My patience is simply running thin with the stares. I thought it would pass, but nope, it has intensified, and now I've chosen to take refuge in the school library, just for the break.

I didn't pay any mind to the few glances I've received when I entered the library, now with time passed, I feel like myself again. I know that Wesley meant well by what he did this morning, he didn't want me to remain under such attention, but I don't think he understands, what all this may mean.

I feel him sit on the chair next to mine.

" I've been looking everywhere for you."

" Well, you found me." I say, not tearing my eyes away from my book.

" Chloe, what's wrong?"

" Nothing, just tired of the stares I've been receiving since morning."

" Since when have you cared about them?" He says, his tone teasing.

I turn away from the book to look at him.

    " You've kept this for too long, she needs to know the truth. So if you don't say anything soon, I'll be forced to do it myself." This is what I walk into, Aiden saying or ' warning ' someone over the phone this morning.I watch him sigh before hanging up." Someone must have pissed you off this morning, huh?" I see him tense up from where he's standing.He turns around to face me and I take notice of some deep emotion, crossing his face before it disappears." You're not going to school today." He suddenly says." But Aiden ----------"" We need to go to the doctor and check if all is good."" I'm all good now, Wesley took care of me." I blurt out, making Aiden to raise his brows while my eyes widen in surprise. " Uh, what I meant was ----------"" I know what you meant."" No, I didn't ----------"

    I can't believe I am sitting on the stands, watching both Wesley and Fin play basketball. Well, it's more like practise.Welsey is just helping Fin to get back to his groove and the enjoyment of the game, but I think what Wes doesn't realise, is that he is enjoying it too. I can see it in his face that he's been taken back to the good days, where basketball was his love.I am now back at school and I can't say I missed it very much, but it doesn't mean I have to skip alot. I just wish to finish already.I playfully roll my eyes when Wesley glances at me, throwing a wink my way before getting back to playing.Gosh, he is such a show off, I swear.I'm so fixed on watching them that I almost miss Callie and her cheerleading squad, along with a few guys from the basketball team enter the basketball court. I decide to ignore them and continue watching Wesley and Fin.I see the

    I don't like what I saw in the mirror earlier, it's an image of a girl who's been hurt and her eyes reflected it as so. I couldn't stay looking at the mirror any longer and quickly did my morning routine, before leaving the bathroom.Knowing that it's my turn to take out the trash this morning, I change into something a little more comfortable before heading out. Thank God it's Saturday, because I wouldn't have been able to go to school , more so to see Wesley, because my heart would hurt more.I can't believe I'm hurting over this, but the more I think about it, the more I realise that my feelings were so deep towards Wesley. My feelings are real and genuine for him, now to have him do what he did, that felt like a slap to my face last night.Gosh, I must have looked like a fool.Heading out with the trash, I come across a sight that pulls me to a pause. It's Aiden standing right at the end of the drive w

    I don't know for how long I've been sitting here, staring out into the distance, feeling quite numb after I had let out so much. I still have no desire to go back home, I want to remain here all alone, for just a little while." Chloe?"' Oh gosh, can't I just catch a break?' I turn to Callie, who comes my way, slowly might I add, as if she's afraid." Why are you sitting here alone?" She asks, looking around as if she's expecting someone to show up." What do you want Callie?" I speak up, wanting to know her intention for talking to me right now.She doesn't say anything at first but looks down, wriggling her fingers together before she sighs and looks up at me again.I watch her open and close her mouth, words failing her." What happened last night at the party was planned, you weren't meant to be there, but a picture to be se

    " She will surely give me grey hairs faster than my age." I hear Aiden say, as I come back to consciousness.It feels like I have been resting for so long and my body feels numb." What about Wesley, he looked so horrified when he returned here, with her unconscious." Ingrid says." By the way, where is he?" Aiden asks." Right here." The sound of Wesley's voice causes a heart reaction." Don't you want to head home and get some rest, it's likely that she'll sleep through out the night." Aiden suggests." No, I want to be here when she wakes up."The sound of a cellphone echoes throughout the room, silencing them. It's not long that I hear a sigh, before Aiden answers, then people leave the room.The bed dips and I feel hair being pushed away from my face." What am I going to do with you?" I hear Wesley say.

    Wesley asked me out on a date, the moment I was about to leave his car. I said yes and now he can't stop staring, as we both sit in the living room, listening to Aiden lecture us about safety and how important it is, for Wesley to bring me home back in time.I think Aiden has lost himself in his lecture, and is enjoying acting as the parent right now, a little way too much.I turn to look at Wesley, who's still staring. He looks almost dumbstruck." Are you guys even listening to me?" Aiden says." Yeah, she's so beautiful." Wesley mumbles, his eyes still transfixed on me.I raise my brow at what he's just said. I don't think he realizes that he spoke out loud.I snicker, when Aiden hits Wesley upside the head, snapping him out of whatever trance, he'd gotten stuck in." Uh, I mean, yeah, you said I should bring her back home at 10."" Isn

    Two weeks later....I can honestly say that opening my eyes, to the image of Wesley laying next to me, is something new yet good, to feel within. I spend some time just admiring his features and still asking myself today, if all of this is real.I actually have a boyfriend and I have no desire to leave right now, I am consumed by this fluttery feeling of being so close to him. I never thought things would lead up to this between us, I simply believed that one day soon, he would stop bothering me and leave me alone.But because he is Wesley Adams, he didn't. He always pushed and tried to find a way to be close to me. In his pursuit, I found walls surrounding my heart, breaking.Wesley Adams had a breakthrough to my heart. End of story.My heart jumps when his eyes flutter open and before I know it, we are staring right back at each other. A small smile takes over when his e

    It was just a bad dream, a nightmare to be exact.But ofcourse, everyone around me is making a big deal out of this, and I can't even kick them out, because they're creepily watching me.Aiden and Owen." You screamed." Aiden speaks up." Because I had a bad dream." I give my reason." It wasn't just any dream, was it?" Owen says.I sigh, running my hand down my face." It was just a bad dream, that's all, you guys are getting worked up over nothing."" It's not nothing." They both say at the same time." You screamed." Aiden repeats, making both Owen and me to give him a weird look.Owen then turns to me again." What Aiden means, is that we thought -----------"" That I saw him or he was here, I know." I finish for him.He nods."

    " So, how do we do this?" I ask, turning around to face Aiden.I'm doing all I can to not let the tears fall." You know that this is not exactly goodbye."" It's not the same Aiden, and you know it....."He sighs, turning away from me and taking a seat at the edge of my bed. I join him after some time and we sit in silence for a few minutes." You really are pushing me to kick you out faster."" Wow, someone's eager to get rid of me." I say sarcastically." Yeah, I am, because it'll be much easier to watch you walk away."" Now, you're the one pushing me to run away." I say, looking away from him.I can feel my tears pushing to come out.He sighs.

    " I love you." I say to a sleeping Wesley." You finally said it."Or not." You messed up my moment, Adams." I complain, flicking his nose.His eyes flutter open and I smile at him. I feel his hand reach under the covers to touch my waist." No, You cheated, you knew that I wanted to be awake when you finally said it."" I love you." He blinks at me.I see him lean close and I meet him halfway, to connect our lips. A small moan slips out when he lightly squeezes on my waist.I sigh in contentment, when he breaks the kiss and starts peppering kisses on my face. " My bluebear." He says against my forehead.I place my hand on his chest, right where his heart beats. He leans back to look at me, and we find ourselves simply staring at each other." So, nervous about today?" I ask.Tod

    " Thank you." I hear Owen say, as he walks the doctor out.I touch on my bandaged middle, sighing in relief that it's not as painful anymore. When the doctor had touched and pressed the wound, the tingling was replaced by a shot of pain.Thankfully, he told us that I just need to take a better look after myself and not push too hard. I should not push too hard to fully recover, I should allow everything to take natural cause.I think Owen must be more relieved, when the doctor had said we didn't need to go to the hospital. I'm pretty sure that he has no desire to ever visit the hospital again. Not that I did.One of the things that the doctor was impressed by, was how well I've been doing, in terms of my walking pace and that I'm functioning okay, that the gunshot, didn't do any permanent damage.I get up off the couch, pulling down my shirt and heading to the kitchen. I take out a can of

    Something soft touches my forehead, surely waking me up. I feel someone get in under the covers and wrap an arm around me, pulling me close. Knowing that it's no one else but Wesley, my response to him is snuggling into his chest." I thought I was being careful to not wake you up." He whispers above my head.I sigh, opening my eyes and tilting my head back, so I look up at him." I was wondering why you haven't snuck into my room yet, after....." I trail off, leaving the rest to hang in the air." I was waiting for the right moment."" What made today the right time?"" I don't know, maybe because I missed you a whole lot, and I just needed to be near you tonight."I reach out my hand to touch his face, letting my thumb to gently rub his skin. We spend some time just staring at each other, letting ourselves to get lost into each other's eyes.

    I shift on the bed, trying to sit up and do something, because I don't like the effect, that the silence seems to have on us. After what I said, Aiden hasn't been able to respond.He knows that what I said, is the truth.As I move, he is there to help me until I sit up, now being in eye level with him." I'm a ----------"" It was self defense." He cuts me off." He might have done the worst kind of things to us, but, it doesn't change the fact that I killed him. I killed someone's son."" It was self defence, Chloe! - He was ready to kill you, he'd been trying to do this for a long time and at the last moment....." He cuts himself short, rising to his feet and turning his back on me.I watch him run his fingers through his hair, releasing a sigh. " At the last moment, you put an end to it all. "My eyes drop to my lap when he turns around to face me. " You're a survivor, Chloe, that's why you are still

    The light is shining so bright, almost blinding my eyes. I blink a couple of times until I can adjust to it. When I become familiar to the room, I recognize my surroundings and conclude, that I am in the hospital.Moving one of my arms because they feel a little numb right now, I frown when something restrains me. I glance down to my hand and feel my heart stop for a moment, when I realize that I'm actually handcuffed to the bed.What in the world?Why am I handcuffed?The door opens and my eyes snap to the person who enters. Two suspicious looking men, in leather jackets enter, and I feel very unsafe, just by being alone with them." Miss James, good day." One of the men speaks, he's tall with sandy blonde hair.I don't respond, but just look at them.I don't know who these men are, and they could very well be, Luis's friends.

    Something is touching my hair and I've gone in and out of consciousness, fighting my way through waking up. I don't know how long I've gone through the same pattern, but one thing I know, is that I need to stay awake." Aah, look who's awake." I hear his voice.My body is exhausted and it feels heavy, I feel like I can't move because of where I've been shot. I know that this monster shot me.I feel numb almost, but I do all I can to resist letting myself fall unconscious again." I was getting bored here, good thing you woke up. Damn, you're stronger than I thought, you're still holding on." He chuckles.I want to punch him hard right now, so bad.I hear him shift, and by the squeaking sound, I know that he has me laid onto a bed. When he sits infront of me, I feel disgusted just by looking into his eyes." You're prettier than I remember, but I knew

    My phone slips from my hand and drops to the floor. I'm too stunned and my feet are stuck in place.Heads whip in my direction and Aiden's eyes are the first I see, widening in shock. Chairs scrape at once, as they all rise to their feet, now facing me." Chloe?" I snap out of it and I stagger back, as my heart beats hard against my chest." Chloe, listen -----------"" S-stay away from me." I stutter, holding up my shaky hands in warning."
