For the rest of the day Jc stayed with me, and it made me feel not so alone, but at the same time I had this uneasy feeling. This feeling was like, there's more to come. That sounds really specific, hopefully I'm just being paranoid. 

It's coming toward the end of the day and I'm hungry, like there's no denying it now. Jc has been trying to get me to eat, but I've been rejecting everything. 

"Okay I know for a fact you're hungry now Violet, I know dinner is your favorite meal of the day" damn it, he knows me too well, "So I'm gonna go pick something up" he said standing up.

He gave me a quick kiss then left. I was walking back over to the couch and heard my phone make a 'ding' noise, signaling I have a notification. I haven't been on my phone all day, but that notification gave me a bad feeling and for some reason I went and checked it. It was a text message from a blocked number, "Eat up Violet, you'll need your energy." 
This had to be one person.. Zander. Before I could panic my friend Vanessa texted me, "Bitch are you okay!?" 

Me: Yeah..why?

Vanessa: I saw Jc's tweet from earlier 

What? What tweet? I immediately went to Twitter and saw his tweet, along with hundreds of tweets at me wondering if I'm okay.

"Hey babe I forgot my keys.." he stopped at the doorway and stopped talking, probably curious why I'm on my phone, "Is everything all right?" he asked walking towards me, but stopped when he saw my face, "What did I do?" he asked confused

"I saw your tweet" I said sternly, a little ticked off

He looked like he was about to make up an excuse, but stopped himself, "Look I was gonna bring it up, but not now.. what did you want me to do? I was mad" he exclaimed

"I wanted you to leave all of this off of social media" I said using my hand motions for emphases 

"I know, but I couldn't delete it, then people would start asking questions" he defended innocently

"People are asking questions!" I said raising my voice slightly to get my point across

"Even more questions" he said back, I just drug my hands down my face in frustration, "I'm sorry, but we can't do anything about it now, and we can try putting a tweet out later clearing things up-"

"Oh great! More tweets!" I said accidentally yelling. I sat down on the edge of the bed feeling guilty, "I'm sorry, I'm just.. frustrated" 

"I know babe, it's fine" he said sitting down next to me grabbing my hand in his, "I'm sorry about the tweet, I should've thought of you before doing it" he said softly, kissing my hand

"It's okay, it's not that big of a deal, I just don't feel like having to talk to each of my friends telling them I'm fine and them asking about the situation.." I said letting out a breath and laying my head on Jc's shoulder

A few seconds later Jc broke the soothing silence, "Why were you on your phone anyways?" he asked quietly. Oh god.. that reminds me. I got really quiet and lifted my head up, I couldn't bring myself to say it out loud so I just handed him my phone with the text message on it. 

After he read it he's entire aura had changed. 

"Who sent this!?" he said standing up, re-reading the text

"It's a blocked number.." I said hesitantly, he gave me a look like 'tell the truth', "I think it's from Zander.." I said dropping my head

"How would he know that you haven't been eating?" he said getting paniky

"I don't know, it's not like I was just on the phone with him" I said sarcastically, standing up in front of him

"Then.." he stopped and I could tell his mind was going a mile a minute

"He could've just guessed.." I said calmly trying to put his mind at ease

"We can't take any chances" he said going in my closet

"Jc what are you doing?" I asked following him in my closet to see him shoving clothes in a bag 

"We can't risk it, you're coming to stay with me" he said still packing 

"Okay Jc just wait-" I said and grabbed hs arm as he walked past me, but he jerked away

"No Violet! I'm not gonna sit back while this psycho stalks you!" he said getting mad 

"I can't just pack up and leave" I said not getting mad because I understand that he's just scared

" Well you can't stay, he could really be stalking you-"

"He could really not be stalking me" I said back to him 

"Why would you risk it?" he said looking at me like I was insane

"Because I've been running from him for a while and I'm sick of it"

"This isn't about your morals anymore Violet, this is about your safety" he said sternly

"This is what he wants-"

"No you staying here is what he wants" and I stopped and thought about, he continued, "You think you're safer here, but he somehow already knew something that he had to be watching us for a while to know and if he can do that he could break in or worse.." he really had a way of convincing, "You staying here, or even me staying here with you, isn't gonna give me any piece of mind.. and I know you'll be just as paranoid as I will be" he finished, softening up. He is right though, I can't be here where I know in my heart that he can get in, somehow.

"Fine. Just let me pack."
