Shane followed me as I ran up the stairs to my room. I slammed the door shut just before he could get in the way. I slid down the wall with my head in my hands.
"CLAIRE!" Shane shouted through the door. "Claire, open the door, we need to talk about this. I didn't mean to make you mad or upset. I'm sorry."
"Do you take it back?" I asked hopefully.
"No because it's the truth." Shane deadpanned.
I got up and grabbed a duffel bag from under my bed. I quickly packed up my clothes and threw them into the bag. I opened the door and Shane smiled at me quickly before noticing the bag in my right hand. He frowned deeply and shook his head.
"No, no, no, no, no. Let go of the bag right now." Shane made a grab for the bag and I pulled my hand away.
"Shane stop! That's it okay, I'm done right now." I said and made my way down the stairs.
"What do you mean you're done right now?" He grabbed my wrist and spun me around quickly. "You're breaking up with me?"
"No!... No I'm not; I'm just saying we need time. We both need to get our priorities straight, figure out what we want." I swallowed the lump in my throat.
"I know what I want; I want you." Shane's eyes searched mine.
"I think we need time Shane, I'm sorry," I whispered as I pulled my arm from Shanes grip. I opened the front door and left the house.
(One Week Later!)
"Claire, Shane is on the phone again!" My mum shouted up the stairs to me.
"Tell him I'm busy!" I shouted back like I had done the other 100 times he had rang already. That was the end of that conversation. When I came downstairs my mum gave me the I-really-don't-understand-anything-anymore look. I just ignored it and went straight to school.
Jason cornered me when I came out of school.
"I told you what I want, now where is it?" He spat at me.
"I did what you told me too, I left the house and I left Shane, what else is there that you could possibly want?" I asked him. I didn't want to think about Shane, it hurt too much to think I had upset him.
"I want my sister, okay. I need her to talk to me." He said. I instantly shook my head. Jason grabbed my hair and yanked me backwards.
"Listen darling, it's either you get me my sister or I take you instead, or maybe your boyfriend. And trust me; it won't be all song and games." He growled.
"Take me okay. You can take me right now just leave Eve and Shane alone." I whispered. Carefully I pulled my head back upwards and Jason let go.
"Okay then, sweetie, let's get going." Jason grabbed my arm roughly and pulled me forwards. He was going so quick I tripped over my own feet and landed flat on my face. Jason pulled me up and continued walking. I spat blood on the floor and desperately wiped my face with the back of my hand. It stung. Jason stopped abruptly. I was then being pushed into a car.
"CLAIRE!" I heard someone call my name and I looked around Jason.
Shane.
He ran towards us and just as he got close the door slammed on my face.
"What are you doing? That's my girlfriend, open the bloody door!" I heard Shane shout.
"She's mine now, darling, she doesn't want you anymore." Jason said back.
He got in the car and started the engine before shutting the door on Shane's face. Jason rolled down the window and smirked evilly at Shane.
"Ohh, the irony. You spent so long trying to protect her, you're pretty little girlfriend, and now she's with big bad Jason. And you know why? … To protect you." Jason cackled a laugh and drove away. I looked out the back window, and Shane stood watching the car drive away. A single tear fell from his eye.
My heart broke.
