The Lock To His Key

43. Jackson😅

Jackson Blackwood
Age:16

(Isabella's Pov)
We made eye contact, and his face dropped.
My mouth went dry.

"Say a word to anyone, and I'll make sure the whole school sees the video."

I forgot he knew legilimency.

His voice was haunting, his face, everything about him made me crumble.

My legs finally started functioning again.
"I need to get out." I said running out of class.

I sat on the floor, and tried catching my breath.

Why was he back?
What did he want?

All these questions played in my head, when I heard a voice.

"Isabella!"
The guys came and knelt next to me.

"What's wrong?" Asked Draco.

I can't say anything, not until I figure out what Jackson wants.

I felt my hands shake, and my vision go blurry.
My ability to speak vanished, I was dying.

Oh god.

"She's having a panic attack." Said Draco.
"I'll grab her water." Said Enzo.

He ran back to the classroom.

"Isa I know you can hear me don't feel pressured to reply. We're right here, you're okay."

A flash of everything I've been through with Jackson hit me.

I started sobbing uncontrollably.

"Hey, it's okay." Said Draco.

He held me close and stroked my back.

Enzo came back with my water.
"Open your mouth darling." Said Draco.
I couldn't, I felt paralyzed.

I felt so out of place, like I was in a dream.
It was a loss of awareness, I've never felt this before, I was terrified.

I felt Draco grab my face, and stare into my eyes. He spoke, but his voice was muffled.

Theo gently opened my mouth, and Enzo helped me drink.

"I don't know what's happening." I finally said.
"It's okay." Said Draco.

Draco leaned against the wall, and held me in his lap. He put his knees up so I was bordered in him. I wouldn't stop shaking and crying.

I felt defeated.

"It's not s-stopping."
"Shhh, you're okay breathe." Said Draco.

"I'm suffocating."
"If you were suffocating you would've already passed out." Said Draco.

I took deep breaths.

"There you go, that's a good girl." Said Draco.

I rested my cheek on Draco's chest, and he held me tighter. I never wanted to leave his lap,
I'm not ready to face Jackson.
