** Cali's POV ** 

I wake up in the middle of a road. So unfamiliar with the settings, I look around. It's lightly snowing and the ground was freezing. There was fog, making it hard to see long distances away. The only source of light was the lit street lamps. I get on my feet and start slowly making my way down the cold street, hugging myself for warmth. All I could see was fog, apart from the near by lamps and the forest to my left. In the distance I could see something familiar and it instantly put a smile on my face. "Jc!" I shouted as I got closer. "Hey beautiful." He said hugging me. "I want to show you something." He said taking my hand and leading me out of the street and into the forest. It was dark in there and the fog was thicker. I couldn't see the trees next to me so I just had to trust that Jc knew where he was going.I knew now, that we definitely weren't in LA anymore. My grip became tighter as it felt like we where going down hill. Then all a sudden we stopped. "Jc, where are we?" I asked curiously. "Somewhere safe, where no one can hurt you." He said and kissed my forehead. "Stay here, I'll be right back." He says and disappears into the fog. I waited for about five minutes until I decided to go look for him. "Jc!" I called out stumbling through the bushes. The deeper I walked into the forest the more the fog cleared up. As it cleared I looked at the ground. "Oh my god Jc no!" I say as I brake down in tears. His body laid on the ground and his stomach was ripped open and I knew he was dead. I fell to my knees and tears just flooded down my cheeks. Then I heard growling in the bushes behind me. I quickly turned to see a pair of red eyes in the darkness. Then I blacked out. 

I woke up screaming and in tears. "Whats wrong!" Jc yelled as he ran over to me. He raped his arms around me and pulled me closer, stroking my hair to comfort me. It was silent for half a second. "I thought you where dead." I said through my tears. "It's alright baby girl. I'm here, I'm not dead." He said still stroking my hair. "And I'm going to stay with you no, ok." He said letting go and wiping my tears away. I slightly smiled and nodded my head. "Now lay back down baby, you'll hurt your stitches." Jc said gently guiding my head back to my pillow. "My stitches?" I say confused. "Don't you remember what happened?" Jc asked me. "No." I replied really confused. "You went and met up with Alex and she stabbed you in the stomach." He said looking me in the eyes. "Where is she now?" I asked him. "She gone, dead." He replied. That's all I needed to hear. "So how long do I need to stay here?" I asked him. "The doctor said you can't come home for at least three more days, but I'm going to stay here until you're better." He says getting up. "Thank you." I say quietly. "You're welcome." He says with a smile. 

"I'll be back later." Jc says opening the door and letting Kian in. "Hey Kiki" I say smiling at him. "Hey bub, how are you going?" He asks sitting down on the chair next to the hospital bed. "I'm ok." I say slightly nodding my head. "The doctor said you can come home in two days." He says looking at me. "Ugh two days of gross hospital food? How am I going to survive." I say pulling a dramatically sad face. "Sorry bub but I can't get you anything, you're on special dietary needs because you got stabbed in the stomach." He says. "It's alright." I say looking to the floor. "But I'll come and visit you everyday, and tomorrow I'll bring everyone to see you." He says with a grin. "Awe, thanks Kiki." I say smiling. "Well I've got to go now, but I'll see ya tomorrow." He said as he gave me a hug. "Alright bye Kian." I say as he approaches the door. "Love you, and stay strong." He says and shuts the door behind him. "Love ya too." I say as if he could hear me. 

About 2 minutes later Jc comes back in. "Hey princess" He says as he closes the door. "Hey." I say smiling. He came and sat on the bed beside me. "You don't have to stay with me, if you don't want to." I say looking over at the white wall across from me. "Cali, I found your note." He said looking into my eyes. "Oh, really?" I ask a little embarrassed. "Yeah. You said that I'm your world and that you think I'm the one." He says continuing. "Well you're my everything and I'm not going to leave you. Because I almost lost my everything." He said looking into my eyes, then looking to the ground. I sat up and kissed his cheek. "I love you so much." I whispered quietly. "I love you more." He whispered back. Before I could protest he kissed my lips gently. We pulled away and smiled. It was about 6pm and it was slowly getting dark outside. "Jc, its cold." I say to him. "Yeah it is." He says getting up and closing the window. "Could you come lay with me?" I asked him. "Of course." He said and laid next to me putting his arms around me. I soon felt my eye lids getting heavier, and soon enough I feel asleep. 

** Jenn's POV ** 

Yesterday Alex let me go. She's so stupid, I mean if you have a hostage you don't just let them go but thank god she did. The cut on my face is healing, it's no very deep so I should be ok. I'm at the guys house with Andrea for then night, she's gotten a lot better but her cast can't come off for a while. Me, Andrea, Kian and Ricky are sitting on the couch watching The Heat. I get up off the couch. "Don't you want to watch the movie?" Andrea asks me. "Nah, I've seen it like 20 times." I say and head up stairs. I enter Connor's room. "Hey guys." I say closing the door behind me. "Hey Jenn." Connor said spinning in his chair. "What you guys up to?" I asked Connor and Chelsea. "Being random" Chelsea said covering her hands with the sweater of Connor's that she was wearing. "Do you guy want to get some food?" I ask them. "Yes, I'm starving!" Chelsea says getting up. "Nah, I'm fine." Connor says turning back to his computer. "Please come with me Connor." Chelsea asked him pulling his hand. "Ok fine. You're so annoying sometimes." Connor said laughing and stood up. Chelsea made a fake puppy dog face and Connor started tickling her and making her laugh. Then they kissed. "Ok ok. Come on Jenn hash tag forever alone is right here and she's hungry. Now come on." I say sarcastically and they follow me down stairs. "Anyone wanna come to get some dinner?" I ask Ricky, Kian and Andrea before we head out the door. "Nah, we're good." Kian says. "Yes please! Wait for me!" Ricky says getting off the couch. As we open then door someone we all dreaded of seeing was standing there about to knock. "Sam, what are you doing here?!?"
