I wake up due to someone shaking my shoulder. I open my eyes to see Alexander. At first, I panicked then I remember that we were on his jet. I calmed down and sat my seat up.
"We're landing buckle up," he says.
I buckle and take a few breaths from what I can remember from flying in planes, the landing is always scary. Alexander holds my hand again as if reading my mind. We finally land and were able to leave. Alexander was still holding my hand and it was kinda uncomfortable.
"Shouldn't we leave?" I ask awkwardly taking my hand back.
"Yes we should," he says getting up from his seat allowing me to get up from mine.
We walk out of the jet and into a car. I was a black SUV with tinted windows.
"W-what about our luggage?" I ask a bit nervous about riding in a suspicious car in a different country.
"Don't be scared baby girl its already in the car." he opens the door for me.
I hesitantly crawl in. Alexander goes around the car and gets in on the other side. The chauffeur starts the car and drives away from the airport. The driver speaks back to us.
"Nice to see you again Mr. Grayson," he says he looked familiar. "Nice to meet you, Ms. Elvira, I've heard so much about you," he said turning to face me at a stop light. Then it hit me.
"Didn't you fly the plain?" I ask noticing his similarity to the pilot.
"No, I'm his identical brother Larry," he said and continued to drive.
Larry and Garry had brown hair paired with shocking silver eyes. It is an unusual color for eyes, but hey unusual is cool.
"Well nice to make your acquaintance Larry," I say giving him a warm smile.
He smiles back at me through the rear view mirror. Alexander glared at Larry through the mirror and his smile fell. Larry became silent and watched the road. Do you see what I mean when I say suffocating and possessive? I give my own glare at Alexander. I look out the window at the beautiful mid-day sun shining down. We were taking a rural road to a dock from there we would take a boat to The Grayson family's Island.
"Its pretty," I comment looking at the sparkling ocean.
"Yes, it is," Alexander says grabbing my hand.
I squeezed his hand a sudden feeling of affection shooting through me. I remembered when we first met, how this all started, How it ended. Tears threaten to spill down my face. I hastily blink them away. I stare out the window and let the memories flood back. The ones I have been trying to avoid for years.

Elvira's flashback
_______________________
It was the last day of 8th grade I was behind the gym and school had already been let out for the summer. But I didn't want to go home. my dad had started to drink and had been very violent at the time. I sat looking at a picture of me and my mom. She had been gone for a month. I took out a knife and held it to my wrist.
Maybe I could see her again?
I was about to cut when a strong force pulled the knife out of my hand and pulled me up by the wrist. I wasn't aware of how hard I was crying. I looked up to see a familiar face. It was a boy who was in my grade. He was Alexander Grayson one of the popular boys. He never paid much attention to me and he tended to be kind of a bully to other kids. I knew he was 15 because his birthday was a few months ago, I wasn't invited of course, but those who did go said it was awesome.
"What do you think you were doing?!" he shouted at me checking my wrist.
I didn't say anything just stared down at my bloody wrist. I hadn't made a fatal cut but the scars I had put there from the last month where out in the open for him to see. I felt embarrassed about my scars and tried to pull my wrist away. Alexander wasn't having any of that and held his grip.
"We need to get you to the nurse, I think they are still open," he said pulling me behind him on his search for the nurse's office.
"No!" I said and had dug my heels in the ground.
I wasn't going to the nurse's office if they saw what I did to my wrist they would send me to a mental hospital.
"Stop being so difficult I'm trying to help you!" he yelled and pulled harder.
"No! Please no i-if they find out-, Im all my father has left!" I protested.
He gave me a sympathetic look.
"Please? Look it already stopped bleeding." I said trying to persuade him.
I could see he was battling himself through his eyes. Finally, he turned towards the parking lot he still hasn't let go of my wrist. He stopped and pulls out his phone.
"W-what are you doing?" I asked still a little shaken from what had happened.
"Yes I need a ride, im at the back of the school," he said and hung up.
"Was that your dad?" I asked
he snorted and shook his head "No that was my driver,"
Driver? Does he have that kind of money?
A car pulled in front of us and we got in. I felt like I was having an anxiety attack. My breathing wavered and I started to tremble. Alexander noticed my frail state and hugged me. He hardly knew me but he saved my life and tried to calm me down. I knew then that I would forever be grateful to him.
The car pulled in front of this huge house in the woods. Alexander got out and carried me in. He set me on the couch and started making phone calls. I had blanked out and had retreated to the darkest corner of my mind. I went into my headspace, I always felt safe there like no one could hurt me.
Alexander came over and noticed me sucking my thumb. He smiled gently and pulled my thumb out of my mouth. He produced a binky and placed it in front of me. I took it and sucked on it feeling comforted. He picked me up and took me to a pink room that had been turned into a nursery for someone bigger than a baby. I had learned later on that Alexander was a daddy looking for a little girl to love and take care of. I happily volunteered for the role.

End of flashback
______________________________
I lean against Alexander and he wraps an arm around me. I snuggle into him as we cuddle. He rests his chin on top of my head and takes in a breath. It was comforting in that moment. I knew that after what he has put me through I shouldn't feel comfortable with him. But in the memory of what he did for me, I find myself growing affectionate towards him. Like the first time we met.
