Liam's POV: 

Xander and I woke up with a start when Belle started screaming. 

"Stay here." He told me and got right into action.

He's matured a lot since Belle came back. 

He was so hot headed that he would blow up all the time. 

I heard some other doors opening and closing and I went out to see everyone sitting in the hall looking nervous and on edge. 

Do they do this every night?

I sat against the wall with the rest. 

Luca was sitting next to me with his head in his hands. 

Ian Had his hand on Luca's shoulder

Her screams echoing down the halls. 

"Belle it's ok. You're safe here. I got you. It's ok." 

Her screams turned more frantic and panicky before they suddenly stopped. 

No one moved. 

I looked around and everyone's had at least a few tears running down their cheeks. 

"This was a bad one." Ian muttered. 

"Yeah." Enzo said. 



The next morning Belle wasn't downstairs like she usually was. 

They said she hasn't come out of her room yet. 

Everyone was pretty worried. 

Around 1PM Xan made his way up to her room and convinced her to come down for her tea. 

She opened the cabinet and the box of tea was empty. 

Fuck. 

She just turned around and bonked her head into Xan's chest and he gave her a hug. 

She started to cry a little bit. 

"I'm sorry." She whispered. 

"Kid, what could you possibly have to be sorry about?" Xan asked swaying side to side with her still in his arms. 


"I'm not what you want me to be like..."

"Isabella. You are a Romano. You are kind. You are thoughtful. You are you, so how could I want anything else?" Xan said and everyone was so shocked.

"Ok.." She said. 

"Now let's go to the store and get some tea, and come back and watch a movie."

"Yes please.."
