I held Bella in my grasp. I couldn't let go now.
"Come on, let's take you to Grace's apartment," I ordered.
"Wait. What about my family?" she protested. That stung.
"Bella, I'm your family," I grab her hand and start to pull her along, Grace at my side.
"You can't just kidnap me!"
"I'm not!" I yelled, turning back and staring into her face. "I am taking you home."
"Okay," she whispered. She didn't protest after that. We made out way to Grace's place. Bella pressed between us. Grace didn't know Bella, but she felt comforted. Bella didn't know Grace and I could tell she was frightened.
"Bella," we paused to Grace could unlock her apartment. "This is Grace. She helped me find you."
"Hello," Grace looked over her shoulder and smiled before pushing open the door.
"In," I commanded, pushing Bella gently inside.
"Why did you come to find me?" she turned on me and snapped.
"Bella. I love you and I could let you go," my hands, placed firmly on her shoulders, trembled. "I couldn't loose you," I choked. I tried to push back tears.
"I know, but sometimes you need to give up."
"I couldn't- wouldn't -give you up," I pulled her into a hug, resting me chin on her forehead.
"I missed you," Bella breathed into my chest.
"I missed you two, Bell," I murmured back.

I ushered her to the bathroom and let her shower and clean up. Did she run away? How did she get exactly where we were.
I had to talk to her.
Bella appeared, a hour later, from the bathroom. She curled up next to me and Grace on the couch
"How did you find us?" Grace asked, her voice smooth.
"I tracked Caspian on my phone," Bella responded.
"Smart," I grinned, smoothing her ruffled black hair.
"How did you do that?" Grace chirped.
"I snuck my od phone with me, pulled up the tracker, and found him," Bella voice was flat and scratchy.
"Get some sleep," I kissed her forehead, my one arm wrapped around her and the other around Grace.

I am excited to finish it, I feel like iv'e been writing it forever.
It may not be very good, a little slow paced. I'm better when it comes to Fantasy/Fiction.
