Few days later...

I was empty. There was no feeling left in me. I didn't want to eat, sleep or do anything infact. School had been the least of my worries as I lay in my room staring out of the window. Images of Alex vandalizing my car was the only thing that could even think of bringing a smile to my face. His smile..his eyes everything haunted me. From the moment he had left I had tried to contact him in every possible was but it was like a bad picture of where's wally!

'Ani are you ready baby?' a man in a black suit entered being careful to open the door with ease. His hair was greying from the front as he came inside to sit down on my bed. I took a glance towards him but turned back towards the window giving a curt nod. With an elongated sigh I finally rose from my seat and grabbed the bag in my hand and silently swung it over my shoulder.

'Seths coming to pick you up today,' my dad tried urgently to spark a conversation, while I refused to talk. On entering the kitchen I was greeted with the extravagent aroma of pancakes for which once I would have gobbled up in no time at all..but right now I had just lost my appetite.

'Darling have something to eat please!' my mother came over to me fretting at my health. Okay...I understand that I hadn't eaten at all in the past few days and my bones were showing quite a bit but it wasn't that bad. Plus no one understood that I wasn't physically but actually mentally hurting. There was a massive hole in my heart that only one person could fill.

'I'm not hungry mum...' I stated hurrying out the door and ignoring my parents protests. There was a car waiting for me outside on our porch and a smiling young man inside aswell. Before I could even attempt to reach out for the door handle Seth was already by my side pulling it open for him. I slid in, not in the mood to converse. He had gone with a casual look today, with faded blue jeans, t-shirt and open beige cardigan on top. His hair was flopped on his face at the front but still firm and became spikier towards the back.

In comparison I looked like a hobo of the streets with my sweatpants and loosely hung bear jumper on top which I had gotten lat Christmas. My hair was tied up in a ponytail with a few free strands at the back and I had not bothered with make up.

'Well you look well today!' Seth tried at ignite a conversation along with his car. I raised an eyebrow at his words. Was he joking me?

'What? It's true your natural beauty is showing!' he winked at me cheekily trying to balance his attention on the road ahead and me. A small forced smile found its way to my face as I turned hastily back to the window.

'Ani what's wrong? I know the whole kidnapping scene has got you a bit traumatised but I can tell its more than that!' he probed keeping his eyes locked onto mine as I stayed silent. The pleading glaze in his eyes was making me put my guard down as I fiddled with my fingers.

'Its just hard to act normal after someone you trusted blindly with your heart betrays you...' I whispered harshly ad tears prickled my eyes, but I turned away just in time to wipe them off before he caught me.

'What are you talking about Ani? Who broke your heart? Was it that guy? Tell me who it was Ani!' Seth growled, his voice fierce and angrier than I had ever heard before. I didn't know what to say as all words had abandoned me and I was left with nothing to say.

We had finally arrived at the car park and just as I was about to escape into class the doors locked. My eyes trailed back to Seth who had an mixture of emotions displayed on his handsome face that any other girl would have most probably died for.
