Jarens p.o.v-

I finally decided to leave the forest when it started getting later. I was cold, and my feet were hurting. The cold day, turned into a rainy-cold day. I was soaking wet already after spending hours in the rain. I started walking towards my house.

I chose to walk the longest way possible, since the shorter way I had to walk past John's house. I had decided to stay away from him. I knew I had to leave , run way from home to do so. I didn't care, I didn't want to see John anymore.

My other option was to end it.

While I walked, my arms wrapped around myself and shivering in the suddenly cold evening, I started seeing how poisonous I was.

I don't know how long it took me to get home, but when I did. I didn't see any lights on. I walked around to the backyard and found my spare key hidden in the flower pot by the kitchen window. I walked in the backdoor and locked it. I looked around and didn't see my mom, it wasn't that late. She must've been out with friends or something.

I climbed upstairs and entered my bedroom. I hadn't spent much time in here in a while since I've started dating John. There was some of his clothes laying ontop of my bed. I saw his red and yellow hoodie and picked it up, sitting down on my chair next to my desk. Holding it against my chest, taking in his scent.

I stopped crying maybe 2 hours ago, but smelling John's hoodie was overwhelming and I started crying again. I missed him already. I know what I did today was wrong, but I can't deal with it.

I placed his hoodie down and walked towards my bathroom, undressing and stepping under the warm water. I was still cold from being outside so long.

When I was ready, I stepped out from the shower, drying myself. Throwing on some grey sweat pants and a old t shirt. I looked at the mirror that stood on my dresser , i had puffy eyes and looked like I haven't slept. I reached my hand to my hair started pulling out strands of hair. Hoping it would help feel better. But it didn't, I felt miserable.

I just wanted to end it, but instead I walked over to my desk and grabbed John's hoodie and crashed into my bed. Holding it tight, curling up in s ball. I was tired and cold, and I wanted more than anything to see John again, but I was to ashamed to go back to him.

Maybe John didn't even want to see me. Maybe he was happy that I finally left.

John's p.o.v

I knew my heart couldn't take it much longer. It was way past midnight and the panic I felt was only getting worse. I hadn't eaten anything and I was getting exhausted after driving and searching everywhere for Jaren.

I stopped my car at a gas station, I was running out of gas. While I was filling up my car, I peered inside my car and saw my phone lighting up seeing it was Jaren's mom calling. I rushed in my car, "anything?" I quickly answered.

"He's home." Olivia said in a quiet voice. " I found him in his bed. He's sleeping now."

I collapsed against my car in relief. It felt like I could breathe again, and the heavy feeling I had on my heart was lifted off.

"Thank goodness.." I sighed. "Make sure he doesn't go anywhere, I'm on my way," I told Jaren's mom and hung up.

Fifteen minutes later I was parked in front of Jaren's house and got up, I nearly ran to the front door, and knocked on the door. Ms. Olivia came to open the door for me, as I stepped in.
