Beau's POV

The skies blanket of darkness had now fallen upon us and both Dahlia and I had grown very tired. The day had been long and neither of us had slept since yesterday morning. As we both grew sleepier I decided to pull over into a empty field and rest for the night.

After pulling up we both go out the car and I pulled out some blankets then sat on the bonnet of the car. Dahlia comes over to join me, wriggling in close to my side for warmth and I hug her back. I never wanted to let her.

"Beau?"

"Yes?" I whisper, propping my head up in my hands and I look down at her, her eyes burning into mine. No matter how many times I looked into her eyes, each and everytime they seemed more and more beautiful, always so green and full.

"Can you tell me a story, maybe one about you? Where did you grow up?"

I open my mouth and she sits up, intrigued to hear about her mystery boy. I smiles down at me, realising that she's sitting on the very edge of her seat

"Okay, well, where do I begin.." I pause to rub my chin, my stubble scratching against my hands.

"Similar to you, my dad left when my brothers and I were very little. We used to watch he hurt my mum and seeing him do that always upset me so much. Mum raised Jai, Luke and I single handedly, with help from my Nonna and Nonno. Nonna was like our second mum and Nonno our father...." I trail of and smile to myself. She lies back into my arms and tilts her head up to look at the sky. Out of the city, there weren't many lights making the stars appear to shine brighter in the sky.

"Beau! A shooting star!" she shouts, almost falling off the bonnet but I grab her just in time.

"Make a wish Gray" I laugh and I squeeze her hand tight as she shuts her eyes and I copy.

When I open them her eyes are still shut.

"Dahlia?" I ask softly, brushing the hair out of her face. She doesn't reply and I listen to the even breathing of her sleep. Quietly I slide off the bonnet of the car and scoop her up into my arms along with the blankets. She stirs slightly as I place her back down in the car, but doesn't wake.

"Good night Dahlia" I say kissing the top of her head before I get in the other side and shut my eyes to.

~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~

I wake up to the sound of the radio humming quietly in the front. I look up to see Dahlia huddled close to the speaker listening intently to the news.

"Dahlia Gray has been reported missing after been seen getting lead away by a young adult male, said to go by the name of Beau Brooks. Police have spoken to Dahlia's stepfather and her mother who right now is in hospital due to an accident she had a week ago.

No one has seen Dahlia or kidnapper Beau Brooks since yesterday morn-"

I switch it off and Dahlia doesn't react to it. I was worried what she was going to say.

"Beau...." she says softly, entwining our fingers together. Just as I expect her to say something negative and huge grin spreads across her face and she starts laughing.

"What? What is it?" I ask, unsure whether to laugh along or not.

"I did it!" she shouts "We did it! My previous life is over!"

"Well, actually Dahlia-"

"Over!" she laughs jumping our the car running around and throwing her arms up into the arms, the wind whipping her hair everywhere. I get out and join her. Who cares what could happen. She was right. We did make it. She was safe and that's all that mattered.

Ian's POV

"So she didn't tell you where she was going?"

"No! I told you, I saw the boy grab her and force her into the car! I tried to stop him...but....." I trail off and try to force out some tears. The officer places her hand on my shoulder before speaking again.

"We know this is a hard for you Mr Gray with your wife in hospital and now you daughter missing, you must understand though we are doing everything we can"

I nod and let out a few more tears.

"Um so um" I start, dab my eyes with the tissue she hands me " What exactly will happen to this 'Beau Brooks' when he's...caught?"

"He will be trialled for abduction and if found guilty will receive a sentence"

"How long will the the sentence be?" I ask, trying not to show how gleeful I was feeling. As soon as they find them, it will just be back to how it was before. No rebel. Dahlia listening to what I tell her to do.

"Only the court crown can decide that, now if you'll excuse me Mr Gray, I must get back to the station. We will get back to you the minute we hear something" the officer bids me goodbye and I watch her leave out the door and drive off in her patrol car. The house is silent again. Without Dahlia or Sarah, I had nothing to do.

Dahlia's POV

"Beau! Slow down!" I giggle, grabbing his knee is excitement, the wind whipped my hair around my face. The music was blasting out the windows as we traveled along the flat stretch of road that followed the coast to Perth. The suns rays reflected of the sea making it shimmer in the light. Beau pushes down harder on the pedal and the engine revs louder is reply.

"Beau! Seriously!" I managed to gasp through my fits of laughter "You're going to hit something!"

"Oh shush Gray! Don't be so paranoid, I would never ever out your life in danger. EVER." he smiles and glances over to me, our eyes meeting.

You know those scenes is romance films, where the girl and the boy and their eyes meet and everything around them freezes and you think they're going to kiss, but then at the same time you don't. Yeah, it was like that and all that time his eyes were staring into mine and a fire was burning in the very pits of my stomach, a ache of lust in my heart. Was this love?

The sounds of another engine revving suddenly catches my attention. When I looks back towards the road, I see a silver car traveling full speed towards us.

"BEAU! BEAU ITS GOING TO HIT US! BEAU!" I scream, the car getting nearer and nearer. Beau is panicking to, his green eyes now dark and shadey.

The car is yards away from us how and the sick feeling in my stomach builds up. Why did I come with him?! If I had only stayed at home!

I feel Beau grab my hand as I bring my head down between my knees, preparing myself for the blow. All I had to do was wait. It would all be over soon......
