Lost & Found

Time to decide

Kyle's POV:

When Bryan came back, I immediately knew he didn't have good news for me. But after what happened, I was kind of expecting it. She was running away from me even when I talked to her so after our kiss I was waiting for something like that to happen.

"You were right, they are not coming." he said crushing on his bed.

I was at my desk trying to find her Insta or f*******:. But without any luck. And I was more concerned about that. What seventeen year old didn't have social media?

"How did she look?"

"Honestly? Really messed up." He sounded worried. "Are you sure this is your mate? She comes with a lot of baggage."

"It has to be her. I am sure of it. Especially after that kiss. She has to be my mate."

Bryan took some time before answering: "Okay, Kyle. I'm going to say something you won't like but you should really think about it, alright?" he said and made me look at him. "At first I thought she just wanted to be chased. Now I think there's something seriously messed up with her and you should be careful."

He was right. I didn't like it. At all. "You don't get it. I can't just let her be. She is mine. Or she will be once I make her admit it."

"Can you at least slow down a little? If she really is your mate, the bond will make her come to you anyway."

He wasn't wrong about that. But it still didn't mean it would be easy. I could only think about that kiss. I was still feeling her sweet taste. I could track every spot on my neck she touched. I could feel that amazing feeling when she was so close to me. But then I remembered about another hug. The one she gave to freaking Nathan.

"Think about it, Kyle. You really don't have to rush into this. You both have a lot of time. It's great you met so early, it gives you the luxury to take your time." I was too pissed to think about this clearly right now.

"Speaking of it, I know exactly what we should do in the meantime." I should have seen this coming.

"I really don't care about that stupid party."

"Yes, but you should care. You owe me, remember?"

Alice's POV:

That night I had no dreams. Thank god for it. I was scared to close my eyes after everything. I didn't know what to expect. Psycho Dalia from my nightmares hating me for what I did or Kyle with his arms. Even when the second option didn't sound bad, I still didn't like the idea. I could feel I was slowly (not really) falling for him. The stupid bond was working perfectly you could say.

I was really thankful for Stella. She did so much for me already. When she looked at me, it was still the same friendly face. No judgment in her eyes, just compassion.

We dressed up and headed to the kitchen. I couldn't really think about food but I took at least some toasts and glass of water. Stella didn't have that kind of a problem. She quickly took some pancakes and headed to our table.

"You have to be quick here. Some of the guys are ready to fight for these delicious pancakes. Don't get me wrong, I would fight for it too."

I smiled: "I can clearly see it."

While eating breakfast we had to laugh at our classmates. It was pretty obvious who attended the party and who didn't. Vivienne tried her best to hide her pale face, but you could say she wasn't in her best condition. I had to admit that I was enjoying it. Kyle and Bryan didn't show up to my surprise. I thought they were still sleeping.

"Stella? Don't you know in which room Kyle lives?"

Stella almost choked on the last piece of her pancake.

"Room 208. I used to bring him my notes. Why?"

"I should stop by before he comes to find me. I need to handle this as soon as possible."

"So did you decided what to do with him?"

What did she mean: "There's nothing I can do about it. I have to stay away from him."

Stella didn't look really happy about my answer: "Look Ali. I didn't want to push you in any way. I'm really honored that you opened up to me and told me about Dalia...but there is still a lot of things you didn't tell. I understand there is some connection between Dalia and Kyle. That she is the reason you are holding back. But I honestly have no idea what's that all about."

I guess she was right. I told her about the accident but that really wasn't as much as I thought. There was still a lot that stayed unspoken.

"I promise I will tell you more later. But not right now. Honestly, I'm still surprised that I was able to talk to you yesterday."

She was curious, I could tell. But still respected my feelings and let it be. She was honestly the sweetest girl for dealing with this after knowing me so shortly.

"I will go to find Kyle now." I said and left. I was debating every step I made but I really needed to talk to him and to let him go. And there was only one way how to do it.

"You can't be serious right now." as soon as Ama understood my decision, she freaked out.

"I have to do this."

"NO! You really don't have to. It is also my mate, you can't decide for both of us." she screamed and made me stop.

"Let me go. You can't find me for long enough anyway. As soon as I handle this, we can heal and forget."

"NO! You can't do this to us." even when she fought with me, after few seconds I took control of my body once again and I headed straight to second floor. If I wanted to reject Kyle, I had to admit to him the truth. I wasn't sure which part would be harder and couldn't really think about it for long. I was scared I would run away.
