☆ Georges P.O.V ☆

When I woke up the first thing that I saw was Kate, her eyelids gently fluttering, she must be dreaming I thought. Looking at her it was hard to believe what Matt had done to her, I knew so much about her despite our short time together and from what I knew she was a kind and loving person who deserved none of this.

I left for America with the boys tomorrow. It suddenly clicked.

It was the perfect way to keep Kate safe...she could travel around America with us! I realised that I was grinning when I felt Kates body shift from my side. I watched her dark blue eyes slowly open as her arms spread out while she stretched.

"morning beautiful" I whispered in her ear. She laughed when my breath touched her neck and she turned to me with her eyes closed and her lips slightly parted. I instantly kissed her and she wrapped her hands around my neck. I melted into her arms as she held me close. We were both smiling until almost at once we both remembered that Kate was going to the police station today.

"Are you still sure about telling the police? Don't feel like I'm forcing you" I said gently, trying to reassure her. 

"I'm 100% ready, I have you and I trust you with my life. He can't hurt me now George, we have nothing to lose" she said determinedly.

After half an hour of lying in bed together and talking we both got up and I let Kate use the bathroom first. While she took a shower I made breakfast for us both in the kitchen. I was frying bacon when Jaymi walked in. "I bet there's no bacon in that pan for me Mr.Shelley" Jaymi said. "Sorry Jay, you snooze you lose!" I said laughing at him. "Where's Kate?" he asked. I looked down nervously, wondering wether to tell him about Matt. We would have to tell them or lie about where we were going today. Jaymi sat down with a cup of tea at the table. I sat across from him with a mug of coffee in my hands. 

"Me and Kate are going to the police station after breakfast" I started. Jaymi looked horrified. "It's nothing like that" I told him. "I saw red marks down the side of Kate's face last night and I asked her how she got them. It's so much worse than I thought" I said with a tear in my eye. Jaymi put his hand on top of mine which was resting on the table. "Her ex-boyfriend Matt has been abusing her. She ran away to this village to escape from him. But she found out two days ago that he had followed her and he had seen me out with her. When she got back to the hotel last night he was in her room and he attacked her again. "Oh George this is awful" Jaymi said squeezing my hand. "I know" I whispered, a few tears escaping. I wiped my eyes and stood back up to plate our breakfast. "We've decided to go to the police station today, she's reporting everything. I've promised her that I'll keep her safe." 

"I understand" he said kindly, "But America's tomorrow George.." 

"I know" I said quickly. "She doesn't know it yet, but she's coming with us" I said, looking at him for approval.

"That's amazing! You deserve her George..I mean just looking at you two when you first met.. anyone could see that she's infatuated with you and the way you look at her is the way that I look at Olly. So when are you going to ask her to come with us?" He said, excitement in his face. "Tonight, I have a suprise" I said smirking. "I'd better leave you to it then" he said smiling. "I hope everything goes okay with the police" he patted my back and left the kitchen, heading back to his room.

* Kate's P.O.V*

I stepped into the shower, the hot water running down my back, relaxing my muscles. I could hear a radio on in the kitchen, Love Story by Taylor Swift was playing. I started humming the tune as I wrapped a towel around myself, looking for the clothes I packed in my bag. I put on a plain black day dress that buttoned up at the back but I couldn't reach them. I pulled some tights on trying not to fall over. 

I stood infront of the bathroom mirror taking out my makeup bag and doing a flick of eyeliner on each of my eyes and brushing on black mascara. My hair was still wet but I didn't know where the hairdryer was so I thought I'd just wait. I left George's room and saw his back turned, he was making us breakfast. He was the sweetest thing, I thought to myself.

I walked up behind him and put my head on his shoulder. "What's all this then" I said happily, observing what was in the pan. "Well I hope you like bacon because that's all we seem to have" he said laughing and kissing my forehead. I poured us both fresh coffee and we sat down eating out bacon sandwiches on  the sofa. Once we had finished he said that we'd better head to the police station so that we didn't waste any time of our last day. I was trying not to think of spending the next few months without him, but how could I not? I walked to his room to put my ankle boots on and he followed behind me. "Hold on" he said, buttoning the back of my dress behind my kneck where I had forgotten. His touch still sent shivers down my spine, no matter wether I was expecting it or not. 

George tied his converse and checked he had his phone and wallet in his pocket. I zipped up my leather jacket before we stood hand in hand in the lift to the ground floor. I couldn't help but nervously check around for Matt as we got into his car heading for the station. When we got there george put his hand on my back guiding me through the doors. "We can go home any time you want okay?" he said, brushing my cheek with his hand. 

We were in the police station for 2 hours in total. I was in tears by the end of it, having to explain everything in such detail was horrendous, especially since George had to wait outside. When I left the interview room I fell into his arms in tears.

As she left the inerview room she broke down in tears, and I grabbed her in my arms. "Shhh, it's okay I'm here now" I spoke softly, stroking her hair, my arms placed protectively around her. I wiped her tears away with my thumbs and held her until her crying stopped. I knew taking her to America was going to be the right decision after this. 

We drove to the cafe where she worked, and I told her to take a seat in the corner while I ordered our drinks, but actually I just needed to speak to her manager. "Hi, I'm George" I said, offering her my hand.  She shook it and looked over to the corner where Kate was at, she looked up and waved at Linda. I ordered our drinks and handed over the money. "Erm, just to let you know, Kate doesn't know it yet but I'm taking her to America with me as a suprise so she won't be able to work for a few months." I said quietly, making sure Kate couldn't hear. "Oh that's a shame" Linda said, her expression saddened. "I honestly love working with her, she's like the daughter I never had" she said warmly. "But you make sure that you tell her that her job will still be waiting for her when you get back" she added, smiling. I picked up our coffees and started to walk away. "You look after her young man" she said looking at me straightly. "Don't you worry Linda, I love her too much not to look after her" I said smiling.
