"i'm so sorry, baby." Liz whispered to Belle who threw her arms around her mother holding onto her.

"i just want things to be how they used to." Belle mumbled into her mothers shoulder, Liz kissed her temple running her fingers through her hair.

Zale gently smiled at his family as Noah pulled him into the hug kissing the top of his sons head.

"alright. here's what we're gonna do." Noah cleared his throat, Belle looked at him wiping her eyes resting her head on her mothers shoulder, "no more bullshit. it's us four only and it always will be from now on. the shit with Ward is done with and it has been for a while now, but we do need to figure out some sort of punishment for taking the truck."

"and never let Pope drive again, or JJ or John B. better yet never let any of the boys drive because something always happens with some sort of vehicle they drive." Zale said causing his family to laugh.

"JJ's actually a great driver." Belle chuckled wiping away her tears.

"he still has that bike?" Noah asked.

"dad, he's technically married to the bike." Zale said as Belle nodded.

"interesting okay." Noah nodded.

"why don't you guys spend the night here? we'll show you your rooms and later we can have a late dinner." Liz says, running her fingers through Belle's hair.

"i think that's great." Belle smiled at her mother who smiled and lead her upstairs to her room.

Belle laid in the bed in her room in some comfortable clothes her mom had given her reading one of the books she had found in the library, she rested her head on her hand when her phone began to ring. shutting the book she reached for it on the nightstand seeing the contact picture of her and JJ smiling widely as he kissed her cheek. quickly sitting up she answered the call hearing him shushing the Pogues.

"J?" she asked.

"hey, Bells." he says as the noise from the others faded.

"hi."

"you okay? i wanted to check on you." she smiled at his voice.

"yeah. i'm at my parents now." she laid back down looking at the ceiling.

"what room?" he asked.

"mine? i think it's mine now, why?" she furrowed her brows listening to him.

"by any chance is the lamp grey with a white light?" Belle looked at the lamp seeing it was the one he was talking about.

"yes.. what are you-"

"climbing up." JJ hung up the phone as Belle slowly sat up hearing the leaves moving, making her stand up from the bed rushing over to the balcony door opening it.  

"hey Bells." JJ grunted climbing over the fence smiling at her.

a smile formed on her face laughing lightly walking over to him throwing her arms around his neck hugging him tightly as JJ immediately wrapped his arms around her waist pulling her in closer.
