Patrick's POV"Wha- what are you doing here?" I asked, my voice coming out quieter than expected. My mom stared at me, a confused look on her face."Patrick, are you okay? You look..." I cut her off."It's okay Mom. I'm fine. Could you please excuse us?" I asked, impatient to see her leave the room."O-okay. " She stuttered and left, glancing at us out. Once I was sure she was gone, I hurried towards her."How did you find me!?" I asked, my voice stern. She only smiled smugly."You didn't think you'd hide forever, did you? With what you did?" She asked, contempt lacing her words."Just how? " I repeated."I did my homework, Patrick. Although I have to commend you, you were really smart for not telling anymore you were moving till you disappeared. It took a lot of time to track you but finally, I did and... Here I am.""What do you want? " I found myself asking, agitated.Her expression blanked as her eyes darkened. Holding my gaze, she slowly muttered."I want you to tell the truth. T

Sylvia's POV(Three Days later)I stared at myself in the mirror, combing out my hair. Yesterday was eventful, even with the bad news. I smiled as I remembered how Patrick and I talked way into the night and the kiss he stole before I left. Although I couldn't help but worry about the girl who came earlier and the threat she made. I had asked Patrick if he knew her but he just shrugged it off, not wanting to talk about it.Sighing softly, I arranged my bags and picked up my school bag, walking out of my room."Mom, I'll be on my way now," I called out as I got to the living room."Wait... Won't you have breakfast?" She asked, peeking out of her room, still tired. When I got home yesterday she was still making sweaters. I hurriedly grabbed a banana."That'll do," I replied, smiling. " Bye now. See you later.""You too dear."And with that, I closed the door behind me. Walking towards the bus stop, I took in deep breaths as I glanced around my surroundings. These past months my boring l

Patrick's POV"It's not true...." I began to say, glaring hard at Neville. I've never been so mad in my entire life. " It's not true.""What? Why can't you just admit it?" Neville countered."I can't because I didn't do it," I replied boldly."If you didn't, then why did you run away? Why did you leave without a trace? Answer!""I did what I had to do, okay? But I didn't kill Alyssa.""You know, it's such a waste of time arguing with you. You're never going to admit it. I might as well just go out and tell the cops, let them do their job." She threatened and made to leave the room but Sylvia stood up from the crouched position she was in, cleaning her tears."He didn't do it." She muttered, her voice quiet but sure. Neville stared at her, gobsmacked."What?"***Sylvia's POVTaking in a deep breath, I continued gently, my voice coming out strong."Patrick said he didn't do it... And I believe him.""You're joking, right. Or has he brainwashed you too?" Neville asked me. I shook my hea

Patrick's POV( few days later)Sitting in front of them in the living room, I nervously played with my fingers. I had called them out from whatever they were doing so I could tell them what happened. Taking in a deep breath, I settled my gaze on them."So why did you call us?" My mom asked, breaking the weird silence that had ensued."Mom, dad. There's something I need to tell you.""We're all ears. " My dad replied.I sighed, rubbing my palms together. Taking in a shaky breath, I made to speak."Mom... Dad, I might be in trouble." I began. Mom stared at me, surprise in her eyes."What did you do?""I-it happened before we moved here. I had hosted a goodbye party a few weeks before you told me we were moving. At that party, however, someone died. ""What!? " they chorused together. I swallowed."She was a classmate of mine, but we weren't close. I had invited her to the party but unfortunately, she lost her life. Her name's Alyssa Anthony. ""Wait... Alyssa Anthony? " My dad asked."

Patrick's POVPacking my bags with the needed necessities for my travel back to New Jersey, I wore it on my back and picked up my phone. I'll be traveling back to New Jersey today. I had asked for permission from my parents and they grumpily allowed me to go. Right now, I'm on my way to pick up Sylvia."Dad, Mom. I'll be leaving now." I announced to them once I got downstairs."Okay, son. Take care of yourself." My mum replied, pecking me on the cheek. I smiled."I will. " I bowed a little and headed to my car, driving out.***I arrived at Sylvia's house moments later. The second I had parked at the entrance of her house, she came bursting out through the door. Wearing a simple black gown with cream sweaters and her hair let down, she looked simple yet breathtaking. I walked out of the car to greet her mom before leaving."Hey," I said when I got closer. She beamed in reply. " Good morning, Mrs. Torres. " I greeted her mom."Good morning, dear. How was your night?""Great. I do apolo

Sylvia's POVWhat!?Is Neville for real right now? Why would she want to do that? I watched as Patrick paced around the room, his hands in his hair, ruffling them. "I can't let that happen. I'm in New Jersey for Christ's sake. If she tells, I'll got to jail for sure."I quickly got up and ran towards me, pulling him to face me."We won't let that happen. We'll find something, anything.""When?" He was really agitated now. I gulped, forcing myself to think. What could have killed Alyssa? An idea popped into my head and I went to quickly grab a coat."Where are you going?" Patrick asked."If we stay here, we won't find anything. You know Alyssa's house, right?""Yes. Why?""We need to know the kind of ailment Alyssa had first. And there's only one person who can tell us that. ""Who?""Her parents." I announced. Patrick's eyes widened in shock."No... I can't go there..." He began to say."Patrick, it's Alyssa's parents or jail. Which do you prefer?"He opened his mouth to say somethin

Sylvia's POVIt was time to go back. We had exhausted their days in New Jersey, and everything had been sorted out. Patrick no longer had to carry the guilt of him being responsible for Alyssa's death. I smiled as I remembered all that we did in New Jersey. Although we didn't have sex, the make-out enough was pretty fiery. I never knew Patrick was such a good kisser. How many girls did he try that on??Just before we left, Neville and I talked."Guess you're the lucky one?" She had asked. I glanced at Patrick, who was talking with Alyssa's parents before nodding."Did you have a crush on him too?" She asked."Uh... No. My crush was with someone else." I replied."Anyway, congratulations. I'm sorry for bothering you guys. I didn't know any better.""It's okay. I'm glad we have it all sorted out." I replied."Have a nice trip back." She said and walked away. Patrick came to join me soon after."What were you guys talking about?" He asked."Nothing. She just wished us farewell.""Well th

Patrick's POV"Hello? Hello!?" I whispered furiously into the phone, but I heard no reply. What's going on? Why did Sylvia is sound like that?Hurrying out of my class, I made my way out of school when I accidentally bumped into someone. "Sorry..." I mumbled and continued my way, but the person's voice stopped me."Hey? Why the rush?" Alex called after me. I stopped only for a second. "Can you just let me go?" I asked, rushing out. He followed me."What's going on?""I don't know. That's what am about to find out. So if you'll excuse me, there's someone I need to get to." I stated and dashed out of school.***Alex's POVI stared at Patrick's retreating figure, confused. What the hell is going on? Shrugging, I headed to class and sat down, looking around. That's when it hit me. Sylvia isn't around, so is Tasha. And Patrick just ran out of school. I don't know what happened, but whatever it is, I'm having a feeling it's not good. I also excused myself and left the school, going afte

Alex's POV"What... What did you say?" I repeated, unsure of what I heard the first time. My mom nodded apologetically. "I just heard the news." She replied, her voice shaking." I'm sorry. " I let go of Hazel, bowling my hands to fists, fighting the overwhelming urge to hit something. No, this can't be true. It can't happen now. Why now! Tears brimmed in her eyes and eventually spilled out, with me breaking down in sobs. I didn't think I'd feel this much pain, but right I know I felt like my heart has been ripped in half. It was too excruciating. My mom wrapped her hands around me, hugging me tightly while I sobbed on her shoulders. "I'm sorry..." she kept saying, patting the back of my head.I closed my eyes tightly, shaking like a little kid as I sobbed out.***Patrick's POVStaring at Sylvia's unconscious face, I kept holding her hands, letting mine wander around her face in a soft gentle caress. She was yet to wake up, although the doctor said that might happen soon. After a w

Chapter 40
Sylvia's POV (few weeks later)Sylvia! Come on downstairs, Patrick's waiting for you! " My mum called out from the kitchen. "Coming, mom! " I replied, and I quickly brushed out my hair. Patrick is such a jerk! Why didn't he tell me he would be taking me out today? It would have been done much faster.Picking up a sweater in case the weather got cold like it's been doing lately, I dashed down the stairs, giving my mum a quick kiss."Bye, mom. I'll see you later." I chirped out before flying out the door. Outside, I met a smirking Patrick who seemed to be enjoying the stunt he pulled. I hurried towards him and slugged him on the arm."Ow... That hurts." He groaned out before grinning. " Good morning Miss. " He greeted."Good morning to you, too." I replied, half frowning."Are you ready?" He asked. I threw a glance at him."Seriously!?" "Sorry... Come on let's go!" Opening the door for me to enter, he went around the car and walked in himself. I waited for him to enter, then smiled u
