“Lena.”

“Leave me alone.”

“Just stop for one second—”

“I don’t want to talk to you.” I kept walking, faster, swiping at my face with the back of my hand and hating myself for every tear that fell.

The hallway was empty and echoey and my footsteps were too loud and so were his, right behind me, not giving up the chase.

“Fuck. Would you just…”

“I said leave me alone, Jace.”

The bell rang loudly, meaning that in approximately forty-five seconds every classroom door in the building was going to ope

  • Private Lessons With The Bad Boy Bully   Chapter Two Hundred And Nineteen

    LENA’S POVIt wasn’t long before we were on the road, headed home, when I sent Jace another text. Then another. My thumbs moved fast across the screen, typing and deleting, then typing again. Please answer. Just one word. Let me know you’re alive!!!Nicole leaned over, grinning mischievously while peeping at my screen. “Oooh, who are you texting? Come on, spill!”I immediately turned my phone off and gave her a weak smile. “No one.”Nicole laughed. “I bet it’s your boyfriend, Noah. Is he sending you sweet messages like ‘I miss my captain’ or planning some big romantic thing to celebrate you being head cheerleader? Is that why he wasn’t at school today? You two are so cute it’s disgusting. Tell me everything!”I forced a laugh, thinking, no way in heck was I ever letting that happen. But I didn’t say that out loud. “It’s nothing like that. Really. I was just… checking on something.”But Nicole wasn’t convinced. “Sure, sure. Keep your secrets, Miss Mysterious. But seriously, isn’t it s

    LENA’S POV“What are you doing here, Nicole?” I asked, the bitter memories of our last conversation still fresh in my mind.Jake followed right behind her, looking hale and hearty, happily snacking on a big bag of Doritos as if the last 48 hours had never happened.He grinned wide when he saw me. “What’s up, Captain? Haven’t seen you in a while. You know since the whole embarrassing thing with the almost dying…”I smiled at him, genuinely relieved to see that he was okay. “Hey Jake. I’m really happy you’re doing okay now. I’m so sorry I couldn’t come see you at the hospital. I was—”Jake just laughed it off, waving a cheesy hand at me, “I get it, you had stuff going on too. It’s all good. Besides, I’m fine now, obviously.”He struck a dramatic superhero pose, flexing with Doritos still clutched in one hand. “See? Back to 100%. Ready to tackle the world… or at least the vending machine. Which has stopped working by the way, so obviously I’m going to be a major Karen about it and file a

    LENA'S POVThe closing bell rang, echoing through the halls. Even though I’d spent the entire day with my head on a swivel, scanning every corner for his tall frame and messy hair, Jace didn’t show up.Sometimes I would get hit by random flashes of anger. Thinking, what exactly is he playing at by running away? Why did he do it instead of just staying to deal with what he’d done? I specifically asked him not to hurt Nosh, but he ignored me completely and did it anyway, injuring his own family to the point where he needed to be hospitalized, and now he’d run away from his family and his brother.Is he okay wherever he is? Is he safe? Has he had anything to eat all day? What exactly is he up to?I was on my way back to the Dawson house, rushing back to ask Mrs. Dawson if he was back home yet, when I checked my schedule at the last minute and realized I had a meeting with the cheerleaders after school so we could settle on a routine for Saturday.I sighed, but just like with all of m

    I took my books and began the walk to class, doing my best to smile along with the adoring horde of students who waved and congratulated me.“Congrats on being head cheerleader, Lena! You were amazing at tryouts!”“We missed you yesterday!”I smiled and thanked them, hugging my heavy stack of books closer to my chest, but inside my mind there was a dark cloud hovering over everything.If Jace were here, he would’ve taken these from me, then rolled his eyes and refused to give them back. He probably would’ve been mad at me, scowling about something, but it wouldn’t have mattered because he would’ve walked me to class all the same and made sure I was comfortable.I was worried sick, angry, and in complete emotional turmoil, so much so that I didn’t know where one emotion began an the other one ended. I pulled out my phone again and tried Jace’s number. Straight to voicemail. Again.Where are you? Please… I need to know you’re okay. Why are you doing this? What are you up to?The first

    LENA’S POVNow the tables had turned, and it was my turn to call Jace and worry.I stood at my locker the next day, my phone pressed to my ear for what felt like the hundredth time. It rang and rang, each ring driving me deeper and deeper into suspense “Jace… please pick up. Just let me know you’re okay. Please.”The call went to voicemail, and I stared at the black screen, my thumb hovering over it as if one more call might magically make him answer. My stomach was in knots. Hours had passed since everything exploded, and I still couldn’t stop replaying the blood on Noah’s face, Mrs. Dawson crying hopelessly about her son, or the haunted look in Jace’s eyes just before he’d walked way and driven off.My mom had given me very specific instructions to go to school today and minmy d own business for my own safety, telling me she would kill me if I ever left to go anywhere or try to find anyone.Dawson family business was Dawson family business, according to her, and it wasn’t my place

    LENA'S POVNow it was my turn to call him and worry.I sat in the sterile waiting room of the private hospital, my phone pressed to my ear for what felt like the hundredth time. It rang and rang before going straight to voicemail again. “Jace, please pick up… please.”Hours had passed since everything exploded. Mom and Mrs Dawson had rushed Noah here in a panic, and I’d followed in a complete daze. Now I was alone in this quiet corner, my leg bouncing nonstop, guilt eating me alive from the inside out.I knew something like this would happen. I knew it the second I saw that look in Jace’s eyes when he left. I should’ve stopped him. I should’ve never told him anything. Why did I ever open my mouth? Why did I have to do something so stupid?I felt angry at him for going ahead and starting that stupid fight even after I specifically begged him not to. Angry at myself for being so weak and trusting him with something so heavy, thinking I would somehow manage it even when I knew how t
