Jayden:

She scowls at me before heading to the actual exit. I trail behind her having grabbed the clothes I came here in.

I don't think she realises that I can hear every angry mutter that leaves her mouth. Surprisingly they aren't all bad about me... They also include a lot of her being being stupid enough to not realise she was going the wrong way.

"So how are you feeling?" I ask, initially I held back seeing as it was the wrong timing and I didn't want to remind her.

"A little tired." She mumbles slowing down so that I'm beside her. I suppose she's forgiven me.

A comfortable silence settles between us. I don't want to disrupt the peace though I can't help but wonder why she blames herself so much for her sister's death. Maybe it's just a natural response to such an event... though I can't help but wonder if there is something more.

I walk into Jade having been lost in thought I didn't realise she stopped walking. She wraps her arms around my torso, placing her head against my heart. "Thank you." she mumbles her voice comes muffled.

"For what?" her unpredictability is refreshing but very confusing.

"For not being different... for not treating me like something fragile or despicable." Her voice starts to get heavier with emotion. I wrap my arms around her to give a response to her hug.

"Why would you think, even for a second, that I would find you despicable?" Anger seeps into my tone at her suggestion.

"You... you hesitated when I got hit from the ball. I thought maybe-"

I cut her off before she can say any more.

"You thought wrong. There was a reason as to why I hesitated but don't, for even a second think it is because of something like that. Do you want to know what I think of you?! I think you're so strong and amazing to have gone through that and still have such a bubbly character. To not wallow in pity and try to live your life for whatever reason- is admirable. You have courage, heart, compassion albeit a little impulsive, reckless but that makes you, you. That makes you my secret and nothing will never change that."

I feel frustration at her having even assumed that she was in any way bad because of my hesitation. But what I did was for her sake. she doesn't realise how glass like she is here. How easy it could be for someone to hurt her... To get to me. It's not like I can tell her though...

She would probably freak out. Or maybe do something reckless in attempt to help out. I never know with Secret and I'm not willing to risk anything like that happening to her.

She sniffles a little.

"why are you crying?!"

"I don't know why I'm crying okay! I'm a weirdo... I think I'm bipolar." I find myself chuckle at her response.
