Olivia's Pov
Therapy was going well. I was able to tell this lady everything that I was feeling and I think I'm getting better. I still get flashbacks and nightmares but I have a feeling that they're going to take a long time to go. I had spoken to my mum about the whole thing and she worried insisting she brought a ticket over. I convinced her I was fine but she made me promise to come over before or after Christmas. Christmas was so soon. Less than a month away and I hadn't even started buying presents. I couldn't wait for Christmas, I just wanted something to lift the spirits and make me and Joe happy.
"How was the session"
Joe asked as I climbed into the car
"It was good and you know you didn't have to wait for me, I could of made my own way home"
"I know, I wanted to wait though"
"Well thanks"
"No problem, come here"
I leaned towards Joe and he kissed me.
"Do you want to go home or do you want to go and do something"
"Um let's go shopping"
Joe gave me a look
"Come on I won't be long and then we can go and get some food"
"Ok then"
Joe started driving to the shopping centre. He hand was placed on my thigh with my hand over the top of his. I liked our fingers together and leant back and closed my eyes. After a while I felt the car come to a stop and I opened my eyes and saw that Joe had parked the car. I climbed out of the car and grabbed my bag whilst Joe did the same. We linked our hands together and started to walk into the shopping centre.
"So where do you want to go first"
Joe asked
"Superdrug"
Joe nodded and we began walking through the centre down to one end where Superdrug was. We entered in the shop and I knew what I was coming in here for so hopefully I wouldn't be long. I picked up a new foundation and some fake eyelashes and a whole load of Zoe's new Christmas range as well as a few bits from Tanya's range. Ever since the accident I've been wearing a lot more makeup than I usually do mainly because I feel really self conscious. It's not nice people you calling you names like fat or ugly and the more the say it, the more you start to believe it.
I payed for the things and walked out of the shop with Joe. We went to a few other shops like Topshop and New look as well as going to a department store as I picked up some Christmas decorations as did Joe. We were now going to get some lunch and then afterwards we were going to do some more Christmas shopping and then leave each other so we could shop for each other.
We were sitting in Starbucks as we didn't really want something massive to eat only a sandwich. I had gone for a hot chocolate and some helium wrap thing whilst Joe had also gone for a hot chocolate and a club sandwich.
"So what do you want to for Christmas"
"Huh"
"What do you want to do, we're spending Christmas together right"
"I want to I just gathered you would spend it with family"
"You are my family Liv"
My heart melted a tiny bit
"I don't mind then, I'll do whatever"
"Ok why don't I not ask Zoe and we can spend Christmas there"
"What about Caspar"
"Caspar normally goes to South Africa to spend it with his family but if not I'm sure Zoe won't mind Caspar coming"
"Ok then"
Once we finished our lunch, Joe and I split up so we could go Christmas shopping. To be honest I had no idea what to buy for Joe. I started with Zoe because I had some idea of what to get her. I walked into the shop tiffany and co and brought her the little heart earrings. I remember her talking to me about them the other month and since she's my best friend I had to get them for her. For Alfie I picked him up a few hats and these really cool pair of shoes. For Chai I picked up some Chai tea bags because of our nicknames and a new microphone for his gaming channel as his has broke recently.
I was left with Caspar and Joe. I had already brought for my mum and Cameron but I had no idea what to get Caspar or Joe. As horrible as it sounds I decided to leave Caspar's present for today as I honestly couldn't think of anything and I could ask Joe for some ideas and buy him something later on. After considering a lot of things I ended up getting Joe a new pair of trainers and a vlogging camera.
I still felt like that wasn't enough but I was fed up of shopping and Christmas wasn't tomorrow so I still had time to buy. I text Joe to see if he was finished and shortly after he replied telling me to meet him in Primark by the tills. I walked through the shopping centre over to where Primark was and started to walk over to the tills when all of a sudden someone caught my eye
He looked familiar. Very familiar. I just couldn't put a finger on it. I watched him as he walked around as I tried to cast my memory as to who he was. When suddenly it hit me
-Flashback-
"Please I'm begging you"
I cried
"I'll do anything"
"Anything?"
He smirked. I nodded. However much I hated that thought I had to think of my baby. I didn't want it to die. I had to do what was right
"Come here then"
I shuffled over to him as I knew I wouldn't be able to walk. My legs would give way and I would collapse onto the floor.
"On your knees"
I did as he said. He walked around me and traced the knife down my back digging it into my skin
-End of flashback-
I looked up and he was gone. I stepped backwards and caught eyes with Joe. I couldn't stay here that murder, that criminal was here and god knows what could happened. I started to run. I ran out of the shop and out of the shopping centre. I could hear Joe running after me and screaming my name. Once I had ran a fair distance I stopped. I couldn't believe it. Out of all the places he could be he was he. I am almost 100% certain it was him. Remembering all the things he did to me makes me sick to the stomach and makes me want to smash his face in and I'm not a very violent person.
Joe caught up to me.
"What happened Liv"
"Oh nothing I just had an image"
"Come on tell me"
"I saw him Joe"
"Saw who"
"The guy that basically ruined my life"
"What! Are you sure"
"I'm positive"
"We should call the police, they never put a face to the name. With your information and memories we can have that sick bastard put behind bars forever"
I shook my head
"I just want to put it all behind me, I've had enough dwelling on the past. I need to move on and start a new life"
"Are you sure, knowing that man is behind bars could help you"
"I'm positive"
