'Let him go, or IT will kill you!' was the message I found on my iPhone the next morning. From an unknown number. Was it possible to send messages from an unknown number? I was confused. Was I scared? I didn't know. Maybe it was just a stupid joke from a student. But what was IT? Who could be the one who send me this message? Maybe a jealous ex of James? Was it about James? The cup of coffee in my hands, sitting in the kitchen. "Good morning" I shock up. James places his lips on mine for a sweet little kiss. As he leaned back, my cheeks in his hands, he looked concerned. "Are you okay?" he asked. James was stressed, I couldn't bother him with such a supid thing. "Yes... I'm... I'm fine. Just didn't sleep well." I suttered my answer. "Are you sure?" he asked again, stroking with his thumps over my skin. I nodded and gave him a light smile. He stared at me for a few more seconds, then walked to the coffee machine to get his cup full of black gold. "Blaire, I wanted to talk to you." he started and sat right in front of me. "Look, I know everything happens fast, but we have to move as fast as possible to New York." Great. "What do you mean by fast?" I asked. I just hoped he wouldn't say before new years eve. "Well, I have to be there in two days." whith those words the stared at me again, to see my reaction. "Oh, uhm, okay." wow everythings happened so fast. We weren't a couple for a long time, back again, and now we are moving to New York. But it is just for three months. We will see how it works and then decide what will happen. "If you can't leave that soon, it's okay, Blaire. You can come later." he mentioned. "No, it's, it's okay." James face lightened up. He came over and kissed me again, soft. "I'm so happy to have you. I don't deserve someone like you." he wispered against my lips. He never said those words. I was confused. "You deserve much more than that, James." I said. He kissed me again. "Okay, if you wanna call your parents, or Brandon, that's fine. Just pack a few things, you don't need much, we can buy it there. We have a apartment in Manhattan, everythings is set up for us." Now I got an idea of the amount of money his parents had. Pretty weird. I will live in a total different life for the next months, well, at least I had the feeling. I nodded and walked to the stairs to the bedroom. "Blaire?" I turned around in the middle of the stairs. "Are you sure everything's fine?" he asked again. "Yes, sure." I answered, gave him a light smile and ran to his bedroom.

I talked to my parents, who were happy, but concerned at the same time. I had to promise that I will call them, or send them a message every two days, at least. I guess all parents are like that. Then I called Brandon, who totally freaked out. he was so excited that i will go with James to New York and live there for a while. Of course it was great, but the message was always in the back of my mind. As I hung up, my handy rang.
'You can't walk away. The dark secrets will follow both of you. Better watch out!'

Another message from the unknown number. Okay, more and more I got concerned. Who could've known that we will leave the west coast? Everything was scary.
