Takes place after Chapter 20. Enjoy!
It was around eleven when I was awoken by the noise of someone pounding at my door. At first I was terrified that it might be Sparrow to come back for me or worse, but when I looked through my peephole and saw Jason I was more confused than anything. Still I opened my door.
When he saw me he flashed a smile. "Cupcake girl. Hi again. Is this your idiot?"
He maneuvered something around to view until I realized who it was. My eyes widened at the sight of Gage hanging limply by Jason's side, his face a bloody mess, and his fists bruised up. My heart felt like it stopped.
"Oh my God!" I held the door open wider for him to step through. "Please, come in. Just place him in my room."
"Which is?"
"Back here," I lead the way hurriedly. Before Jason reached my room I threw aside a few clothing items and pulled back my bedding for him to lay Gage in. "Fudge muffins, he looks bad."
Jason frowned. "I thought you liked him?"
I was about to say something that wasn't so mannerable when I heard Gage groan, "Katy . . ." and immediately I was by his side.
"I'm here," I was about to take his hand but thought better of it when I noticed it was more bruised up than I thought. I turned to Jason who wore a scowl. "What happened?"
