Mariska's P.O.V

I wish I would've told Jacelyn sooner, I just thought it was a joke or he was just threatening I didn't think it was serious, but I guess it is serious. I walk through the house to find Jacelyn's mom, Tara. I've been searching through this house for a while and I guess she's left so I'll just leave a note saying Jacelyn is with me.

After I write the note, I leave it on the kitchen counter and go back to the bedroom with Jacelyn. When I walk in she's all packed and ready to go, sitting on her phone. When she notices me walk in she pops up. "Why do we have to leave? Where are we going?" She bombards me with questions.

"One thing at a time. Just chill out. We're going to Fort Payne. That's where Micah lives," Micah is my boyfriend of 2 years and he moved after we graduated. He left me and Ider, and went to Fort Payne. We see each other still. He's working a lot this summer and I haven't seen him a lot lately but I know he'll let me and Jacelyn stay there for a while.

Jacelyn's P.O.V

"Well, will he let us both stay?" I ask in a voice of uncertainty. Me and Micah have had it out our fair share of times because of things he done that hurt Mariska.

"Duh, you know he will. I just have to tell him we're on our way and I'll explain to both of you what's going on when we get there," she assures me.
What's happened? Why can't I know now? Did Jake do something? I'm so worried about the text Davis sent me. I didn't respond to him, and I think he's getting worried about me, especially after Jake's arrival at my house. I decide to text him, telling him I'm fine.

"Do you have everything you'll want or need?" She asks, looking at my overflowed bag.

"Erm, obviously," I laugh. "I should be good for a while. Won't you need stuff?" I ask her.

"Yeah, we've got to stop by my house and tell mom where were going. While we're there I'll grab my stuff."

"How long do you think we'll stay?" I ask, worried.

"I told you we would be back for you birthday, so like probably until late Monday,"

"Okay, I'm so worried. I want to know what's going on."

"You will soon enough," she sighs.

*1 hour later

After stopping by Mariska's house for her to grab her stuff, we headed off to Fort Payne. From here that's a 30-something minute drive. The entire car ride I stared out the window and wonder what possibly could be going on.

We're here at Micah's and I'm pretty sure him and Mariska have been hugging for 20 minutes, not letting go. I wish I could have something like that, but I don't know if I ever will be able to because of Jake. Maybe I should move out of state, I think I should. I'm going to talk to Mariska about it later. After they finish their forever long embrace, Micah invites us inside, he carries Mariska's bag and I grab mine. After he dhows us around and shows me where I'll be sleeping, we finally sit down in his living room and we both ask simultaneously, "so what happened?"

Mariska's P.O.V

As soon as we sit down my lover and my bestfriend ask me what's happened. I don't know if I want to explain everything but at the same time I want to because I had to bring Jacelyn here, somewhere Jake wouldn't think she'd be. Well at least I hope not. I give them both a nervous smile and begin to explain, " well a few weeks ago Jake texted me and I swear Jacelyn I was going to tell you but I completely forgot. He said that he need you back and he wasn't going to stop until he got you back. He said the next time he got you alone, I'd wished that I'd been with you 24/7. Of course, I was freaking out. Like what the hell do I do? Ya know" i begin to stare at the ground. "I don't know what he's gonna do if he gets you alone and I don't want to find out, ever. I have been thinking a while about if this situation ever popped up, and I thought we could move to Idaho. You're almost 18 and free, and I've always wanted to live or visit there. So why not Idaho?" I nervously smile

Jacelyn looks like she's just been shot, she's pale, and staring at the ground. What do I do?

"Uhm, Jacelyn are you okay?"

She snaps out of whatever trance she was in. "Yeah, yeah I'm here. Sorry. So I guess we're here until he finds me or we think it's time to go?" She asks me.

"I-i don't know. I guess we'll just wait and see." I try to give her a positive answer but in bad situations like this I can't be all that positive.
