Evangeline
Sitting up in the lounger my heart jumped, surely it couldn't be him. My beautiful bump wriggled underneath my hands as my boys touched their mummy. My life now more complicated than before. It was going to be just me and my boys. In our apartment, together forever. But Gray was here and he was looking for me. He'd never forgive me.

No no no! The grey tile floor was cold underneath me, my head over the porcelain once again as a wave of nausea hit me. I sat and calculated it in my head, one month, two months, vomit again. I reached into the brown paper bag and pulled out that small box. The one that would decide my entire fate.
Oh that little plus sign haunted me. I was pregnant. By my boyfriends twin brother. Nausea threatened to win again. shit."Seph what's happening?" Gathering my things I quickly ran off the beach and into my car, Beau hot on my heels.
"Nothing, I just don't feel very well. I need to go home and lie down for a while, you want a lift?" She shook her head.
"No, Ill grab a ride with Rick later, you okay?" She winked at me making me giggle. I nodded, smiled and climbed into the jeep, slamming the door and rested my head on the steering wheel. He was here.Gray

I scrolled my Facebook, Twitter and instagram over and over searching every single comment on my post. Find Evangeline. There were a million false leads...all of which I'd wasted time following... and plenty of non starters. A comment pinged "she's a lifeguard at a beach in California, I sat next to her on the plane. I take it you're the boy she was crying over?" My heart jumped. He sat next to her on the plane, then my heart broke, she cried all the way there. "Which beach?" I rapped in furiously. "Malibu, good luck!" Oh my god. I'd found her.
"Hey hot stuff," a woman cooed from a sun lounger close to the lifeguard tower. My head snapped to see who it was, a small, brown haired, brown eyed woman smiled back. Pulling her glasses down her nose to get a better look. I laughed internally.
"Hey, I'm looking for my friend..."
"I'm Beau," she cut me off mid sentence but that didn't matter. Was this Beau?
"Grayson, I'm looking for an old friend.. Evan... Persephone, have you seen her?" Her eyes dimmed as she realised I wasn't interested
"Grayson? That name sounds so familiar!!"Beau
This man stood in front of me, easy six foot six and built like a brick shithouse. It was starting to heat up. Well apart from the fact he was looking for Persephone. I rolled my eyes.
"Grayson? That name sounds so familiar!" I thought, the name ticking over in my head.
"Do you know where she is?"
"Yeah she went home, wasn't feeling too well. We live in the apartment complex on 3rd street." Whoops maybe shouldn't have said that.
"Thanks beau!" He bent down and pecked my cheek. Fuck me he was amazing. Maybe I should go tell Sephy.Evangeline
No no no no no! He couldn't be here. It couldn't be him. Except he was.
"Evangeline!" A voice called through the halls, oh no. How the hell had he found me?!
"Evangeline!" Quickly I flew into the bedroom silently. He voice was getting quieter and quieter as he rose threw the floors. A knock on the door made me jump.
"Persephone?" Another knock except it wasn't Gray, it was Beau. "Seph? I'm coming in?" The lock clicked as her spare key opened the door. Forcing myself out of my soft sheets I walked through the hall into the living room.
"Evangeline,"Gray
I'd found her. I'd actually found her! It took every ounce of strength I had to keep myself from shoving Beau out of the way and scooping her into my arms. She didn't move. She just stared like a deer in the headlights. I looked at her beautiful face, more tanned than before, glowing. Her eyes no longer green but a deep grey, the only person I'd ever met who's eyes change colour.
"You can't be here," she whispered. Turning away from me,
"Gray! I knew I knew that name." Beau shouted, "you were planning..."
"Shut up Beau!" She yelled over the top of her, "go home both of you,"
"I'm not leaving Evangeline,"
"Who's Evangeline?" Beau looked at me quizzically,
"I am." Evangeline, still with her back to me called. "I'm Evangeline. Now leave me alone. Both of you."
"I think we should go,"
"I'm not going anywhere," I would camp outside her door but I was never leaving her again.
"Seph... Evangeline, do you want me to call the cops?" I watched as she inhaled deeply, her hands on the doorframe.
"No."
"I'm going to go,"
