Cassia's POV
"Cassie? Cassia? Can you here me?" A voice questioned. I just groaned in response, everything hurt. It felt like my whole body was on fire. "Just close your eyes and go back to sleep, everything will be ok. I promise" that was the last thing before the darkness.

I awoke to see a white sterile room with no windows. Fuck. Some one has brought me to the hospital. Shit shit shitedy shit. Now I needed a cover story. At that moment Austin walked through the door. "Ok, here's your cover story, you were making some dinner but you forgot to get the carrots from the pantry. At the time you were cutting vegetables so you still had the knife in your hand. You accidentally tripped on the stairs, banged your head, then fell into the knife. But you can just say you can't remember much" he said all in one breath. I nodded and shot him a small smile. "I'm glad you're okay" Austin said relieved. "I'm glad I'm okay too" I replied quietly just as the doctor walked in. "Hello Cassia, my name is Doctor Matthews, I will be taking care of you while you are here. Do you remember anything about the accident?". He said. "Well... um... not really sorry" I answered. "Okay that's fine, you'll have to stay for another two weeks so we can monitor your concussion but after that you are free to leave. Your stab wound wasn't too deep and didn't puncture anything important" he stated in a rush before turning around and walking away. "Well he was rude" I muttered to myself.

'Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend som-' I cut of my ring tone for about the 20th time. It was Ky. Again. We'd had a massive fight over my step-dad, Ky wanted me to move out but I refused. I knew what would happen if I left, I wasn't about to take that risk. he had been calling me non stop and you'd think I'd answer him but I just didn't want to talk to him right now. It wasn't even just that fight, we'd had arguments about small, stupid things and to be honest, he was pissing me off.
I know it sounds stupid but I wanted to meet his family but every time I asked he made up some bullshit excuse and then left. We'd been constantly fighting and he said if my step-dad ever hurts me again then he's gonna call the police. I don't think I can deal with that, I know what will happen if Jack goes to jail, I go to foster care, and worse than that, Austin goes to foster care. I love my brother with all my heart and I know it would break his heart in foster care, and if his heart breaks then so will mine. Ky doesn't understand why I won't leave, I haven't told him about my fears and I don't really want to. We've drifted recently and I don't know if I trust him anymore.

Ky's POV

I called again but it just went straight to voice mail. "Dammit!" I screamed and lobbed my phone at the wall hearing a satisfying crunch.
"Wow bro you really need to calm down," my roommate Callum warned as he walked into the room. I shared a room with him in this stupid care home. I hated it here but I had nowhere else to go.
"I know bro but I'm just so stressed out" I replied running my hands through my hair.
"It's that girl again, isn't it?" he sighed. I didn't reply. "Look dude, if she makes you this stressed out, then I think you're wasting your time." I glared at him and said "you don't know her like I do" before storming out of the room, slamming the door behind me. I quickly jogged down the stairs and almost made it out until Maurine came out of the kitchen.
"Where are you going love? Dinner is almost ready!" she exclaimed.
"I'm going out" I replied gruffly not turning to look at her.
"Well you're not allowed, it's getting late. And it's raining!" she answered sternly.
"Oh just fuck off!" I threw the door open and walked out in the rain, leaving Maurine stood dumbfounded. I rolled my eyes. It was as if she had never heard the word 'fuck' before. I ran my hands through my hair and sighed. I shouldn't have taken it out on Maurine, she was only being nice, but I just can't help it. Cassia's blocking me out. She won't talk to me and it's driving me crazy. I love her and she doesn't see it! I sit on a park bench and put my head in my hands. This is all my fault, if I hadn't pushed her to move out then she would still be talking to me!
"Ky? Is that you?" I hear a tentative voice say. I look up and gasp. No, I think. It can't be, can it? ....
