I looked out the window and didn't see him. How could.he just disappear into thin air. Was that even possible? This scaring me to much, knowing that Tristen is in danger because of me. If only he would listen to me. We can go anywhere safe.  Because once we think we find somewhere safe we never are. Jake will be back will more people. And that can only mean I will be taken away from Tristen.

Someone grabbed my hand and pulled me into their chest. I rested my head on his chest. I cried silently on his chest. He stroked my hair and I began to feel peaceful again. The cries started to stop and I looked up at him. He wiped my tears away and kissed my lips gently. "The car is all ready to go." he smiled.

He draped a blanket around my shoulders and carried me outside to his car. When we were outside I looked around for Jake. But I saw nothing. Not even a trace of him. Tristen gently placed me in the car and walked over to his seat.

BANG!  

I spun around to see glass broken from the car. Tristen was looking all around for who ever did this. But he eventually gave up and ran over to me. "Is everything okay. Did you get hit or anything." I shook my head and motioned it to the rock. It had a note on it's

Run and hide but I will always find you.
-Jake

I worried sick out of my mind. I looked around for Jake before I got in the car but I didn't find him. I can't do this. This is becoming to hard for me right now. Tristen grabbed my face in his hands and looked me in the eyes. "I will never let him hurt you. He is a coward and won't show himself. We shouldn't be worried." he smiled and kissed my lips. He got in the drivers seat and we drove off.

How could he not be worried. I'm freaking out over here. He can't just tell me not to be worried when a rock just broke his window and said he will find me. So he can't tell me not to be worried cause I am freaking out. He doesn't know anything about how hard Jake will try. He will try until he is dead. This is all my fault. If only I would have never would have gone out with Jake in the first place. Then all of this would have never happened.

We arrived a house in the woods. It looks like it had been abandoned for a long time. But if Tristen thinks it is safe well I guess I should believe that it is safe. He comes around to my side of the car and carries me in. We enter the house and I am right it has be abandoned for a long time.

I can't help but think about everything that has happened. Tristen getting hurt is all my fault. I should have never met Tristen. That way he wouldn't have ever gotten hurt. This is just to much for me to handle. I have to get out of here.

I walk to the bedroom door and listen very closely to hear if anybody is down there. I hear nobody, perfect. I open the door slowly and walk to the front door. I turned around and say, "I'm sorry Tristen." and I walk out of the house.

I was stupid to even think that this would work out. I don't have a great past and that is coming back to haunt me. And the past is hurting Tristen whenever he is with me. I'm stupid, I'm just so stupid.

--------------------------------------------

I woke up with a strange feeling. Like someone is watching me. I stretch my arms out and I feel fluffy blankets? Wait how did I get back here? I look around and I am in the abandoned house again that Tristen took me too. I turn around and see Tristen staring at me. And he doesn't look to happy.

"Tristen, I can explain." I pleaded.

He got up and looked me dead in the eye, "Please then Kyndall explain to me everything. Explain to me why we walked out of this house. Explain to me why I try to keep you safe but you always have another option. But the one thing I want to explain to me is why you keep breaking my heart?" he started pacing back and forth.

"Look I'm sorry Tristen but I'm telling you my past isn't great." he tried to say something but I cut him off. "I can't let you get hurt anymore and that is final." I down.

"The only time I get hurt is when you break my heart. You keep walking out on me. And the thing is Kyndall I would never walk out on you. Just please tell me why you keep doing this." he lifted my chin so our eyes met. I shook my head no. "Look! Look what he did to you! He abuses you and now you saying you want to go back to him." he started getting angry.

I stood up, "Look Tristen! I can handle the abusing. I have my whole life with him. But the one thing I can't handle is you getting hurt because of me."

He slammed his fist against the wall. I flinched and looked away. "After everything I did for you this is how you repay me. By telling me you rather be with him than me. Than so be it Kyndall. I'm glad everything I did was for nothing!" he yelled and slammed the door.

I fell on the bed and started to cry. I cried until I fell asleep thinking about Tristen.
