Pulling up into Jace's driveway I instantly get nervous. I had no reason to even want to see or talk to him. He has embarrassed me and has made it very clear that he doesn't want to be with me let alone even like me. So why should I even still try with him it's useless. 

"Do you want me to walk you to the door?" Archer asked taking my hand while Bexley Gasped in the back seat. 

"No, thank you it's okay thank you for the ride though I owe you one," I say smiling and opening the door. "hey Aspen that number of mine that you have, don't forget to use it." Archer smiled and watched me walk to the door.  As I made it to the front door I could feel my heart drop to my stomach and then I saw the door open slowly and to my luck it was Stacey.  She's looking at me like she has just seen a ghost.

"What's wrong Stacey?" she said nothing she just pulled me into the house as quickly as she could. I look behind her and see Journey standing there with the same look on his face. 

"Jace he.." 

"He what Journey what happened," I said as I suddenly heard a loud bang upstairs. 

"What the hell was that," I looked at Journey and Stacey searching their faces for answers but they said nothing so I made my way up the stairs. 

"Aspen no he doesn't want anyone in there" Journey stops me and holds onto my arm but I ignore him and make my way up the stairs and to Jace's room. Waiting at the door I hear glass shattering and loud bangs. I burst open the door and saw Jace standing in the middle of his room shirtless and sweating. I looked down at his arm and it was dripping with blood. 

"oh my god, what happened" I grabbed his arm but he snatched it away from me I saw the anger in his eyes.  

"Don't fucking stand there and act as if you care" 

'What do you mean Jace I.." he stopped me in the middle of my sentence

"You see all of this... it's because of you do you know that" he looked at me and his blue eyes were piercing into my soul. How was he blaming me for something that I didn't do?

"Me what..so I told you to destroy your room and..." I looked over at his wall and there was a huge hole "Punch your wall apparently,".  He stood there in silence with his hand still dripping blood I couldn't take it any longer I couldn't bear to see him like this despite how angry I was I had to put it behind me and take care of him. I grabbed his hand gently and walked him to his bathroom.
