Jeff had texted me the address and today was the day. I didn't know what to expect but I was scared. What if Clay was right? What if this was all just a trap?

I was now on my way to the secret location and I made sure no one was following me.

When I arrived, I pulled up to an abandoned building and i bit my lip nervously. I walked inside the building slowly hearing pieces of glass crunch under my heels. "Jeff?" I called out. I waited a few minutes and then called again.

"Hello? Is anyone here?" I asked a bit desperate for an answer. I needed him to be alive or I would die without him.

I heard more glass crunching from around the corner and I took one risky step forward. I was shaking with fear that it would be someone else. I gasped seeing who came around the corner.

"Oh my god." I whispered as tears came to my eyes. I ran towards him. "Jeff! Oh my god!" I jumped on him wrapping my legs around his waist. "Hey, beautiful." He chuckled a bit and held me tightly. I began to cry. "I missed you so much." I sobbed into his shoulder. "Shh, baby girl. Don't cry. I'm here now. I'm here." Jeff said as he stroked my hair.

I got off of him and looked up at him. "My god, you keep getting more gorgeous every time I see you." He said. I saw him starting to tear up too. "Aw, Jeff don't cry." I chuckled a bit and wiped his tears. "I missed you so much, I can't help it." He chuckled and looked at me. "Me too." I whispered and kissed him softly and slowly wanting to keep this moment forever. I pulled away and hit him in his shoulder.

"Ow! What was that for?" He furrowed his eyebrows. "For making me think you were dead! I was broken from the moment you "died" up until the moment you texted me. I needed you, Jeff and you weren't there." I whispered.

Jeff frowned. "Please don't cry. I'm sorry. I had to get away or I would actually be dead." He told me. I nodded understandingly.

I bit my lip. "Hannah's dead." I mumbled. "Oh my god. How did she die?" He asked taking my hands knowing it hurt me since we were once friends.

"Suicide." I whispered and the tears and back. "I did nothing to help her and I knew she was in pain." I said and he pulled me into his shoulder. "Oh my gosh, babe. I'm so sorry. It's not your fault okay? There is nothing you could have done to help her." Jeff said. I knew there was something I could have done but I wasn't going to argue right now.

"It's just-" I was cut off by the sound of shoes on the ground.

Jeff and I turned around to look at the place it was coming from.

Jeff gasped.

"Oh my god." He said covering his mouth.
