The next day, Jace was glaring daggers at Logan and me and we couldn't figure out why.

"What did you do to piss off Jace?," Harley finally asked us with a nervous chuckle during lunch. We had all been noticing it, and I knew she was dying to know what his deal was. We all were.

"Well, there was another energy surge in our wing last night. The last one happened when Kit had that energy overload when someone was having sex," Ty said and took a big bite of his burger. It was silent for awhile.

"Well, nobody had sex. I know that because Remmy was visiting with his mom last night," Zavier chimed in and I glanced at Logan who was hiding a blush on his cheeks.

"Oh my gods! You two had sex, didn't you?!," Harley exclaimed louder than I'd like.

"Shut up, Harley! No! We didn't have sex!," I quickly answered and she grinned.

"The blush on both of your cheeks say differently," she smirked and pinched my pink cheek.

"I swear, we didn't! Logan, tell her!"

"Kit isn't lying. We didn't have sex," he said and took a bite of his lunch.

"Then why was there an energy surge again? They never happened until you came here, Kit. They seem to only happen when something sexual is involved," Ty pointed out and I rubbed my temples. I looked over at Jace's table and he was still glaring. He was gripping onto the table tightly now, as if he was trying to keep himself from jumping up and attacking someone.

"I don't think right now is the best time to talk about this," I said to our table and I heard a growl sound behind us.

I froze in my spot, as did Logan. He was mid-chew and he had turned pale and I saw his hand shake a little.

I slowly turned around, and saw Jace standing behind us, Ares and Gwen behind him.

Damn, he really moves fast.

"No, lets. Lets talk about this now," Jace said angrily and I sighed, anger building inside of me.

What gave him the right to even act like this? It's not like I belonged to him. It's not like we're dating and I cheated.

"Why do you even care so much? I remember you telling me the first time we met to stay out of your business. I think that should go both ways," I glared at him and he growled.

"I specifically told you that if you needed me, to come find me; not feed from your friend just to feel satiated," I paused and thought about what he said.

He knew? He knew I wouldn't feel satiated after feeding from Cam. He knew I fed from Logan. He fucking knew.

"Wait... How did you know I wouldn't feel satiated?," I squinted my eyes at him.

"How did you know we fed from each other?," Logan straightened up in his seat.

"Don't worry about it," Jace brushed off and I snapped.

"No! Don't try blowing it off like you do every time you don't want to tell me anything! It's bullshit, and I'm done with it! Either tell me, or fuck off." The dining hall was silent, except for a few whispers here and there.

For the longest time, neither of us spoke. We both glared at each other, never backing down. Finally, after what felt like an eternity, he sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose.

"Fuck," he muttered to himself, "I'll come by your room later, and we can talk then."

"And you won't blow it off again? You will tell me everything?," he sighed and nodded.

"See you later," he grumbled and the trio walked away.

We went back to eating our lunches and ate in silence. The rest of the hall sounded with chatter again, and I was relieved to not have everyone watching us anymore.

What was he going to say? What was it that he wasn't telling me? What if it's something horr-

"Well that was eventful," Harley interrupted my thoughts and I chuckled.

"Dude, how do you do it?," Ty asked with a smile.

"Do what?," I cocked my head in confusion.

"How do you stick up to him like that and not piss your pants? Jace is scary as fuck, and you seem to be the only person not afraid of him. Well, you and Logan," he explained and I hummed.

I shrugged and Harley grinned.

"Maybe Kit likes him," she teased and I rolled my eyes.

"Harley, don't be ridiculous," I heard what sounded like a breath of relief come from beside me, and I glanced at Logan who was smiling down at his lap a little.

"What's got you so smiley?," I nudged him and he shrugged.

I'd pester him about it later.

The rest of the day seemed to drag by. All I could think about was the talk I was having with Jace later. Jace was a no-show for PE and I assumed it was because of the talk we would be having later. That, or he was avoiding me.

So, when the time came for our talk, I waited impatiently in my room with Logan, who insisted on being here. Harley begged me to let her be there as well, but I turned her down, telling her I would text her about it later.

"So, do you have amy idea of what he will say?," I asked Logan and he shook his head.

"Nope. Not a clue," he answered and I huffed.

We began working on our homework as we waited, and Jace didn't end up coming to our room until after dinner.

We let him inside after he knocked on our door, and both sat down on our beds. Jace grabbed my desk chair, and sighed deeply.

"Logan, do you think you could give us some privacy?," Jace calmly asked and Logan shook his head defiantly.

"Nope. No way. I'm staying right here with you two." Jace looked at me, hoping I would tell Logan to leave.

"He's staying. Now talk," I said firmly and he sighed.

"Fine. Lets get this over with, then."
