Emma Carters
       

 I wake up the next morning to the sun shines through the curtain. I yawn then rub my eyes for a few seconds so that I can see clearly. I turn around and see Jason is sleeping peacefully beside me. He looks so cute when he's asleep. I can't help but poke his cheek. He stirs for a second before falling back asleep. I smile then keep poking his cheek until he wakes up. 

       

 "Stop poking me." Jason whines with his morning voice then tries to cover his face. 

       

 I giggle then poke him again. "But I'm bored." He ignores me and covers his face again. "Jason, as much as I know you look cute when you sleep, I'm bored and hungry." No respond. "Fine, be that way." I say then get out of bed, but before I could get out of bed, I feel someone's arms wraps around my waist. 

       

 "Don't go." Jason murmurs sleepily. "Stay for another ten minutes, then I'll take you out for breakfast. Please?" Jason looks at me with his puppy dog face that I can't say no. I sigh then nod. He pulls me closer to his bare chest. "I love you so much. I hope you know how much you mean to me." Jason mumbles. 

       

 I smile widely at him before reply, "I love you too Jase and you mean a lot to me too."

       

 Jason smiles widely but then it slowly fades away. "Really? Even after what I did to you? I mean I kidnapped you, I practically stole you from your family and your happiness, your freedom. Don't forget I used to hit you few times. I know you won't forgive me easily." I look at him in the eyes and I see pain and sadness. He quickly gets up and sits on the bed which I copy. 

       

 "Yes, you kidnapped me and you hit me. And yes, I don't forgive you easily. I admit it, I still don't fully forgive you after what you did to me." I pause and look at him. His eyes show nothing but pain, it's like he's about to cry. I quickly continue, "But that doesn't mean you stole all my happiness. You might be a little strict when it comes to my freedom, but I totally understand why you do that. You're just afraid I might leave you and never come back or you did it just to protect me. And the most important thing is I love you Jason. I'm happy when I'm with you. It doesn't matter what you used to do to me, it's the past now, just as long as you promise you won't do it again." 

        

Jason then quickly pulls me into a hug and hugs me tightly. "I know what I did was bad and I regret it so much. I promise you I won't ever do that again. And I promise I will try to make it up to you, even if that means days, months, years or maybe until I die. I promise you Emma. But please, promise me you won't leave me. I love you so much." 

        

I feel a few tears running down my cheek. "I love you too Jase. And I promise I won't leave you, ever."       

        

We're just hugging for the next few minutes, enjoying each other company until I hear my stomach growls. Jason chuckles. "Okay, now get ready and we'll go get some breakfast. See you in fifteen minutes babe." Jason says then walks out to get ready. 

        

Exactly fifteen minutes later, I am done getting ready and that include taking a bath. I am wearing a white Céline Paris t-shirt with black skirt and white flats. I put my hair into a high ponytail before walk out from the room. 

      

"Are you done?" Jason asks out of no where which makes me jump slightly. He chuckles and kisses my cheek. I nod and before we leave the house, Jason yells, "We're going out to grab some breakfast." I'm pretty sure only one person hear that.

We decide to have breakfast at IHOP since I haven't been there for quite long. "You got something on your face!" I laugh. Jason has some whipped cream on his nose. He wipes his nose using back of his hand and it still left some. I giggle and bent forward to wipe it off for him. "There. It's gone."

       

 "Thank yo-" His sentence is cut off by something that catches his eyes. I turn around and see Nick? But instead walking toward us, he walks to the creepy bald man. What is he doing? I turn back to Jason and see his face harden. What's wrong between those two? When I'm about to ask Jason, he interrupt me, "Emma I want you to stay in the car and hide there. Don't go anywhere and stay there until I got there. I have a feeling it's not safe here. Got it?" He asks as I nod. He tosses me the car key and tells me go.

       

 I walk out and heading to where he parked his car. I don't know it's only me being paranoid or it actually has someone following me. I turn around and see no one following me. You're just being paranoid because Jason told you it's not safe. Calm down Emma. I quickly unlock the car and get it before lock it. I can't help but being scared. I hide in a place where no one can see me until Jason comes back so we can go home.

       

 A few minutes later, I hear someone knocks the window. I peek up from the place I'm hiding and see a guy I don't know. I ignore him and keep my head down. Where the hell are you Jason? The guy knocks again, this time he knocks loudly and add, "I know you're inside. Get out before I shoot the whole car! Get out or die. You choose." The guy yells. What am I suppose to do? "In the count until three, if you don't get out, I'll shoot." I peek up and see the guy is holding a gun. Dammit, he's not joking. 

      

  "One.. Two.. T-" Before he could count until three, I quickly get out from the car and face the guy. He has smirk on his face. I give him a disgusted look, but he doesn't seem to care. "Good thing that you're out. It means I don't have to kill a beautiful girl." He says as he touches my face. I slap his hand away and glare at him. 

      

  "What do you want?" I hiss. 

       

 "To get you." That's all I heard before everything went black.
