Alec's POV:
The first time Alec saw Annabelle was on the first day of school. She had been wearing the simple school attire, her hair up in two simple french plaits.
In the moment he saw her, he froze. He didn't know why, but this girl drew him in, like a moth to a flame. She caught him with a shy smile as she walked through the school's doors.
And ever since then, he couldn't seem to forget her. She always seemed to catch his eye with whatever she was doing... Whether she was with her friends or simply reading a book in class: he always noticed her.
Then in her second or third week of freshman year, her popularity seemed to explode. Guys and girls alike noticed her more and Annabelle was shipped off to the land of fake smiles and fake friends.
The friends she had before slowly started drifting away while she made new ones every day.
Her secrets got ripped open and thrown around for the world to know.
Girls envied her. Boys chased her.
The shy girl she seemed to be, was slowly dragged over to a world where confidence was prone.
As two and a half years passed, Alec watched her become one of the most popular girls in the entire school. He studied her every move. Watched  how she'd throw away overenthusiastic smiles that never reached her eyes. See her try make excuses as to not go to some other social event. Frown when she would lie to her friends and escape into the labyrinth of books named a library...
She wasn't what everyone thought she was. She was simply human. A human wanting to be free.
And all Alec wanted was to give her that.
Now here he sat, staring at the girl in his bed. An IV was attached to her wrist, slowly pumping blood back into her system.
She was still unconscious from when she fainted two hours ago.
Alec still didn't know exactly what "two hours ago" was... It was all very confusing.
He couldn't understand why she'd do such a thing?! Was things really that bad that she felt the need to give up?!
He sighed. He'd just have to wait until she woke up. Then he could get some answers...
