Chapter 23
I've buried myself in bed for the rest of the day, nursing my guilt and trying to get over the look of disappointment that Roman threw my way. If someone were to get a look at me, they'd think I'm going through a breakup.
I've been feeling really bad ever since the morning and I haven't had the courage to step out of the room. I cant imagine running into him again, I'll feel much worse. It's better I try feel better now before I see him again.
It's both amazing and annoying how much Roman, can still have an effect on me. After all these years, he can make me cry, laugh or downright annoyed and angry, that I wish to strangle the life out of him. I dont understand how it is possible that I wasn't able to truly kick him out of my life, I mean I had made peace with him never returning back into my life, but now he's back.
Everything was fine when he was gone, I had accustomed myself to my new normal without him in my life

My head is pounding, that's the first thing I feel as I wake up to a brightly lit room, which I realize is the hospital.So I am in the hospital, just great. I do remember being at the club with Danny, but somehow, I cant recall why Roman was also there. The full step by step details are mashed up and thinking too hard, trying to remember makes my head hurt a bit.Though I can recall trying to stop a fight and then everything went black.Looking around the room, my brows shoot up high when I see both Danny and Roman, passed out on those small couches. I'm fairly surprised that the two haven't killed each other yet.Gosh, this is not the weekend I'd been looking forward to. This one surely turned out to be a disaster, lying in the hospital is proof of that.As I shift on the bed trying to get comfortable, I hear movement on the small couch, this surely earning my attention. The person wa

For three days I've missed school. I couldn't really focus on anything and I was pretty much tired most of the time. Tomorrow though, I have every intention to go back to school, because I'd definetly lose my mind, if I stay any longer in bed.Sam had come to check on me earlier on, though he got a 10 minute permission to do so, with a female on standby, that female being Avery.I still wasn't sure about what was happening between them. I mean they gave no indication of things being more then what I witnessed, in all the times we've spent around each other.After that day, the two wouldn't be seen in the same room together, I'd say it's more on Sam, who did a repeat of what he normally does whenever Danny shows up. He leaves.I don't know what's going on with them, but I intend on finding out. But first, I need to check on what was going on with her and her ex Luke. The last time she mentioned him, she

I can't keep my eyes off of him right now as he stands in front of his bike, his back to me. I bite at my fingernail, telling myself that I'll do what I'd set out to do and then I'll leave him alone.We are partners after all and last night, we seemed civil enough to continue being that today. Taking a breath, I go on over to him, approaching him with caution. I hope he woke up on the right side of the bed today.Standing in front of him, I take another breath, saying a silent prayer before softly tapping his shoulder.He spins around to face me, making me to stagger back in surprise of his sudden movement.His brows shoot up in surprise.I'm pretty sure he wasn't expecting to find me standing in front of him."Hey, I was," I stop mid sentence when he takes out his earphones."Hey, you're back."

"What?" I finally ask, turning to face Avery, who's been staring at me for some time now, after Roman left."Nothing." She looks back down to her magazine, trying to avoid eye contact."Really, you actually expect me to leave this be, after you've been staring at me for God knows how long." She sighs, sitting upright now and looking at me. She opens and closes her mouth, she looks to be struggling with what to say."What is it?" I press."It's nothing really, just that -" "What?"" I know that you're just partners, but the way you two are so comfortable around each other, one would think you two have known each other for so long ." Yeah all our lives. I shake my head off that thought."Partners, that's all there is." I mumble, not meeting her eyes." I know that but the way h

Opening my locker to relieve myself of some books, a pink note pops out with a razor attached to it, landing on the floor. Suspecting that it might be another challenge, I pick both up and turn it over, not wasting time in running my eyes over the words.Freedom.That alone tells me far more than needs be. I need to free my partner.The only clue given is that the room is big, fit for all activities and quite a distance to run to.My first thoughts are on the school gym.With that thought alone I throw everything in my locker, shutting it closed before falling into a full sprint towards gym. "Out of the way!" I scream at people who are in my way.I don't even look around to see who's behind me nor who's ahead of me, my only goal being to free Roman of whatever may lock him down.Such strength and speed I don't know where I get i

"Hello." I answer the call I'd just received, whilst I'd excused myself to the bathroom.No answer.That's strange.This is not the first time I've received a blank call, I didn't really take it that seriously. Not that I will right now.Shaking my head, I finish up with my business and then head out, preparing to eat. My steps faulter when I take notice of Sam, who's no longer alone at our table. The back of the person's head has me suspecting who the person might be, but not wanting to assume, I continue on to the table.Sam's eyes quickly find me as I draw near."Roman?" I say in surprise, despite my suspicions."Hey." He turns to face me, sitting opposite Sam."W-what are you doing here?" "He was here alone, there weren't any available tables, so..." He trails off, glancing between Roman and I."So

We had walked in the auditorium, hand in hand during the morning. It had earned us a lot of eyes yet I ignored them all but a certain pair, that bore holes at the back of my head.His gaze had been daring, tempting me to turn back but I resisted. Throughout a night of tossing and turning, many thoughts attacked me in question, one being dominant than the others, how I could let things get this far?I had put myself in Danny's shoes and found myself understanding, where he was coming from. Danny needed reassurance, that the two weeks had no permanent effect on us, like how one night of misunderstanding, landed us in second guessing everything , we called our own in this relationship.He's not only my boyfriend but my place of comfort, that's why I make such a big deal out of this.As the principal had stepped onto the podium about to speak, that's when I made the mistake of glancing over my shoulder a

A week later....A week has passed and I see the change, honestly speaking, it has not given me a good feeling at all. I've been getting an eyeful lately from most of Danny's admirers, Sam and I haven't really talked and I'm getting the feeling that he's upset with me, and to speak the truth, I can't get over my last encounter with Roman.The disappointment in his eyes, the resignation in his voice has honestly haunted me and no matter how much I try, I can't forget it or will get over the guilt I'm experiencing.I feel all types of wrong and the sense of really disappointing him, weighs heavily on my shoulders.This is the reason why I never wanted him to come back, to never come back to my life, because this is what happens, I can't get a grip of my emotions and everything almost, and I mean almost revolves around him. He doesn't understand how big his presence had made an impact in my life, ho
