"I need to keep you safe! I can't just let him show up and take you away from me, Jack! You don't understand."

Bella lifted her gaze to study him then

"I understand more than you think." He told her. "I can't lose you to him."

"Lose me to him? You won't lose me to him.. How would that happen?"

"You don't know what my brother is like."
______

"Uh, yeah?" One of the guys told her. "Don't worry if you didn't get the joke, Kovu has a strange sense of humour."

She exhaled slowly, turning to rest her forehead against his lightly. "But I can't lose you Dracula. You said it yourself that he doesn't like you because you tricked him, now he's here for revenge? All I have to do is let him... Then we'll know. Then we dont loe each other."

"Oh.." Bella whispered. "Sorry."

"What if I'm not willing to let you?"

"No. I'm angry at you and you aren't a scared stowaway." Wyatt muttered.

Bella shifted her weight a little uncomfortably.

"Well then take your anger outside." She told him.

He kissed her back.

"I'm surprised kids are allowed on this boat... Isnt it dangerous?" Bella whispered

He shrugged. "Some families can't live on land, my sister told them to bring them, she hates family being split."

"And those two?" She motioned to Wyatt and Rico.

"Amoras family, her boyfriend and his son." He told her watching them.
