YAYY THIS is the new chapter! Sorry it took me soo long to post it…. It's purely Kelsey POV cuz It flowed better for me to write…. Anyway, I hope you enjoy….

Kelsey sat in the darkness of wherever Chase had brought her to and was eerily calm. He had used to make sure she couldn't see anything as they were going to their destination so that she couldn't "Be a hero" as he so nicely put it. But Kelsey was actually enjoying the solitude she was thrown into. Since she had come back to Ipswich, her life was moving like a roller coaster and she was just hanging on to the ride. So even though, Kelsey didn't want to be wherever she was and wanted nothing than to tear Chase to shreds, she found it kinda nice to take a step back to breath and reflect on everything.

Kelsey leaned back into whatever was behind her. She thought about Pogue and wondered if he was okay. Before Chase had taken her, she had just hung up from Brooke and heard that he was in a car accident and had no way of knowing how he was doing or if he was even still alive. Kelsey's heart sank when that thought crossed her mind and quickly changed her mind. "He's not dead, Kels." She said to herself, quickly brushing the morbid outcome off. "If he were dead, I'd know. I'd feel it." Kelsey ran her fingers through her hair and closed her eyes. "He'd better not be dead." She whispered, realizing she didn't know what she'd do if Pogue actually did die. She had all these mixed feelings when it came to him at the moment, so the logical thing for her to do was be confused.

She was angry at him for being a coward. She was hurt that he just gave up on them without a fight and couldn't see the potential of what they could be together like she did. She was frustrated that after he just gave up, he still felt like he could dictate the part of her life he chose not to be a part of. Most of all, Kelsey was sad and distraught that he was broken and wanted to do everything in her powers to fix him. Thinking of Pogue made her heart ache, because despite her trying, she wasn't over him yet.

Realizing this made Kelsey think of Reid. Was it fair for her to pursue something with him, even though she wasn't completely over Pogue? On one hand, Kelsey told herself that she and Pogue were never really anything other than friends; there were just strong romantic feelings between the two but they were never acted on. The other hand told Kelsey that she would probably always have these feelings for Pogue, so she would basically be emotionally cheating on Reid. But Reid already told her that he knew these things and accepted them. He has enough faith in himself and what they could potentially have together to believe that whatever that is will be better and greater than her feelings for Pogue. That made Kelsey smile to herself.

Reid always had a way of doing that: lighten her mood and making her smile no matter how she was feeling, even when he wasn't around. And she loved the fact that he radiated confidence. Mix that with the fact that he was reckless and impulsive and Kelsey was even more intrigued. Yeah, he was a smartass and irresponsible at times on top of those things but that was just part of his charm. Thinking about all of Reid's qualities made her wonder why she never thought of him romantically in the first place. "Because you were hung up on Pogue, dumbass." She said to herself with a chuckle.

Reid and Pogue had two completely different personalities; Pogue's temperament was more like her brother's in some aspects, while Reid was unique in his own right. They both had their similarities, as did Pogue, Reid, Tyler and Caleb did; mainly with their loyalty and protectiveness. All four of them would lay everything on the line if it came to saving someone they cared about, a trait Kelsey knew she had as well. She wouldn't be in the situation she was in right now if she didn't. It's just their protectiveness that makes her angry, mainly Pogue's and Caleb's because it boarders controlling and Kelsey hates when people try to control her. Kelsey closed her eyes and sighed. 'I need to be free to do what I want, when I want, with whom I want.' She thought to herself, but laughed when she realized that she didn't always think that way.

Her "I Can't Be Tamed" way of thinking came along when her father got sick. The summer after Kelsey turned 14 was when he got to the point of not being able to take care of himself and he went into solitude. Afterwards, she had a lot of questions that no one in the Covenant seemed to want to answer for her. Then when Caleb and the other parents of the guys started attempting to "parent" her because their father couldn't and her mother didn't seem to want to, she went a little crazy. The rules and curfews they were trying to enforce on her went disobeyed, but she wasn't penalized for it because they all assumed it was Kelsey's way of dealing with the "loss" of her father. But, it was mainly because she didn't want to listen to the people who she felt condemned her father to living the rest of his life alone. She didn't understand how the people who supposedly cared about her father would do that to him and constantly thought that if that happened to her or any of the other four guys that they would do the same to her, so she chose to respect, yet disobey them. This is also why when her and Caleb argue, it's always intense. He takes the authoritarian/parental role and she resents when he does that, because he acts like their father when he does.

Thinking about her father is an tough thing for Kelsey to deal with, because they're were so many things she didn't get a chance to say to him after he began rapidly aging. She had many opportunities during the times that she came home during her breaks at school, but couldn't bring herself to walk up the stairs in the old estate and see him in the state he was in. When she was younger, her father was always Kelsey's superman; one of the few people she depended on and knew that they would be there no matter what whenever she needed him, but as he got "sick", he couldn't be that anymore. It was like watching her father lose a piece of himself with each time she saw him until it got to the point of where she couldn't handle it. But, when Caleb called her and told her that he was getting worse, Kelsey took it as that he wasn't going to live much longer and was determined to see her father one last time before that happened.

Kelsey wiped away the tears that began to fall as she began thinking about her father and tried looking around in the darkness for a distraction. She used to bring some light in the room, so she could at least see the inside of where she was, but gasped when she did. Kelsey rose to her feet and looked around, remembering the many times she and Brooke played in this room when they were kids. "He brought me to the old Danver's estate." She whispered to herself, before turning to the door and used to get the lock open. 'Chase isn't too smart.' She thought to herself as she walked into the main hallway and looked up the long staircase to the place she put off going for the longest time. Kelsey then took a deep breath and started walking up the stairs, but stopped halfway there, when she heard the front door open.

Cliff hangers are fun!

Is Chase coming back to check on her, or is it someone else?

(Before I forget, theyre was alittle discrepancy with the two different places I used in this story, mainly the Putnam Barn and the Old Danvers' estate… it was only brief in two chapters, so I went back and fixed them…)

Anyway, I will try to update again soon…

Plz Review!

OH

And Happyy Halloween!
