Annette stared at herself in the mirror wearing a tight black dress with a low cut front and strappy heels, this was defiantly not her. She felt out of place and uncomfortable in it most of all she felt it was too revealing to wear, for her anyways. Annette cautiously turned around facing the chair beside her bed.

"I'm not sure about this outfit...It's just not..."

"You?"

Annette nodded as Cara finished the statement for her, but Cara shook her head with a smile.

"You look great in it, what do you mean it's not you?"

Annette turned to look at herself once again then slowly replied.

"It's not that I don't like it Cara it's just, I'm not comfortable in outfits like this. It's obvious you are but its just not in my comfort zone."

Cara stood and walked next to Annette and looked at herself in the mirror. Cara was wearing a short black skirt as usual, with a tight red corset styled top that cut low and the sleeves went to her mid arm. The shirt was some what iridescent in that it was black but red at the same time regardless to say it complemented her well and she way out shined Annette. She smiled then spoke words of confidence to Annette wanting to get out and party.

"Come on Annette where is you sense of adventure come on its going to be fun."

Annette nodded and grabbed her coat and the two headed for the door.

Not much later the pair had arrived at a club and Cara immediately went out to the dance floor urging Annette to do the same. A guy came up to Cara and the two were talking happily and flirting as they danced together Cara barely even notice Annette calmly leave the dance floor. When the two finished their dance, Cara went in search of Annette who she found sipping water and sitting alone. Typical was the word that came to Cara's mind when she saw her. However she was set to play nice so she went up and sat next to Annette.

"Hey... are you ok?"

"Yeah, I just am a little tired."

Annette replied untruthfully when in reality she was thinking of Sebastian and the jacket Cara had on earlier that very day.

"Oh... do you wanna leave?" Cara questioned with false concern.

"Yeah... but you can stay I'll find my own way home."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes you seem like your having such a good time ... I'll just take a cab."

"Ok if that's what you want. I'll talk to you later?"

Annette nodded as she grabbed her stuff and headed for the door. She made one last look before leaving and the guy Cara was dancing with had already reproached her and they were talking flirtatiously. She sighed and exited the club wondering if she should go see Sebastian or not tonight.

Cara let out a sigh as she once again resumed flirting with the guy she had met moments before. However he was quite dull and she was looking for an excuse to escape.

"Hey, I'll be right back...Wait for me?"

She said in a flirting manner.

"Where are you going?"

Cara pointed towards the bathrooms and he nodded in agreement that he would wait for her. She set off towards the bathroom but had a distinct feeling that someone was following her or watching her at the least.

The bathroom was empty and strikingly bright. She blinked as she turned water on and ran her hands under it trying to cool off for it was sickeningly hot in there. In the brief moment she looked down she felt a cool hand on her shoulder. She paused not standing up straight and the hand trailed down her back till it reached the bottom of her shirt and then a mans arm went around her waist. She stood up straight looking in the mirror in shock. The man she saw had dark hair and was very handsome and very familiar to her anyways. He grinned and wrapped his other arm around her waist pulling her against him. Her eyes went wide as he whispered in her ear.

"I've missed you Cara."

Was all he said as he brought his mouth to her shoulder and kissed it. She gave in only for a moment then pulled away whirling around and backing up eyes wide in fear.

"Nathan, what are you doing here?"

"Well I was hanging out seeing how it is a public place then I saw you. I missed you so much Cara." He stated again the fact that he missed her. Her eyes grew darker with anger and she smacked him in the face swiftly.

"I'm sure to hell you did!"

She screamed at him. He grabbed her arm and pushed her against the sink unfazed by her hit.

"Oh I did baby, and I know you missed me."

He stated as he pushed his body to hers and kissed her once again on the neck.

"Get the hell off me, you bastered!"

She yelled filled with anger and fear. He smiled devilishly and picked her up and sat her on the sink pushing her back into the faucet and mirror. He trailed a finger down her lips and throat stopping at he beginning of her shirt.

"What are we gonna do about this?"

He sated more then questioned while pulling at the top of her shirt. A single tear slid down her cheek as he pushed her harder against the mirror while letting his hands roam over her shirt. She regained her thoughts and pushed him away hoping off the sink but he grabbed her by the shirt and it tore slightly. Whipping her around he knocked her to the ground and pinned her there. She struggled but he hit her hard on the mouth drawing blood. He kissed her hard and violently on the mouth as she struggled making his grip tighter on her. With one hand he forcefully pulled her on leg up tearing the small slit higher. She pushed on him trying to get him off her but he would not budge instead he hit her again drawing more blood from her lip. She gave in a moment and he loosened his grip and she slipped away running towards the door but he was faster and pushed her against the wall smacking her several times.

"What the hell is wrong with you bitch, you know you like it."

Just then another person entered the restroom and he let go shaking his finger in her face.

"This isn't over whore!"

He yelled as he stormed out and Cara slumped to the floor feeling drained and hurt.

Sebastian was sitting in his apartment smoking and thinking. Earlier that day he had visited Blaine and told him all about what was going on and questioned him to see if he knew who this Cara was. Unfortunately Blaine apparently knew nothing of her nothing of use anyway. The whole situation was driving him insane he wanted to know what the hell was up with her. He slowly discarded his cigarette and walked towards the door. Tonight he was going to find out who she was no if ands or buts about it. After no time Sebastian made his way into his old home and found it empty. He decided to wait however because this person was eating away at his mind and he wanted it to end. About an hour later he heard a car pull up and a door slam shut. Slowly he heard the door slide open and shut again.

Cara entered her current home sore and shaken she slowly entered and noticed a light on in the parlor. Hesitantly she walked towards it fear filling her due to the earlier events. Nathan's words rang in her mind.

"This isn't over whore!"

She shivered as she still felt his touch on her body. Shakily she walked into the parlor where she saw Sebastian seated on the sofa. He stood immediately when he saw her, his face utterly in shock. Cara struggled but managed a slight smile just before she collapsed to the floor in exhaustion. Before he could think Sebastian ran to her and picked her up in his arms. Looking at her body he saw red marks from hits and blood trickling down her lips. Her skirt was ripped as well as her top and she looked so tired. He cradled her in his arms and carried her to a room, his room. Laying her on his bed he covered her up and began to leave unsure of what happened. However before he could reach the bedroom door she called out to him.

"Sebastian."

She said in a loud whisper that made him turn and immediately sit by her side. He had never seen someone so beaten before well a girl anyways. She smiled as he sat beside her his eyes questioning.

"What happened to you?"

He asked her slowly and kindly. She turned her head away for a moment then turned back to him a tear trailing down her cheek.

"I ran into an old friend."

She said with cold hate and anger. Sebastian looked into her eyes seeing nothing but fear and pain. He took her face in his hands then got up and went into the bathroom returning moments later with a damp towel. She said nothing as he cleaned the blood off her face, all she could do was look into his eyes. He left once again returning with ice and another towel. She uncovered her self kicking of her shoes she leaned back pulling of her shirt revealing more scratches and marks. He cleaned her up and held ice to a really bad injury on her stomach the two said nothing but looked into each others eyes. A few moments passed by as they sat like that in silence. Cara slowly moved her hand on his that was holding the ice to her and moved it away and threw the ice to the side. She leaned up to him and kissed him softly on the lips. When she pulled away she saw confusion and questioning in his eyes but neither said anything. She nodded and wrapped her arms around his neck. Pulling him closer to her as the kisses became deeper. Slowly she pulled him down on top of her. He moved his hands up her side to her face as they let the world wash away. The pain and the problems swam into nothingness as the two became completely consumed in one another.

Annette sat in silence in Sebastian's apartment wondering where the hell he was. She had left early from her night out and later came to his apartment to spend the hours of the night with him but he was no where to be seen she wrapped up in a blanket on the couch and fell asleep alone.
