 Driving a bus seemed to be easy for Nick, Dan and Florence sat on the floor to keep out of sight.

 

“Out of interest, why did you kiss him?” Florence sighed when Dan brought this up; she knew it was a mistake.

 

“He was dead and now he’s alive, I just went a bit crazy.”

 

“You threw up when you found out I was alive and tried to beat me up.”

 

“I did slap him. I’m not sorry I kissed him, I’m sorry you saw.”

 

“There you go again. If you…”

 

“I don’t love him, I love you. It’s like the Kyle thing; there are other people who have liked me and Nick of all people deserved that kiss, he has saved me, he’s saved us both. How could you keep his death a secret?” She argued.

 

“He’s saved us more than you realize, in these past 8 months there have been a few people coming after you but he eliminates the threats as quick as they come up. I kept it secret because he told me to, it was better for him to disappear if you thought he was dead.” Dan explained.

 

“How do you know he protects us?”

 

“We have weekly phone discussions, and I’ve helped him out a few times.”

 

“You’ve helped him?” Florence now understood why every couple of weeks Dan would come back home with grazes on his legs and arms. “Daniel, you’ve been risking your life for me?” Dan stared into her eyes and she knew that meant ‘Yes’.

 

“Daniel, you could have told me. I would have understood.”

 

Dan shook his head, “No you wouldn’t have. Florence it’s getting harder to talk to you, I feel as if we’re being pulled apart. I know it’s my fault for being away at concerts and…” She placed her finger on his lips.

 

“It isn’t your fault at all and its funny cause there is a perfectly fine explanation for all of this, it’s just I can’t tell you till this is all over. And don’t ask why please, I promise I will tell you just not now, okay?” Dan nodded. Florence sat herself in front of him cross legged. “I love only you. If Nick is ever over protective or you see us talking or I hug him it doesn’t mean anything because you have saved me and I will never stop loving you.”

 

Dan moved his face closer to hers. “You are so full of cheese, but I love you.” He said and planted a kiss on her lips. “Don’t say cheese I’m hungry.” Florence giggled.

 

“I’ll buy you some crackers; I don’t want you emptying your stomach contents again.” Nick yelled back and Florence threw her shoe at him. “Heeeey. Not nice!”
