Behind the Lens the Sequel

ONE

As the coffin was slowly lowered into the ground alongside his Mother and Father's grave, Sophie supported by Trey, Marcus, Charlie and Jamison stood silently weeping.Ella and Edward held Sophie and Trey's hands,  watching as their daddy was laid to rest. At 4 years old they didn't really understand. They knew everyone had been crying for days and that Mummy told them Daddy would not be coming home. They cried too, but mainly because Mummy, Trey, Uncle Marcus and Aunty Charlie were crying. Jamison cried a little too but he was only 3 and he mainly wondered where Uncle Elliott was. He knew Uncle Elliott could make everyone happy again.

The last week had been a nightmare for the Becks. Things had been disappearing and going  mysteriously wrong all week. They knew someone was creating these mysterious incidents, they just didn't know who. As more things happened, the more concerned they became. Elliott hired bodyguards for the house to protect Sophie and the twins. He even hired a personal bodyguard.Elliott decided after a week of unfortunate incidents he would take all the family out on 'Charlotte' for some relaxation.  He didn't think he would need his bodyguard there so he sent him home for the afternoon.They never imagined how unhinged Sienna Raye had become since Marcus yelled at her in the hospital in front of everyone after Elliott's accident.

She approached 'Charlotte' calmly and drew her pistol.She took a shot at 'Charlotte' and waited for Elliott to appear.She didn't have to wait long, and Elliott came to see what the disturbance was. She took aim and emptied the remaining bullets into Elliott. She wanted to make sure he paid this time. Killing Elliott would also be Marcus's karma for attacking her verbally at the  hospital. Nobody threatens Sienna Raye, she thought as she calmly waited for the police to arrive.When they asked her to lower her weapon she raised it and aimed at them. The Police shot her dead. She had a note on her for Marcus,

"I win. Eternally Elliott's"

She had been obsessed with Elliott since high school. But Elliott never wanted her.  In her bitter and twisted mind if she killed Elliott and died with him they would be together for eternity. If only they  had known the extremes she would go to for revenge. She gave no consideration to the three innocent people she would affect with the things she set in motion before she died. She never would have hurt the children, but she would hurt Sophie, Marcus and Charlie. They would find out soon enough just how nasty Sienna Raye could be. And although she wouldn't be there to see it,what she did would rock them all to the core.Marcus had to take over at Beck Tower so he promoted Trey to Elliott's position at spinners and he would also help Marcus with Marcus Beck Music. It was Trey's dream job. On occasions because he was now the boss, he would still DJ when he desired. It wasn't as much as he used to though. It had always been fun when he and Sophie would dance together on his breaks. Now with Elliott gone she had to be with the twins more than ever, so he had not seen her in Spinners for some time. He tried to be there to help Sophie when he could.Ella and Edward loved him being there which made him happy, they were beautiful children. He didn't mind as he had just come out of a relationship with Charlie's cousin Lena, who he met at Marcus and Charlie's wedding.She was lovely but she just wasn't what he really wanted. Truthfully he just wanted to work right now and help his friends deal with their loss.

Sophie had hired a photographer for 'Behind the Lens' so she didn't have to close the shop. She had been in on odd days when Elliott had been off to look after the twins. Now though she had to rely on the new photographer.The store was making good profits and was usually fully booked. When the twins started school she would go back to the shop and back behind the lens where she belonged. She still took photos. It was still her passion just as much as before, but now the photos were focused on her family. She loved taking photos of Ella, Edward and Jamison. Kids were so natural in photos and there was never a bad photo of any of them. And she had taken many photos of them over their first four years. She had lots of photos from family gatherings of the twins with Elliott and their godparents. Trey was always included. Ella and Edward loved him so much. He would buy them musical instruments, which they loved. He also chased them around the garden to tire them out for bed. Then he would tuck them in and read them stories.

Sienna Raye had changed their lives once already by taking Elliott from them. Even from her grave she was going to be changing it even more. Life for them all was about to change again forever.
