"How did you get here?" i sat up in my bed, my voice shaky as i watch Derek enter my room. "You thought i wouldn't find you? You thought i'd let you get away that easy? We didn't finish what we started."

His voice is so demanding and scary, with every word he says he gets closer.

I try to scream but nothing came out, why couldn't i speak? His hand is over my mouth now as he crawls on top of me.

I try to tell him to stop, i'm screaming.

Why can't anyone hear me screaming?!

"Emma! Emma!" Derek yells. "Emma!" wait that's not derek.

I wake up to Cody's hands shaking me. "You're okay! You're okay!" he repeats staring at me like he's just seen a ghost. I'm trembling and i feel like i can't breathe. The dream was so vivid, so scary. Tears form in my eyes.

Cody lays down next to me grabbing me into him laying my head on his shoulder.

"You're okay. You're safe. I promise." he reassures me he pats my back in circular motions. I let tears come out as he just cradles me. I'm so lucky to have him here with me. God, I miss Caspar.

My breathing is still so rapid. "It's okay Em, just listen to my heartbeat. Count how many times you hear it beat, focus on that and only that." he says calmly.

I do as he says and I finally stop crying. "Please don't leave. I'm so scared." i croak. "I won't, I promise."

Joe's POV
I wake up in the middle of the night to take a piss when I see Emma's door wide open. Which is weird because she always closes it. I know that because when we were younger I told her this story of a clown who steals children if they leave their door open while sleeping. I can't remember why i made that up, but i know it was funny to see her face afterwards. But, ever since then she's kept it closed.

Curious, i walk over to her room to see if she was alright. When i peer in i see her with Cody, they're both cuddling asleep.

I instantly step back from the door way.

Rage over takes me.

Was she lying when she told me they were just friends? Why would she do that? My chest is in flames again as i feel this burning desire to snap his neck. Violent, i know.

I just can't help it though. Every time i see her with a guy who isn't me it makes me mental.

It made me mad when she asked Cody to take her home instead of me but now i know why.

I don't understand how she could lie straight to my face. For fucks sake, i told her how i felt! I thought she felt it, too! This must be her way of getting back at me from when i called her a slut. It actually sickens my stomach to think that she could do this.

I go back to my bed and bury my face in my pillow. I won't cry, i'll get even.

Sorry it's quite short!
It's 6 in the morning and i haven't slept yet so do excuse if it's a bit eh. But also explains why it's short because i'm very tired and want the next update to be well thought out when i've actually gotten some sleep and don't feel as if i need to rush LOL
