You don't  have to listen to the song but you should 💕

( Just fair warning you now that this book kinda turned into more action than romance. Don't worry I still have big plans for Greyson and Brittany. Just know that there is probably going to be a lot of twists and turns but other than that I really hope you guys enjoy this update.!)

*Greyson POV*

"There's a chance that I'm not going to make it. If I don't watch her. Take care of her."

"Of course," I respond.

"Another thing, Brittany doesn't know about the money. It's in a Government bank account. If I die the money goes to her. Don't tell her this unless I die. Our parents didn't die in a plane crash. That's all I can say. Take her to a different country don't let her out of your sight until that son of a bitch Brad is either dead or put away."

"I have my best men on the case." 

"Keep her safe." He says to me as I walk out of the door.

I see Brittany sitting down on the bench outside of the door. 

"Are you ready?"

"No, we have to go back to the apartment. I have to see the twins."

"Of course we have to make it quick."

"What about my stuff?"  

" I'll have one of my guys take care of it."

We get in the car and head back to the private jet. Later that night we were back at the apartment. I opened the apartment and see Zach and Tyler sitting on the couch. Zach looks up at me. 

"Brittany!!" He runs up and gives me a huge hug.

"Guys, I have bad news. I have to leave."

"What? Why? Where are you going?"

"I have to leave."

"Are you coming back?" Tyler asked.

"When everything is in the clear, Yes, I will come back."

I give them both a hug. I grab the stuff that I need. It sucks that I just got settled in with college. Now I have to uproot and move to a different country. I look at the twins Zach has his sad face on and Tyler looks hurt.

"I'll call you guys I promise." I blow them both a goodbye kiss. Greyson leads me to the door and we get downstairs and get in the car. 

"I'm sorry this had to happen."

"Yeah. I just want to be normal and go to college."

"Well, you just have to go online. I already got it set up it should be ready in a couple of days."

"That's good," I say.

"Where do you want to go?"

"I don't know. Anywhere I guess."

Silence fills the car and I get on my phone and scroll through Pinterest.

"Austrailia maybe." 

"Sure as long as you keep your school works up."

"Jeeze, You sound like my dad."

"Really?"

"Yeah," I say sticking out my tongue.

I continue scrolling through Pinterest.

"I want brownies"

"Well, we can have some later."

"Okay," I reply

"I miss my brother. I miss Tyler and Zach, and I miss my parents. Why does everything bad happen to me? Why can't I have a normal life.?'

"I know it sucks." He says. He grabs my hand and kisses the back of it.

"We have each other. That's something that you won't ever lose."

"That sounded so cheesy lmao" I laugh

"Babe I'm serious, I'd do anything for you."

I let his words sink in as we drive off into the distance. Eventually, we reach the private jet that I have become accustomed to over the past couple of months. We get on the jet and Greyson looks at me as I put my bag down. I can't believe I have to leave.

Hopefully, I won't be gone for long.

"What's wrong?" Greyson asked me. 

"I don't want to leave," I say sadly.

"We'll come back I promise. Just think of it as a vacation. Okay, babe?"

"Okay," I reply.
I will admit I would love to go on vacation but this wasn't a vacation.  This was a hideout.  Somewhere to keep me away from stupid brad.  I plug my headphones in and play some tunes.  Eventually, I fall asleep.
***
I wake up to the sun rising and the jet landing.
"Are we here yet?" I ask sleepily.  I'm exhausted I hear Greyson say something but I can't make it out because I fall back asleep. 
I wake up once more only this time I'm in a car.
"It was a dream?" I ask under my breath.
"Welcome to Austrailia!" Greyson says. 
Dammit.  I look at the clock. 
"It's 4:30? How?"
"Well, it's a different time zone.  You have a case of jet lag. "
I groan.  I'm hungry and my belly growls.
"Hey, you shut up," I say to my stomach.
"Can we stop somewhere? "
"For food? "
"Don't judge me"
"I wasn't.  Were not far from the beach what do you want to eat? "
"Wait why are we going to the beach? "
"That's where my house is.  What do you want to eat angel? "
I suddenly felt like I was forgetting something. 
"Greyson I forgot angel we have to go back! "
Greyson pulls into a driveway to a beach house. I see a tabby cat on the porch laying down and enjoying the shade.
"Angel? " I get out of the car and run up to angel and pick her up and snuggle her. A big, tall, and muscular guy comes out.
"Put the cat down ma'am I don't want anyone to get hurt. "
He reaches for angel but I smack his hand and he pulls away.
Greyson walks up on the porch.
"Brittany,  I see you've met Ben. "
"Boss? "
I laugh.
"Ben this is Brittany not only will you be guarding angel but her as well.  When I'm not with her of course. "
"Yes sir, " he responds sternly.
I walk inside with angel in my arms.  I look for the kitchen but can't seem to find it.  I see a maid tidying up the furniture.
"Excuse me mam. " she looks up at me.  She looks confused.
"Yes.? " she asks politely.
"Do you know where the kitchen is? "
She points to a white door to the left of me. 
"Oh, I feel stupid.  Thank you. "
She doesn't reply only nods her head.
I head to the door and try and find some food for an angel.  I find a can of some type of fish.  I open the can and put it on a plate for her. I pet her a couple of times before I go to the fridge.
I pull out some lettuce and shredded cheese along with the ranch.  I start to make my salad when Greyson comes in.
"What ya making? " he asks as he snakes his arms around me and kisses my cheek.
"Salad" I replied smiling at the warmth of his body on mine.
"When do you think we can go back to the U. S.? "
"Britt" he sighed as he spun me around
"I have my best men on the case. i hope that they will find him soon. but until then we have to stay away from the U.S."
I kiss him.
"I know."

I turn back around and finish my salad. I head to the couch where I see the same maid still cleaning. I sit down on the couch next to Greyson. He is typing furiously at his keyboard.
"Woah there, killer," I say. He breaks his attention away from his laptops and looks at the big bowl of salad in my hands and then back at me.
"that's a big bowl." He says.
"I like salad."
"I can tell." He smiles at me
"I laugh a little.
He closes his laptop and scootches closer to me. He rests his head on my lap. I set my bowl of salad on his face. "Really?" he asks.
"Well, you stole my lap what do you expect?"
He laughs. There's a knock at the door. The maid that I saw earlier goes to the door she looks through the peephole and turns to Greyson. "Man in suit, Yes or no?"
I was confused but realized that she doesn't speak fluent English. Greyson gets up and looks through the peephole.
"Marcus?" he asks confused.
"Whos Marcus?" I ask confused.
