*Rose's P.O.V*

"Morning sweetheart." I hear Jack call from behind.

What? Oh. Now I remember. That stupid bet we made starts today.

"Morning." I reply brightly, slamming my locker shut.

"Can I walk you to your first lesson?"

"I don't know, can you?"

Jack looked puzzled.

"You're supposed to say 'May I walk you to your first lesson'" I sigh.

"Whatever. May I walk you to your first lesson?" Jack tried again, earning himself a slight nod from me.

Intertwining his hand with mine, we headed to my class.

Other than all the girls in the hall giving me death stares, it wasn't too dramatic I guess.

After History, Jack was waiting outside to walk me to Biology too. Daniel looked pissed when we walked into class together, but I dismissed it as he was having a bad day.

"I have to serve detention today. After that I'll go home." I told Jack, as he whined about wanting to go to the warehouse.

"Fine. But be safe okay?"

"What am I? 8 years old?"

"Just be careful."

"Yes mum."

Jack snorted but walked off. Sighing, I prepared to serve my hour's worth of detention.

I did tell Jack I was going to go home after detention, but I was bored. So I went to the warehouse.

"I TOLD YOU TO STAY AWAY FROM ROSE!" I heard someone shout from inside. It sounded like... Daniel. I stopped short, standing outside the door and listening.

"What's wrong Daniel? Scared of a little competition?" Jack retorted.

I couldn't help it. What was going on? I opened the door slightly and peeked inside, to see Jack sprawled on the floor and blood dripping from a cut lip. The other boys were oblivious to the 'little' fight breaking out and were throwing daggers at a target set up on the opposite wall. As if this was a normal occurence.

My eyes drifted back to where Daniel and Jack were.

"Why? You know I liked her first." Daniel asked, pain in his voice.

Jack smirked. "It looks as if she prefers me though."

Then I heard the sickening crunch as Daniel's fist connected with Jack's nose, causing more blood to appear.

"Daniel I think that's enough." Jonah warned.

I watched in horrified silence as Daniel walked over and snatched the dagger out of Jonah's hand, throwing it with much precision so it hit the bull's eye. "That" -he pointed to the target- "will be your face next if you don't stay away from Rose." He snapped, looking at Jack.

I had enough. Shutting the door silently, I knelt on the ground. What was going on?

Hearing footsteps walking towards the door, I ran and hid on the other side of the warehouse and watched as Zach, Corbyn, Jonah and Daniel left.

Hesitantly, I walked back to the door and slipped inside.

"How much did you hear?" Jack asked, too weak to stand up.

"Enough. Let's call the bet off. I don't wish to see any of you hurt because of me." I replied, sitting down.

"Okay."

"Are you okay?" I asked quietly.

"I've been through worse."

"What?"

"Nothing."

I gritted my teeth. "Do you need to go to the hospital?"

"No hospitals. They will ask too many questions. I'm fine. It's just a broken nose and a few cuts. I won't die."

As he staggered to sit up, I saw a hint of black ink on his shoulder.

"What's that on your shoulder?"

"Nothing... just a tattoo. You should go. Before they come back."

"But you're in terrible shape!"

"I'll manage." He said with a weak smile.

"Alright." I replied, reluctantly leaving.

*End of Rose's P.O.V*

*Jack's P.O.V*

It was terrible having her see me like this. But I've suffered through worse. Gah I need to get her off my mind.

*End of Jack's P.O.V*
