Chapter 13
I went back home and went straight upstairs. I was just so worried about Kirill. The love of my life had gotten hurt again and there was nothing I couldn't do anything about it. I wanted to ask Jason what had happened. Had he seen the person who had shot Kirill? Did he shoot Kirill? There were so many questions that I wanted to be answered.
I left the doors unlocked,just in case Jason was going to come in. I wasn't going to be surprised if he came into the house anyways. And something was starting to happen. I was starting not to be afraid. I wonder if I was starting to trust Kirill's words.
About fifteen minutes later I heard someone coming up the stairs. I knew it was Jason. And I was right.
"Hi,"he said as he stopped at the doorway. "Are you all right?"
I nodded. "Yeah. I'm fine."
"Do you want me to get anything?"
I shook my head. "No. I'm fine."
"How's he doing?"
"He's getting better. He'll be out in three days."
"That's good."
"Did he tell you…?"
"About what?"
"Did he tell you everything that happen?"
"Yes he did."
"I tried to stop him Jason. I really did."
He sighed. "I know."
"Then…why are you being so nice to us?"
"I forgave him."
"But he tried to kill you."
"And I tried to kill him too. So we're in the same boat here."
"Who did it?"
"What do you mean?"
"Who shot him?"
"I don't know…"
"Oh."
"I think it was one of his bosses' colleague's too."
"You were watching us?"
"Look down."
I did. He had wired me. "Sneaky bastard,"I whispered.
"I want to know who's after him too."
I let out a little groan. Jason's facial expression changed.
"Are you all right?"
I nodded. "Yeah. I'm just going to have another baby."
"Looks like you might be having twins."
"God I hope not."
He let out a little laugh. "Well,I guess I'll go now."
"Wait."
"Yeah?"
"You might as well as stay here." Ok,what the hell was I doing,I thought.
"You sure?"
I nodded. "It'll be much safer knowing that you're here."
"He won't mind will he?"
"What he won't know won't him."
"I see. You like to take risks."
"I trust you."
"Thanks."
"The guest room is down the hall."
"Thanks,"and he left the room.
I couldn't believe I was doing this. I was letting Jason stay in my house. But I knew that I had nothing to fear now. I could trust his man now. It was going to be much safer with him here.

One step closer
By: Linkin Park
I'm about
to break
I need a little room to breathe
'Cause I'm one
step closer to the edge
And I'm about to break
I'm
about to break
This room to breathe
This room to breathe
This room to breathe
I cannot take this anymore
Saying
everything I've said before
All these words, they make no sence
I found bliss in ignorance
Less I hear, the less you say
You'll find that out anyway
I find the answers aren't so
clear
Wish I could find a way to disappear
All these
thoughts, they make no since
I found bliss in ignorance
Nothing
seems to go away
Over and over again
Just like before
Everything you say to me
And I'm about to break
I
need a little room to breathe
And I'm about to break
Everything you say to me
And I'm about to break
I
need a little room to breathe
And I'm about to break
These
are the places where I can feel torn from my body
My flesh, it
peels during this ride we can cut upwhat we like
I'm about to
break
Waiting alone, I cannot resist
Feeling this hate, I
have never missed
Please, someone, give me a reason to rip off my
face
Blood is a pouring
And pouring
And pouring
And
pouring
And pouring
And pouring
And pouring
And
pouring
And pouring
And pouring
Shut up when I'm
talking to you
Shut up
Blood is pouring
Shut up
Blood
is pouring
Shut up
Blood is pouring
Shut up when I'm
talking to you
Shut up
Blood is pouring
Shut up
Blood
is pouring
Shut up
Blood is pouring
Shut up
I'm
about to break
Everything you say to me
And I'm about
to break
I need a little room to breathe
And I'm about to
break
Everything you say to me
And I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
And I'm about to
Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer to the
edge
And I'm about to break
I need a little room to breathe
'Cause I'm one step closer to the edge
And I'm about to
break
Everything you say to me
Takes me one step closer
to the edge
And I'm about to break
I need a little room to
breathe
'Cause I'm one step closer to the edge
And I'm
about to

About ten minutes later I heard someone trying to wake me up. Jason was shaking me.
"Nicole! Are you all right? Were you having a nightmare?"he asked. He looked scared.
I shook my head. "No. I was having flashbacks again."
"About what?"
"Different things…"
"Tell me."
"About things that happened when I was younger…I keep seeing my parents die."
"I'll stay here with you."
"I'm fine. Really. I'm fine."
"How long has this been going on."
I went silent for a bit,and then I answered. "They started happening the day Kirill arrived…two years ago."
"And they haven't gone away since?"
"They come and go."
"This is serious. Does he know?"
"Yeah.
"I'm going to stay near you tonight?"
"Where will you sleep?"
"On the floor. I need to keep sure you're going to be ok."
"Ok then."
