Zoe's P.O.V

I was still thinking I was just dreaming the whole thing. Well, Ryan has been acting weird, but I love him, or maybe I don't and that's why I dreamed of Colton? I sat up, quickly, and whispered, "Colton?" I only whispered because Ryan was asleep next to me. Hmm? It's too early. He whispered, he thought someone was talking to him, because he looked over the edge. "Look at me!" I whispered, teasing him and his head moved somewhere else. Oh, Zoe. Don't scare me like that! He said, pretty loud before flipping onto his side, facing the wall. I felt cold skin under my finger tips. I saw that it was Colton's bare chest that I was feeling. I shivered. Why did you wake me up? He whispers, starting to close his eyes. "I thought it all was a dream." I whispered back and I felt him nod.

Hours later

I started walking through the park, alone. Unless you count Colton has a person. I still think he's just a figure of my imagination. Someone who finally gets me and listens.

I see a pretty blonde infront of me, well Colton. She had very pretty eyes, and was about as tall as him. "Shes pretty. What's her name?" I asked, sitting at a bench so I wouldn't get lost in one of the worlds. Hi! Annie! It's good to see you again! Colton said, giving her a hug. It was quiet uncompoftable, she smelled too strong of perfume. She was so tiny it wasn't even a hug. "I can tell she's not your girlfriend, that was super uncomportable. But you should ask her out..." I suggested, causing him to snort, startling Annie. Oh, Devin-he.... Colton trailed off, trying to find an excuse. "Liar." I whispered and they just stood staring into each others eyes. So, I pinched my arm, causing Colton to look at it. "Ask her out!" I yelled, causing a few birds to fly away. Annie, I'm going to be going back on tour soon, but would you like to go out- Friday? Friday?! Thats when I have the banquent, for Ryan. "No! Not friday!" I yelled, causing him to hold one ear. She shyly nodded and smiled, Great, I'll- I zoned out, getting back to my world, and saw a puppy staring up at me with awe. "Hey there little guy." I said, reaching for it. He backed away, frieghtened, before running off. *Starts laughing* You scared him off! I zoned into his world and he was by himself, near a punch table. I smiled and decided to try something new. I jerked my hand really fast, causing him to do the same thing. Colton had told me what happened to him when he was younger, and he only did the same thing as me because I had jerked.

What the....? Colton said, taking his hand out of the punch, causing me to laugh.

Colton's P.O.V

I took my hand out of the bowl and wondered how she did that. I hurried and wiped my hand. Eric wrapped an arm around me, He's cute. What's his name? I rolled my eyes at Zoe's comment. "Dude, did you ask Annie out? For real, the model chick?" I felt my heart sag, but it actually wasn't mine, it was Zoe's. "She-Uh- Yes, why?" I ask, getting nervous that Zoe would do something to me. "No reason, I just saw you guys talking." He unwrapped his arm from my shoulder. "You seem uneasy." Eric said, causing Zoe to laugh. I wonder why.... "Shut up." I muttered, causing Eric's eyes to widen. "No, not you. Her- I mean- UH!" I turned and ran out the back doors. Calm down. She whispered, and I felt her jean fabric on my hands. "I can't, okay! I don't know why this is happening! Why can't I be normal?!" Zoe didn't respond, but I felt her tears running down my cheek. Do you think this is easy for me? I've been hearing your damn voice since I was 9! I was put into a mental hospital! Do you think I enjoyed it?! She yelled, scaring me. She never told me any of that....I raked a hand through my hair. "I'm sorry, okay. I just....It's something new that I haven't gotten used to..." I whispered, and I saw some girls taking my picture. I tried to smile, but it came out weak. Zoe didn't answer, I didn't blame her.

Friday Zoe'sP.O.V

I
tucked back a spare hair behind my ear and looked at myself if the mirror. I was wearing a black, tight dress that showed my shoulders and some cleavage. My hair was in a nice bun, all twisted and braided. You look pretty. I ignored him as Ryan came into the bathroom. He had on his tux, but it wasn't finished buttoned, and the tie needed tied. I reached for his buttons, and he smiled, allowing me to get it. His tan chest was showing, showing lots of abs. I bite down a smile and button them up before tying the tie. I felt Colton'd heart drop, causing me to remember that we were still connected. I looked away from Ryan. "Thanks, are you ready to go?" He snaked an arm around my waist. I looked at him and nodded. Ryan and his family have a proper way of living, certain times I'm not supposed to talk to him, or see him. Its weird, but as long as it means I'm still with him, then I'm fine with it.

We walk out, hand in hand, to the car.

Colton'sP.O.V

I put on my skinny jeans, nice black jacket, and a white shirt. I hurried and did my hair before leaving.

I don't know, I guess it was unexpected to see Ryan like that. Maybe Zoe did it on purpose? Or maybe she forgot me all along? I sighed and stopped at the restaurant. Annie told me to just meet me here, because she was staying somewhere.... Hotel? Anyways, I say our reservations, and sit down.

Zoe'sP.O.V

There was a lot of people at the banquet, and Ryan noticed my uneasyness. "Why don't we sit down, hun?" I smiled softly and nodded, and a strong sense of Colton's cologne filled my nose. "Way to much." I whispered, sneezing. Sorry. I looked over at Ryan, who was already talking to someone else, drining wine. Seemsasifyourboyfriendshavingmorefunthanyou. I watched drunk Ryan twirl a pretty girl. "Don't make me cry. Where's your date?" I ask, zoning into his world. Justcamein. She smiled and sat down. I zoned out and whispered, "Have fun, I'm not going to bother you guys." He didn't answer, he already started to ignore me. I sighed and headed over to Shelly.

Hourslater

Everyone was sitting, quietly, as Carl spoke. Carl was Ryan's boss. I felt something inside me, drop, and a huge weight came onto my shoulders and I couldn't breath. "Colton, stop." I begged, quietly. All of a sudden, I saw a giant semi, it was about to crash into a car. I screamed and fell onto the floor, crying. I zoned out from Colton, and saw everyone staring at me. I was on the ground, crying. I got up and hurried out, hearing Ryan apologize. "How dare you!" I screeched, yelling at Colton, who was sobbing. The-it- I ignored him and stomped to the car.

***

"What was that?!" Ryan asked, worried. He knows I have weird visions and stuff, but he thinks I haven't had them in awhile. "I don't know, I'm sorry, it just came over me." I started crying, hoping he would comport me, which he did. "Look, you need to control this." I nodded and I felt his lips on mine, and they got harder and harder. I moaned and he leaned me back on the bed. I unbuttoned his shirt, throwing it off, feeling his chest on mine.

Nextday

I woke up, naked, remembering what happened. I bit my lip and hurried to the bathroom. I changed and got ready for the day, even though it was early. I'mgladyoukeptyoureyesclosed, but surelyhurt me! He yelled, and I remembered he could feel me. I shivered and my fist started hurting, he was clenching them. "Sorry, forgot...." I whispered, doing my hair. I'mnotevengoingtoaskwhatyoudid, eventhoughIhavethebiggesthint!! He yelled again, scaring me. "Stop yelling! I can do whatever I want!" I yelled, and I heard a knock on the bathroom door. "Yes, Ryan?" I asked, scared. "Who are you talking to?" My eyes widened. "Oh, my mother called....she's on the phone....can you give me some privacy for a few minutes?" "Sure." I sighed in relief and Colton yelled again, Youseriouslyforgotaboutme?!? I looked down, letting tears fall. "What about last night then?! I made a fool of myself!" I yelled back, and I zoned into his world. He was sitting on a chair, fiddling with a string sticking out. A huge semi just crashed into a car! Thats exceptable, not what you did. He mumbled, and I felt his sadness. "How was your date?" I whispered changing the subject. It doesn't matter. He mumbled, crying. "You're blaming me, aren't you?" I hissed, digging my nails into my skin. He didn't respond. I searched through the bathroom supplies till I found my knife. Don't. You'll hurt me too. He pleaded, and I closed my eyes. I dug the knife into my arm, over and over again, hearing him cry harder. Stop! I went to do the other arm, but I tossed the knife from my hand. I tossed the knife from my hand? Colton must have controlled me. Stop! Please! You're hurting both of us! I started crying with him.
