Chapter 4.

-Jason-

I decided I would leave her for a little while. She needed to cool down and so did I. I dragged my body to my bedroom and ruffled through my wardrobe. I pulled out a pair of grey joggers, a plain black top and a grey jacket that matched the joggers.

Then I made my way to the bathroom and took a shower. The hot drops of water felt soothing against my skin. The heat radiated off of me like a heater.

She will begin to love me, won't she? She had to. I need her to make me a better person. She's got to make everything right. I want to make her proud someday. But I can't do that without her guidance. She is my motive.

I jumped out of the shower and got dressed, then headed over to Lexi's room.

I tapped on the door lightly, but got no response. So I opened the door and walked in. There, I saw her sitting on the bed.

She was cuddling her knees which were brought up to her face, and she was crying. It sounded like she was whispering but I couldn't quite make it out. I shrugged it off and walked over to her.

"D-don't touch me" she said. Her head turned and looked up to face me. I could tell she was angry, scared, it was written all over her face.

"You're a monster!" She screamed and pushed me back, making me stumble. I knew this should have made me angry, but it didn't. I knew it was wrong. I was expecting her to feel like this at the start. But she will get over it, in time.

I tried to move towards her but she backed away. The look on her face made me feel so horrible.

She looked terrified and it was all because of me. I've made her feel this way. I'd never seen a look on her face like this. If looks could kill, I would be dead.

I shoved the thoughts to the back of my head. I can't let her treat me like this. If I do, she will think she can walk all over me and I can't have that. I need to be the stronger person.

I walked back towards her, expecting to be pushed away, again.

And just as I expected, she did. But before it could effect me again, I grabbed her wrists, using her weight to stop me from falling.

I gripped onto them a little tighter. "Stop" I muttered.
"Never!" She said. "I won't let you force me to live here"
"Oh yeah?"
"Yeah" she spat.

"And how do you expect to stop me?"
"You can't make me if I'm dead." Once she said that, I laughed.
"I won't let you die, stupid girl"
"I'll starve myself. You won't have a choice. You'll watch me die and it will be your fault." She said and I scoffed.

-Lexi-

I instantly regretted what I had said. Now I had a sharp pain in my cheek. He slapped me. How dare he. So much for 'love'.

I clutched my cheek and fell to the floor as more tears erupted from my eyes.

He didn't even say sorry or anything. He just left the room. If this is how he's going to treat me, I am most definitely not going to fall in love with him. Not that I would anyway. He took me from my family. From Charlie, from Carly. The only friends I really had.

I just sat there feeling numb. Should I apologise for what I said? Maybe it hurt him.

No. He has no right to do this to me. He took me away from my happiness. He deserves everything that came out of my mouth. It's the truth and it's not my fault he didn't like it.

I crawled myself over to the bed and went to sleep. I hoped maybe I'd wake up and this would all just be a dream. But I knew that wouldn't happen.
