Hayley's POV

Once I woke up I sat up and I felt better than I had in months. I hopped up out of bed and had the strangest craving for pancakes so I went downstairs and made some and left some out for Ross for when he got up. I poured a glass from the fridge and set it down on the counter. I ate my pancakes and syrup and drank the glass no problem and then I was outside in the backyard looking around in the bordering tree line because I was bored and Ross wasn't up yet. I jumped up and was climbing around in the trees and found squirrels, birds nests, and there was a great view from where I was. I heard the sliding door open and could feel Ross walk outside. I jumped down from the tree to right in front of him (which was about a 30 foot jump) and placed a quick kiss on his lips. "Morning baby, how are you?" I asked enthusiastically. Ross looked at me confusedly.

"I'm only asking this because I'm worried about you... are yousure you're okay? You really don't seem yourself"

"Like I said Ross never better I feelAMAZING! Maybe getting out of the house for the night was just what I needed to keep myself from going clinically insane!" he still looked at me a little unsurely. "Will you quit worrying me? You're the one who was going crazy last night trying not to kill anyone!" Ross squinted for a second as if he thought he was hallucinating seeing something. He reached up and pulled a piece of my hair forward. "Did you do something to your hair?" he asked.

"Nope, why? Is something wrong with it?" I asked taking it out of his hair and examining it trying to see what's wrong with it.

"I don't think anything's wrong with it... it just seem... darker... your hair is usually a milky brown... it seems almost black now... and it's straighter"

"Ross... I think something's wrong with you" I turned him around and started pushing him back inside "You need to go eat your pancakes"

For the next few hours I was watching Ross carefully to make sure he didn't seem sick... but he seemed fine, so I don't see what his problem with me is right now. We were sitting on the couch and I was leaned back against him and he was leaning on the end of the couch running his fingers through my hair. Ross seemed to be on a completely other planet so I easily slipped into his thoughts and found the only thing he was thinking about right now was that guy from the fair last night. I immediately sat up and looked back at him. Ross seemed surprised that I moved and he looked at me. "What's your deal with that guy from the fair! I mean, I can't stand the b**** either but you're obsessing over him!"

"Because he did something to you Hayley, why can't you see that?!"

"Because you'reCRAZY!"

"Yeah, Crazy 4 U (1) Hayley... you know I know basically everything about you and that I'd notice if something was off!"

"Really?"

"Really! Your hair is basically black and straight, your eyes are bright green instead of forest, and you seem to have some kind of wild desire in you kiss where there's usually passion, that b**** did something to you, I just can't figure out what"

"And I think you've just gone off the deep end"

"You know what? Forget it, you're not listening to me no matter how much I try to emphasize that I would have no good reason to lie to you" Ross said and got up off the couch and went to walk out of the room.

"Ross-" I started and got up to got after him.

"No Hayley, you don't wanna listen to me? Fine, I don't give a f***" he up the stairs and walking toward his room but I caught up and kissed him. No matter how mad he ever get, whether it be at me or anything/anyone else, he always melts in a kiss. I held his shoulders and felt him slide his hands onto my waist. I didn't want to let go of him but I suddenly started feeling that wild side myself and I broke off, turned the other way, and took a few steps toward the stairs. I grabbed the railing and leaned over a little on it. I was getting a little dizzy and felt like I was about to collapse. I felt Ross's hand on my shoulder. "Hayls?" I heard faintly. I felt myself tipping a little and the ground was spinning under me. "S***" I mumbled slowly lowering myself to the floor and leaning back on the railing posts.

"Hayley, what's wrong" Ross asked holding my hand. He was blurry in front of me and I wasn't sure how loud I was talking. "I- I don't know... I'm dizzy and, s***" I said as I started getting a massive pain in my upper left arm. I felt Ross pick me up and then suddenly felt the cool dusk air and knew we were outside. I was fine once I took in a few breaths. "Hayley what happened in there?" Ross asked.

"I don't know" I answered unsurely. I looked over at my arm and could see the nail shaped cut was glowing bright red and was starting to freak out inside. Then a sentence from last night randomly flashed through my mind."I don't think you get that I'm not told no"Came Ryan's chilling voice. F***... was this what he meant?
