"Jason stay the fuck away from me!" I whisper yelled at him pushing him to his side.

"What? we will end up cuddling anyways." He shrugged from beside me.

We were now in bed trying to sleep and like always, as we used to do I always sleep with him in his room but now he wants to hug me and be so close to me.

I mean I don't mind but.. I don't really know. I still feel.. maybe afraid? Afraid of what will happen next? I mean nothing good last for me. Everything comes to an end and I am tired of the heartbreak and sadness.

However, I still want to give it a try. To give him a chance.

Ugh, i am so fucked up.

"Come on baby girl you already know you will wake up in my arms while you wrapping your arms and legs around me." He said lowly almost pleading, pulling me by the waist closer to him resulting for our noses to touch." Just let me hold you for the night." He muttered pecking my forehead while resting his arm on my waist.

I guess he is right.

After all, I never stay on my side and will end up wrapping my arms around his body.

"Fine!" I groaned feeling defeated as he chuckled.

I buried my head in his neck while wrapping an arm around his torso and he rested his chin on my head wrapping me with both his arms shielding me from the cold.

He kissed my hair then mumbled. "Good night my smarty panties."

And with that last sentence I heard accompanied with the last thought that lingered my head was him, I drifted into a deep and relaxed sleep free from any anxious thoughts.

Since so long I never slept that well. Feeling safe and warm.

Feeling light and my heart not heavy with hatred.

Feeling as I am a newborn baby that is carefree not knowing what's happening around him.

It was the best sleep I had since forever.

After school today we all decided to hang out at The boy's mansion.

Surprisingly I felt more relaxed with them now and they all apologized to me saying that they did it for my sake and protecting Jason's girl and they never held grudges against me.

If I am being honest I already got used having them around. Yes, I was acting like a dick to them giving them all the cold shoulder but they were a big part of my life since I came back.

Oh, and I already told Aunt Ly about why I left, to where and was doing what those last years but of course I didn't tell her that it was Jason's fault that all happened to me at school because knowing her, she wouldn't talk to him for two months.

Believe me when I say it. She did it before.

Of course, she was surprised by me working in a gang but then again she felt grateful to Boss for taking good care of me and she trusted him as he is Lindsey's lover after all.

Anyways everything was good and clear to her now. she said that I could just have come to her to run from my monster dad and his witch of a wife but knowing that asshole, I knew he wouldn't let me that easily to them due to his public image that apparently he cared about more than he cared about his daughter.

What a dickhead!

"So crispy 'Titanic' or 'truth or dare' movie ?" Rick asked me while I was sitting beside Jason on the sofa with his arm around my shoulders eating popcorn with me.

" she hates romantic movies so obviously truth or dare," Jason answered for me as I was busy concentrating on my popcorn.

"What now crispy? But Titanic isn't just any romantic movie. It is the best."

"Yeah for you." I scoffed.

"You are unbelievable crispy and have a bad taste in movies."

"You are the one who has a bad taste in movies like Titanic is so damn boring why the hell do you like something so absurd like that?" I said stuffing some popcorn in my mouth again.

"I actually agree with her on that!" Blake nodded in agreement.

"Yeah cause you, too, like to watch blood and dead people like her." Ella rolled her eyes.

"So, are we watching a movie or what?" Jane huffed.

"Ya--" Rick was going to say something but Ben cut him off running towards us with a panicked face.

"Guys! XD wants to fight Mia next Saturday!" Ben said panic and worry laced in his voice while everybody went silent and the silence was so tense.

I felt Jason's body tense from beside me his grip tightening around me while Jass gasped, Ella cursed and everyone has angry faces on them.

I decided to cut that heavy tension stating the obvious answer.

"Then I will be ready for him with you all watching us," I stated firmly already making up my mind waiting for him to appear and demand that fight.

XD you soon will be dead meat for threatening me.

"Hey, Sally." I greeted with a smile plastered on my face.

"Hi Mia honey, come in." Sally greeted back pulling me in the house closing the door behind me.

"I just came to finish our project," I started making my way after her to the kitchen.

"Oh, honey it's okay. it's like your own house, now." She said pulling out two glasses with a jar of orange juice." Blake is out buying something and Ella is sleeping so it will be me and you till he comes back." She explained handing me a glass of juice.

"Uhm, its totally fine. I don't mind." I shrugged.

"Oh, you are so cute and well-mannered honey. God bless you to your mother. I am sure she is proud of the beautiful woman you have grown up to be"

"Thanks, Sally. " I answered with a small smile on my face. I really wish she was with me now.

"So, what does she work or she is a housewife?" Sally asked taking a sip from her juice.

I cleared my throat." Uhm she is actually dead." I answered and her eyes widened filled with sadness and regret.

"Oh my god, i am so sorry Mia. I..i didn't know. Blake only told me about your mean father. I..i am so sorry."

"It's totally ok. I got used to the idea of her not with me so it doesn't affect me much like before anymore." I replied with a small smile. "Its better than you asking about my father actually." I tried to divert the subject so she won't feel sorry anymore.

"Yeah about him, I really don't know how you tolerated him and his wife. They are so mean to a kind child like you." She said with anger."He reminds me of the man who got me pregnant."

"I guess all rich men are just greedy snobs." I shrugged with a side smile.

She laughed." They indeed are."

"Maa! I am back and bought you your weird stuff." Blake's voice echoed in the house after hearing a door bang.

"Bring the stuff to the kitchen sweetie." Sally yelled for Blake.

A moment later Blake entered with loads of shopping bags placing them on the floor.

"Oh, Mia. You came." He said surprised." I hope ma didn't sound like a chatterbox." He commented narrowing his eyes at his mom while she shrugged innocently.

I laughed." No, I really enjoyed talking to her."

"Oh aren't you a sweet girl, unlike my dumb son." She cooed at me glaring at Blake afterward as he rolled his eyes.

"Let's just head up and continue our project." He stated and I followed him excusing myself from Sally.

"You brought the notes right?" Blake asked once we entered his room.

"Yup." I nodded making myself comfortable on his bed.

Then we began working on our project. We had to hand it tomorrow and we already were at the end of it.

Later on, after some time, I received a text.

After a long drive to the jerk's house. I finally arrived and knocked on the door greeted by the maid.

While I was making my way to my mom's room an unpleasant statue stopped me in my tracks.

"What are you doing here?" That witch whose name is Saby stopped me with her snarky voice.

"Mind your damn own business. And don't forget that it was my house and it still holds some of my belongings." I spat then pushed past her that she stumbled but unfortunately didn't fall on her ugly face. I made my way to my mom's room as I heard her curse under her breath.

While I was passing through closed doors the devil's voice caught my attention.

"You found her? You sure its that bitch?" A livid David was demanding, assumingly through the phone as there were no sounds in the room except him

"I don't care if they came here due to the bitch's work. I need them out of here. I don't fucking need any rumors or struggles in my damn job!"

Ok, that's so frustrating that I don't get who he is talking about. Maybe some work partners.

But that's not my problem now.

So, I continued and here it is my mom's room.

As I opened the door I was surprised by something unexpected and frustrating.

"WHAT THE ACTUAL HELL!?" I yelled from the top of my lungs, my voice roaring through the house.
