"I didn't know he was alive Alena I only realised when I got back it was Marcus and the fewer people who know who he is, the better. He is Adrian now, he has been since his death, or part death" 

She nods looking at me still. She walks towards me, stopping at my feet Jackson watching, she smiles up at me and I smile back, going to open my mouth as her hand hits across my face.

"Wow, okay I was not expecting that" I laugh looking at her shocked, I deserve it, yes, but it was not expected not at all.

"Shut it, right now, how the hell could you just walk away and pretend your life doesn't exist?" She stands staring at me, and I want to laugh, she looks so defiant yet so small.

"I did it every day I was alive Alena, so it didn't really change much me walking away, I would have been happier dying and them not saving me" Her hand hits me again, okay I deserved that one for sure.

"If you insist on hitting me, can we take this upstairs?" I wink at her and laugh, her hand hitting me again, Jackson stood there amused.

"Don't you dare laugh" She turns back to him, glaring at him.

"You are just as bad, not telling me when you knew all this time" She turns back to look at me and I shake my head.

"Don't blame him, he wanted to tell you, he kept asking, and I refused, I told him you couldn't know Alena, this isn't Jackson's fault" She nods staring at me, a moment passing by as she stays staring at me.

"You're really Marcus?" Her question making us both laugh.

"You better hope your arse I am, you just slapped me what, three time? I am sure that deserves a punishment of some sort" She begins to cry again, her arms wrapping around my neck.

"I'm sorry" She continues crying, my hand rubbing against her back.

"By the way, you need a new instructor, those slaps didn't hurt at all, what is this self-defense teacher doing? She laughs stepping back, still staring at me.

"What happened? Why are you here using a fake name" Jackson looks at me, and I am stuck, I didn't plan on Alena's finding out, and I certainly can't have her knowing the truth about the mission, she will be a wreck, and people will realise?

"I had died, they kept trying to get me breathing in the ambulance, somehow they managed it, I was in a coma for ages, waking up I was told I had two choices. Come back which would mean Roxy and Jake would get shorter sentences, or sign and become someone else, then they would get life" She looks at me her head slowly nodding.

"Then why are you here now?" I look at her then at Jackson, he walks over wrapping his arm around her.

"Because some idiot in my business has been smuggling drugs in, Marcus was set up here to ensure that I was not part of it, been Marcus he knew I wasn't. No one can know Alena, and no one at all can know I am back" He looks at her, and she looks confused but nods agreeing.

"Wait, did a woman really run from you?" She looks at me shocked, and I want to laugh, but at the same time, I feel awful.

"Not exactly, it is a long story, and Jackson just wanted to get a few kind words in while he could" I laugh sitting down picking up my coffee, putting it back down straight away, it is cold. 

She is stood watching, waiting for me to explain, this is not exactly what I want to explain to her.

"If you must know, Rebecca is my old brat, I went to see her, not planning anything, and she told me how she never got to say goodbye, we spilt up, but she felt she didn't get a goodbye. So things happened, and after she got ready and pretty much told me that was goodbye and walked out"
