Caty Jones' POV

It's been a month since Caleb had left town. Those words at the hospital was the last time he ever spoke with me. He sent me two grand because he felt bad for leaving without explaining himself.
Evelyn left Australia two days after Caleb left town. She didn't want to risk getting hurt but, she told me that she could tell Caleb truly loved me. Also, that if it was meant to be, he'd come back. She said she'd talk to Aiden soon because we haven't heard from him in two years. But, he disappeared after his girlfriend died in a car accident in 2016.

Let's just say last month was very lonely, apparently rumors spread about Professor Finn. We also did online schooling for that month too. It was insanely boring. Everything went back to normal though. Cassandra apparently talked to Daniella and they were taken advantage of by the same person. The police found some DNA in Daniella hoping to trace the person who did it.

I also finished my portrait of Caleb putting it on my wall. It was probably the best piece I had ever made. I went into my bedroom to change. I got into some comfy clothes to see my phone ringing.

The name read Cassandra and I answered it, "Hey-"

"They found out who did it... Who attacked us."

"And who was it?" I asked.

"You're not gonna believe it," She said.

"Who?" I asked wanting to know.

"Aiden Jones... Your brother," my eyes widen as I grab my keys leaving immediately.

-

"Apparently he was at the house party spying on Daniella, Us, and Caleb. Apparently Courtney and Aiden planned it together... I'm sorry," I couldn't even believe it. My brother...

"This is crazy... But, I wouldn't be surprised if he went psychotic after his last girlfriend past. Do you think there's a reason why he's targeting Caleb?" She shook her head. Hmm...

"For the first time in a month. I have a class to attend," I tell Cass leaving the bench we were sitting at. She waves as I head to Psychology I. (That's a one by the way.)

"You're late, Ms. Jones," Mr. Finn said calling me out, the entire class turning to me. Great...

"I apologize, Caleb-" I realized I didn't call him Professor...

"That's Mr. Finn to you!" He yelled, "Ms. Jones, speak with me after class!" That was the first time he's ever yelled at me. Was it a show? Was he really that furious? Was it something I did? Did he do something and took it out on me?

-

While he would write something on the board I would slowly pack my stuff so I didn't have to speak with him after class. As soon as it was time to go I left class immediately. Without him noticing as I headed straight to my car going home. The fact he yelled at me ... Whatever.

Caleb Finn's POV

I noticed what time it was seeing they were leaving. When I turned I saw Caty nowhere. Damnit, I didn't mean to yell at her. I just didn't want anything to grow suspicious between she and I. So, her slip up kind of made it obvious. I sighed running my hand through my hair knowing this became more than a Friends with Benefits type thing.

I sit on my leather seat typing my agenda on my computer. Then after I did that I put some notes up so they could get them at home. Afterwards I put grades in so everyone was sitting between A's and C's. I was very impressed with Caty's mid-term exam. She scored a 98%. Which boosted her grade back to a really high B plus. You probably think I'm lying but, I'm not. She's really on the verge of getting her Psychology degree. I was truly proud of her and how much she's become in the past three months.
