    *   *   Mitchy's P. O. V   *   *

It's been almost three weeks since the incident at the party and I have done nothing but stay indoors. What happened five years ago keeps rushing through my mind and I have no switch to stop it from doing so. 
Presently i was at Becca's place and as usual Tate was at the backyard playing with her dog. When I told mum what happened and she almost got a heart attack as expected, she was so devastated and I feared for her life,  but now everything was back to normal...at least that's what I thought.

"You know what Mitchy?" Becca questioned, and I looked at her in response " I am never going to allow you sit down there and watch you get all lonely,  so we are going out grab your purse and I would get Tate." She said and stood up, not even giving me a single glance as she headed for the backyard. Becca came in with Tate by her side,
"Are you ready? " she Inquired and then we were off

" Where did you get that Tate?" I asked as I saw him holding a toy gun in his hands approaching me with a huge grin, he didn't say anything but pointed to the direction where he came from "I said you shouldn't take things from strangers, now you have to return that."
"Let him keep it" a voice interrupted but I didn't even blanch "plus I don't think I am a stranger,  or am I?" That got me looking up at the person, and I came in contact with the one person I have been hiding from for years, the one person I didn't want to ever see till I die,  the one person that started the plight,  the one person I am so afraid of, the one person I hate with so much passion,  there he was, standing so confident in his glory while I probably looked like I was about to pass out.
I briskly grabbed Tate's hand and started heading towards where Becca was waiting patiently for us,  but before I could take three steps he had grabbed my arm,  I was about to scream, scared that he would kidnap me for a second time
"We need to talk." Jason said while pinning me to a wall in the store where no one was.
" I don't have anything to say to you" I spat back with enmity dripping from my voice.
"I know you don't want to, but you just have to listen to me, it's for your good and I am dead serious." nothing in me wanted to believe him, nothing pushed me into believing him, he is a liar and that's what I would forever believe.
"I don't want to listen thank you," I said as polite as I could and began going my way holding Tate as tight as I could without hurting him
"He is against you Mitchy. " I stop dead in my track on hearing that,  was he talking to me?  I though to myself he mentioned your name dummy,  that voice at the back of my head said and I just had to ask
"What do you mean by that? " I asked but was amazed by his reply
"You don't want to listen. " and he was off.
  I stood there all by myself forgetting all about Tate, till he tugged on my gown reminding me he was still there
"Aunt Becca" that was all he needed to say to get me out of my mini trance, Becca was going to kill me.

By evening time I was back at my place with Tate watching TV and me preparing late dinner. My phone beeped twice informing me that I had a new message. I grabbed it immediately, swiping up to unlock it before going through the message.

Blake: hey, am coming over.

I looked at the time and it read 8:30 pm, if he were to start his journey from town now he'd probably get here by 10 and there is no spare room for him to stay in.

Me: don't you think it is already too late for that.

Blake: that's not your problem, is it?

What just happened? Did he just reply me like that. Blake has never done that, are you sure he is the one typing this? I asked no one in particular.
I and Tate had dinner silently and sooner than later he was fast asleep and I wanted to do just that but remembered that Blake was still on his way here.
I took a long look at the time and it read 10:24 pm. Where was he?
I was slightly drifting off when I heard a loud honk outside my door and that made me jump up and head straight to the door, I have a really strong reflex.
"Hey Blake, why are you here so late?" I questioned but he acted like I didn't just ask him a question. What's up with him? I couldn't help but wonder.
"Where's the food?" He questioned and I blinked trice.
" How do you expect to meet food at 10:30pm Blake, what is wrong with you exactly" and he flared up
" So I got you a house just so you can tell me there's no food, then why did I get you the house in the first place? Well in case you didn't know, it was so you could be a wife material and prepare food for me anytime I need it and also other things which we haven't done yet" he said the last part with a smirk and I winced.
How dare he say such nonsense to me, the urge to slapped him but I rejected the thought as fast as it came. He didn't smell of alcohol so what could be the case?
"Why aren't you saying something?"
"What am I supposed to say Blake? Maybe you should take your house back, since the person I was running away from has finally found me right? I want you to take your house back and leave me alone."
He laughed, he laughed like a maniac, uncontrollably till he started tearing.
"That can't happen so easily Mitch, not after all I have gone through to get here, not till I am done with you."  And I received a punch that lead me to darkness.
