EVELINE

I get through the rest of the classes the rest of the day, barely hanging on.  I later hang out with the group on the lounge. Eden is not present, half of the time and everyone can feel the space when he is not around. I am about to start feeling bad but Nicole looks at me and smiles at me, dissipating the feeling.

I leave to go in my room, telling them that I will see them tomorrow. I get in my room and I find Zane lying in my bed. I shut the door with a thud and he doesn't even budge nor open his eyes.

"What are you doing here?" I really wanted to be alone today and try to find some stability within.

"I wasn't finding you so I figured I would come here and wait for you. It worked."

"I want to sleep alone in my bed today," I say not really feeling to be in a mood that requires a lot of mind games and that is what he is best at.

"I heard what happened. I wanted to be here for you," he says and then seats up, swinging his feet off the bed.
