Aww Kris is so sweet.
At least Jess admitted part of it, but she should tell him everything.

If it's one thing I hate then it's seeing Jess upset. I've always been protective of her, even when she left for two years and people were going on about her, i'd always fight her corner. For me, it just seems right and it just comes so natuarally to me so I don't even have to think about it.

Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww omg I was really preparing myself to get REALLY mad lol but it was actually really sweet
The way Kris feels about her and just wants to protect her so much is lovely
I know she wasnt exactly completely honest with him but well Daniel did basically tell her that Kris would leave her....now he's just gonna be even more protective over her though and she really ought to tell someone, she shouldnt and doesnt have to deal with this alone...

As angry as i've gotten reading the last few posts lol i really do love this fic and cant wait for all this mess to be sorted out so it can get soppy again

love this and you xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

getting there, but still not quite...!
L-O-V-E IT!

I agree with everything that Lianne said, I was ready to be annoyed by Daniel some more but I'm glad he wasn't in that part. but erm yeah everything she said.

Looking forward to the next part Heather xxx

Brilliant, as always

Jess' POV

Things are just getting worse and worse. I managed to stop Kris from going into work this morning but I know I can't do that everyday, he's going to have to go in tomorrow and what if he bumps into him? I know what Daniel is like now and he'll stir things for me and Kris. That's the last thing I want, especially as we've been getting on so well. I can't help but think of Kris' reaction if he found out I was lying to him, we've always promised not to keep things from each other, yet here I am lying to him now. I don't know how I can live with myself. Everyone is so happy, the kids are great, Kris is happier than i've ever seen him even though for the last few days he's done nothing but worry about me. I can see it in his face everytime I look at him, he's worried about me and I don't want him to be but I can't tell him as I don't want him to get hurt.

Feeling that someone needs to be told I turn to Zoe. Even I know Kris should be the first person I turn to, but I know Zoe and I know she'll tell me what's best. I can trust her not to say anything until I decide what's right.

As she places two mugs of coffee on the table, I place my hands around mine to gain it's warmth.

"Jess, are you ok? It's not you and Kris is it?"
"No..." I reply sadly. "He's been great Zo but..."
"What's going on, you aren't in trouble are you?"
"I...I just don't know what to do anymore..."

I breakdown in front of her, as much as I tried not to I couldn't hold them back and now she seems more worried than ever.

"Jess, what's going on? Has something happened..."
"It's Daniel, he's back here Zo and he's...well he's..."
"Daniel?!" She shouts, and i'm glad Zak's took Katy out. "As in Daniel who was in Spain?"
"Yeah..."
"Oh my god, does Kris know? What's he doing here anyway?"
"He's making threats." I say calmly. "Says he needs money to get away from here, because he's in trouble."
"So let him be in trouble! He'll be in even more trouble when Kris finds out!"
"I don't know if I should tell Kris..."
"What do you mean you don't think you should tell him? Of course you should Jess, you can't lie to him..."
"I have been for the last two days!" I snap back feeling frustrated. "I don't want him getting hurt, who knows what will happen."
"And Kris won't want you getting hurt. He's so protective of you and the kids, you know that.He's been really worried about you.."

"I know." I reply tearfully. Feeling the guilt again. "But i'm scared though, what if Daniel really hurts him?"
"He wouldn't.The longer this goes on the more Kris is going to be angry for not telling him in the first place."
"And what if Kris does something stupid?"
"Like what? Knock Daniel into next week? That's not stupid Jess, that makes sense. He can't just come along and threaten you..."
"He said last night he isn't alone though, so that means he has others."
"That's just rubbish, he only wants you to think that."
"I had to lie to him this morning. Tell him that someone said I was going to lose him..."
"And did he believe it?" She questions.
"Yeah, I think so. I feel so horrible, I hate lying to him Zo. I always tell him everything and now he's going to be angry with me."
"He won't be." She says.
"How do you know?"
"Cos I know how much Kris loves you. He could never be angry with you, you know that."
"What, even when i've lied to him like I have?"
"He won't mind, he'll just feel better knowing that you told him and that you're ok."

After much debate, I agree to tell him. It's only right that I do, I should lie to him or think that I can't tell him things. He should be the person I tell everything to, good or bad. Thanking Zoe, I walk the small distance from her place to mine and sigh before calling out for Kris who I can't see around. At first I get a little worried, thinking he might have took the kids out after all and with Daniel prowling about it's the last thing I want. I'm so relieved when he walks downstairs.

"Hey honey, you alright?"
"Yeah...well actually I need to talk to you..."
"Oh, ok. What's up?"
"Well, it's.....actually maybe it's best if you sit dow-"
"Daddy?"
"Typical." He sighs, rolling his eyes. "I won't be a minute."

As we're interupted with Olivia calling him, I make my way to the kitchen and pour myself a glass of water. My phone rings in my pocket, and I pull it out to see Daniel's name flash up. Just seeing that name makes me feel sick, so I cut him off and prepare myself to tell Kris.

poor jess
its super good
cant wait for more

I believe in you Jess! She better not chicken out.

*groan* you can't just leave it there! I need to know what happens!!

Please say that she tells him.
Fab.

Awwwwwwwwwww Poor Jess
Arrrggghh this is SO awkward.....she doesnt tell him and he worries and gets hurt seeing her so worried and she does tell him and he's gonna get hurt coz she's been lying to him and he'll go APE when he finds out the truth.....but Jess cant carry on like this, and neither can Kris, all he wants to do is look after her...

*bows* OMG I LOVE ZOE!!!! LOL
I'm SO glad Jess told Zoe, I know it should have been Kris really but at least now she's not alone...loved how Zoe shouted the loser's name btw LOL

[quote]"And what if Kris does something stupid?"
"Like what? Knock Daniel into next week? That's not stupid Jess, that makes sense. He can't just come along and threaten you..."

HAHA *claps* *bows* again LOL

Fab Hez ok this is progress I love this however much I stress about it LOL

Cant wait to read more, love this and you too xxxxxx

Kris' POV

With my mind fully on the news that Jess has to give me, I quickly rush upstairs to see what Olivia was calling me for. As soon as i'm in the bedroom, she runs to me sobbing.

"Hey, sweetie what is it?" I ask worryingly.
"It's huge Daddy, it really is and it was on me and..."
"What was?"
"A big spider...eww it was yucky!"
"Right well, I suppose I have to rescue from it do I? Come on, show me where it went?"

Taking my hand she drags me over towards the window and points to the floor and as soon as it moves, she screams. She's just like Jess, as soon as she sees something like this she throws a massive hissy fit and if I don't get it all hell breaks loose. So I grab hold of it and put it outside from her window.

"Is it gone Daddy? Please is it..."
"Sweetie, it's ok." I laugh gently and sit on her bed, putting my arm around her. "I've got it, it's gone now."
"You promise?"
"Yeah, yes I promise. It's ran away now, cos I shouted at it for scaring you."
"I wasn't scared!" She pulls away from me with this look on her face.
"Yeah, course you weren't. That's why you screamed at me to come up and get rid of it.."
"Well it's yucky!"
"Right well now it's gone, can I go back downstairs to see Mummy?"

"Is Mummy upset?"
"No." I reply seeing her worried little look. "What made you think that?"
"I heard her crying with Auntie Zoe..."

And now it's me who's worried again. So this girly chat she said she was having with Zoe, made her cry? I very much doubt it and now I know for sure that something else is going on here, something she's keeping from me and it's got nothing about what she said to me this morning.

"I'm sure she wasn't angel." I reply trying to reassure Olivia. "Now do you want to watch some cartoon-"
"Who's Daniel then?"

That name, the thought that now enters my head when I hear it makes me go angry inside. What's Olivia bringing him up for? There's no way she would have remembered that sleezeball and thank god for that. He was nothing but a nasty piece of work, one of which i'm glad to be shot of.

"What?"
"Mummy said his name to Auntie Zoe..."
"Ok darling listen. I'm going to put your cartoons on ok, you just stay up here for a few minutes."

Walking downstairs I see Jess sitting with her head resting back against the end of the chair. This thing she had to talk to me about, it's to do with him. I can feel it. That's why she's not been herself recently, that's why she's been upset. It's him, he's got to her again and I know want to know how and why.

"What was wrong with Olivia?" She asks, as I reach the bottom of the stairs.
"Nothing. She mentioned someone to me....said you got upset at Zoe's before..."
"But she was here..."
"Well obviously she wasn't. She heard you crying....and the name Daniel stood out, she wants to know who he is."
"What?" She laughs, but she's nervous I can tell from here.
"It's him isn't it? He's the reason you've been upset and he's the thing you need to talk to me about?!"
"Ok, listen I was going to tell you...."
"Tell me what?!" I snap angrily. She's been keeping things from me. "Is he here?"
"Darling listen.."
"He is isn't he?" I ask as it hits me. "He's here and he's seen you. You've spoke to him haven't you?"
"Yes..."
"How could you be so stupid?! You don't know what he's like, Jess. He could have done anything..."
"Shut up, Kris. Just shut up!"
"I'm only trying to look out for you ok? What's so bad about that?"
"I didn't tell you because I wanted to protect you!" She screams back, walking away from me.
"Jess?" I pull her back gently. "Protect me from what?"
"Nothing, it doesn't matter..."
"Yes it does. Protect me from what? Has he been making threats?"
"Maybe you should sit down before you hear this..." She says softly whilst trying to sit me down.

"If you don't tell me right now then i'll go out there and look for him myself!"
"Oh yeah, like that's going to work. You going out there all guns blazing..."
"Well knocking him into next week, will make me feel better!" I reply. "A lot better infact!"
"This is why I didn't tell you...."
"You should have told me, you should have said straight away and why didn't you? No lies you said..."
"I was trying to protect you!" She cries. "Don't you get it? He's jealous of you..."
"So what, he's a sad pathetic waste of space who's clearly obsessed with someone he shouldn't be!"

"Please, Kris. Just let me tell you everything you need to know before you go out there..." She gently touches me face. "Please?"

As she pleads with me I know I can't just rush out there and look for him. I need to sit down and let Jess tell me everything before I decide on what i'm going to do. I'll probably still go after him, but I don't care as it's what he deserves. He's threatening my family and I won't allow anyone to do that.

finally! so glad she told him
i hope kris knows exactly what he is doing before he goes and does it
its brilliant
cant wait for more

Awww Olivia is SO cute lol I dont blame her about the spider lol she's lucky she has Kris to rescue her from it LOL

"Yeah, yes I promise. It's ran away now, cos I shouted at it for scaring you."

Awwww lol

Olivia heard Jess crying and Daniel's name!!!

I love how he senses just by looking at Jess that what she needs to say to him is about that sleazeball, he's getting protective about it already..

BIG uh-oh he's angry already just let her talk Kris argh he has to be quiet so they can talk...

"Well knocking him into next week, will make me feel better!" I reply. "A lot better infact!"

*claps* wahoooooooooooo I'm glad someone else is on the same page as well as Zoe LOL

"So what, he's a sad pathetic waste of space who's clearly obsessed with someone he shouldn't be!"

Exactly....hmm who else do I know who's obsessed with someone they shouldnt be Hez? LOL

Awww bless him he just wants to protect his family and sort that fruitloop out, i'm glad he's gonna hear Jess out though

OK i'm getting worried.....REALLY worried lol

Still loving this though hun lol I cannot wait for all this mess to be sorted out though

Sooooooo glad you've updated!

More For Lianne xx

Jess' POV

I don't have much time to get my head around the fact that Kris now knows and as relieved as I am about that i'm now starting to worry. Just as I thought he's angry. Angry at me for not telling him and angry at Daniel that he's back here. I've managed to sit him down, and I quickly take hold of his hand to keep him calm.

"Tell me, Jess." He sighs deeply. "Just tell me everything he's said to you..."
"He's in trouble.."
"Yeah too damn right he is! He's not going about calling the shots, wait till I get my hands on him.."
"Kris, please just listen. He's running from people, but he came to see me and....well he..."
"Did he touch you?"
"No, it's not that." I reply. "He wants money so he can get away."
"And he wants it from you?" He asks, and I nod. "He's not getting nothing from us, nothing!"
"He's been calling me up and he said that he knows people..."
"People? What people?"
"Dangerous people. Kris he'll hurt you I know he will, I didn't know what to do and i'm sorry for lying..."
"How long has he been doing this?"
"I dunno really.."
"How long Jess?" He demands an answer from me. "I need to know how long."
"A few days, that's all. He's not touched me or anything like that..."
"Doesn't matter. He's got you upset and worried, and if he wants to see me then let him!"
"Don't do anything stupid, I can't lose you.."
"I wouldn't call knocking the slimeball into next week stupid would you? And you're never going to lose me, I promise."

"What are you going to do?" I ask, slightly nervous as he gets up angrily.
"You call him, tell him to meet you in the park at the other end of the street..."
"Kris..."
"Only he doesn't know that you ain't going to be there. He'll be given a little surprise when I show up."
"I don't want you to meet him."
"I know, but I don't think you get to decide this. I'm sorry Jess, but I have to do this."
"You don't.." I reply tearfully. "You can just leave him to go, that way you won't get hurt.."
"Jess, just call him!"
"And what about me? Or don't you care?"
"I'm doing this because I care, you silly cow!" He raises his voice, which shocks me. "Don't give me a lecture when you've been ly.."
"Lying? Yes I know, and I said i'm sorry what more do you want?"
"You know what? This is exactly what he wants, me and you arguing like this.."
"Well you're the one who's letting him get what he wants!" I scream back at him.
"I don't care!" He throws me the phone. "Just call him, and do it now!"

So I do, I call Daniel and pretend that I need to meet him in the park in half an hour. I think he buys it and he seems quite happy about the fact that i'll be meeting him. Only it's not going to be me who's meeting him. It'll be Kris and whatever happens after that, I don't know. But I do know someone will be hurt.

o dear! i have a feeling this aint going to work like clock work!
hope kris doesnt get hurt
its super
cant wait for more

Ok firstly thanks for dedicating that last part for me

"Yeah too damn right he is! He's not going about calling the shots, wait till I get my hands on him.."

Omg I love Kris he's fab LOL

"I wouldn't call knocking the slimeball into next week stupid would you? And you're never going to lose me, I promise."

Exactly *claps* and awwww I REALLY hope he means it...

Aww he's sooooooo protective over her, he's just the best lol
And yes Kris is right, that is exactly what that jerk wants, for him and Jess to argue and fall out

OK Kris is gonna meet him, I dont know whether to be happy or not so i'll just go for worried like I usually do lol if that nasty weasel touches one tiny hair on him then he's a dead man....I dont know how yet but I'll sort it trust me

Having said all that, I look forward to reading this "meeting"

love this and you too xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I hope Kris isn't the one who gets hurt.
This is amazing.

Argh! Kris is gonna do something stupid! I'm worrying! Jess should go with him, just to keep an eye on him!
Please don't put Kris into a coma, my only request! Oh and don't kill him either!
