A/N: For those of you who remember at the beginning of the story where I wrote Neal in as Emma's boyfriend, that was an error on my part and it has been fixed to Graham. The reason I am bringing that up will make sense in this chapter. 
Also with this being AU Neal and Milah have no relation what so ever. Shes not his mother in this universe.

Blaire

"Are you even listening to me Blaire?" David asked. I shook my head clearing the Killian Jones shaped fog in my brain briefly.
"I'm sorry, what?" I asked.
"Where have you been for the last three hours? We've tried calling you, texting and no response." David said and crossed his arms. There must not have been cell service at the look out.
Think Blaire.
"Uh..Will. I was with Will." I said.
"Where with Will? Because I went by O'Malleys and you weren't there." David sighed.
"You went looking for me?"
"Of course I did, I was worried. Emma showed us the video."
"Video?" I asked. "What video?" I was completely confused now.
"You don't know?" Emma asked. "Its all over facebook.."
"No, I don't know, hence What video? So tell me, what video?" I asked.
Emma sighed and pulled up her facebook and handed me her phone. I looked down at the screen in horror at the video of me on the floor in the hallway in the middle of a panic attack that Killian was helping me through. I didn't even realize how loud I was actually crying until seeing it just now. The caption was, New girl loses it in hallway. And the comment section was filled with people sharing laughing emojis or asking what the hell my problem was.
"Who posted that?" I asked.
"I don't know who originally posted it. Its been reposted so many times..." Emma frowned.
I shoved her phone at her and stormed up the stairs.
"Blaire, hang on!" I heard David call after me but I went into my room and shut the door and locked it.

I pulled out the paper Killian gave me with his phone number and plugged it into my phone before sending him a quick message.

Home. Have you seen the video too?

I paced the floor, anxiously chewing at my nails waiting for him to respond. David knocked on my door.
"Blaire, please don't shut me out." He said.
"I just need space. Please." I said. "I'll be out in a minute..I promise."
Come on Killian.. Answer me.
I waited for another few minutes with no response and scoffed before I went to my window and opened it and climbed out and sat in my spot. From what I could see from here his house was dark. I sighed heavily and then jumped at the sudden ladder hitting the edge of the roof.

"You look like a gargoyle perched up here." Emma said as she climbed up the ladder. I raised an eyebrow at her.
"Dad sent me..I told him to just give you space, but...he doesn't quite understand that concept...so scoot."
I scooted over a bit to make room for Emma.
"I just want you to know..I had nothing to do with that video being posted." Emma said. "I know some of the people I hang out with can be assholes but I'm trying to shut them down and Dads on the phone with Gina's mom trying to get it sorted out."
"Great." I sighed. "I know how it works, schools push the anti bullying thing to death but they don't ever do jack shit about it."
"You don't know Mrs. Mills. If anyone can shut that shit down it's her. Trust me. She's not someone you want to piss off."
"We'll see." I shrugged.
