The following night, Chris and I stay at a five-star resort in Puerto Banus, allowing the lads to have a free night to do what they want. All I demand of them is that our bedroom remain completely and utterly off limits. They are not to bring any girls in there. Period. Apart from that, they can do what they want. Well, within reason, of course.

After a night in the hotel where I am treated like a queen and have one of the best views of the Mediterranean, Chris and I are on better terms. He’s happy that we’re now back on track, but my heart still aches, the torture of my thoughts threatening to drown me. Knowing that we are on the way back to England today doesn’t help ease my mind either.

“Fancy a beer?” Chris asks, offering a bottle to me. I shake my head, and he places it on the table before taking a seat next to me on the deck. The sun is warm, my face to the sky as I take in the last rays. The lads are listening to music, drinking and prancing about the place like lads on holiday do.

“I don’t want to go back,” Chris says, interrupting my thoughts.

I stare out into the endless sea. We’ve only been travelling on the water for around an hour, Michael’s capable hands at the wheel. “I don’t want to go back either,” I admit, but for difference reasons than him.

“One day, baby. One day very soon this could all be ours permanently.”

I sigh, leaning my back against his chest, his arms surrounding me. “Not too soon, though, with your supplier dying on you and you having to wait until his brother takes over.”

If I’m honest with myself, I’ve been partly relieved but also partly scared of this fact. Relieved that it will take longer, but also scared that it just gives my past a better opportunity to catch up to me.

“Don’t you worry about that, babe. Things have a habit of working out. Which reminds me,” he says, pulling away for a moment before delving his hand into his short’s pocket. I swivel my position so I’m facing him more, intrigued to see what he has for me. He lifts it up, dangling a silver chain with a small key attached to it.

“I need you to promise me you’ll wear this at all times.”

I frown at his request. “What is it?”

“It’s a key to a locker at Green Park Station. If something were to ever happen to me…”

“Chris, I don’t like where this is going,” I interrupt, scared all of a sudden. Why this? Why now?

“Shh, listen to me, Bri. This is fucking important. I’m not planning on going anywhere, believe me, but if something does happen, I want you to promise me you’ll drop everything and head to Green Park. The locker number is 316, and inside it is a fake passport, credit cards, and enough cash to keep you going for a while. Can you remember the number, Bri? 316.
