure of it. I will protect you with my life. We belong together.

Love, your one and only.

P.S. The next letter is in the bathroom."

Wauw. I never knew Beau could be THIS romantic. This is the sweetest letter ever. I'll keep this letter forever. He's the sweetest. This feels like our honeymoon, even tho we're not even married yet. Happy and full of love, I start eating this delicious breakfast. Wondering what's on the letter in the bathroom. He's full of surprises..
