"I thought that my brother would come to get me?" I asked Ben

"I thought that my brother would come to get me?" I asked Ben. He looked behind me at Dr. Ryan and back to me. " Didn't Dr. Ryan tell you?" I frown my eyebrows and chook my head. " Your brother called me and said I could bring you home because your parents are at work and they wouldn't see me." I smiled and hugged him.

"Thank you," I whisper while he hugged me back. When we pulled back, he kissed me one last time before taking my bag from the ground and my hand. " Just saying, but you look good in that dress." He smirked, and I blush a little while he kisses my cheek.

I said goodbye to Dr. Ryan, Thanking her for everything before getting into the car. I looked one last time at the building before Ben starts the vehicle driving away. The whole ride to my house, he held my hand while I look outside.

I looked at Ben and saw that he had a bruise on his arms. On his eye was a dark mark like he had a black eye or something. " What happened to you?" Stroking my hand over his bruise. He looked at me for a second and back to the road. " We moved to a new house, and it's by a cliff, so I wanted to jump off and hit few rocks." I giggled a little when he said it, and he chuckles.

"I'm sorry it's just.... funny, but are you okay?" I asked with a little smile. " I'm now." I smiled and looked back out the window. The last time I saw these streets was when I try to kill myself. I can still remember the thoughts that were running through my head that night. " Are you okay?". I looked away from the window and looked at Ben.

He was looking at me with a concerned look. " I don't know. I'm happy that I can go home, but..."

"But you're scared." I bite my lip, nodding my head."I don't know what my parents will do when I get home." He looked at me and back at the road, just listening to what I say. " And. Erick. I don't know what he's gone do." 

He sights pulling the car on my driveway and turns the vehicle off. There was something on his mind, and it was like he's debating if he's gone to tell me or not. " Look, Lena, whatever happens, I will always be there for you no matter what happens." He pulled me closer to him, and I close my eyes.

I could feel him lean in, and he kissed me. It was a soft and sweet kiss that didn't last long, but I still enjoy it. He rests his forehead against mine with closed eyes. " I don't know where they're gone take me. They said I could live with them anymore after what I did." I said, still with my eyes closed. " I don't care. I'll find you. I'll always find you, I promise." After that, he kisses me again, but this time he kissed me more with passion.

Like it's the last time were ever gone kiss each other. He pull me closer until there was no more space between us. I cup his face while his hands find their way down my waist. The kiss got more heated, but I know it had to end. My parents could get home any minute now.

We pulled away out of breath and sat there in each other arms enjoying our last moment together. " I-I have to go," I whisper opening my eyes.

He opens his eyes and looked at me. " When will I see you again?" I didn't want to go, because I wouldn't see him in a very long time. The few months we spend apart was hard enough and now knowing I won't see him again in a very long time kills me. " I don't know when. My parents aren't gone. Let me go that easy out of the house." He looked down like he was thinking, and I looked away.

" What if I need you because I do." I turn back at him and saw the sadness in his eyes.

" I don't know," I whisper.

" Here, I'm sure their gone give you your phone back, so take my number and call me or text me when you need me, okay. If I just hear your voice once in a while, I know I'm gone be okay." I nodded and kissed him one last time before pulling away.

I got out of the car with my bag in my hand when I hear Ben calling my name. " Lena!" I turned around and looked through the car window that he rolled down. " Yeah?" I asked.

" I love you." a smile came on my face when he said those three words.

"Love you too." He smiled and drove away.

I turned around and looked at my house. It was still the same since I left, noting the change. The door open and my brother run to me, pulling me in a hug. " Lena! The home I missed you so much." We pulled away, and I smile at him.

" I missed you too, and thank you for letting Ben driving me home." He smiled and took my bag from my hand. " Your welcome. Just tell mom and dad that I drove you home. okay?" I nodded, smiling.

I was sitting in my room unpacking and cleaning up when I hear the front door open. I swallow hard and listing at my door at what they saying to my brother. " Is Lena home?" My mom asked him.

" Yeah, she's upstairs cleaning her room and unpacking." My brother says.

" Good, I need to talk to her." I hear my mom coming upstairs, and I quickly walk to my bag, pretending that I was unpacking. There was a knock on my door. " Yeah." I didn't turn around when my mom inter the room.

"Lena." I stopped and looked at her.

" Hey, mom." She looked at me and closed the door behind her. I looked at her when she walked to my bed and sat down. " I wane talk to you about something." She pats the spot next to her, and I sit down.

" I don't know why you did it, and I don't want to know."  She stopped for a second and looked around before she continued." I talked to  Erick's mom, and she said that you could come back to the club." O, that's gone be so much fun... not. " It's like nothing happen, okay?" I nodded while she stood up.

Before she could walk out of the room I called her back. " Mom!" She turned around and looked at me. " Yeah hun."  She said in a sweet voice.

" Can I have my phone back. Dr. Ryan said she has to call me once a month to check on me." I lied, She don't have to check on me, but it was the only way I know could get my phone back.  She looked at me with splinted eyes and nodded.

" He's laying in your nightstand." I nodded and thanked her before she walked out of my room, closing the door behind her. She was nice to me like nothing happened, and I don't know If I could trust her or not. 

She also didn't care about my problems because she's pushing it away. I stood up and grabbed my phone out of my nightstand with the piece of paper Ben gave me with his number on it. There was text on it that I just got a few moments ago.

' See you soon at the club, princess.'

It was from Erick, and he knows I'm back home.
