{BELLA'S POV}

"Ugg" I wined, flopping down next to Kaci.

"What's wrong, this time?"

"I have a huge social studies test tomorrow, and I'm so terrible at social studies and studying!"

"Well, I could come over later and help you?"

I perked up and grabbed her arm, not caring about the tingling sensation.

"That would be wonderful!"

"Ok, ok, it's a date."

I felt my face get hotter but I didn't care, I really need help.

*Time skip*

I was in my room, about to pull my hair out, because I didn't get this study guide and homework at all.

"Bella, Kaci's here."

"Ok, tell here to come on up."

A few moments later Kaci came into my room and sat down on my bed.

"So, you were about to pull your hair out, huh?"

"How'd you know? Are you also a time traveler?"

"No, but your hand is still in your hair."

I then loosened my grip on my hair and put my hand on the desk.

"What do you need help with?"

"All, of it" I confess, putting my head down.

Kaci comes over and sits next to me.

"Ok, what is the easiest way for you to learn stuff?"

"What?"

"Do you learn better reading, listening, talking, or writing?"

"Oh, I would say talking about stuff makes me learn better."

"Ok, then let's talk about this, When there was lots of fighting going on in Kansas, what was it called?"

"Um, c-compromise-"

"Nope, what is there when you fight?"

"Um, bruises and pain?"

"Yes, but wrong. When I was in the fight the other day what got all over me?"

"B-blood." I answered, all the memories flooding back into my head.

"Good, now what do you call it when someone is currently covered in their blood?"

"Bleeding."

"Yes, now what is the answer?"

"Bleeding-Kansas?"

"Yes"

We studied like that for the next 3 hours, and it really helped.

"Thank for being so patient with me."

"No problem, I don't want to see you fail."

I couldn't help a small smile forming on my face, and neither could Kaci. We went downstairs, starving.

"Sorry, girls, I didn't make dinner tonight."

"It's ok, want to go out and eat?" I asked Kaci

"Uh, sure"

We left the house and walked down the street, mostly in silence.

"Where would you like to eat?"

"How about Chick-fil-a?"

"Sure, I haven't eaten there in a while."

*Time skip*

We finished eating and were now on our way back home.

"I feel like I'm in a horror movie."

"Me too"

The road to my house was always empty and dark at night, that's probably why Kaci was able to jump from my balcony.

{KACI'S POV}

I was kind of weary walking down the street, and y suspicions were proven correct. I heard something whistling in the wind, I quickly jumped in front of Bella and put my arm up.

"Son of a!" I yelled, looking a the throwing knife all the way in my wrist.

"Man I wanted to hit your little friend, but you'll do."

I then saw a knife coming straight for my face, I threw my hand up, luckily the knife fell out. I looked up from the knife and saw the same kid from the other day almost right in front of me. I clutched my fist, wincing from the pain and went to hit the kid in the face.

He dodged and grab the knife in my arm, he then pulled it upwards, cutting my arm open all the way to my elbow.

"OW!" I yelled in my head.

He pulled out another knife and went to cut my throat, I stepped backwards, holding my arm, when the guy smirked and looked at Bella.  

"Now, your turn."

He threw the knife at Bella, I instinctively ran in the way and felt it go into my stomach. I leaned over, clutching the knife, when the boy pulled my head up. He ran the knife over my neck and I could see my vision going black.

"No, no not now. BELLA!" I yelled in my head

{BELLA'S POV}

The boy dropped Kaci and pulled his knives out of her stomach and arm. He then looked at me and smirked.

"Remember she's not immortal, you can't hurt her."

I then saw the older man from the other day come up behind the boy.

"But she's not human"

"Doesn't mean we can kill her."

"What do they mean I'm 'not human'?" I asked myself as they walked away

I went and sat beside kaci, waiting for her to revive. I'm not used to this whole 'immortal' thing yet. I looked at her and brushed a piece of hair out of her face.

"I'm sorry" I whispered

*Time skip*

After a few minutes I heard Kaci gasp for breath then start coughing. I moved closer to her so I could pat her back.

"It's ok, you're ok."

"I know I'm ok, are you ok?"

"Yep, they didn't hurt me."

"Good, is it ok if I stay with you tonight? I don't want to disturb Chris."

"Ya, it's fine. Let's go, but you should still call her so she knows you're ok."

"I will"

{KACI'S POV}

"Hey, Kaci, where are you?"

"I got attacked by the tormentors so, I decided to stay at Bella's tonight."

"Ok, and I guess they slit your throat?"

"Yep, my voice should be back to normal by tomorrow."

"Ok, well good night."

"Good night."

I went back into Bella's apartment and up to her room. 

"Ok, I told Chris."

"Good, now I'm going to bed, I'm pooped."

"Me too."

"Good night"

"Good night"

Bella curled up on her bed and I slept on the floor, which is now my bed at her house.
