Cole's POV

I watched as Lulu hid her tiny frame behind the curtains beside the door. The plan was to lure Mark into the house just enough for Lulu so swing the baseball bat to his head and knock him out. Hopefully.

"3...2...1" I said just loud enough for Lulu to hear. I reached out for the door handle and pulled it open.

"Mark" i nodded my head towards him.

"Cole" He followed suit by nodding his head too. "The kid is in the car. I'll hand him over once i have seen Lulu's body"

"Fair enough" I gestured for Mark to walk into the house. He shut the door and on cue a loud thwack echoed throughout the house and Marks body went limp, dropping to the ground. "You grab Sammy. I'll tie him up" I looked up at Lulu who was taking deep breaths. She had the worse job in this and i could tell it had upset her. But i couldn't think of that right now. Mark was the main priority.

"O.. ok..okay" She stuttered out. Dropping the bat and heading out side. I ran to the kitchen where the duck tape and the rope was being kept. I ran back to his figure and tied his hands together along with his feet. After i covered his mouth with tape i dragged his body to the living room where i tied him up again but this time to a chair.

Lulu's Pov

Feeling the vibrations run through my hands i dropped the bat. Watching Marks body go limp i actually felt a tad sympathetic. I heard Cole say something but it didn't register. I knew what my part was now due to our planning. I turned to walk out the door. Sammy was still in the car when i reached it. What i saw broke me out my daze. Sat in the back seat was a younger version of Cole. He was covered in dirt and his eyes were stained red from crying. I went to open the door but it was locked.

"Sammy?" His head snapped up towards my voice. "Sammy please open the door. Im friends with Cole. Im here to help you" He seemed reluctant at first but eventually crawled over to the door and opened it. I pulled him into my arms and rubbed his back. He started crying again and held on with dear life.

I slowly walked back towards the house and knowing that Marks body was in the living room and the sight of it would upset Sammy i took him to the kitchen.

"Are you hungry? Thirsty?" I asked as i placed him on the counter.

"Yes" His voice sounded so broken that i couldn't stop myself as i pulled him back into my arms. He didn't seem to mind.

"It's going to be okay. Oh by the way my name is Lulu." I couldn't seem to let him go so as i made Sammy a drink and food i held him on my hip. I was use to it as whenever Oliver was upset i would do the exact same. I found a sookie cup in the cupboards which had Sammy written on it, so i filled it with orange juice and handed it to him.

"Tank you"

"Your welcome" I replied giving him a big smile which he returned. "Now what do you want to eat? I bet your hungry" He nodded his head at that.

"Coc Pops"

"One bowl of Coco Pops coming right up Sir" Sammy laughed at his. His laughter was joined in by Cole. I turned around to see him leaning against the door watching us.

"Ole. Ole. Ole" Sammy jumped out of my arms and ran towards his brother. I turned back around and finished making Sammy his Coco pops.

"Bon appetit" Cole walked over with Sammy in his arms and placed him on a seat. I placed the cereal in front of him and watched him dig in.

Images of Oliver flooded my mind and tears threaten to break through.

"I'll er... I'll be back in a minute" I said as i rushed out the kitchen and up to my room. I had one picture of me, Oliver and my mum that i had hidden in my room. I sat on my bed and let the tears fall. I felt the bed dip beside me and warm arms wrapped around my waist.

"Once we have dealt with Mark im going to take you straight to them. Okay?"

"What am i meant to say to them though? Oh hey mum yea the reason i left was because of my serial killer of a step dad threatened me and my baby brother so i left and was taken in by a sexy stranger who i now love but found out that Mark stole his little brother so he had to kill me to get him back but then we came up with a plan so i hit him across the head with a baseball bat and now im here. Yea im sure that's going to go down great. She'll have a heart attack."  Cole laughed. Yes you heard me. He laughed. "Why the hell are you laughing?"

"Lulu?" I turned towards where Sammy was standing in the doorway.

"Yes sweeti?" He walked over to me so he was standing right infront of me. I picked him up and placed him on my lap. His arms wrapped around my neck.

"Tank you for the Pops."

"Your welcome sweeti."

"Tweeti? Tweet tweet" Cole chuckled at his little brother and i couldn't help but join in. "Who dat?" Sammy asked pointing to the picture of Oliver and my mum.

"Thats my mum and that's my baby brother Oliver. He's the same age as you."

"He gwo to cool with me"

"Ah yea. You i forgot you guys when to school together." Sammy yawned and buried his head into my neck. After a couple of minutes he was asleep. "Cole? What are we going to do with Mark?" We hadn't planned this part yet. "We have no Prof he killed that guy. We have no proff of anything he did. Its his word against ours. And we can't just kill him but we can't let him walk either. "

"Your right. If we go to the police he could walk but we would get arrested because we hit him and tied him up. We have to be smart about this. To be honest im all up for killing him. He hurt my family and yours and mainly he hurt you. As i said the other day im willing to kill him for the hell he has put you through."

"I know Cole but i can't have his blood on my hands, and what if we get caught then what. I can't loose you and neither can Sammy. Not when he's just got you back."

"I have cage's down stairs. Mum use to run a dog business and kept the dogs downstairs. We can keep him there till we know what to do with him."

"Right now it's the only thing we can do"

"Okay" i layed Sammy's sleeping body down on our bed and wrapped the blanket around his small body. Cole dealt with moving Mark's body while i tidied up the living room. I turned the news on while i was picking up the rope and putting it in bags.

The head line wrote. Man killed and found in woods beside shopping market. Supposed killer Mark Henderson. Been wanted by police in 4 countries. Has killed 6 people over the past 2 years. Be aware, highly dangerous. If seen call this number.

It was as if the world handed us a solution.

"COLE" i screamed. Cole came running in seconds later

"WHAT!" I re-wond the tv and pressed play. After listening to it Cole face lit up. "Lulu! Your a genus!" He pulled me into his body and spun me about. I laughed at his sudden movements. He placed me down and cupped my face. "You ready to go home?" I nodded my head and he placed his lips against mine. Our kiss only lasted a couple of minutes before we were interrupted by Sammy shouting "EWWWWWW" And covering his eyes. Cole wound his fingers with mine and grabbed Sammy. We headed out to the car and then was on our way. Home. I couldn't keep a smile off my face.
