Anna"s POVAfter my talk with Ava, I"ve been more on edge ever since. Thomas basically forced her to move into his room after Ava almost dies. So now it"s just Cam, the boys, and me living by each other now. I haven"t got any sleep because of the noises from Cam and Adrian at night and just worrying about myself. I"m heading to clean Mathews"s room when I pa.s.sed Thomas"s room. I saw Ava curled up into Thomas while eating ice cream. I could hear the tv going and the poor show Ava is making him watch. I silently laughed and continued on my way. Before I reached could even knock he opened the door.
"Anna!" His hair was a mess and his clothes were all wrinkled. Before I could say anything he dragged me into his room. His was similar to Thomas but blue and silver.
"I want you moving in."
"Huh," I replied extremely flabbergasted.
"I don"t feel comfortable with you out of my sight." He ran a hair through his hair. He was nervous.
"Okay?" He smiled at the thought of me moving in. Before I had time to process what was happening his lips were on mine. I gasped at the sudden contact which allowed him to enter his tongue in. Our tounges fought for dominance. Obviously, he won.
"We never did finish what we started." He whispered seductively in my ear. My breathing hitched as he planted kisses down my neck. I moaned when he found me a sweet spot. His lips reattached to mine in a fiery kiss. "I love you."
"I love you too." And I meant it. In the short period of time I was here I fell for him. And I fell hard.

I woke up to sunlight shining through the curtains. I quickly sat up realizing where I was. I quickly pulled the sheets back up when I realized I was naked. I looked over to see a sleeping Mathew also naked. Oh s.h.i.t.
"Morning." He groggily said.
"Morning," I replied embarra.s.sment suddenly hitting me. An alarm clock went off and Mathew simply just crushed it without touching it.
"Why did you do that?"
"Because it was annoying." I just sighed just thinking of how he can do that to any metal.
"Come back to bed." He murmured as he buried his face in the pillow. I heaved another sigh and came back to bed. He pulled me right against his chest and we fell right back to sleep.

Ava"s POV
I was literally just walking around wondering where I should go. I decided to venture out of the castle for some fresh air. I slowly but surely started walking around a park. Then I saw them. My dad and my stepmother having a baby shower. It still hurt. He always wanted a son and now he"s getting one. n.o.body noticed me or so I thought. I started walking away before someone tapped my shoulder. I turned around to come face to face with my grandmother.
"I missed you, Ava!" Tears falling down her wrinkled face. I was the firstborn grandchild. I was over almost every day at her and my grandpa"s house.
"I missed you too!" I said hugging her tightly.
"Just know I"ll always be here for you Ava." She mumbled in my hair.
"I know," I mumbled back.
"I should get going." My voice was barely audible. We didn"t let go until I finally pulled back. She wiped away my tears and kissed my forehead.
"I"ll visit you and grandpa. I promise."

I walked into the castle my eyes red and puffy. My eyes dry from how much I"ve cried in the past two days. I b.u.mped into Belle.
"He Av-" I didn"t let her even finish.
"Where"s your mother." She must have seen the sadness clearly written on my face before she pointed in a direction. I quickly thanked her and ran off. I found the Que-Elara sitting at the long dining room table.
"I want to talk to Child Services."
She looked up at me and set her book she was reading down and gave me a confused look.
"I need to tell them something." I continued.
"Are you sure? These people did try to take you away."
"Yes. I"m done staying silent."
A/N: I literally cried writing the end.
