Chapter 10. Guess Who's Back In Town.

Mason grabs a bag of frozen peas out of the refrigerator, placing it on my eye. "Ow." I hiss.

"Sorry." He sighs. "Jordyn... I-I'm sor-"

I place my finger on his lips. "Mason, please, this isn't your fault. How were you supposed to know a crazy man would break into the house?"

"I wish I could have been there."

"I know, but its okay Mason. Your teaching me to defend myself. Although, I did use my soccer skills."

He chuckles softly. "What did you do?"

"Well, I grabbed the fire poker and was going to hit him with it, but he took it from me, and hit me in the eye. And I fell and kicked him in the groin."

"Hey at least soccer paid off.." He rubs the back of his neck. "I'm going down to the police station tomorrow to find out what that jackass wanted." He grumbles, cursing under his breath.

"I'm going with, right?"

He nods. "Yeah, sure. I'm going to file charges so hard that his ass is going to-"

I chuckle, "Mason."

He grins. "Sorry... I should.. Uh probably go patch the window up."

"Maybe." I giggle. Why is he a million times more attractive when he's all worked up? I walk into the living room and lay down on the couch.

The next day. 2:10p.m.

Mr.Nicolas claps his hands together. "Alright class, I think that about sums everything up. Remember there is a quiz about this on Monday. Do not forget! Study."

I glance at the empty seat next to me, where Kyle would usually be sitting. At least he gets back tomorrow. I sigh and shove my laptop and papers into my backpack. I hop out of my chair and push it in, I walk down the stairs and towards the door with the rest of the students.

"Oh, Ms.Harper. May I have a word?" Mr.Nicolas asks, leaning against his desk.

"Uh, yeah, sure." I say, walking up to him.

"I noticed you have a black eye." He gestures towards my eye. "Is everything okay at home? I just like to make sure my students are doing well."

I nod, "Yes, everything is fine at home."

"Mason, didn't do this?"

"No, he didn't, he would never hurt me. Someone broke into the house last night."

"Oh my god. I'm sorry to hear that. I hope they caught the person that did this."

"They did, Mason and I are heading over to the station in a bit."

"Do you have a second to help me grade a few papers?" He asks, folding his arms over his chest. "Just three papers. I have to get the quiz ready."

"Sure, of course. Mason won't be here for another fifteen minutes anyway."

"Great!" He grabs the papers out of his desk and places them in front of my chair. "Thanks for the help."

"No problem, Mr.Nicolas." I pull my red pen out of my bag and start to grade the papers.
