Not the same anymore

Not again

Leigh's POV

I stood there with fear coursing through my veins.

"Kitten?" Finn says worry lacing his voice. I come out of my trance and all I can feel is fear and I break down.

"Oh Finny." I say as tears run down my cheeks.

"Baby girl, what's wrong?" Tristan asks.

"I'm not going to live through this, he'll get me." I say with fear.

"Why do you say that?" Colin questions concerned kneeling in front of me. I look up at them all

"Look in the box." I say shakily. Tristan gets up and looks at the contents of the box and he pales.

"Mark you need to see this now." Tristan says trying to stay calm.

"I need to call this in." Mark says and walks away.

"What's in the box?" Logan asks worried.

"Black roses pictures of her sleeping, pictures of her family and her together, their obituaries, and a note that says 'your mine, you have been since college.'" Tristan says.

"It's not Jess." I manage to say through tears as Logan comes to me and kneels in front of me stroking my cheek.

"Why do you say that?" He queries with concern.

"Logan, I dated Jess in high school. When he hurt me, he said 'You've been mine since high school' not college." I say snuggling into Finn's side further.

After a few minutes I know what I have to do. I was strong, I was not going to let this get to me. I'm going to go into the office and work. I stand up and leave the room.

Finn's POV

I look at Tristan and Paris and nod.

"This isn't good." I say.

"Why?" Honor asks confused.

"The last time she did this, she blocked out everything emotional. All she did was work and that's when she broke down with Finn." Paris says shaking her head.

"What can we do?" Logan asks concerned.

"I don't think there is anything we can do." I say with tears.

"We can't have her go back to what she was." Colin adds with tears starting to stream down his face.

"Her parents and what happened with Jess its going to happen again." Steph says with tears.

Before we could say anything Leigh walks out from downstairs and out the front door. The next thing we hear is the car start and speed away.

"Tris, get your parents here now, yours too Colin." I say my voice thick with tears.

"What about our parents?" Logan asks.

"It's up to you." Paris answers. We all make the calls and I call Dad and leave him a message.

I was really worried about Leigh. Who knows what will happen next but I was terrified for her.

"Where'd Austin and Mark go?" Honor asks.

"They probably followed her to make sure that she's safe." Paris answers.

Leigh's POV

I made my way to the office and got situated. I looked through my email to see if anything was important. When that was done I looked out my window and thought about my life.

I grabbed my stuff and headed out. I was going to do something that would ease my mind. I decided to get a tattoo of a heart with wings on my lower back or hip.

When I was on  my way out I ran into Austin and Mark. "Where are you going?" Austin asked.

"Tattoo shop." I say.

"I'll go with you in your car. Mark go back to the house and tell them what's going on." Austin says.

Mark's POV

I made it back to the house and walked in. "Yo where you guys at?" I yelled into the house.

"Living room." I hear them yell. I walk to the living room and sit down heavily on the sofa.

"Where's Austin and Leigh?" Tristan asked me concerned.

"Tattoo shop." Was all that needed to be said.

"I made some calls. I'm getting the system updated and make sure the panic room is working properly." I said.

"That's good. We don't need her to get kidnapped again or attempt of one." Tristan said.

"What? Kidnapped?" Logan shrieked.

"Yeah shortly after her inheritance she was almost kidnapped." Colin says.

"So she has this stalker and Jess harassing her?" Honor asked. She wanted to make sure she had the right information.

Leigh's POV

After my tattoo was done Austin and I went to the cafe next door for some coffee.

"What do you think of my new tattoo?" I asked curiously.

"I love it. Heart and wings." He says pulling me close.

I immediately stop dead in my tracks and pale.

"Angel what's wrong?" He asked concerned.

What made Leigh stop? Why did she pale? The fear  of Jess and her stalker is indeed warranted. They are closer than she thinks.
