**Bella's POV**

the next morning i woke up, my eyes were burning from crying the night before and i just wasn't in a good mood at all, i slipped out of Christian's loose grip as he was still asleep and made my way into the bathroom to shower and get changed. I ended up wearing some denim shorts and a pink tank top, then put my hair in a messy bun and put on some light makeup which consisted of a bit of mascara and lipgloss. Then i went back into my room and saw Christian, sitting up in bed smiling at me, well he was quite a morning person.

"hey" i tried to be happy and put on a fake smile but i think he saw straight through me.

"Bella" he reached his arms out to me and pulled me onto his lap

"yes?"

"mum said you can stay with us, pack some bags baby, your living with me now" he hugged me tighter and my mood lightened a bit at the thought that i do have somewhere to live, that i wont be in a home with parents and a family that i didn't know.

I jumped up and went to my wardrobe and pulled out a suitcase and started shoving all my clothes that i wear in it, then my toiletries and such until my room was bare, Christian said i can share his room and wardrobe and bathroom, seeing they were all double the size of any regular one, he'd definitely have the room for my things.

By the time all my things were packed, Christian was dressed and ready, we were down having breakfast when there was a knock on the door, the police from yesterday.

"hi" i let them in to sit down

"hello Bella, how are you?"

"im alright"

"and this is?" one of the officers asked, motioning to Christian

I opened my mouth to answer but Christian answered for me "im Christian, Bella's boyfriend" he smiled

"fair enough" the officer spoke, "so, do you have somewhere to live?" he questioned me

"yeah, actually yes i do, i was just about to leave"

"who are you living with exactly?" his eyebrows lifted the slightest bit, as if he didn't believe me

"Christian and his family" i said confidently

"hmph"

I raised my eyebrow at the officers, "what? They're nice people, his mum DOES know how to look after teenagers, seeing she has one herself..."

"right, well bye then" they got up and left, shutting the door and getting in the police car and driving away

"well that was......" Christian spoke

"awkward?" i asked

"yes, very"

"i know, they could try being a bit nicer, considering the fact i just lost my parents" i sighed, letting a few tears fall as my eyes landed on Christian, who was making his way over to me already, arms out and enveloped me in a warming hug.

"we better get going then?" he spoke after a while of silence, i pulled out of his arms, immediately feeling the cold and agreed. In about 10 minutes Christian's mum had arrived and my luggage was in the car, and i was leaving my house, for good.

"bye mum, bye dad" my eyes welled up with tears as i spoke softly to myself, to my parents, hoping nobody would hear, as we drove out the driveway of the house my parents once lived in, the last place i saw them, alive and happy.

I felt a hand grab mine and gently squeeze it, i turned to see Christian looking at me with worry in his eyes, i gave him a reassuring smile and his face lightened a bit and he pulled me into a hug, i took one last look at the place as we turned the corner, losing view, i then rested my head on Christian's shoulder as he played with my hair

"you'll be okay Bella, i'll take care of you, i promise" those words, they made me feel so much better, knowing that he would be there for me.

"i know" i smiled into his shoulder

"Bella?"

"hm?"

"i love you" i immediately felt the butterflies, the ones i felt the day we met, the time we kissed, but this time they felt 10 times stronger, i felt my heart racing at the thought, the thought that he possibly could mean this, that he really loves me?

"i mean it Bella" i looked up into his eyes, which immediately brought a smile to both of our faces, i felt myself blush.

"i love you too Christian" I snuggled further into his shoulder and he kissed my head, this moment was perfect.
