Now what?

"I was involved in your father's death".

I freeze. I feel bile rise to the back of my throat. Surely he's just joking. Right?

I wait for him to start laughing or smirk but he doesn't and that's when I feel dizzy. I slowly push myself off the sofa and wobble.

Jason leaps towards me and he holds his arms out, incase I fall.

"Please. I want to go home" I mutter. He nods and grabs the keys off the kitchen counter.

Questions fill my head. Why didn't JJ hate him? Why did Adam and Cori let me come home with him? Why would any of them do this to me?

I get into his car before I realise I'm in his jumper. I don't care if I'm sat in my bra and pants, anything is better than wearing his clothes.

I peel off his hoodie over my head and I sit there, shivering. He snaps his head towards me and then looks back on the road.

"Look, Violet..." he mumbles.
"Stop. Just stop, Jason" I mutter.
"I didn't hurt your father. It doesn't matter if you forgive me or not but you don't need to sit there shivering because you don't want to sit in my hoodie."

I ignore him and look out the window, watching the trees fight to stay in the ground as the wind blows them back.

What does he mean he didn't hurt him?

We finally arrive at my house and I honestly I couldn't care less if my brothers see me in this state. I run across the driveway and to the door but Jason grabs my waist.

"Get the fuck off me!" I cry out, punching his arms. "Shh" he coos. But I don't. I scream, I kick, I punch. I'd do anything to get away from him.

The door swings open and Will is stood there with 5 men I don't know with Adam and of course Cori.

Adam pushes through the crowd and rips Jason off of me and 2 of the men send him to the car. I stand there, bawling my eyes out, into Adam's shoulder.

Cori pulls off his shirt and puts it on me. He trails his finger down my spine, making me shiver. "Did he do anything to you, Violet?" Cori asks as I go from Adam's arms to Cori's.

"No" I respond, burying my head into his chest. He rubs my back and kisses my temple. I turn around to look at Adam, Cori's arms still on my hips.

"Did you know?" I ask. Adam stays silent and rubs the back of his neck. I walk closer to him, "I said did you fucking know?!" I scream, tears streaming down my face.

"Yes, Violet. I knew" He admits. I fall back into Cori's arms. "And you let me go back home with him?" I ask.

How could they do this to me. The only person I could ever trust was my dad. And now he's gone, because of a 'bad friend group?' really?.

They think doing this to people is a good idea?

I push out of Cori's and look up at him, his eyes are staring back at me and he's giving me an apologetic smile.

He knew too.

I shake my head and his smile disappears. I pull off his shirt and give it to him and walk upstairs.

I don't go to sleep, I don't even touch my bed. I shut my bedroom door and lean against it, staring at the wall, tears flooding my eyes.

Cori has come up every hour, apologising but I just ignore him.

Why did no one tell me? I'm by myself, again.

What now?
