"What do you think you're doing?" The voice was anything but accusing. It was soft and questioning.

"What does it look like, Derek?" Julian spat. "I'm leaving, and I'm leaving for good!"

Derek frowned at his friend. "You can't. That stalker is out there, and the walls of Dalton are the only safe place until we find out how this crazy fan girl got in the school."

Julian sighed and blew his bangs out of his eyes. "I don't think you understand… I don't want to live another day with that… that… arrogant pompous prick!" The tears were streaming out of the actors eyes, before he collapsed into Derek. "I told him, Derek, and he just left…"

Derek led Julian to the bed and sat down with him. "He left?"

"He just walked out of the room, and I just… I don't think I can do this anymore…" Julian stood and grabbed the bag he had been packing. "Goodbye, Derek."

The taller Stuart boy grabbed Julian's arm. "You can't go out in weather like this, Julian! Are you crazy?"

The actor just smiled the show-stopping smile. "I guess I am. I'm a little bit crazy." Then he handed Derek two letters. "Don't open them until I'm gone, D. The second one is for Lo…"

Derek nodded and hugged his second best friend. "It's been a good three years , buddy. I'm going to miss you." He then watched as Julian made his way down the corridor.

Derek looked down at the letters in his hands. He knew Julian was staying around for another hour or two so that he could say goodbye to Kurt (They had become extremely close), and Adam (The boys actions were still strange to Derek). The boy stood up, and walked in the direction of Logan's room. It was better for the prefect to find out that Julian had left from him than from someone else.

"Logan," Derek knocked on the door. "Hey, Lo…"

Finally the boy came to the door, but he wasn't the same boy. The blonde haired superman who wouldn't let anyone touch him had a wrinkled uniform, and messed up hair. He looked as if he had been crying, and his nose was running badly. "Hey, Lo." Derek pushed himself into the room and sat down on the neatly made bed. "I uhm…I came to tell you that Jules… he uh... he left. Again. But this time he's leaving for good and—"

"NO!" The scream ricochet off of the walls, and the blonde boy broke down into a sob in the middle of the room. "He can't leave… he can't… the stalker said he couldn't. He said Jules couldn't leave…"

Derek knelt down by the prefect. "What do you mean the stalker said Julian can't leave."

"I know who the stalker is…." Logan raised his head. "I was doing rounds, and I stumbled upon him. His room is covered in pictures, hundreds of pictures. The room reeks of blood and vanilla. Rose petals on the floor. Derek it's like my own personal hell. Pictures of me and Julian with me axed out. He is a terrible person. He told me Julian can't leave or he would kill him, and that… that… he would kill me and him if… if…. I told him I loved him back…"

Derek listened to the boys speech come out between sobs. "That's why you left isn't it? Its not that you don't love him is it? Lo? Who is the stalker? I need to know."

Logan raised his head so he was staring straight into Derek's eyes, and whispered one single word. "Adam…"

Julian walked down the corridor. He had just bid his goodbyes to Kurt, and Adam. He was now leaving. He got to the end of the hallway and opened the door. He looked back down the hallway he had walked a million times. However, this was nothing like those times. He knew he wouldn't be back, and that he was never good enough for the one he loved. He let the pouring rain wet his face before letting the door close behind him, and walking down the wet cobblestones.

Adam lit the candles letting the scent fill the room. "I'm saving you from yourself, Julian." H whispered so quietly. "I'm saving you from them and from yourself. If I can't have you… no one will. He let the blade glide down his wrist and onto the picture. This time Logan was spared and Julian was covered in the thick crimson liquid…

Julian screamed but no one could hear him. "Relax, Julian! I'm trying to help you!"

"How is this helping me?" Julian screamed with pure terror. "Are you trying to kill me, Adam? So you even know what you're doing?"

Adam just grinned and he turned the actor around to face him. The rain cascaded down their faces, and he placed a soft kiss to Julian's forehead. "I'm protecting you from them, and from yourself. I'm protecting you so that they can't hurt you, and so that you don't hurt yourself!"

The actor tried to scream for help again, but not before Adam slit his arm deeply, penetrating an artery. "Bleed, Julian… think about what you've done, and remember I'm saving you from Logan, and the rest, and the hurt, and the pain. I'm giving you the out…"

As Adam walked away Julian lay there bleeding on the wet cobblestones. The rosy liquid rushed around him, and the actor was helpless to stop it. "Help me," he whisper lightly. "Please please help me…"

Logan and Derek were rushing around the campus looking franticly for Julian. They had even gone into Windsor and struck up and unlikely alliance to look for the boy.

"Julian! Jules! Julian where are you!" Logan rushed down the hallways. And out into the rain with Derek on his hells, and the Brightman twins behind him.

"Julian! Julian!" Kurt ran into them from the opposite way with Blaine hugging close to him.

"We're going to find him, Kurt." Blaine whispered into the courtenors ear. "He's not going to leave. I promise you, you will never lose another person clos to you… I promise."

The small group met up, and decided to alert the Headmaster about the actors disappearance, however she didn't seem concerned because he had filed for leaving for an acting job earlier, and had told the boys he had probably left to catch his plane.

Julian felt the life leave his body. "Help me…" His whisper was so quiet he could barely hear himself. He looked down to his arm. The rain had mixed with his blood and washed it down the cobblestones and around his clothing. When he still had strength he had wrapped the wound in his jacket, but it kept bleeding and soaked through the jacket, and onto the ground around him.

The boy whimpered every time he tried to move. He didn't have the energy to care anymore, and he laid his head onto the mulch in the flower bed to his right. "I'm so tired…" he whispered again "Someone please help me…"

Logan fell on his knees in thanks when Dwight showed up, his hair dripping, and holding a medallion and map. "I won't let anyone gat hurt… ever again…." The boy handed them the map with Julian's apparent location, and wen to change his clothes.

"Lo, listen to me…" Derek grabbed his friend's shoulders. "If he's still here it means Adam probably has him, or did something to him. Please don't freak when you see him. He could be in bad condition just when we find him don't get in people's way… please, Lo?"

Logan nodded and traced the map with his fingers. "Com'on, let's go find your prince…"
