" Enoch you don't understand, I could really hurt you, and I don't want to do that " I told him, thinking this over again.

" Hayley, I just wanna see what you're capable of " he told me.

I made up my mind. I looked around my room, but I couldn't find anything that I could actually hurt myself with. " Well, in order for me to hurt myself, I would need something to do it with, and there isn't anything here " I said.

" Well, that's a shame, isn't it " he said. I joined him back on the bed, his eyes not leaving me.

" What's the worst pain you've ever felt " he asked me.

I thought of previous events that caused me somewhat of emotional pain in my life. Then, I remembered, in Year 10, my first real boyfriend. He cheated on me, with my only real friend at the time, and they dated behind my back for six months. The heartbreak I encountered after that, was the most painful thing I've ever felt.

" Heartbreak " I said, voice flat.

He tensed up. " Heartbreak? "

" Yeah, heartbreak, the feeling of your heart dropping to you're stomach, shattering into a million and one pieces. You're head hurting, wondering what you did to deserve this pain, and thinking for a period if you deserved it. Heartbreak ruins a person, your whole body numb, no sense of feeling what so ever. It's just, indescribable " I spoke.

" Who made you feel that way " he asked, inching closer.

Memories started to flash in my mind, like a familiar movie. " Enoch, is rather not talk about it " I told him, hoping he'd understand.

He did. He left it at that.

" Hayley, there's something I need to tell you " he said.

My mind was expecting him to say something cheesy, but what he said, was everything but cheesy.

" I just need you to know, I've never warmed up to a person this quickly before, I'm always heartless, not caring about other people is my specialty. But you, you're different. I can feel it. You make me smile, nobody has ever made me smile, a real smile that is before. And it's even more insane because it's still your first day " he said, his hand going to the back of his neck.

" What I'm trying to say Hayley, is that I like you, not in a romance way, but I really appreciate you, and I'm actually glad you broke my jar of hearts earlier " he said, smiling, flashing me his perfect teeth.

I smiled, blush so evident on my face, you'd think I've been sunburned. He then looked me deep in the eyes. " It's getting late, I should probably get back to my room before Miss Peregrine catches me " he said.

I nodded, not able to utter a word. He stood up, and I did too. I led him to my door, opening it for him. " See you tomorrow " he said.

" Yeah, and everyday after that " I said, smiling.

He chuckled, before walking away, and up the next flight of stairs.

a/n : this will be the shittiest chapter I ever write, but it's just a short filler. I wanted to finish the last chapter, I feel as if I left it in a weird place haha I'm sorry.
