I have never seen Danny as shaken as he had been two weeks ago, it's still affecting him until today and his actions prove my point as he is relunctant of leaving for his college visit. He's visiting two colleges and both offer sport scholarships. His uncle will be accompanying him today.
His uncle has been like a second father to him and though he can be a little intimidating, he's an okay man I guess. He never gave me problems when I first met him and seemed to think that I was right for Danny.
He and Danny have a close relationship and Danny values his opinion very much. I was glad that his uncle jumped at the chance of accompanying him on his trip.
"It would have been way more awesome if you were coming with me." He says, pulling me closer.
" I know but, I have a heck lot of work to get into, just to get the teachers off my back." I explain.

Left me to die?No, no, I must have heard wrong.I slowly turn around to face him. My eyes follow his every move, where he walks towards me." Hazel you have to listen to me, let me talk and explain to you-" "Why did you say such a thing to me Roman?....Why would you say that to me?"" Danny is not good for you Hazel Grace. He is not." " Roman, not this again." I say through a sigh, dropping my eyes to the ground." Hazel." A gasp slips out when his hands cradle my face and tilt my head up so I am looking into his eyes." Hazel I am here, not as your enemy. I am your bestfriend, your Roman. Eversince we were young, have I ever given you a reason to not trust me?" "No, but - ," I pull out of his touch but his hands are quick to hold my shoulders, keeping me from taking another step further.

"How's your head now?" He asks, after I'd taken a pain killer, to relieve me from the pounding headache." It's not bad anymore." "Are you sure about this?" Roman asks me as we arrive at my destination."No, but I know that I have to do this. It's better now then later I guess." I respond, turning to look at him.His eyes search my own and I just stare at him. He's concerned, I understand but I need to do this. I want to get everything over and done with." I don't know, let me go with you." He says, a plea in his tone." I have to do this on my own." "You don't have to do this on your own, let me be there for you and - " " Roman." I cover his hand with mine and look him straight in the eyes." Let me do this on my own, I can't be dependent on you for everything, there are some things that I will sometimes have to face on my own. And

It's my fault, it's my fault.It should have been me and not him.The thoughts repeatedly play in my head as tears stream down my face. Tonight has been the worst night of my life and I wish, more then ever for someone to tell me that this is all a bad dream. That I'll wake up and he'll be fine. All he wanted to do was to protect me but I couldn't do the same for him. I couldn't protect him. I couldn't protect my best friend.He called out for me. Oh my gosh he called out for me and I should have answered, maybe then he would have stopped. This is all my fault."Hazel!" I jump off my chair when I see Sam and Avery coming my way.I rush towards them, literally throwing myself to him and wrapping my arms around him. " Hazel, hey hey are you okay?" I shake my head, burying my face in his shoulder. I can't stop my bo

"No.""W-what?" I ask, frowning." That's what I mean, you are not going anywhere near my son." Mr O'Connor says."B-but I have the same blood type, I'm sure of this. I can save him." I try explain."My son is in there because he was busy trying to save you , so no, I wont let you go near him, or even see him for that mattet."" Nick, if she says that she is a match with Roman, then we should be jumping at the chance to save him. Everyone has been tested and no luck, she's our last hope. Come on, stop being so stubborn." Mrs O'Connor says in frustration."That boy hasn't returned yet so we don't know the results." He says, talking about Sam who's the last to go in."He wont be a match, I know this. I am the only one who is, he needs me, he needs me more so now then ever." I say desperately.He shakes his head no, already protesting.

" Hazel, wake up......doctor!" I feel myself being shaken awake.I would have resisted, had it not been for the repeat call for the doctor. That's when I remember where I am and why I had been in here. For Roman.A moan slips out as I tiredly open my eyes and the first thing I see are Roman's hazel eyes. " Ha, thank God." He sighs in relief, his eyes closing for a moment.I blink up at him, confused by his actions."You're awake, you're awake." He repeats, burying his face in my hair.What's wrong with him all of a sudden?" Roman?" He leans back to look down at me, his eyes moving all over my face. I watch with a confused frown as he traces his finger along the side of my face as if trying to put it into memory." What's wrong?" I finally ask."You weren't waking up." " I was asleep Roman, I t

"Dad, please say something." I plead quietly.His eyes snap to me." I'm taking you home. For good this time." He says, jumping off the bed." Dad, come on I can't just leave!" I say incredulously, rising to my feet too." You almost died Hazel!!" He shouts with eyes wide." I know that dad. I was there!...B-but that's not what I want to hear right now. I need my dad. I need my dad!" I cry out, tears trailing down my face.His head drops, breathing hard." I failed you didnt I?""Dad." I quickly go over to him, wrapping my arms around his waist and resting my head against his chest.He quickly holds me tight as he releases a shaky breath." I almost lost you, I almost lost the last thing I have left to live for." He says with a shaky breath, causing a pinch in my chest." I'm sorry sweetheart, I'm s

Moving in with Roman, came with a deal. Dad made a deal, that if I were to move in with Roman, I had to attend therapy for atleast a month.Of course I agreed. I wanted more then anything to get out of the academy and to live elsewhere. It's not that dad didn't trust Roman or anything, but he wanted to ensure that I would be safe, as well as safe. To me, Roman was the word safe. I've always felt safe around Roman because I know that he would protect me as I would him. Protecting each other just became a natural thing for us, eversince we were young.With today being the day that I moved, I had everything packed and ready to go and was simply waiting for my dad to show up. I don't know how he managed to sort everything out so quick with the school, but he did and now in a few moments, I would be out of here.Avery was both saddened by the fact that she was losing a roommate but she was

3 weeks later......Winter break is approaching and already the change in weather has made itself known. Today is one of those really cold days and staying at home seems best.Gosh, my home.I still haven't gotten used to it. Roman and I are actually living together. It's been quite a busy couple of weeks I must say. We've had a number of visitors, mainly my dad, my friends, Roman's family which obviously means his stepmom and Rosy, since him and his dad aren't really talking. Well Roman not talking to his dad that is.And when it comes to his friends, lets just say I've been doing a pretty good job at avoiding them. After what had happened at the hospital, everything is still as thick as when we had that little stand off. Everything has been a little calmer, now that I am not living at the Academy

Months later....I can't believe we finally did it, we graduated. I am more then ready to change the scenery and head on to college, with Roman ofcourse. He totally surprised me when he told me about how he'd had everything covered, before I could even start stressing about it. He literally begged that I let him have his way and darn it, I found myself agreeing before I could think about it, when he suddenly pouted, giving me innocent eyes and all.He can be so sneaky when he wants to.I finally left the Academy in good terms with the place, no longer was there fear or anxiety. I walked away with a smile, being in steady ground with some people. They have been a part of my story, a journey in which would honestly take us having a sit down, in order for me to retell.The life I have lived has been full of twists and turns, ups and downs and though at times, I felt like giving up

My dearest Hazel...By now you are a young woman, full of dreams and your heart still searching, for more to recieve. I do hope that by the time you read this letter, every bit of desire I had for your life, has come to pass. I hope that you are happy and in love. I hope that you are finally at that point in your life, where you know that your decisions matter, your voice matters.I hope that finally you and Roman have realised that you two, are soulmates.Maybe it's my wishful thinking but I see something there, something that is rare. As young as you two are, I see it and you two ending up together makes total sense, if you know what I mean.I hope that in whatever life has thrown at you, in every way, you must know that you will breathrough each hurdle that comes your way. I want you to know that it's okay to trust people, it's okay

I can't get his words out of my head, no matter how much I try. What he said, has brought so many thoughts into mind and those words, could only mean one thing, whatever it is, is important. His body language and tone suggested it and I can't think otherwise.I know that he has given me free reign over his phone, like I have done so too, but I just couldn't find myself checking his phone as if I am snooping around. I mean I trust Roman so much, it's bloody impossible for me not to.I can't go and straight out ask him, because that would mean I was eavesdropping. I didn't mean to overhear his private conversation, I just happened to hear, that's all. There are so many things I don't want do, that may come out wrong in his eyes. " Urgh, this is so exhausting!" I groan out." What's exhausting?" My head snap up in the direction of his voice, where he stands at the doorway.Before I can an

A moan slips out of his lips as I plant kisses along his skin. My focus is sorely on his neck and under his jaw. " Baby, what are you doing?" He asks, his sleepy voice making him sound so hot right now." Morning." I murmur in his ear before continuing with my assualt right where his weak spot is." Hazel." He groans, placing his hands on my waist, squeezing it and causing me to jump slightly.I lean back to look down at him." Will you wake up now?" A smirk plays on his lips whilst still keeping his eyes closed." Roman, look at me already." I whine." But I'm still sleepy." He says, trying to fight off a grin." No you're not. I'm here and that's more then enough reason to want to wake up." " Nope." I gape in disbelief of his answer. Fine, if he wants to sleep, then I'll leave him alone, damn O'

" Hazel?" I snap out of the trance I was just in, turning to look at my dad.His eyes show concern, even his approach towards me is slow and careful. I watch him silently as he sits on the coffee table, infront of me.We stare at each other for a moment, before he sighs, taking my hand in his own." This is the second time you've been up like this, in the middle of the night. You need to sleep sweetheart."" He wont talk to me. " I say numbly." Hazel...."" Roman wont talk to me, he wont answer my calls. I'm selfish aren't I?"" Hazel don't do this." I pull my hand away, cutting him off." I should feel different after having made this decision, but I'm not. " I rise to my feet. " Being here has made me realise that it's no longer just about me anymore."I walk away and head up to my room, feeling exhausted but not enough

I'm sorry.They are the words that my grandparents couldn't help but repeat too many times. It's been years since I'd last seen them and I thought I would never see them again. Tensions and disagreements were the cause of us seperating. After my mother's passing, nothing was the same again. My grandparents never saw eye to eye with my father again, both parties mourned differently. My grandparents thought it would be best for them to leave with me and raise me, whilst my father had time to mourn yet my father disagreed. He refused to let me go.The tension was too much and it was not good for either one of us. They suddenly left and communication thinned, until it was no more. Though it saddened me to lose out on contact with them, I accepted that I would never see them again. Years passed but now they are back, they want to mend our relationship and right, their wrongs.

It truly hurt me to see my dad the way he was last night. The image is still stuck in my head. His words caused an ache to my heart. It hurts that my dad feels so hurt, the blame that he placed on his himself was not right.I don't want him to constantly blame himself, for what happened to me. It's not his fault. I want him to understand this. I have to set things right, I know I have to. Things cant go on like this, it's exhausting to go through this rollercoaster ride once again.It's like my family and I can't catch a break. We need a break from all this. It's my first morning being home, having woken up in my own bed and breathing homey air. It feels weird not waking up next to Roman or him, not being the first one I see. We are so used to being around each other, now only being a phone call away just feels different. Everything feels different but not too bad, though I miss him terribly but being

I could never catch a break.I thought I was done with hospitals already, now to find myself in here again, it tells a different story. I have woken up and Roman is the first person I see. His head is rested on my bed, his hand holding mine. I shift slightly and try pull my hand away but his grip tightens, refusing to let me go.I close my eyes and will myself not to cry. I am so exhausted emotionally and I feel like I can't deal with what happened to me and what, I had learnt not so long ago.I almost died again.I faced death but the difference is that I remember now. I thought I was done with the lies, I guess not. I knew that there would be people who did not like me, but for someone to hate me enough to kill me, that's a whole different level. I have had enough honestly and a part of me, wants me to quit on life but I know I can't. Roman, my dad, my family and friends wont allow me to.

You stole everything from me.What does that even mean?" How can I steal something from you, when I don't even know you?......You're Roman's friend, no, you aren't anymore. " I shake my head." When Roman finds out about this, he will never forgive you. Never." I say, turning my back to them.I can't believe she would do this to me, to Roman. She is Kyle's partner in crime and she's been pretending to be a good person." Don't you dare turn your back on me Hazel!" She shouts." I can do what ever I f*ckin' want!..... You can't tell me what to do and who do you think you are to order me around huh?!" I say, glaring at her over my shoulder." Oh you'll be eating those words very soon you lil' b***!"" I'm sure I wont. Not when I'll be out of here in no time. Roman is coming for me." I say in confidence of my words.I turn b
