The love that Stayed

Chapter 8

Jace POV

She was staring at me like if she had seen a ghost and I didn't blame her, I would too if someone just dropped something like that to me. Afterwards, I took her back to her apartment and I guess she was tired cause when I looked over, she was sleeping happily. I never thought someone could look that amazing by just sleeping, but she looked like an angel. I guess it would be better to see if anyone was home so she could get inside but i dont think it would be a good idea so I just called Asher to see if he knew anything about how to get inside her house.

"Hey Asher"

"Jace? What's up bro!"

"Do you know how to get inside your sister's apartment?" She's asleep and I don't want to wake her up."

"yea, she keeps a key under her doormat"

"ok, thanks bro"

"yea no problem dude."

When I got inside it was all clean and organized and then I saw some pictures, mostly of her and her mom and some with her brothers and some kids and then her stupid ex but those were shattered as if she didn't want them anymore. After looking at them I went to see which room was hers which wasn't hard because she only had one room here. 

Elaine's pov 

It was around 6 am when I woke up in my bed. When the hell did I  get home? Did I drive?  I asked myself. That was until I heard footsteps and saw Jace in the doorway. "How did you get in here?" I asked him. "Asher told me where the key was when we got here yesterday." he told me. "oh" Really?! thats all I could come up with? oh? really?    I internally scolded myself.

After I got ready for school I saw that the pictures of me and Jaylin were in a neat little pile and the shattered glass was in the trash so I made a mental note to thank Jace later since it was almost late again.

It was almost 2 pm and I was getting aggravated with all of these papers and then these friends of mine didn't shut the hell up. "aye Jace" called michael. "What the hell do you f*****g want?!" I yelled at him "damn bro we just wanted to know if you were gonna come eat with us" he said "sorry bro and no i'm not gonna eat soon I gotta sort these papers before our manager comes and I gotta schedule our next concert." I told him. 5 hours later I was done and the guys had gone to their hotel rooms so I just stayed thinking about the conversation I had last night with Elaine. I knew she needed an explanation of why I had left but I didn't know how to tell her and it scared the s**t out of me of how I was gonna tell her and how she was gonna react. I guess I'll tell her when the time comes.
