Proud - Keep You

Chapter 1

The clash of thunder and lighting lit up the dark hooded figure at the bedroom door of Ivy’s room, with a weapon in its hand. The sound of rain pouring outside while you have Ivy tucked protectively into your body. Her cries ringing into your ears, as you know how scared your baby girl is.

“Please... Don’t-” “SHUT UP... Don’t you DARE talk, otherwise you’ll pay the consequence of my actions,” his voice boomed into the bedroom, making Ivy cry even more. “Shh, baby... Baby its okay,” you whispered into Ivy’s ears to comfort her as her grip clings onto the collar of your elegant white top. Although, within a flash of lighting, the body has moved itself to stand right in front of you, as you pull Ivy even more into your body.

Suddenly, the man has ripped Ivy from your grip. “NO, DON’T TAKE HER... PLEASE, IVY-” The man swings the baseball bat around, which hits you around the head, knocking you onto the floor. The man dragging Ivy away from you, by a hand full of hair, as you see your baby girl crying her eyes out and doing anything to get the man to lose grip on her hair, as he drags her into your room, and leaving her in there while locking the door.

By now, you have scrambled to your feet and have now run over to your bedroom door, and doing anything to unlock the door. “GET AWAY- FUCKING BITCH,” the man screams, as he pushes you with force, leaving you upon the floor. “GET DOWN THE STAIRS... NOW,” the man screams, his voice ringing in your ears, as you can still hear the thunder, the rain and Ivy’s cries from the top of the stairs. “Please, don’t hurt her,” you plead “I won’t, as long as you get down the stairs,” he hisses, before kicking your stomach making you yelp in pain. “MUMMY,” Ivy screams as she hears your cry in pain “SHUT THE FUCK UP,” the man screams while kicking the door where Ivy is locked behind it. Although, you have now stood up and started to make your way down the stairs, with the man following close behind you.

Suddenly, the man has a fist full of your hair, and drags you into the living room as you struggle to get his grip off you. Just then, you’re body is flung onto the cream sofa, with your face down. This man has his hand at the back of your head so that you’re pinned down and cannot escape. But now you hear a zip go... Now you know what to expect.

Aston’s POV:

“You are so beautiful,” I whisper into Claire’s ear, as she giggles before pressing her lips upon mine. Besides of the rain, thunder and lighting, I and Claire are tucked up in bed, enjoying a romantic kiss and cuddle session before going to sleep. The kiss continues as my hand attaches to the right side of her neck, “I love you... So much,” “I love you too,” she whispers as I smile, holding strong eye contact.

Soon afterwards, Claire had fallen asleep in my arms, but I stayed awake and thought about everything that has happened in the past three months: I got married to the beautiful girl that I had fallen in love with, (Your name) and Ivy were safe as ever since Kevin was put in jail for abuse, and JLS’ career was sky high.

From the day of the wedding, I and Claire went to Paris for our honeymoon as it was the ‘city of love’ so I thought taking us there would be perfect... And it was! Claire and I haven’t thought about having children yet, but that’s because of the limelight that JLS are in at the moment, and it will be stressful for Claire to go through if she was to be pregnant.

(Your name) and Ivy was doing perfect and I have been seeing a lot of them lately, about four times a week! Although, the sad thing is, (Your name) is still single and has been since she broke up with Kevin and that was nine months ago. Jasmine, Claire, Fay and Laura have all been trying to help her find someone, but she claims that either the lad turns out to be full of himself or is boring.

What can I say about JLS? Other than the whole band being loved up, and working really hard. The band’s new album is to be out soon! It’s called ‘Evolution’ and it’s perfect for our fans and new sound. Plus, we have a new single soon on release, ‘Hottest Girl In The World’. How perfect does that sound?! I associate that to Claire, and I have told her quite a few times, but she blushes and giggles. I know she likes it when I say that to her, but she pretends that she is too shy for such a compliment! JLS also have an upcoming interview on live TV on ‘The Jonathon Ross Show’, and we’ll be performing our new single on there.

Could life not get any better? I was just about to find out the answer.
