Violet's POV:

It's been a bit more than three weeks since I've last seen Blake.

I talked to Jacob and Alex everyday, they never spoke about him. I went out with Silvia and worked with her. And then... I got to know Christian.

Christian is a great guy, he's sweet and smart and actually cares about me, he shows it. He often brings me flowers and compliments me every time he has the chance to. He's making me happy.

And now I'm talking to Silvia, telling her the big news. Not so big but they're still big.

"He asked me to be his girlfriend!" I shout, happiness in my voice. I earn a chuckle from her "Oh dear God! Congratulations! I really hope this will work, Violet. You deserve it" she says and my heart melts.

I've never had a man caring so much about me. I mean yes, I've had boyfriends before, but they weren't like him. None of them did the things he's doing. Do I call this love? Or is it just a distraction? It's too early to call it love, for sure.

After ending the phone call with Silvia, I take a shower.

Hot water running down my body, I shut my eyes and just stay there. I wonder what my mother would say right now.

She would probably make a whole speech about boys being heartbreakers, and I know she'd be right, but they aren't all the same. There are a few exceptions, I hope Christian is one of them.

After I'm all washed up and done, I put on a pot of shorts and a jumper, and reach my lovely living room.

I take the box from the chair and sit on my couch, ready to read a few other letters.

Letter fourth

Hello, if you're reading this then it means I haven't already thrown away my book-box. I call it book-box because inside of it, there's everything I personally wrote.

Even tho I don't know if future me will be reading this: if you actually are, how's life Violet? Did you meet a man who made you feel safe? How's family?

I pause, the last question made my heart break a little. How's family? Well, old Violet, family is broken. It fell apart a while ago. But it's okay, you couldn't know, could you?

Anyways, I need someone to dance with me. I want to dance with the love of my life in a italian club, till 4 am. I also need someone to look at me the way Klaus looks at Caroline, they're so cute. And if you aren't me and you're reading this, and you hate Klaroline, well don't talk to me. Klaroline is my favorite ship.

I'm still wondering if you're holding this letter Violet, if you're reading it for the first time in forever. If you are, I hope that you're doing great.

Bye love.

I'm embarrassing myself by reading these letters, but I had nothing to do, so.

Letter fifth

I've been sick this whole week. It was awful, I'm sparing you the details, but just know it was bad.

My mom always gives me strawberries and blueberries when I'm feeling sick. She came into my room a few minutes ago and gave me a bowl full of them, with a glass of apple juice, too.

I love her. Not because she did this. Because she never failed to be a mother to me. She never made me upset or angry, she always brings a smile on my face and makes sure chuckles come out of my mouth.

Mom, if you ever find this, I'm sorry for being an awful daughter to you. You really deserve so much and I'm trying to become that, I really am. I promise you, I will give you happiness when you need it.

With love, Vi.

I forgot one of the letters talked about my mother. Tears formed in my eyes, as I remember all the joy my mom brought around her. She was like magic.

I don't find other letters in the box, so I guess I didn't write more than five. I want to write.

Old Violet wrote to future Violet, now I can write to my old self and tell everything that's happened.

I grab paper and pen and start writing down my thoughts.

-Future Violet to Old Violet-

Hi Vi, are you still in there?

I kept the letters, I read them again.

And let me tell you, a lot has changed since the last letter.

Remember when you asked about family? I'm afraid you won't like my answer, but it all fell down. Mom died. Dad became an alcohol addict and I don't see him anymore and... brother, he isn't around anymore.

I work in a club, owned my a really hot man. But don't get excited, he's a dick. The dick's name is Blake. He actually tried to get in my head and then left for Italy. I really hate him and he hates me too, gladly.

I have a new bestie, his name's Alex. It's actually Alessandro but everyone calls him Alex. Alex is an amazing human being, yeah he works for the Italian mafia but he's a wonderful person. I mentioned the mafia, but it's a damn long story.

And I've met a guy. He is kind, sweet, caring and has a beautiful smile. I don't know if I should tell you about him, yet.

Silvia has a boyfriend too, his name is Jacob. Jacob is Blake's brother but isn't like him fortunately. I love their relationship, kind of hoping Christian's and mine will be like that too.

These are the big news, Vi. Do you like them?

I fold the paper into the box and put it away as soon as I'm done writing. It felt good, writing down all those things, it was like getting rid of some stress. Even tho I didn't exactly write my thoughts, the thoughts that devour me and never let me sleep peacefully.

My door bell rings and I reach the front door, opening it wide when I see it's Christian. He smiles at me and throws his hands around me, hugging me.

"Damn, you missed me" I chuckle and he hums in response. "Didn't you?" He asks pulling away, still smiling. "Mm I'm not sure" I smirk and he grabs me and walks inside, closing the door and reaching the living room. He throws me on the couch and attacks me with kisses, trying to make me laugh. In which he's succeeding.

"We should go out to dinner at Aurora Hotel, there's a restaurant in there. Alex will be our waiter!" I say while laughing as he continues to kiss me.

"Anything you ask dear" he says getting up, my skin feels wet from his kisses and I smile. We get ready for dinner, I put on a pair of black jeans and a white top, which was very cute. Christian wore a pair of jeans and a sweatshirt, his outfit was cute.

We arrive at Aurora Hotel and reach Alex, who was serving at a table. He gives us a smile when he notices our presence. Alex was really happy about me and Christian, even tho him and Jacob seemed weird since I've started dating Christian. I guess I'll have to shrug that feeling off.

We sit and Alex takes our orders, of course he wanted to be our personal waiter. Like I already knew.

The whole evening goes well, I think I've never laughed so hard in my life. That's what Christian does to me, he makes me laugh. He brings happiness, just like my mom used to do.

We pay and tell Alex goodbye, before driving off to my house. Christian was going to spend the night at mine, and I was really nervous about it. Don't ask why, you already know.

I unlock the door and he closes it behind us, we then walk towards my bedroom. "Can I take a shower?" he politely asks and I nod "Of course, don't even ask. I'll find you some clothes while you shower" I give him a smile and he kisses my cheek before entering my bathroom and closing the door, starting the water.

I open my closet in hopes to find a pair of shorts and an oversized t-shirt.

I hear a buzz and think it's my phone. I check my phone but I have no notifications, it must be Christian's.

Nope, I'm not checking, not my business.

As I continue searching I hear another buzz and I can't help but looking. I'm sorry I know it's wrong, I know.

I reach his phone, which is on my nightstand and open the two messages from a number I don't know.

"Did you sedate her?" "Remember. Boss wants her by tomorrow and if you want your girlfriend alive you better bring the target in time."

My heart skips a beat. Is this in my imagination? Am I dreaming?

I pinch my skin, and as I feel the pain I realise this is real.

I drop his phone on my bed and quickly grab some stuff, panting around. I put all the things in my book-box and place the box in my car. I take my keys and drive away from my house, my hands shaking on the wheel.

It was getting hard to breathe. It was getting hard to focus on the road. Where am I going? I can't escape, can I?

I think about the messages, 'Boss' it said. It wasn't Blake, he's an asshole but he wouldn't dare to do that. Was it Sebastian? Was he still following me? This feels like a loop.

What hurts the most is that Christian was just pretending. What if I didn't find out? What if he got out of the shower and sedated me, kidnapped me and took me to Sebastian? Wow.

I pull over and breathe in. Breathe out. In and out, again and again. Until I'm finally breathing properly and I take my phone, calling him. The only one who hates me enough to save me, that hates me enough to actually care, Blake.

Tears running down my cheeks, Christian should be out of the shower now. He may be looking for me, he won't find me there.

Blake picks up almost immediately, thank you. I instantly speak "Blake? I'm sorry I wasn't going to call you but, something happened and I-" I really did try to keep myself together, but it was too much. Too many things at once, a sob escaped my mouth.

"Violet what happened? Are you okay?" I can hear the worry in his voice, while I'm turning to a crying mess, sobbing and shaking.

"No" was all I could say, before he tried to calm me down "Okay, Violet? I need you to calm down and tell me what's happening. Calm down for me Violet" he says and I try to get my shit together, drying my tears with my hand and breathing normally again.

"Sebastian is back." I manage to say and he sighs, cursing in italian. We're in a big mess.

"Ucciderò quello stronzo con le mie mani, te lo prometto." He speaks in italian, before speaking again "Violet, go to the mansion right now. Tell Jacob everything while I get a flight to Italy ready for you. You're staying with me." He states and I don't say anything, what could I say? After all, I have nobody else to help me.

("I'll kill that fucker with my hands, I promise you.")

I drive to the mansion like I'm fucking racing and the guards let me enter when they recognize me. I park the car and speed inside, running to Jacob's room and calling out his name. His door opens and he greets me, hugging me when he sees the tears I dried on my face.

"It's okay little one, we're not turning our back on you." he reassures me and tears spill out of my eyes again, I really thought Christian was that into me.

He pulls away and his phone rings, he answers and quickly speaks with the other person, before putting his phone back down and looking at me. "The flight is ready. Silvia, Alex and I will reach you guys next week." he states and I nod, he doesn't know how grateful I am to all of them.

__________

I flew on a private plane, the Ferreri's jet. And I was finally in Italy. Blake was waiting for me at the airport.

As I walk down the jet's stairs I see three black cars, Blake coming out from the one in the middle.

I stop when I see him, he looks at me, the wind slightly moving his hair. I walk to him and look up at him.

"Get in the car." he demands. He was angry, like usual. But I wasn't in the mood to argue with him, not now.

He tells his guards to get in the other cars. He gets in the driver's seat while I'm in the passenger's one.

We don't talk the whole ride, tho the tension in the air is so thick you could cut it with a knife.

We're finally entering his estate, it's beautiful. Bigger than his mansion in LA and prettier. Ugh, italian style.

We get out of the car and I follow him inside, as I get in I look around: the ceiling was probably more than 60 feet from me, a few plants around the hall and beige walls. Beautiful if you ask me.

As I'm lurking around I realize Blake isn't here anymore. I turn around in hopes to see him, but nothing. Why was he so pissed off?

Well, shit.

Hi reader!

Christian is a back-back-back stabber. What is he doing after this?
