My eyes bore into the paper about to be picked up, 

"Wait, is this?" He turns to face me, his face totally and completely transparent, I wonder how long it would take me to die right here, my body heat could be over 107.6 , i'm sure that could kill me or my lack of oxygen you know lungs screaming for me to inhale or maybe the sudden dryness that run over me could send my body into dehydration. 

"Ye, yes. But i just got it, i mean before i passed out, it was," 

"You what, when did you pass out, i have been here for more than an hour, how could you just have gotten this?"  the disappointment in his voice leapt to my willing ears.

"I just woke up a while before you got here, i didn't know i passed out the doctor told me, before that the nurse gave me a note and before i read it I got a flashback of one of the notes that... that you gave me, you know from before, as i came back read that one, and everything faded away. I didn't get the time to tell you, I," 

"Didn't get the time! You could have started with that when i got here, like oh hey Jason we need to talk about something, or listen dumbass i got another fucking note!" he trough his hands up in the air acting all crazy as if someone is stalking him!

"Oh i'm so sorry, Jason must know everything, don't you think this person maybe knew what you were doing and now they are using your doings as inspiration, i'm the one in danger all over again so i'm fucking sorry for trying not to let this control my life!" my eyes water and my voice cracks, my head is blowing up and i feel it all coming out, some things must be left un said so i stopped myself from carrying on this conversation.

There is a knock on the door, the knob turns and the knocking continues,

"Miss Jones!" a know voice shouts,

"Miss Jones, are you okay?" the door knob turns again,

Jason unlocks the door and opens it with force,

"Sorry, the door was stuck, it happened to me too." the anger in him shows itself like mist on a rainy day,

"Okay then, Mis Jones as promised you may collect your things and head home, please just sign the release forms and you are so to speak free." she hands me the forms on a clipboard and a pen.

"Fill in the forms, i'll get your stuff." swiftly he packs my stuff and i start scanning the form for a place to plant my signature. 

"Thank you. Have a good day miss."

Back at Bell's dorm.

"Your mother just called, she wants us to have dinner there tomorrow night." he muffels,

"Can we please talk and try to sort this out, I'm sorry about the stuff I said back there and for not telling you right away but listen, i'm scared too, i mean i don't remember exactly what happened between us but what if this guy also has those intentions. I was going to tell you just not as soon as you would have liked, but now you know so what are we going to do?" I opened my door and dropped my keys on the table, Jason placed my bags on my bed and sat down beside them,

"Bell, I don't want to lose you again, we will figure this out but you need to trust me, i promise i have nothing to do with this, i won't ever again, I just got you back, I got my second chance with you, I will not mess it up this time. Let's make a list of the potential people and we'll go from there." with a pen in one hand and a notepad in the other he finally meets my eyes gaze, it looks like he's been crying for a whole week, the pain painted on his face makes me ache. 

We spent all night making a suspect list and trying to piece together all the notes and handwriting, we surfed the web and most likely it is someone you know and someone with very little social skills. 

After this he left and we made plans to go to the library tomorrow.

Paranoia poured into my soul as every tick made me shift, Ashley is of course not here. The shadows from between my door and the wooden floor made my eyes move from each side every ten minutes.

Knock Knock

"Who, uh who is it?" i rise to my feet stumbling over nothing, my hands shaking as i wait for the outside to answer,

"It's Cole." calmness overcame me,

"Oh," picking up my feet i unlock the door,

"Please come in, why are you out so late?" Cole walks past me and his scent spoiled my nostrils.

"Late? Bell it's only ten now. Your young, we're young this is the time to be alive." a smirk sinister smirk still sat on his face, his face, mm actually much more divine without the glasses. Sort of reminds me when i first met Jason, very much pulling you into a web. 

"Oh no, i just got out of the hospital a few hours ago, so i'm a bit partied out." a small smile gifted my lips, but wow, the strong eye contact between us is flaming! 

"Oh yes, are you better now? Can we have a little chat?" he sits down on Jason's spot,

"Well yeah, sure, what's up?" i fold my arms feeling a bit uncomfortable, i mean his aura is the reason i was cursed with this bad luck so i don't want to go anywhere near it. 

"Okay so i know you and Jason are still," he gulps,

"In love, but there is something you may need to know, do you remember you had a stalker? Well he was the guy you were looking for all that time and when i found out, i wanted to tell you but he tried to, to kill me, Bell I don't think that you are safe with him. He needs to take pills, to be stable, normal. If he doesn't he could go all crazy again. And I must also say that I fear it may be happening again." his eyes lowered and his voice remained tight. 

"Cole, i know, he told me and i know what he did was wrong and you only tried to help me but i forgave him, we are past that, but one question though, why do you think it's all happening again?" i sit down beside him,

"I saw this creepy guy going about the hospital when i came in, and he had an envelope. When i talked to Jason later that night something seemed off, like way off, something was bothering him. I just don't want you to get hurt again Bell," he took my hand into his,

"I have something else to tell you too, I, I need to know, I mean, Bell. Shit okay, Bell i like you, a lot, from the moment we met in Mr. Noah's class, when we had our first dance up until Jason tried to get rid of me. Even now, i tried to stay away, start over somewhere else but i couldn't, I was scared for you, I wanted to protect you, I was the one that loved you, truly. I need to know could there ever be a chance for us  to maybe try our hands at a real relationship. Leave Jason, leave here, start over again, with me?" his eyes searched deep within mine,

I think I forgot how to breath, he must be joking right? This can't be how he really feels?
