Chloes P.O.V

Jace and I had just bought everyone drinks, and we were walking back to our friends when Jace dropped the glass he was holding. I looked up to him, and there was anger radiating from him. I turned around to see what he was so mad about, when, I saw Nick, pressing himself upon another girl. She was screaming for him to get off of her, and what's worse is that I could recognise that voice from anywhere. It was Ella.

I followed Jace who was basically running over to them. He grabbed Nick by his neck and threw a punch right in his jaw. I didn't want to see Jace beat up my now ex-boyfriend, so I looked at Ella, who was now crying. What had happened? Jace dragged Nick out of the club, which left me standing next to my bestfriend. I had tears that were threatening to fall, but I was never one to cry in public. "Chloe..." Ella began. I cut her off."Just tell me what happened," I snapped. I didn't mean for it to come out like that, but I know she would understand."He came onto me, it wasn't my fault. He kissed me. I'm sorry. Please don't be angry with me," she said as she sobbed. I sighed, I can't stay mad at her. "I'm not angry with you Ella. I'm just upset, that's all. Nick was my first proper boyfriend, you know. I'm going to get some fresh air. You'd better see where Jace got off to." She nodded and I walked out back. It was a cool, crisp night, and the wind bit at my uncovered arms. I sunk to the ground and wept. I let all my hurt and emotions flood out. I leant my back against the wall and dried the tears with my arm. I bet I looked like a right state, crying on the floor, alone. But I didn't feel alone. I felt like someone was watching me.I stood up and looked around, but there was no one there. I was about to give up, when I felt a hand on my shoulder. I turned around, expecting to see Ella, but instead my eyes fell upon someone who I was not familliar with. He had messy ginger hair, and piercing blue eyes. He was well built and was very attractive. What are you doing Chloe? Your boyfriend just cheated on you, and you're standing here, staring at another guy. The thought of Nick kissing Ella, brought tears to my eyes and I held my head in my hands. The guy, never let go of my shoudler, and when I looked up, he was staring at me. "Are you okay, miss...""Chloe. My name's Chloe," I found myself telling him. He could be a kidnapper or anything, but there was something different about him. "Chloe. Are you alright?" he asked genuinley. "I could say that I was absolutley fine, but that would be a lie," I said honestly. He chuckled and I even managed a smile. I don't know why but I feel like I can tell him anything, and that is strange becuase I have only known him for a couple of minutes. "I never asked for your name.""Oh. Jacob, please to meet you." I chuckled and we talked for ages. I told him why I was upset and he said that what Nick did to me was unforgivable. We were sitting on the ground, just talking to each other. I didn't learn much about him, other that he was here alone. I talked a lot about me, though. I found myself, really enjoying Jacob's company. It was much better that Nick's company. We were just done talking about my school, when I looked into his eyes. I leant in, and he did the same. I felt his hand, touch my face and snake down my neck. I closed my eyes, at his sudden actions. He put his face next to my ear, and I could feel his breath warming up my cheek."Please don't hate me Chloe, you will understand more later," he whispered. I was about to open my eyes and ask him what he meant, when I felt an unbearable roaring pain inside my throat, where he had placed his hand. At first I didn't want to open my eyes, in fear of what he would be doing. I thought he had stabbed me, but I didn't feel the metal blade inside my neck. In fact, there was nothing on my neck. I slowly opened my eyes, despite the intense pain that I was in. Jacob was kneeling right next to me, with sympathy in his eyes. What had he done to me. I found myself getting really tired, so I closed my eyes and let myself drift off, into the darkness, not knowing wether I would ever see my family, or best friend ever again. The darkness was never ending, almost as if I was in a black hole. It was so dark, that I couldn't see anything, and yet I could hear things. There were people screaming. Yelling. Shouting out for help, and yet there was nothing I could do to help. Suddenly there was light and the screaming stopped. I opened my eyes and I was back at home, back in my bed. There was no one around, not even Maddie, my little sister. I sat up and touched my neck. It was sore, but I couldn't remember what had happened. I walked over to my mirror and stared at my reflection. Every thing was the same as it always was, except for the black spiral tattoo that was on my neck. When did I get that?I called Ella's phone, but I didn't get an answer as it went straight to voicemail. Where was she? I needed to talk to her about this right away. Maybe she knew what happened last night and why it hurts so much to remember.
