Hey guys, this chapter is a bit short, sorry! I'd really love it if you guys can review!! I'd appreciate it a lot. But anyways…there's not a lot to say about this chapter so…enjoy!


Aislin's P.O.V.

The sounds of birds singing hit my ears and my eyes shot open. I sat up in my bed and looked around me. The bedroom looked untouched and Niko wasn't next to me. I felt like I had just woken up from a bad dream. I knew I hadn't from a dream though, once I looked down at my hands and clothes. I was covered in filth and my salon pampered nails were starting to fall off. I got out of bed and walked into the bathroom and turned on the shower. As I waited for the water to heat up, I took a quick tour of the house. Jason had obviously brought me back, so where was he? Was he still in the house, watching me? Or was he back at the camp? And if he was back at the old camp, was he going to come back for me? Was he let me going to live here in peace? All these thoughts invaded my mind as I walked around the house and found nothing. No bodies, no Jason…no sign of anything. The house wasn't even dirty, just a few dust bunnies here and there. I looked at the clock on the mantle of the fireplace; it read 10:17 A.M.

I walked back into the bathroom and shut the door and locked it. I knew it would be no problem for Jason to come in but I felt a bit more secure knowing the door was locked. I stripped off my clothes and jumped into the shower. I furiously washed my hair. It felt so good to have that hot water running all over my body. It felt even more amazing to have the filth and grime washed away.

I stayed in the shower for what seemed like hours but once I was done I dried my hair and got dressed. I did another walk around the house before deciding to leave. I noticed Niko's big black 2010 Tahoe sitting outside and I rolled my eyes. I knew that something would have to be done about his car because his family was sure to stop by and notice the car here and him missing. Niko's car was like his second girlfriend…or maybe his third or fourth. I grabbed his keys off a small table near the door and walked outside. I had to get rid of this stupid ass thing.

I jumped in and looked for a Chevy dealer using the built in navigation system. Thankfully, there wasn't one too far away. I figured I would just trade in the Tahoe for something else…for something a little more my style. I smiled to myself before speeding off.

Jason's P.O.V.

I watched her as she sped away and wondered if she was going to come back. I hoped so…I hoped that I didn't just let her live so the little bitch can just run off. For the first time in a very, very long time I actually did something decent and I get spit in the face for it. Maybe I'm overreacting…maybe she'll come back. I'll hang around the house, in case she does come back.

…6 Hours Later…

Aislin's P.O.V.

Today was long but well worth it. I traded in Niko's Tahoe for a slick silver 2010 camaro. I was quite pleased with myself. I smiled as I got out of the car and walked to the house. I felt like I had officially gotten rid of Niko, even if it was just his car. I unlocked the door and stepped inside.

It was very quiet, it was pretty eerie. I took a deep breath and tried to calm my nerves as I stepped further into the living room. I plopped down on the couch and began to look around for the remote. Typical…when I need it, I can't find where it is. I pursed my lips and stood up, deciding to take a nap for a bit. I hadn't seen or heard from Jason, so I figured he was going to leave me alone. I also figured that he wanted to be left alone.

I walked to my bedroom and everything seemed fine until I crossed the threshold and was grabbed. I knew who it was but I screamed loudly anyways. I sounded like I was being murdered. I thrashed about wildly while Jason tried to keep me close to his body. "Let go!" He didn't put me down and I wasn't quite sure what he was going to do with me.

He walked over to the bed and threw me down onto it. I slightly bounced back up due to the force of his throw. I turned around and cowered at the sight of him. I couldn't see his face but his eyes told me that he was pissed off. I wasn't sure what to say or what to do. I just stared up at him, my eyes pleading with his, telling them not to hurt me.

Jason's P.O.V.

I looked down at her and I saw the same fear that she possessed when she first saw me. I didn't want her to fear me but I didn't want her to fully trust me. I was a loose cannon and I would always be one. I had to make her understand that she couldn't just leave whenever she wanted. I had to know that she wasn't going to run from me. Maybe I was stupid to believe that such a beautiful girl could ever love a monster like me.

Her eyes pleaded with me and I knew that I couldn't hurt her. I wanted to take her back to the tunnels but that wouldn't be fair to her. I picked her up from the bed and she froze in my arms. I could tell that she was afraid to move. I felt her eyes looking up at me as I walked to the front door. I set her down on the grounded and pointed at the silver car that was parked where the black one used to be parked. "…I had to get rid of it. If Niko's family saw his car here without him, they would know that something was up." Her voice was low and mousy. The poor girl was on edge, but I had to strike fear into her heart. Living with me wouldn't be a walk in the park.

I glanced back over at the car and wondered if I would have the pleasure of meeting Niko's family and if I would be able to kill them. I was lost in a sea of thoughts until she interrupted them. "Did you think I was leaving for good?" I merely nodded. "…I have nowhere else to go…" So was that the only reason she was here…because she had no other place to live? I looked down at the ground for a split second then brought my attention back to her. How was I going to make her understand that she couldn't just leave whenever her heart desired?

I took her keys out of her hand and put them in my pocket. She stared up at me, not sure of what I wanted. I took her hand in mine and led her back into the house. She walked over to the couch and sat down. She seemed a bit more relaxed than she was a few moments ago. I took the keys from my pocket and tossed them on the table. I had to think of a different way to tell her, but how? I turned towards the glass doors that lead to the back yard and stared out at the lake. I felt her eyes piercing my skin. "…I'll tell you the next time I need to go somewhere…I didn't mean to worry you." Seems like I didn't need to find another way to tell her, she understood my frustration.

I slowly walked back over to her and sat next to her on the couch. I recalled the night before and how badly I wanted to have my lips upon hers. I fought the urge to try again. I remember the look on her face. I was still unsure if it was disgust or confusion. I looked down at her body, she seemed so relaxed. I stood up and began to walk away but then she called for me. "Wait! … Where are you going?" I turned and looked down at her. Her eyes were pleading with me again. This time they were telling me to stay with her. I wasn't sure why she wanted me to stick around but I walked over to a chair and sat down.

I continued to watch her and I saw her lips purse when I sat down in the chair. She patted the couch seat next to her. "Come sit with me…" Her voice sounded a bit pouty, like she was a needy puppy. I stood up slowly and made my way over to her, feeling her eyes following me with my every movement.

Once I sat down, nothing seemed to change. Her body was relaxed but she didn't move any closer to me. She flicked through the channels then landed on some movie. I wasn't sure how old it was but it didn't look like anything new. I never watch television but I know enough to know that movies aren't made in black and white anymore.

I wasn't paying much attention to the movie but I had heard a woman screaming, she was watching an old horror movie. I looked down at her wrist and saw the bracelet I gave her. A smile almost made its way across my lips. I was distracted when she moved. She put her head down onto a pillow and let her feet dangle off the couch. I wondered why she just didn't put her feet onto my legs. I watched her eyes slowly begin to close as she drifted off to sleep.

I stood up and left the house. I wanted to leave her alone. I would be back, that was for sure. I stopped at the back door and turned around to look at Aislin's sleeping form. I slowly walked back over, not wanting to disturb her. I lifted my mask up and cocked my head to the side. I bent down and planted a slight kiss on her cheek. She stirred slightly but didn't wake up. I stood back up and put my mask back down and made my way out the door and back to my camp.
