(Fast note if it doesn't say who's POV it is then it is violets"
"The place looks the same, Everyone still living here"? I ask. They all glance at each other, I can sense there hesitation. "I can put two and two together you know.. I know I was pretty innocent, I didn't always pick up on social cues but I am not 18-year-old violet anymore.." I glance at the pretty blonde hair women standing close to Jake Like he is her favorite toy and I was about to take it. How was he ever interested in me? She is like a model, of course, he wants her. Ok, violet remember they thought you were dead.
"You must be Jakes girlfriend" I smiled as real of a smile as I could manage. I watch her place her hand on his shoulder showing off an engagement ring. She looks like she is trying to one-up me. I try my hardest to not react, Show no emotion. I had learned how to do this a lot while living with kyle. "Wow that is some ring" I glance at jake, He is looking at his hands.
"When is the wedding"? This is not what I expected to come home too. "Not for some time, With the hunters and all we didn't think it was the right time" I looked at Katie not wanting to look at the happy couple any longer. He moved on. He.. Jake is getting married. He who wasn't even sure he wanted a girlfriend.
Derek fills me in on the hunters. Jake and Evelyn left, heading home, to the home they shared. Katie shows me in my old room. "It is the exact same" I whisper, running my hand over the jewelry box that sits on my nightstand exactly where I left it. "None of us could step foot in her after.. well you know" I nod "Evelyn could of" I instantly regret it after.
I look at kaite "I didn't mean that.. He has a right to move on, I just hope she is nice" I look down secretly hoping Katie isn't close with her. "Honestly vi, She is a bitch. She acts sweet when he is around but is awful when he is not, She hates Emily and never allows him to go anywhere alone but she was there every second he grieved you, Getting her claws into him, She kind of reminds me of Haylie" I stare at her shocked.
"We haven't said anything because he is Jake and when we lost you things could have been way worse," Emily tells me standing behind Katie. I smile. "I missed you guys so much" Tears threating to escape. Emily walks towards me hugging me, Katie joins us a few moments later. A sudden fear dawns on me.
"Kyle..He will look her for me" I start trembling with fear. I can not go back. I just can't. "He will never get you again, I promise" Emily hugs me tighter. I nod feeling grateful. "I am so sorry you guys had to go through thinking I was dead" Another tear's fall down my face. We spend a few hour's catching up, Mostly them I am not ready to tell them everything I went through. I told them I wanted to lay down and rest a bit. Not a lie but not quite true.
So much has happened today..Hell this last five years. Laying down on the bed it didn't take long for me to fall asleep. "You killed me. I have kids! You are not better than that monster who took you" I scream and tried to get away but the lady kept following me, suddenly looking a lot like kyle.
"He never loved you, If it was him who died you would have never moved on" he taunted me. "Just come home" He repeated over and over, I fell to my knees covering my ears, rocking my self. "I am home" I woke up sweat dripping down my forehead. It has been about a month since I came home.
Jake rarely comes over I am sure it has a lot to do with Evie, When he does he barely talks to me, Doesn't make eye contact with me. My time is mostly spent training and catching up with my family. Emily and Derek got married right away. Katie and Nick broke up about a year ago, Apparently too much has happened since they were first together.
Sitting on the windowsill I glance up at the moon, We haven't heard or seen kyle not once, I think that is why I keep having nightmares about him. It seems too good to be true, That is why I train. I will not go back or be weak again. I decided to head downstairs for a cup of coffee. I stopped on the stairs seeing the kitchen light already on.
I stand in the doorway seeing Jake sitting at the table looking down at nothing. "What are you doing here" I question He jumps obviously startled by me. "Shit vi you scared me, I didn't hear you" I nod that was obvious. He sighs, squeezing the bridge of his nose. "Kyle apparently is doing favors for the hunters.. He has been in England that is why we haven't seen or heard from him" I stare at him.
"Maybe he will leave me alone long enough we can have a plan of action in place before he makes his next move," I say. He glances away sighing "That isn't the reason I am here.. It is just awkward.. Evie and I had a fight. Another one" He sighs. I suddenly understand why he felt it was awkward. "Oh.. Umm I am sorry," I say rubbing my neck awkwardly. "Thanks" He looks at me then away again.
"Do you want to talk about it, I might not be the best with advise here.. Seeing as my first and only boyfriend was using me than kidnapped me.. But I can give it my best go" I lightly laugh attempting a joke. He stares at me blinking a few times. "I see you're joking ability hasn't improved much". I look at him, Really look at him For the first time in a long time. I roll my eye's "I was a good joke teller" I defend wanting to keep this conversation going. Realizing how much us not talking is killing me.
Jake looks at me before looks out the window again, I stare remembering things are not the same. Five year's past, time kept moving on. He kept living his life without me. They all did I just gotta find my place here again if I have one.
