secrets out

A/n. Double Update ;) HELLO MY LOVELY READERS, enjoy this chapter and leave a vote, comment and I'm always up for a convo :)

Charlotte's POV

I nod at him. Backing away I found he didn't move, his body solid into place, face unreadable 

'Please say something' I started crying again. I searched his face before he let out a breath it as if he had been holding it for ages. Looking into his eyes they filled with sadness yet I could feel his anger standing across the room. Freaking out I backed up until I was leaning against the wall, he looked into my eyes I felt as though the world was disappearing around us, he's all I need. 

When he still stood there staring at me I broke the eye contact and within a second I felt his warmth again wrap around me. 

'I'm so sorry I didn't say anything' I sobbed uncontrollably in his arms. 

He shifted so he could look at me 'you have nothing to be sorry for, I can't imagine what it is like to hide in the shadows' his voice kind and soft. The anger that had filled the room was gone, I felt safe in his arms snuggling back in to his chest we sat there for what seemed like forever. 

My emotions were all over the place, but one stood out love. I hadn't felt love since Jordy left, here in Mr Rivers arms I felt like I was reborn into a life I dreamed of. 

'Charlotte, Do you have anywhere to go because I will not allow you to go back to him' his words so protective but it got me thinking I can't just run away he'll find me sooner or later. 

'I have to, he will hunt me down if I don't come home Mr Rivers' he looked at me with confusion but his anger had returned 'NO, you will not go back there' he yelled. 

I jumped from his arms, backing into the corner cowering in fear. My reaction hit him hard he looked over at me is eyes filled with regret, sadness, worry 'Charlotte, I'm sorry I yelled, I just can't bare the thought of him touching you again' 

I saw a tear slide down his cheek. Slowly I made my way out of the corner but still kept a gap between us 'I have no choice' with that I left the room.

Mr Rivers POV

After I yelled at her I regretted it she jumped out of my arms and was now shaking pushing herself against the walls. Looking into her eyes I saw terror, the same terror I had seen that day in the courtyard 

'Charlotte, I'm sorry I yelled, I just can't bare the thought of him touching you again' feeling the tears fall down I let my face drop. 

I heard her move but didn't look up, as she turned the door handle 'I have no choice' I look up at her words but I was too late as I saw her retreating figure leave the building. Using the little strength I had left I got up and left the medic bay. 

Walking to my office I couldn't believe I had let her go, unlocking my office I entered. Closing the door, I sat down at my computer and my tears fell. Oh Charlotte I'm sorry I couldn't protect you but that's going to change right now, I was determined to save her to be her Knight in shining armour. 

Looking on her personal information I found her address and I was on my way. Driving down the dark streets I started searching for house numbers, when I then arrived at her house I saw that lights were still on. Making my way up to the house I knocked on the door. 

The door opened and Charlotte stood there her eyes red and puffy tears streaming down her cheeks. 'Charlotte what's wrong!'

Charlottes POV

As I walked out of school, I prepared to face what was waiting at home. Getting in my car I drove away, getting home I opened the front door and crept to my room. 

Sitting on my bed I tried to work out why I had let Mr Rivers in, why I told him everything and why he helped me. The last one I was so confused about but my thoughts were interrupted by the ringing of my Cell phone. 

Looking at it my confusion disappeared, I was filled with happiness 'Jordan!' not caring who heard me I answered the phone.

C= 'Hey Bro!'

?= 'is this Charlotte Scott?' the voice said but it wasn't Jordan

C= 'Yes this is here, who are you and why are you using my brothers phone?' I know I sounded slightly rude but I was confused

?= My name is Harrison Jacobs, I'm a doctor at Junction Hospital. An accident occurred earlier and your brother was involved.'

C= 'OMG is he okay, let me talk to him.' I was freaking out Jordan was the only one left I considered family.

H= 'I'm sorry Miss Scott he died on his way to the hospital we were unable to revive him, his last words were tell Charlotte I love her'

C= I couldn't breathe, no he wasn't gone. My eyes stung with tears 'Jordy' I cried

H= 'Is there anything I can do for you Miss Scott'

C= 'No there isn't' I had to act brave

H= 'My condolences to you and your family, Goodbye Miss Scott'

C= 'Bye'

Dropping the phone I burst into tears 'No!' I SCREAMED 'He can't be dead' 

I cried for hours, I heard someone knock at the door. Making my way down the hallway I didn't bother to dry my eyes or make myself presentable. Opening the front door I was shocked there in front of me was Mr Rivers. I let the tears fall 'Charlotte what's wrong!' his voice filled with concern as he wrapped his arms around me. 

I felt weak as I collapsed into his arms, he carried me to the couch and continued holding me 'Charlotte what happened' he kept trying to get me to talk but my tears wouldn't stop. He didn't leave he just sat let me cry and cry for hours. As my tears ran out I managed to tell him about what happened 

'M-my Brother J-Jordan was k-k-k-killed in a-an accident' Shaking as I spoke. 'He's dead, he left me like everyone else' my sobbing was out of control 

'I'm so sorry Charlotte, you're not alone, I'm here' he hushed. I felt that security in his arms, the one I had felt earlier. Removing myself slightly form his arms I looked into his eyes, love, worry, care was all I could see. 

'Thank you ahh...umm' I didn't want to call him Mr Rivers anymore I felt more for him. I think he worked out what I was thinking because he said 'Call me Kyle' with a warm smile. 

Seeing his smile my world brightened, I had never felt like this towards anyone. Was this the love I had read about in books, the one you can't imagine life without because that's all I feel when I see Kyle. 

My breathing was back to normal but my heart still shattered but rays of hope were starting to shine through. That hope was Kyle Rivers. I feel asleep in his arms, 'Goodnight Charlotte' and he kissed my head or did I imagine it, all I knew was it felt right.

A/n Ngaww Jordy's gone. Kyle was there for Charlotte, he's going to take care of her and be her knight in shining armour. Please leave a vote and comment. Lot of love :-)
