(KIT'S POV)

As I made my way into the common room with Aiden by my side, I felt on top of the world. As much as I hated to admit it I never felt that way with Grace, although it still felt all too soon.

She plonked herself down in her usual spot, taking a cigarette, lighting it and blowing out ever so slightly. "So..." she begins whilst taking a puff. "What did happen to Grace?" She hands me the cigarette and I put it between my lips, inhaling.

"You really can't remember?" I ask and she shook her head innocently.

"So we all went into the common room and were about to escape, when Lana approached us. She said that she would get us all out, and god I should have called her bluff, but I was stupid." I started. She waved her hand in a 'go on' motion.

"We all snuck out while Sister Jude was all drunk watching the movie, and we made it to the door that led out of Briarcliff. We were so close and we had our first taste of fresh air, until these- things... monsters jumped out of the bushes. They were so much faster than us and in the spur of the moment, Lana decided unless we distracted them, we'd all be dead meat. So she tripped Grace."

She froze. Her face was a mix of anger and sadness and she spots Lana out the corner of her eye. She stomps up to her, although not looking as intimidating as she would hope to see as she was a mere 5'2.

"What's wrong with you?" She shouts so that everyone in the common room looks over. I quickly put out the cigarette and rush over. "Aid, take it easy."

Her cheeks went red for a split second by the name I called her. "You ruin everything I swear!" she continued to get more agitated.

"Calm down I haven't done anything." She spoke, but her facial expression seemed to contradict her words, displaying a look of pride.

"You never think about anyone but yourself! You ignorant, rude, selfish, killer. You murdered my best friend you psycho!" She breaks down into tears and I hold her.

"Well, I'm pretty sure that your 'best friend' wouldn't be happy watching you up there snuggling up to her man." She says whilst doing a quotation motion with her fingers.

Aiden instantly pulls away "You little bi-" she begins until she's cut off by sister Jude. She takes a hold of Aiden, ripping her out of my arms but she puts up a fight, trying to fling herself out of Jude's grip.

"Let go of me I'm not done here!" she shouts, "oh yes you are," Jude says whilst pulling her back.

"Aiden!" I scream, trying to get her attention whilst she's being dragged out until I'm then grabbed myself by two large men.

"Get me out of this nightmare." She cries and then she's fully out of my sight. I couldn't help but frown at the fact that maybe she thinks meeting me was a mistake.
