Chapter 22 ~Baby Steps

Sarah's POV

Chances. 

I've had many especially with Evan in the 3 months that I've known him I always act like I hate him. But I don't, I made a promise to myself just like I did with Quincy. I would protect him and Quincy and their children at all costs even if it costs me my life. It's not like I have much to live for anyways. 

I stared blankly at the scenery around me the meadow was always calming but right now I was too tense. These feelings I'm developing for Jared are rather scary I've never really cared for anyone since my mother was killed. I was waiting for him at the meadow it sort've became our thing I'll sit in the meadow and he'll come see me. 

"What are you doing out here by yourself" I heard a voice say. 

I looked over and grimaced when I saw who it was "What do you want Wayne" I sighed. Wayne has been my admirer since we were younger even though he's four years older than me. 

"I can't just leave my beloved unattended" he smiled while sitting next to me. 

"I'm not your beloved Wayne so quit saying that" I said getting agitated.

"Well you don't know once I turn 18 in a few days we'll find out" he smirked.

Jared is taking rather long this time I hope nothing happened to him. I clenched my fists and gave Wayne a bored look "Can you leave I'm trying to relax" I sighed. 

He leaned in closer making me go on edge "I know another way you could relax" he leaned in and placed his lips on mine. 

My mind went blank and flashbacks from 3 years ago came back I struggled against him but he only pulled me closer. I heard a twig snap but I couldn't turn to see if anyone was there after a few seconds he pulled away and let go of me. I instantly shot up and kicked him in the gut "Ever try that again and I mean ever and I will cut off your dick" I snarled before storming off. 

It was getting late anyway and I doubt Jared was coming today 'Maybe he found someone better and decided to give up on you' the little voice in my mind said. 

I stopped walking and contemplated that thought 3 months ago I would've been glad to be left alone but now not so much. My eyes started to sting so I shook my head quickly to dismiss the thought so I won't start crying. I walked into the house -mansion- and walked straight for my room not taking my eyes off the floor. I sat on my bed and thought about all the things I needed to do tomorrow but my agenda was free. 

The door suddenly opened and Quincy walked in "Me and you are going to Evan's house tomorrow" he said. 

I hid my excitement and gave him a bored look "Why" I sighed. 

"Because I want to see him" he shrugged. 

"But why do I have to go" I groaned. 

He sat on my bed and rubbed his stomach "Because I said so" he said back. 

I stared at him "Fine" I grabbed my book and started to read silently telling him this conversation was over. 

"So....how was your daily meeting with Jared" he asked. 

"Fine" I didn't bother to look up from my book. 

"Really" he asked I could tell his eyebrow was raised.
