Hailey's POV

Having to calmly walk back to the dorms and change in to more comfortable clothing, like I do every day and then calmly walking back to the school grounds, books in hand was the act of the day.

Today was not an ordinary day.

Today was the day I find out a few things but one of them, the most important of all was to find out if Thomas was okay.

The day was especially draining.

The teachers didn't even give us much work to do, most just had us read for learning. The bad feeling and heavy tension was weighing everyone down. Clearly the teachers too.

To be honest, my intuition was screaming at me to take cover. Protect myself by staying in my room and waiting for whatever this feeling is to go away but Thomas. I am worried about him and after he risked getting beat up by Jaxon's friends, I owed him plenty.

Walking in to Mrs Gellars office, I find it empty. The entire school was actually empty, which was terrifying and definitely unusual. Mrs Gellar was always in her office and students would be running around acting like fools.

Today, not even school security was present.

If a pin dropped, I'd hear it. That's how quiet it was, in a school filled with children. Was there a meeting I did not know about? But Thomas's bloody stench was still in this office.

Definitely stronger but it ended here. I could not smell him anywhere.

"Also, how am I smelling him right now?" I ask myself. Chuckling to shake off the weird feeling in my gut.

I hear distant sounds, choosing to follow them quietly and I see Jaxon. He was talking to Azuri, holding hands as they stare in to each other's eyes. I felt a pang in my heart, followed by a stab and then the entire thing falling to pieces as they hug each other.

My insides wanted to lash out at them but the coward in me stayed rooted in place. What would I say?

What if he denies me in front of Azuri? I'd die of embarrassment. He denied her before, why wouldn't he do it to me?
