I woke up, looking around and rubbing my eyes. I was confused about where I was, but then everything that had happened yesterday came rushing back. I groaned softly and buried my face in the pillow. Why the hell did I kiss Ace? Oh, right. My dumb brain had suddenly gotten addicted to him.

I lifted my head and turned to look at Ace, who was still sleeping peacefully, completely unaware. Classic Ace. I smiled and gently ran my fingers through his hair. Maybe being addicted to him wasn't the worst thing. I liked him. That's what mattered.

Suddenly, Ace stirred and started groaning, rubbing his eyes. I chuckled. "Morning, sleepyhead," I teased.

He blinked at me, looking confused for a second. "Where...?" he began, before pausing, then his face softened as he recognized my voice. "Oh, hey, Cupcake."

I leaned forward and kissed him, then pulled back with a smile. "Had a good night with me?"

"Of course I did. You kiss well," he said with a small smirk.

I laughed, then climbed out of his bed and stretched. "Anyway, I gotta go. My parents are probably freaking out by now."

"Aww, come on, you're leaving already?" he pouted.

I gave him a seriously? look and chuckled.

"I have to, Ace. My parents literally track my every move," I said.

He pouted even more. "One more kiss?"

I rolled my eyes playfully, walked over to him, and gave him a quick peck on the lips. "Bye now." I turned and left before he could ask for anything else.

As I walked home, my mind started racing. Why was Ace so confused when he saw me awake? Did he expect me to be dead from how much I liked him? That was... dumb.

But then another thought hit me: 


What if he wanted me dead?
