As Stella drives us to the restaurant, I think about her comment. Violet’s shadow? It’s not that bad is it? The more I think about it, the more I realize how much I’ve been lurking around her this past week. I wonder if it bothers her. No, I don’t think so. She would have said something, right? Besides, she was clearly happy to see me just now.
I’m definitely overthinking this. This girl is making me even crazier than I already was. If that’s even possible.
We pull up to a Greek takeout place and go up to the counter to order. We take a booth and Stella sits across from Violet and me.
“So, tell us about your weekend,” Stella says, while attempting to stab a tomato that insists on rolling away.
“It was nice. I spent a lot of time with my Dad and I saw Rebecca Saturday. I did bump into Jace’s mom though, which was super awkward.”
“Oh no, was she pissed?&

*Violet's POV*When we go up to the room to change, Stella says, “Alright, let’s see what bathing suit options you have.”“Options? I only have one,” I tell her and pull out my black one piece bathing suit that I’ve never even worn. Well that’s not entirely true. I put it on once under my clothes when I went to the beach with Jace, but I couldn’t work myself up to taking my clothes off.“Um, no. That’s not happening. Where did you even get that? Nevermind, you can borrow one of mine for today, but we’re adding bathing suits to our shopping list for next time,” she says as she starts pulling out a variety of different coloured items from her drawers.“Here, try this one. It’s your favourite colour” she jokes, throwing a ball of black strings in my direction. I unravel it and see that it’s plain black bottoms, which I put on and then two triangles and so many str

*Kane's POV*With Violet cuddled into my side, I sleep better than I have all weekend. When the alarm goes off I feel legitimately rested. I wish it could always be this way but I’m not that naïve.Violet groans and then drags herself out of the bed, giving me a very wonderful view of her bare hips swaying as she walks over to her bag to collect her clothes for the day.“Come back to bed darling,” I say, stretching my hand out to her.“I can’t. I’ve already missed this morning class twice and it’s only week 4. I really wish I could though. I think I might actually still be a little drunk,” she admits.“All the more reason to come back to bed.”“Kaaane,” she whines, “You’re not helping. I need to be a good student.”“I know, I know. Go on, be a good girl and go to class.”Her head snaps to me and her eyes meet mine as

*Violet's POV*After our impromptu date, I can’t help but feel a bit strange. I don’t think I ever fully registered just how abnormal our whole relationship, or whatever this is, is until now.All awkwardness seems to disappear the second we make it to his room, however.We spend the weekend wrapped up in each other and I actually begin to feel a bit bad because I’ve hardly seen Stella at all this week. On Monday, I head back to the dorms to change out my clothes and do some laundry and Stella and I decide to head out to dinner.We only go to the cafeteria but it’s nice spending some time with her. Apparently the guy she had been semi-seeing turned out to be a complete “douche canoe” as she described him so they’re no longer a thing.When we finish our food, we head back to the dorms to put on a few episodes of Sex and the City. I told Kane I would be staying in my room tonight because I r

*Violet's POV*When Stella gets back from dinner, I tell her what happened with Kane and say, “I messed up Stella. I shouldn’t have thrown the whole Jace thing at him. That was really uncalled for on my part.”“Yeah, I guess but also he shouldn’t have stormed in here like that. People don’t call the people they’re sleeping with to tell them every time they take a pregnancy test. That’s ridiculous.”“You’re right. But still, I feel awful. And not just because of the food poisoning, because I actually feel a lot better physically.”“Well, maybe just let him cool off for the evening and talk to him tomorrow. Who knows? Maybe he’ll even come to you.”“Maybe,” I say.“Come on, let’s watch some more tv and try to relax a little,” she says and pats the spot on her bed next to her. I sit down and we watch several episodes. By 9pm,

*Kane's POV*When I look out into the crowd, my eyes immediately stop on a pair of familiar blue ones. Violet? What the fuck? I blink a few times to make sure I’m not hallucinating. No. What is she doing here?I sprint to the cage door and am swarmed instantly. “Get the fuck out of my way!” I shout and the crowd begins to part for me. I run over and see Violet standing there with a look of shock on her face and Striker right behind her.“What the fuck are you doing here Violet?! You cannot be here! How did you even know where this was? How did you get in?” I’m panicking at this point. This is no place for a person like her.“I went to your house to apologize and when you weren’t there I went to the gym and Blade was there and he-”“Blade brought you here?! I’m gonna fucking kill him!” I scream and instantly look around trying to find him.“No! Kane, it&

*Violet's POV*When I hear the sounds of my alarm I groan and bury my face further into Kane’s chest to get away from the sound. Kane. Everything that happened yesterday suddenly comes flooding back. I feel the bed shift and the alarm shut off.“Good Morning darling. How are you feeling?”“Like I got run over by a dump truck, which is surprisingly better than I felt yesterday,” I tell him, covering my face with my hands.“Maybe you should just stay in bed for the day,” He says, voice full of concern.“I can’t miss another day,” I say, still making no move to actually get up.“Why not? It’s not like it’s the end of the world to miss your class. The profs all have the slides and assignments online right?”“Yeah, but I feel like such a bum.”“Violet you’ve been so sick. I think it’s okay to take time to recover.&

*Kane's POV*It’s finally here. The day we go to my father’s house for the second time. Only this time, everything has changed. The task of pretending like I’m not madly in love with Violet seems so insurmountable at this point that I’m terrified we might both end up suffering. I haven’t told her how I feel and I don’t plan to. I won’t. Not unless I can somehow figure out how to unravel the knot my father created that can ruin my life and now hers too.I head out to pick her up from the dorms. She had to go back to pack her bags and spend some time with Stella before leaving. She feels like a bad roommate for spending so much time here which is absurd because Stella gets it and is completely fine hanging out with other people from the dorm. Violet is just very sensitive to other people’s feelings which is one of the things I love most about her but can also be very inconvenient at times.When I get to their b

*Violet's POV*As expected, I don’t sleep very well and when I wake up around 7am for probably the 10th time that night, I decide to just stop trying to go back to sleep and go for a run instead. Thankfully, I promised Lucas that I would help him set up for the party and get ready with him so I only have to deal with Harper and my mother until after lunch.I feel a little bad about this because I’m basically abandoning Kane in the house with his father but he told me he would just find somewhere else to hang out.When I return from my run, I see Harper coming down the stairs and I pull my headphones out of my ears.“Good morning Violet,” He says with a smile.“Good morning,” I reply with a smile that I hope doesn’t look as forced as it feels. When I had to hug him yesterday it took everything in me not to vomit.“Did you have a good run?”“Yes, I did. Thank you fo

Between Love and Hate Our Beginning
*Violet's POV* We meet my Dad downstairs for breakfast and discuss our strategy for dealing with my mother. Personally, I don’t think it’s going to make any difference what we say if she hasn’t cooled off since yesterday, but it can’t hurt to have a plan. After some discussion, we finally come to the conclusion that none of us has any clue how to approach this so we’re just going to show up and hope she’s feeling more reasonable today. Dad drives us there and we walk up to the front door and stand there awkwardly, unsure if we should be knocking or not. It reminds me of the first time I came here with Kane. Naturally, my brain starts flooding with other memories of that same trip and I feel my cheeks heat up. Get it together Violet. After several seconds, my dad sighs and takes the initiative to knock. We wait there awkwardly for a few minutes before the door swings open to reveal my mother, dressed in a skin tight black dress with her hair curled and
Between Love and Hate Awake
*Kane's POV*I’m very pleasantly surprised that Malcolm is so accepting of this. He’s probably the only stable parental figure I’ve ever witnessed. No wonder Violet talks so highly of him. He’s what a father should be and I’m glad she had him to raise her.Truthfully, I don’t know what I would have done if he had reacted the same way as her mother. I don’t think I would have been able to handle causing her that kind of pain, but at the same time, I’m not sure I would have been able to let her go either.“Are you guys hungry? Should we order some food?” Malcolm asks.“Yeah, I could eat,” Violet says and looks at me and I smile. I’m glad she seems to be doing better since breakfast. It was really hard for me to watch her struggle, knowing it was my fault. Malcolm nods and then raises his hand to get the waiter’s attention.We order our food and we eat mostly in
Between Love and Hate My Entire World
*Violet's POV*When she tells us to get out, I’m still too mad at her for what she said to Kane to be upset about it. I stand up from my chair and storm out the door, and I know he’s following me.Once I make it out the front door, I storm down the driveway and sit on the curb of the sidewalk. “Well that could have gone better.”Kane sits down beside me and says, “It also could have gone worse.”“I know, you’re right. The important part went okay. And my mom will come around. I think.”He puts his arm around me and I cuddle into his side. “Are you going to be okay if she doesn’t?” He asks me.“I think so. I mean, she was never really there for me before anyway. It’s my dad I’m more nervous about. That would much more difficult.”“I mean, I don’t know your dad, but from what you’ve told me, he seems like a pretty unde

*Kane's POV*After breakfast, we take a shower and then pull out our laptops to study, awaiting the inevitable phone call we’re going to receive today. We both keep checking our phones and I’m a little surprised when it’s lunch time and we still haven’t received anything.We go down to the restaurant and I’m glad to see that Violet is doing better than she did with breakfast. It takes her a while to do it, but she finishes most of her food. If last night caused her to relapse, I would never be able to forgive myself.We head back up to the room, and just as I open my laptop, my phone buzzes and I see Heather’s name pop up. I answer it on speaker phone.“Hello?”“Kane,” Heather sobs through the phone. “Something awful has happened.”“What is it?”“It’s your father. He- He’s dead.” This is the part where my acting skills are
Between Love and Hate The Knife
*Violet's POV*As I pull the knife out of the butcher block, I can feel my heart rate increasing. I walk over behind the couch where Harper is sitting. This is the part Kane and I argued most over. He wanted to be the one to do it, but I don’t know how to use a gun.“No. I don’t think that. I think a knife is more your style,” Kane says to him.As I raise the knife up over my head, I don’t allow myself any time to consider my options before I bend over so that my head is about level with his, and then I plunge the knife down into his chest, right where his black heart should be. I let go and back away immediately. He does exactly what I had hoped he would do.He grabs onto the knife with both hands and attempts to pry it out. Now his fingerprints will be the only ones on there. I walk over to stand beside Kane and watch as he looks between the two of us. Blood begins to gurgle out of his mouth and I lean into Kane, plac
Between Love and Hate Confession Letter
*Kane's POV*The whole week, Violet and I spent studying and also going over our plan to the point where it might have been considered slightly obsessive. Exams start next week followed by Christmas break so if we don’t do this now, we’ll have to wait until after Christmas and I don’t think either of us wants to have to spend time with my father over the holidays. Besides, the longer we wait the more danger we’re putting the new housekeeper in.On Friday after class, we head to the hotel as we have every single other time, check in at the counter where the same lady is always working. We head to our room and do all of the things we normally do: we get dressed, go to dinner and then head back up to the room, placing the “do not disturb” sign on the door.Violet then sets up her laptop which is set to play 2 different audio tracks at random times through the night to mimic our normal night time activities. We then proceed
Between Love and Hate My Eyes Only
*Violet's POV*When I wake up, I hear Kane’s deep breathing coming through the phone. I usually wake up first on weekends so it’s not a surprise. I sit up in bed and pull out a book to read while I wait for him to wake up.Almost an hour later, I hear movement through the phone and then a clattering sound and then a muffled “Fuck.” I stifle a giggle and then say, “Rough start?”“Sorry darling, did I wake you? I knocked the phone onto the floor.”“No, I was already awake. I was just reading.”“I see. What time are you leaving?”Sometime after lunch. Stella went home for the weekend, so my room is empty tonight.”“Okay, just text me when you’re leaving and I’ll meet you at your room, yeah?”“Yeah. I can’t wait to see you,” I say with a smile. I can’t even believe I’m leaving my father a day ear
Between Love and Hate 12 Hours
*Kane's POV*After hanging up the phone, I sit on my bed and try to calm myself down. I was worried she might run into Jace on this little trip, but I did not consider that she might have dinner with him and then a whole conversation about potentially becoming friends.I know how much she hated it when Jace was all jealous about Lucas so I tried really hard on the phone not to be but now I can’t get images of them laughing and talking and hanging out at dinner with both of their parents; things normal couples do. I can’t give her that and he can.I should have just let her go. I should have let her find some nice, normal guy to date. She shouldn’t be stuck with me. No, she’s not stuck. She wants to be here, right? She tells me that all the time. God I wish she were here now.I realize I’m pacing around my room and try to force myself to calm down. I grab the scotch from my desk drawer and down several gulps and th
Between Love and Hate Friends Again
*Violet's POV*Once again, driving away from Kane feels like I’m driving in the wrong direction. I blast my music and think about how nice it will be to see my father and Rebecca instead. I really do feel bad about not visiting more often.When I drive past Jace’s old house I cringe. Shit. I didn’t even think about the fact that he would probably be here. Well, hopefully I can just avoid him. Dad told me a few weeks back that Amelia and Preston know about the break up so even if I do run into them, I won’t have to lie.I pull into the driveway and text Kane telling him I arrived and then grab my bag and head inside. When I open the door and walk in, I hear Amelia’s voice coming from the living room. Fuck. Maybe she’s alone? I see my Dad walk around the corner and he comes up to give me a hug.“Hey kiddo! It’s so good to see you!”“Hi Dad. It’s good to see you too. Did I h
