I stalk out of the gym, head held high and tears pouring down my cheeks.
My nose still hurts like a bitch but the blood was no longer oozing out of my nostrils like before.
I might need to go to the school's nurse after this to have it looked at though.
But first I need a bath and a change from this ridiculously short and tight clothes.
Whoever chose this for gym class?
I go back to the changing room, taking my bag, the one containing my change of clothes and go into the bathroom.
Dumping it one one of the benches, I take out my towel and bathing kit and go into my favorite bathing stall.
The water hits just right in this particular one.
I turn the water on, scrubbing down hard on my body to wipe every memory and dirt from that abominable class.
I spent my time on it since I don't have anyone outside waiting to get in, and then I set to rinse.
I turned the water on to full blast, shutting my eyes

JADE'S POV"Come with me, pancakes."That's like the best words I've heard all morning.I let Matt lead me away from the oblivious fuck birds making out in the room.He takes me back down the hall to one of the less exposed classrooms.And it wasn't until we were already inside it, did he take a pause to look at me, really look at me."As alluring as it may look, really pancakes? A towel?"I sigh as I roll my eyes at him."Of course I didn't intentionally pick this choice of outfit, you dork. It's basically all I have now."His brow rose questioningly as he settled on the desk before me, waiting for me to continue."What do you mean by 'all you've got'? What happened to your clothes?" He asked.Well, I can save my pride from taking a hit and keep this morning and it's crazy episodes from him, or I could careless about that now and spill.The latter seemed the sane option now because I need his help.

CADEN'S POVI'm not sure how I ended up in this damn class room with Lizzy, all I know is she'd called and I'd followed.And now, I wish I hadn't.Allowing her bring me here, letting her kissing me like her life depends on it, that's all bull shit.It isn't working to solve my problem like I'd thought it would, it wasn't cutting crap.I could have my lips plunged into cactus and it'd feel the same, taste the same as kissing her now.I pull back from her, breaking our kiss."What's wrong?" She asks, making a pout as she tried to pull me back to kissing her."It's nothing. You should get back to class." I told her, pulling away from her reachShe didn't look like she was buying any of my shit but I don't give a fuck either way.I shouldn't have let her stick with me for so long she's becoming entitled to answers, none of the others ever did.She crossed her arms over her breasts, fixing her eyes on me.

CADEN'S POVThe realisation that I wasn't what Jade needs hit me harder than I wanted it to, more than I needed.I know I should stay away from her like I did since my return here, well, until my book found its way into her possession, but I knew my answer to that already even before I could admit it to myself.There's no way in hell that I can, not anymore.I've somehow managed to cross some fucking invisible boundary that we had and now, I don't know how to uncross it, I don't even want to.I'm no angel, I say this because I want hold on to her until it hurts too much to and even then I'm not sure I'll be ready to let go.That's how bad I need her now, after endless denial and abstaining.For the rest of the school hours, my mind stayed fixed on cracking this mystery of the 'little clown fucker' before the psycho really hurts her.It scares me to imagine them doing her anymore harm.By the end of it though, all I had w

JADE'S POVI sit quietly in Caden's car, staring out of the window instead of looking at him like I really want to.The only thing that will achieve is reminding me repeatedly what I saw this morning and making me hurt more than I can really allow myself.I'd known it was going to happen, I mean it's Caden the manwhore we're talking about, I just didn't expect it to be this morning or to hurt this much.Living in a fool's paradise, that's what I'd been doing, but not any more.Right?I realise he's not taking me home directly as the scenery I'm staring out at starts changing to that of the route that leads to his house and not mine.I have no objections to that though.There's nothing I'm rushing back home to, not like anyone is waiting for my return.He hasn't said any more words to me since promising he's going to take a look at the damage Ronnie did to my nose.I should have known then the said looking at would

CADEN'S POVI know she's not going to do it, I'm just pulling her legs, but it's a shame though.And she's totally lying.She's scared of me, I'm just not sure if it's because of how I've treated her since being back or because she feels something for me.I pray it's the latter, even though I don't know what I'll do with that if it's true.I'm too broken to deserve her and that's been the main reason I've been staying away from her.Knowing Jade, she'll spend the rest of our lives trying to fix me, if I give in and act on my feelings for her, because that's how she is, nurturing.But I'm past the point of being fixed, I took a hit too hard and it damaged me too bad, and she dosen't know that and it'll make me worse watching her try.I can't do that to her.I chuckle, trying to ease the tension my request had caused in the room.Shit is so palpable I can cut through it with a butter knife if I try.Does it r

JADE'S POV.The feel of Caden's lips against mine again, the taste of him and the slow and purposeful caress of his hand on my skin has me floating up to cloud nine.In this moment, nothing in the whole wide world matters, not my parents, not Amber and not even the notes or any of my problems.They'll still be here when I crash back to earth and warm, sweet taste of his lips is gone from mine.But then it stopped, too suddenly.If known it'd end, but not as abruptly as it did and that's probably why it got me.He broke away from me like I'm a plague he didn't want to catch, the look on his face far from excited.It hurt to see it, and it's worse that I enjoyed being his for even the minute that it lasted.And then, it dawned on me that I've fallen for it again, stupidly shown him how weak I am to his charms and allure.Anger, raw and undiluted starts a course through my system, seeping in and replacing all the euphoria t

JADE'S POVIt's been days now since I last spoke to Caden and I'm not sure how I feel about it.I mean I'm pissed about what happened, but I've had more time to actually think about it.And the more I think about what happened between us, the more I realise I could have handled it different and saved us both the headache.He'd not been wrong, I'd let him kiss me the second time, went into that water with my eyes wide open and my head sane.I could have done better than blaming him but in the heat of my anger and the swamping feeling of betrayal that had been trying to consume me, I'd laid it all on him until he'd exploded .Well, I'm past the point of reminiscing and dwelling on that.I'll apologise though, if he isn't doing a good job of avoiding me and staying hidden from my sight all the damn, fucking time.It isn't even helping that for some reason, Matt is staying away from me too.I don't know where I went wr

CADEN'S POV I was at my locker swapping my books when I heard the words flying, something about some junior being rushed to the school's infirmary. I'd have ignored the news as is my usual, except the description of the victim oddly fit someone I know, too much. And then I heard her name being mentioned and that confirmed my fears. I didn't stand long enough to catch the full gist as I dashed off in the direction of the nurse's office. Different scenarios rushed through my head as I did and none of them was good, whatever it was, it had sounded serious when I heard it. I push the door to the room open, barging in like I own the damn place. I might as well, my father pays for more than half the things around here and that girl in the next room means too much to me to wait around for formalities. "Caden Jones!" I ig

JADE'S POV I try hard not to look at him differently, not to feel so much hurt on his behalf and not blame myself so much for not being there when he needed someone the most, but it's sooo fucking difficult not to, not after listening to everything he just said.I had no idea all he'd gone through, alone and now all the times I spent hating his guts and resenting him seems a waste and stupid.Every day, I imagined he was enjoying his super perfect life, looking down his nose at the rest of us measely teens but his life had been anything but perfect.It'd been all bright on the outside and yet very dark, lonely and hollow on the inside that it must have been so fucking difficult.Somehow, I'm glad I skipped school today and is spending the day with him, a weak attempt at making up for lost times and a silent apology for....everything.Silently, I'm grateful that his book went missing because he would never have told me any of this if it hadn't, though I hope to hell and back that it do

CADEN'S POV Richard was a portly man, a little too young to be imagined a close friend of my dad's and always overly excited with his beady eyes and warm hugs.......but I don't tell her this.I don't say a word about how I hate the smell of musk and spice to this day because of him and I don't mention how terrifying I find anything served unsealed or in a glass.I dont say shit to her anymore than I already did because even that is too fucked and too much to dump on someone.There's no point burdening her with the whole story now of how he'll come home from work early every other day, always glad when he finds me home alone.He'll always smile like he's the good guy and ask how school was, even though I never bother to answer any of his questions. All I wanted at that point in my life was for my mom to not be.....gone and for my dad not to always be gone, not some man always prying into my business every now and again.Her sobbing, faint now but still there, racking through her petit

JADE'S POV I can't believe he liked me back then, almost as much as I like him and said nothing.All those years ago and he'd let some stupid thing he heard me tell Ches out of resignation ruin all of it for both of us.I mean, she and I had been what we thought of as pretty obvious in our crush on him, she, the more obsessed one and me, more the best friend that knows for sure that she'll never have the guy but he'd not once seen through any of it?Wow, I can see now why most people would easily agree that most guys can be so fucking clueless, annoyingly so, when they want to be."So when you returned, started a new school and found out I was there, why didn't you try to talk to me about it, or say something at least? Why did you just continue ignoring me, barely answering my greetings and rolling only with your new circle of popular friends?"He has the decency to look sorry about that, like he just realised now too how much of a bitch hindsight can be."I'd just gotten out of very
