*Lorenzo's POV*

I just hit something...or someone?

Just as I was about to get out to see who I hit, the last person I expected to see sat up from the ground.

No please no. Not her.

Not miss Bloom.

Dear god! A wave of guilt hit me as I stepped out of my car. She didn't seem to be affected by the fact I just hit her with my car, she was more worried by something behind her. Nothing was there though.

"Are you ok? I'm sorry I didn't mean to hit you..."

"Where is he? Where is he?"

"What do you mean Miss Bloom, no ones here-"

"He was right behind me, talking to me, about to take me away" She then just broke down. Right in front of me. What do I do? Ask her if she's ok? No that won't work. Oh god I'm panicking.

'Hey, Stacey, come with me."

"How do you know my name? Wait that doesn't matter." She said in between sobs. "I can't go with you, he will get to Daisy. Just take me home please"

"You know I can't do that Stacey, I can't leave you here, I just hit you with my car. Come with me, now."

She wouldn't budge. "STACEY."

She slowly started to walk towards the car. I have never felt more relieved to have her under my protection. I should really be worried about who is "chasing" her, but right now all I care is that she is safe with me.

"Thankyou for this, Mr Balzano, you really don't have to. All you have to do is drop me off at my house."

"Nonsense, I just hit you with MY car while you are trying to run a way from whoever is chasing you. You're safer with me, face it. I have a personal doctor, she can check you over."

"Thankyou, though you should know I'm fine."

"Hungry? Daisy wanted a happy meal and I can't say no to her puppy eyes. Want anything?"

"I'm fine thankyou, Mr balzano"

"Please, call me Lorenzo. Also you are getting some chicken nuggets wether you like it or not." I may sound harsh, but all I want her to do is eat. She looked so pale and it worried.

Stacey nodded gratefully. Staring at her for a little bit too long, I turned around and called Mateo from my car.

"I'm just calling my friend, he will probably want something too."

Mateo then picks up the phone and his VERY annoying voice blasts through the speakers.

"Hello dickhead! What can I do for you?"

Rolling my eyes, this guy. I hear Stacey giggling beside me, I smile at her laugh.

"Pipe down Mateo, want anything from McDonald's?"

"I thought you would never ask bestie! Can I get...a Big Mac, a 20 pack chicken nuggets, two large fries, mozzarella sticks, a large coke-"

"I'll get you a large Big Mac meal and that's IT, happy Teo?"

"Fineeeeee, that will do. Daisy says hi by the way."

"Can you put her on the phone? I haven't spoken to her all day." Hearing some scuffling down the phone, I assumed she could hear me. "Hiya peta-"

"D-DADDY, WHERES MY HAPPY MEAL IM HUNGRY!"

"give me a minute Daisy! I just r-ran into someone along the way. Any who, they are coming for dinner, so make sure Uncle Teo puts away the chocolate he undoubtedly gave you before I get back, ok?"

"Yes D-daddy. Drive f-faster, I'm hungry!"

"Ok petal, see you later, I love you !" I ended the call and looked over to the beauty in the seat next to me. She has fallen asleep, it's nice to see her so calm.
