Recap:

Mystery POV:

"Did you give her the box?" He asked me.

"Yeah I did, I heard she fainted or something." I answered.

He smirked at me, "When will you see her next?"

"Tomorrow In school." I shrugged. "why?"

"Keep your eye on her the whole time. See who she is with and make sure to take some picture's because Zoe is going to get another box." He leaned back in his chair, with a evil smile on his face.

The man seriously was terrifying. Well I guess I would just have to wait and see Zoe in school. I got up and left the crazy man, the evil smile never left his face.

I feel horrible for doing that to Zoe but that man has things on me that I'm not willing to let anyone know..

Chapter 16:

Deafening silence. "Tate?" I asked worriedly. My answer was silence. I turned around to look at him, he had a blank look on his face, staring of into the distance. I shook his shoulder a little bit. "Tate?" Holy shit! What if he hates me now? What is going through his head right now, I wanted to smack him across the head with the chemistry book that was laying on my bed.

I started clicking my fingers in his face, what the hell is wrong with him? Oh shit! "Say something, please." I begged. No movement, nothing. He was still looking in the same place with the same stupid blank look on his face. If I hit him over the head with the book would he move then? I looked at the book, weighing my decision.

If I hit him with the book, I would probably concuss him. "Your adopted?" He whispered, I whipped my head around to look at him and instantly regretted it, I got a serious crick in my neck (A/N I thinks its a kink in your neck in America?).

"Yeah." I answered slowly. "So Chace isn't your biological brother?" He whispered so low, I was suprised I heard it. I shook my head, "No, I was adopted when I was 14 by Chace and his family, but I consider them my family, they helped me so much." I whispered back, I didn't trust my voice to speak.

I could feel the tears threatening to spill. I bit the inside of my cheek, to stop them falling over. He wrapped his arm around my waist and pulled me closer, I buried my head in the crook of his neck. He kissed my neck.

"Are you mad at me?" I mumbled into his neck.

He pulled me back to look at him and he looked at me disbelief written all over his face. He cupped my face and rested his forehead on mine, "Why would I be mad at you? Zoe you did nothing wrong for me to be mad at you." He answered and I could hear the honesty in his voice.

I let out a breath I never knew I was keeping in. I felt a weight lifted of my shoulders, "So do you want to talk about it?" He asked me, brushing a hair that fell over my face behind my ear, looking me straight in the eye.

I took a deep breath, I don't think I was ready to talk about anything but if I did it would be good. My voice came out in a whisper and he leaned in closer to hear what I was going say, "My mom died of cancer when I 7, so that left me with my dad." I stared at my fingers like they were the most interesting thing in the world when in fact, I was just trying to keep in the tears that were trying to force themselves out.
