Chapter 21

Chapter 1 is up for Old Love....New Beginnnings

Check it out and leave some love...so I know if I should continue or not. I know it starts off kinda slow but I have big plans soon for it...

*** Remember Bad Guy Point of View is in Red***





It took me awhile but I found her again. I knew she would stay in the other apartment but what I hadn’t counted on was that it would take me so long to find her again. But I am close to her….I rented her old apartment I swear I can still smell her in here…it really is great.

I need to keep on track now that I found her again….I have to make her see that she should be with me not Golden boy…he really is getting in the way. But I can handle him. I need to focus on Hadley Scott….my love.

All in good time I will get what I need…All in good time.

By the time Hadley got to the door whoever was knocking was now gone…but there was a gorgeous bouquet of red roses sitting at the door. It was something she thought Sidney would do…leave the roses for her with a note. Hell he had done it before when he left that rose on her car at work. She looked down the hall to see if she could see him at all down the hall before she turned around and walked back into the apartment. Someone was watching.

She put the roses down on the coffee table in the living and looked for a note but there wasn’t one.

She decided that they had to be from Sid and the note just fell out. So she picked up her phone to call him and thank him for the flowers and hopefully they could talk and figure everything out because she missed him so much and wanted him back…

Just as she was about to hit send there was another knock on her door. Hoping it was Sid she tried to get to the door a little bit faster.

Instead of Sid it was another bouquet of roses; again she picked up the roses and looked down the hall again looking for Sid. Not seeing him he went back into the apartment to set these down as well to maybe get the guts to actually call him.

But she saw the note first…

------

Sid and the guys ended up getting everything that they needed for the party including their costumes. He was just starting to relax something he hadn’t been doing much of since Hadley left when his phone beeped signally a text.

She really misses you…you should call her. -V-

For the next few minutes Sidney held his phone in his hand. He finally hit the send button only to cancel the call before it would connect. He had no clue what he was going to say to her. He wanted her back but he thought that he needed to say more than that. They had a lot to talk about….including her being safe.

----

Hadley saw the card and got it out to read it…still having it in her head that this was all Sidney’s doing.

She looked at the card and saw “Soon my love…Soon.” written in a droopy red writing. She dropped the card and screamed while at the same time her phone started to ring.

“Hello” she said trying to stay calm.

Sidney could tell something was going on. “Hads”

“Sidney…he…knows…”

“Who knows?” he said slightly confused but got worried when there was a silence.

“Hadley”

“He knows where I am…he sent flowers” she finally was able to say.

That was all he needed hear…talking could wait he had to get to her and was out the door before he could say anything else.

“Hadley…Hads listen to me…”

“Ok” staying calm was no longer an option when she noticed she was shaking.

“Stay on the phone with me I’m on my way.”

“Ok” she said again pretty sure that was all she was capable of saying at the moment.

He tried to talk about anything he could think of to try and calm her down. All the while he was driving close to 80 mph to get to her. He didn’t care at that moment what brought them back together as long as he could get there.

She got my flowers…I saw her take them into the apartment with her. I hope she likes my note. I think I’ll wait around and see if she comes back out. I could stay her all night long. I had the perfect cover. I was in a security guard uniform. People would think that I was just making my rounds. I am so close to her but I have to keep my distance…just for awhile longer.

I bent down to tie my shoe when I felt this gust blow by me. When I looked up he was there pounding on her door. I really hate Sidney Crosby.This means the cops are gonna end up here..I should leave. He ruins all my plans....

“Hadley…Hads…Let me in baby” Sidney said into his phone and then the door opened.

He just pulled her into his arms and held her. She was shaken but she was ok.

“I’m never going to let anything happen to you. I love you. I’m so sorry for being over bearing. I just wanted you to be safe” Sidney said now crying along with Hadley.

“No I’m sorry I should have listened to you. I knew the cops had nothing yet and I still had to do things my way….I’m sorry Sidney…I love you so much” and she buried her head into his chest and just cried.

“You know we have to call Detective Smith” and Hadley just nodded as Sidney dialed the number…he had it programmed into his phone and was glad that he had done that now.

Hadley didn’t let go of Sidney the whole time the detective was there talking to her….

“ I thought that they were from Sidney. He had left flower for me like that before. I thought that we were just going to talk…until I saw this note on the second set. Sidney wouldn’t leave that kind of note…he would have delivered the second bouquet himself” she told the detective.

“We have to take the flowers…I’m sure that is ok but I still have to let you know. Hopefully we can get some kind of lead from that. Do you have anywhere you can go.”

“She is going home with me. I live in a gated community. She will be safe and there will be security around” was all that Sidney said and Hadley didn’t try to argue with him this time.

“OK.” We will have police officers around as well…we all want to catch this guy” the detective said and made his way over to his CSI crew.

Soon enough they were gone and Sidney was up trying to stay calm while Hadley pack things to go to Sidney’s house. After about an hour Hadley was ready to go and Sidney helped her down and into his car. Before too long they were back at Sidney’s house. Hadley wouldn’t leave his side so he set the alarm and went upstairs with her.

After he got her situated he got himself situated in bed. He kissed her cheek and said “One night soon it’s just gonna be you and me and a romantic night…I promise” and then try to get some sleep.
