Carden's POV:
I lay sprawled out on my bed. It's around midnight but I can't sleep. It's raining rivers outside so that doesn't help. Jude is another reason I can't seem to sleep. I can't stop thinking about her soft skin as I kissed it, the velvet smoothness of her generous breasts against my abdomen. Then my thoughts change to another encounter, the one from earlier today. I threatened her. I think. I made her feel unwanted, like what Locke used to do. I never want to be like him. I was just angry, I didn't really mean any of it. I just hope she isn't too upset by what I said. I'll go apologize.... Soon...
Jude's POV:
I can't sleep. Carden's words from earlier still float through my head.
'The only reason I chose you of all people to come and live in this apartment with me is because you were desperate.'
'Remember you aren't irreplaceable'
'And I will kick you out if you don't start cleaning up your act.'The words swirled endlessly in my mind. I felt sick. If he kicks me out I'll be homeless again. If that happens then Locke will find me and I will be stuck with him again. I'll have no one to protect me from him. Even if Locke somehow figures out I'm living here, Carden could protect me. That is....if he wanted to. If Locke came knocking on the door, would Carden even help? Have I become such a nuisance that he would just hand me over? Tears slide past my lids.
Feeling nauseous I stumble out of bed and to the bathroom down the hall. I just make it and lean over the toilet bowl when I vomit. I sit there for a while, breathing heavily as new bursts of chunky liquid come rushing out of my throat. I jump as something gently grabs hold of my hair and lifts it out of the way.
CardenCarden's POV:
I heard sounds that sounded like weeping. Then the door down the hall creaked open and someone entered the bathroom. Jude
Violent vomiting sounds came from the bathroom. I sat up, pin straight before quietly creeping out of bed and to her bathroom. The door is already open. I see her bent over the toilet bowl. Vomiting as tears slide down her cheeks. This is my fault. I think.
I made her cry. I'd never been so sorry in my life. I didn't know what to say. So I took as step forward, then another. She didn't seem to notice. I kept walking until I stood behind her. She still didn't seem to have noticed me. I carefully reached out my hands to gently move her hair away from the toilet bowl.I felt her jump as she realised I was behind her.
