"Jade!" Her voice screeches as she yells at me.
"I am so sorry!" is all I can say for sneaking out.
"Where have you been? Do you realize what time it is?" She stands up and looks at me with anger. "I…I'm, sorry." I just repeat myself not sure what else to say.
She studies me for a second, "You went to the beach?" I look down and see that I'm in my bikini and shorts… not the best outfit to get caught in.
"Yeah…" I say looking down, not wanting to say anything else.
"Oh my God, Jade." Her voices completely switches from anger to concern.
I look up at her and she looks heart broken. "Did a boy do this to you?" Her eyes focus on my neck.
Shit, I knew someone was going to find out.
"Are you sneaking out to see a boy?" She quickly comes towards me. Her hand grabs my shoulder as she looks at my neck. "Are you okay? Do we need to call the police?"
She pulls out her phone, and I quickly put it down.
"It's not a big deal." I state pushing her away.
"Not a big deal?" She repeats mortified.
She takes a deep breath and some of her anger comes back, "We'll talk about this tomorrow with your father." She walks away but stops at the door.
Her face barely softens, "If you need anything, let me know." She walks out and shuts the door. My whole body numb from absolutely everything. I dont even change my clothes, but just go to sleep.

I walk into the kitchen to make breakfast and see an empty mug and newspaper from where Mark was. I pour myself a glass of orange juice and sit on the counter.
I reach over and grab the newspaper, the front page is the progress of the new community center. I turn the page and my whole body burns with shock.
"Last night a young man was found stabbed to death on the beach. No cameras or witnesses so far have been able to give details on this case..."
I quickly shut the paper, I cant read anymore.
The orange juice in my stomach turns, making me queasy. The realization just hits me.
I saw Zayn kill a guy, went in a car with him… and then kissed him. Oh my God…
I start freaking out and panicking. What was I thinking??
I guess last night I was in shock? Denial?
He probably only kissed me because he knew I liked him… and he knew if he did that, he would have me under his little spell and then he knew I wouldn't tell anyone!
Oh, God. That's what happened.
That's the only thing that makes sense!
He would never like me, his reaction at the party was real and all this was a show. I feel so stupid.
I stand there for a second not sure what to do, my mind rushes with so many thoughts it's hard to stay focused.
I look and see the stupid paper, I immediately throw it away.
After I've had time to calm down, I go back in the kitchen to makes something to eat. As soon as I open the fridge, I hear a faint knock. I walk over to the door and don't see anyone through the glass.
