would have tied me to a chair to find out about what happened between you and I last night.”
Tristan laughed. “I figured as much.”
Stella gave a confused look at Tristan. He barely even knew Claire, he had met her briefly at the concert, and he didn’t know her enough to make such an accusation, even if he was right. “What’s that meant to mean?”
Tristan sighed, “It’s just when you got knocked out at the concert, she was, well… how do I put this… very forthcoming.” He shifted uncomfortably in his chair.
It was not unlike her sister to throw herself at a guy, especially a famous singer. But she cringed at the thought of Claire all over Tristan. “She threw herself at you?”
Tristan nodded.
“And what did you do?” A knot formed in her heart. Had he flirted back? Please, please, please say nothing happened! Stella thought, wishing she hadn’t even asked.
“I did nothing.” Tristan sensed her discomfort in the conversation. “When the girl of my dreams lies unconscious in front of me and I have just spent the last three months thinking about her and praying I would meet her again, do you really think I would just disregard all of that for a girl making advances towards me?”
She shrugged. “I don’t know, would you?”
Tristan looked at Stella in disbelief. “Women throw themselves at me all the time Stella. I’m constantly surrounded by people who only want me because of who I am.” He paused taking a deep breath.
“When I met you Stella, you were different. You didn’t know who I was, and you didn’t care. You wanted me for me. None of the other crap. Do you know how hard it is to find someone like you? And even when I thought I had found someone in the past, I never felt the way I feel when I’m with you. Everything about you makes me feel alive, your very touch sends me into overdrive. It’s like nothing I’ve ever experienced before. I have this undying urge to be with you. To have you, to hold you.” He paused once more grabbing her chin in his hand. “To protect you.”
She felt the truth in his words and moved her face to his, gently kissing his lips, savouring the moment. When she moved her head back, so they faced each other, and she was still close enough to feel his breath on her face. “I’m glad you chose me,” she whispered.
He grinned, “She was never an option.”
Relief swept through Stella. She was glad nothing had happened between her sister and Tristan. She also felt pleased with herself as Claire was always looked at as the prettier sister, she had beautiful blonde hair and a perfect complexion, and every guy she had ever met couldn’t keep their eyes off her.
Claire had thrown herself at Tristan though and he had chosen Stella.
Tristan’s eyes were focused on the road ahead. “We’ll be there soon.” He turned to her, grabbing her hand, kissing it then gently placing it on his knee.
Where they were going she had no idea, but as long as it meant she would be with Tristan she couldn’t care less.

Tristan studied Stella’s face as she climbed the rocky hill. She had asked him several times where they were going during the lengthy car ride and again during their walk through the forest, but he wouldn’t let on any information. He didn’t want her over analysing his intentions and finding a reason not to go with him.
Following the worn track before them, which Tristan had walked many times before, he knew they were nearly there. Ben turned his head back to Tristan nodding at him, letting him know they were close. . It was Ben’s day off today, but he had insisted on coming with them today. Tristan had a bigger fan base in his hometown and they already had two of his usual security take leave, only leaving Sam on duty today. Ben never allowed Tristan to go anywhere without at least two people protecting him. So he generously offered to join them today.
Even Ben was pleased he had found Stella again. He’d never seen Tristan
