Hayes~

We were watching Netflix and Eliza fell asleep so I decided to go to sleep too, but for some reason I just couldn’t.

Finally I dozed off, but I woke up when I heard a loud bang coming from the kitchen thingy.  It was around 4 am and apparently Eliza hadn’t heard it because she was still asleep beside me so I stood up and grabbed my baseball bat like they do in the movies and TV shows.  I stepped into the kitchen and turned on the light.

As soon as I did I was in a headlock and there was a knife on my throat.

I gulped and the person says, “See Hayes, you should have just given me what I wanted then none of this would have happened.”  The person turned me around and I saw Shawn…WTF?!?!

“What the hell is going on Shawn?”  He glared at me, “If you would have just given up on Eliza and I got her this would have never happened!”  He whisper shouted.

“What are you gonna do?  Kill me?”  He laughed harshly, “I could, but what’s the fun in that?”  He was getting at something, I just didn’t know what.  “What are you getting at?”  He smiled evilly, “I want you to tell her you don’t love her, that you never did, and that you’re leaving her.  Then you’re coming with me so I can keep you away from her as I seduce her.”  I shook my head, “not gonna happen.”  He looked at me evilly, “would you rather you both dead?” 

My eyes went wide and I was trying to convince myself this was all a dream.  “So unless you want to end up dead with her in a ditch then you will break her heart, and then leave her, forever.” 

I knew Shawn wouldn’t back down; he was crazy enough to really kill both of us if I don’t do this.  I have to do this, for her own good.

“Fine,” I sighed and he smiled evilly.  “Good, I’ll be waiting outside in the morning, and make it quick.”

With that he walked out.  Oh dear god what do I do?

I love her with all of my heart, how can I do this to her?!

I can’t…

But I have to.

I really hate Shawn.

Eliza~

When I woke up Hayes was sitting on my bed scribbling in what I think was a bible?  Ok then…

When he noticed I had woken up he set the Bible down and looked at me intensely.

“Eliza, I’m leaving you.  I don’t love you, I never did.”  No, no, no!  Wait, he isn’t looking me in the eyes at all.

“Hayes, I know something’s up, I can see it in your eyes, what’s going on?”  He shook his head and said, “You need Jesus”, he walked out and slammed the door.

What’s going on?

I need Jesus?

Wait he was writing in that bible right before I woke up…

I picked it up and opened it and saw Hayes’s messy handwriting:

Eliza,

Shawn came last night and threatened to kill you if I didn’t leave you.  Expect to be seeing him soon…

Anyway, I love you and I always have.  Don’t fall for Shawn’s tricks, and I promise I’ll see you soon.

Love you always,

Hayeseyboo<3

Shawn…

I gotta call Nash.
