Dans Pov
After she called me this morning I went to find her.
I was worried about her.

"Ro please just stay there for gods sake"

I say into the phone after she has hung up.

"Daddy! Where are you going?"

Lukas comes out of the playroom.

"Bus I'm going to look after a friend, she is in trouble"

She's always in trouble.

"Is it Ro?"

He was so curious with her.

"It doesn't matter bud"

I sighed before walking towards my car.

I dialled The Pintons' number.

"Hello, Celeara Pinton speaking"

I was surprised that someone had picked up.

"Hi Mrs Pinton"

I say hesitantly.

"Oh hello Dan, how may I help you"

He time changed immediately when she realised it was me.

"Um, sorry to be a bother but Ro called me a few minutes ago and she sounded like she was in trouble, could you possibly tell me where she is?"

I played with my keys, nervous that she would say no.

"Don't tell John I told you where she is, because he isn't in the mood for you in her life at the moment. She is in Powertown, last I heard she was staying at the Old Heaven Motel, she should be home tomorrow or so"

She sounded worried.

I'm guessing it would be the pressure of John.

"Thank you Mrs P"

I quickly hung up the phone and made my way to Powertown.

God Ro please don't do anything stupid.

------------------------------
It was late at night, I was so down when I couldn't find her.

I walked along everystreet that had a club on it.

Yet she was no where to be found.

It was surely frustrating.

"Hey there handsome"

I heard her voice say.

I look up to find her talking to a pole.

She really is drunk.

"Why won't you talk to me?"

She says to the pole again before walking away from it.

I couldnt let her get away, not again.

"Hello"

She had slurred as she saw me.

"Ro?"

I tried to picture the Ro i loved not this drunk person.

"You must be a magician if you know my name"

I couldnt imagine how she could do this to herself.

I looked at her and realised that she had gotten a tattoo.

A tattoo with Toby's name in it.

"Yeah i must be"

I sighed as she giggles at my comment.

"I'm trying to show my friend here that being ignored isn't right, its selfish"

She points at the pole as she turns around.

"Whats his name?"

I asked.

I placed my hands in my pocket afraid that i will touch her and she will be afraid.

"His name is Dan I think"

I flinched, she still hasn't gotten over me.

"My reactions exactly"

She turns away and starts to walk.

i run up to her, she wasnt going anywhere the way she was.

"Wait where are you going?"

I waited till she had turned around.

"I'm leaving Dan to try and find me, sweep me off of my feet"

She smiles as she talks, She really does still believe in us.

My heart starts to leap in circles, i still love her to.

I couldn't believe i had made the same mistake as Mike, but the difference for us is that they got a happily ever after and we didn't.

"But what if Dan doesn't want to do that?"

I had to make up some excuse to keep her here.

"Dan doesn't do a lot of things"

She whispered, Glancing back at the pole.

She was as beautiful as the sunset, she just didn't believe it.

I should have been a better boyfriend, I have failed the one thing in my life that i would fight for.

"Here why don't we just head back to your place and grab a snack or something, show Dan how much you care"

It was a crazy idea but it gave me some peace that she would be at home.

she would be somewhat safe.

"Can you lift me like i'm getting married, I want Dan to do that to me one day?"

I was stunned at her request.

She still believed that we could actually do this one day.

I wanted to do this with her.

for the first time in my life i realised that she is one of the ones in my life that is worth keeping.

I realised that she is everything i ever wanted, i wanted to marry her, i wanted us to grow old together, live in death together after raising our kids.

I wanted us to be together for eternity.

I truly realised what love is.

It was the caring of one another, growing in each others arms, catching them when they fall, It was where our hearts were connected, it showed me that she was the one who has shown me love throughout everything.

She became my everything.

"Anything for you Ro, anything for you"

I muttered, i was still thinking about what i had just realised.

"Dan is jealous of me now"

she mutters before closing her eyes whilst in my arms.

"Dan sure is jealous"

i whispered as i took her to her apartment.

-------------------------------------------------------------

As i placed her down in the bed, she stirred.

i jumped back, i didn't want her to realise it was me here.

as much as i loved her, i didn't want her to be mad at me again for my mistakes.

So instead i got the Advil ready for the morning and placed it with a little letter.

the letter had said:

'Here is for in the morning,went to tell Dan to pull his head in'


i laughed at my own little comment, Dan has definitely pulled his head in.

"Hey mum, i'm coming home tomorrow, dont worry she is fine"

I said over the phone.

I didnt spend too much time on the phone because i knew it would wake her.

Once i got off the phone i got a chair and sat by her bed.

"Hey Ro"

i whispered.

"I remember nearly a year ago, you were like this but in a hospital bed, now you are just drunk and sleeping.

I feel stupid, i messed up so bad.

I want you to forgive me.

I want us to go back to the way we were when i first found you on that car roof"


I sighed, the hospital visits i had with Ro, it was all flooding back to me.

"Dan i still love you, don't give up on me"

i flinched when she started to speak.

I wasn't sure if she was awake or asleep .

She stopped talking, im guessing she was just sleep talking.

"I know you do Ro, I haven't given up on you Ro, never will i ever give up on you like i did before."


I was getting way to emotional.

It was 3 in the morning and i really needed to leave before she wakes up.

"Goodbye my sweet Ro"

i give her a kiss on the forehead before making my way towards the car.

I knew she would be home soon.

It just gave me enough time to plan a way to sweep her off of her feet.

I wanted my Ro back and I was going to fight for her.

I was going to show her how much i cared.

How much she deserves to be happy.

How much of a D**** I really am.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

Hey guys, um so i thought that we could all maybe see if we could put our chainsaw's away, Dan may be turning out as a better one.

Who knows, Ro can now probably stop talking to Poles, um and maybe listen to Bell.

Though i really have a heart for all my characters and i cant believe we will be leaving them all soon.

Though i may chuck a chainsaw moment or a gory moment in one of these next few chapters because i just thought of it as i was writing my Authors note, cant believe im actually planning to write about this.

Just keep an eye out, but ill give you a hint, Both of these people we have wanted to use a chainsaw on before.

Though any ideas on what Dan is planning to do?

I think we may have to see how this works out.
