_____________________________
Winnie's POV
I walk down the hallway slowly and quietly as I hear Karen and Rachel downstairs.
"Where the hell does she have it?" she says loudly as I hear them walking around searching for it. I feel my heart pounding as I quietly walk down the hall. I stop infront of a door and slowly turns the handle attempting to keep quiet.
"I swear..." I mutter to myself as it stays locked. I furrow my eyebrows wiggling the knob on the door in frustration. I sigh as I pull a bobby pin from my hair, getting on my knees picking the lock.
"What are you doing?" a soft whisper says causing me to jump. I turn my head glaring at Clifton as he looks at me sheepishly.
"Sorry." he whispers as I sigh in relief.
"I'm trying to pick the lock open." I mutter shaking lightly, turning it in the keyhole. It clicks softly and I smile in satisfaction opening the door quietly as we slip in the room.
I look around seeing screens around the room showing footage of the rooms.
"Woah. She's all set up..." Clifton says in awe looking around at the secruity system.
"I know...she probably got the security thing from Michael." I say as I brush a lock of hair behind my ear. I look up at the tv screen seeing Rachel and Karen walking down a hallway. I walk over to the system, getting on my knees searching for the VHS box.
(A/N Seriously if you don't know what a VHS tape is....you obviously aren't a 90's kid. Those were the bomb.)
"Hurry up..." Clifton says as I look around for it.
"Just shut up blockhead, and help me find it." I whine shakingly as he groans looking around for it.
"Hold on...." I say finding a secruity footage box. I hit the EJECT button, the tape popping out.
"I got it.." I whisper as I I jump up my hair tossled everywhere, with the tape in my hand.
"Let's get out of he--" Clifton begins to say and gets cut off by the door swinging open. Our heads shoot up meeting Rachel and Karen's dark eyes.
We are so dead.
Paul's POV
I take a sip of my drink my fingers tapping the glass lightly, waiting for Michael.
I've tried everything to let Tatiana know I was sorry. I've called her nonstop, I've sent flowers, letters, and everything you can think of. Yet, she still won't talk to me.
I shake my head angrily taking another sip. How could I betray her like that? Why?
"You shouldn't have listened to her father." I think to myself as I take a quick shot. If it wasn't for me having this meeting with Michael, I'd plan to get very drunk right now.
And now Rachel....
*flashback*
"Paul.." she says leaning against the desk crossing her arms.
"No, Rachel. As much as I hate Michael, at this point...I'm not in it." I say throwing my hands up angrily as I walk down the hall.
"Paul, I'm doing this for you. Why would I let him have another chance to take her away from you?" Rachel says putting a hand on my shoulder as I shake it away. "I can't stand to see my baby brother heart aching like this..." she says giving me an innocent look in a fake sensitive tone.
"You're not doing this for me, Rach. You're doing this for yourself." I say shooting her a look. "And I would like to knock Michael out too, but even I wouldn't do that bullshit to him. I wouldn't do that to Tatiana..." I swallow hard looking down.
She loves him.
"So you're going to be a little bitch and let them walk all over you?" she smirks. I shoot my head up angrily grabbing her arm tightly as I walk down the hall. I throw open the door, angrily.
"Paul--" she starts to say.
"Get out, and don't you fucking come back." I growl as I push her out slamming the door. I lock it and runs a shakey hand through my hair.
*End of flashback*
I look down at my glass and glances my eyes up. I see a waiter coming up to me with Michael. I raise my eyebrow slightly.
If it wasn't for his familiar eyes, or me knowing he was going to be in disguise. I wouldn't have recognized him at all. He has on a mustache, completed with fake sideburns and fake teeth. He even has this mini afro thing going on.
Trust me, if I had the energy I would be laughing my ass off.
"Can I get you anything sir?" the waiter asks Michael as he shakes his head quietly before sitting down across from me.
"No thank you." he says in a hoarse whisper as the waiter walks away. I sit back slowly as Michael stares at me. More like glaring....
"So I'm guessing you want to know why I brought you here?" I say as his eyes continue burning angrily in mine.
"I'm here to talk to you about, Tatiana." I say coldly. "And this regards you're safety."
"What my business with her is not your concern." Michael says chuckling in annoyance.
"Not my concern?" I say as he chuckles. "It was my concern when you left her heartbroken, pregnant and in a fucking hospital bed. It was me who was doing your god damn responsibilities while you were--"
"Responsibilities?" Michael spats in disbelief, a flash of hurt in his eyes. "You're right. What I did to her was wrong, and I'll live with that for the rest of my life. I thank you for taking care of her when I did not. But what I will not thank you for is when you tried to take over my responsibilites when she was mine. You knew what the fuck you wanted, and you need to know your place." he says angrily.
"My place?!" my eyes widen and I almost choke. "You're damn right, I took over your responsibilites on caring for her. Because I knew you were incapable in the beginning. Which is why I swear to god, if you come near her again--"
"Then I'll keep coming, and I won't stop." Michael says getting up angrily.
"I'm saying if you come near her again, there will be danger for you." I say glaring in his eyes.
"Is that a threat?"
"Not by me." I say looking down at my drink. "By my sister, Rachel."
"Rachel?" Michael says as his head darts up in shock.
"Come near Tatiana again....and I promise, she's going to come after you." I say getting up grabbing my jacket. "And this is me warning you....as a friend." I say as Michael glares at me.
Michael's POV
I grip the steering wheel as I furrow my eyebrows. There is no way, I will ever stay away from Tatiana. So what if Rachel spreads more things to the tabloids?
But Paul and Rachel? Related?
I shake my head closing my eyes for a second. I just seem to keep getting in crazy situations, over this girl.
And Tatiana is worth every second of it. She's the only one, I'd do anything for.
I swallow hard as I keep driving thinking of Paul's warning.
"What if he's saying this to keep you away from Tatiana?" I think quietly to myself. "I can't leave her. I love her, and if I ever get to hold her again...I'm never letting her go. I'm going to love her forever and I'm going to be hers and she will be mine."
I think about the night she first spent over. Her falling asleep in the movie theater, and I stole a kiss. All the times we held eachother, made love, and were together. I smile lightly staring at the road driving back to Neverland.
3rd person's POV
Winnie swallows hard feeling her heart racing out of her chest.
"Well it looks like our work was done for us..." Rachel smiles as Clifton's breath hitch. Both kids look past Rachel's shoulder as feeling their hearts sink. There is no way they can make a break for it. Rachel and Karen are blocking the way.
"Now why don't you hand that over...." Rachel nods to the tape in my hand. "Before someone get's hurt?" she smiles and cocks her head to the side gently. "And you know I don't want to hurt you Winnie..." she says as Winnie stays silent in total fear, and afraid to show it.
As for Clifton his hand was fidgiting behind his back opening the latch of the window behind them slowly. As he opens it, it makes a soft click making Rachl flash his attention to him.
Clifton pushes a shelf in front of them knocking it down fast, papers flying everywhere, and quickly pushes open the window.
"Winnie jump!" he yells as Winnie jumps out. It was a somewhat far fall, considering it was one story up. As Winnie jumps out, she lands the wrong way on her side hurting her arm. She closes her eyes and winces in pain.
"Get back here!" Rachel yells lunging at Clifton. She lunges at him and his glasses fall off. He pushes her hard and jumps out the window fast. He lands on his feet almost perfectly stumbling lightly and helps Winnie up as she winces in pain the tape clutched to her chest.
"Run!" he yells as they dash into a fast out of Tatiana's estate.
Our feet hit the ground hard as we run fast. As they run through Tatiana's garden to run out her estate, they slow down as they reach a street corner.
"A-are you alright?" Clifton asks breathing heavy looking at Winnie. Winnie winces in pain and looks down at her arm.
"I-I think I--" she begins to say and her words are immediately cut off by a loud screech. There was Rachel and Karen in their car speeding after them.
"Come on!" Clifton yells grabbing Winnie by her waist as they dart in a fast run the car chasing them. Their hearts race in fear as they keep running. As Winnie runs with Clifton by her side she sees incoming traffic. She grabs Clifton's hand and they dart across the street cars screeching to stops, and horns honking.
"Shit!" Rachel yells as she watches the kids run disappearing from her sight. "Those fucking brats!" she yells hitting her steering wheel in anger.
"What are we going to do know?" Karen asks looking over at Rachel as she breathes heavy.
"They are all going down." Rachel says her eyes dark. "Once and for all."
