          * JACE'S POV*

   *KNOCK*  *KNOCK*

I'm waiting for her to open the door so I can see I wasn't just imagining her. Her face still hasn't processed in my mind, I can't believe what I just saw yet I know it's true.

" It took me a while to get her dorm number. I just hope I'm knocking on the right door." Im mentally talking to myself wondering if she is even in there.

My thoughts froze as the door opened and I saw her face. Her eyes were red and puffed as if she had been crying the whole time. As she looked up at me her tears halted as she took in a quick gasp for air. She looked like she was turning blue, as if the oxygen flowing through her was cut off.

She was completely frozen in place and she had no words to express her feelings neither did she have any more tears to shed. She cried herself dry I assume.

She quickly tries to attempt to shut the door and lock it. I react fast and shove my foot through the door so she ended up slamming it on my foot, luckly I was wearing boots otherwise that would have fucking hurt.
I push the door open and walk past her, grabbing her hand and leading her deeper into the  room while I shut the door behind us. She has no words, and her body shivers at the touch of my skin. This isn't how I remembered how she used to feel. But I don't give a shit!

"L..l..let me g..go" she attempts to say but the words leave her mouth in a stutter and she is so terrified that she's actually trembling.

I don't leave her, and I squeeze at her arms even harder. Before saying to her...

"What the hell are you doing here? Of all places. Couldn't you have enrolled somewhere else?"

"Wh..w..h..why?" She answers sobbing and gasping for air before she finishes the word.

"Why! Why!  I'll tell you the fuck why!" I say completely frustrated as she tries to act all innocent like she doesn't know what the hell I'm talking about.

"Now that you know I'm here, your going to tell the whole fucking school what I did and how I know you."

"B..but Jace, I..I don't kn..ow what you me...?"
"Just shut up! Don't use your fucking  tears on me. They won't work and they never will." I say as i watch her with the confused and frightened look on her face when I cut her off before she finishes.

"Please, stop shouting my head's hurting and  people will hear us." Her voice is much more firm then it was before.

"I don't give a shit about your head and let them hear. I don't give a shit about them either." I wasn't just going to let her tell me what she wants and I would listen. I'm not her lap dog to obey her.
But I think I should lower my voice, I don't want people to know I was here.

"Now you listen to me, I came here to tell you that you better not tell anyone how you know me, or what I did to you." I say earning a frightened look from her as I continue "or you will regret it."

"I don't know what your talking about, what do you mean?" She says with confusion written all over her face... I don't think she knows what I'm talking about.

"For fuck sake I'm talking about the reason I left you! And how I know you." I'm sick and tired of having to spoon feed her the explaination. Why doesn't she get it?

"If anyone gets to know about that especially Alex, I'm totally screwed." I say thinking about what he would do to me.

"B..but Jace, why would I tell people you left me 'coz I wasn't talking?" She says,  looks like the stutterin'  has come back.
