Shadow POV:I menacingly walk into the dimly lit room. The only sounds that can be heard are my footsteps and the muffled screams from a local schoolboy"Welcome to my home Matt" my voice comes out deep and menacing "Where the hell am I...do you know who I am" he yells pulling at his restraints "Oh, I know very well who you are. Your mother sold you for two lines of coke at the age of 4. Your father raped you at 7 and stopped when you were 12 cause they finally caught him. You got adopted by the Mayor at the age of 13 and now you are a macho man at Lombardi High am I right" I grab a chair and sit underneath the light right in front of him. His face falls into pure horror when he sees me and I grin"Oh what ...cat's got your tongue""W- what d-do y-you want" he stutters out in fear"Nothing really I just need you to leave Amari alo-" "Done" he yells cutting me off. I grab his shoulder firmly and I bring my mouth close to his ear"Never ever cut me off or I swear it will be the last

Shadow POV: I got a call from Daniel that Amari went to that party after I specifically told her not to. Speeding to this boy Jonathan's house I grip onto the steering wheel my knuckles turning white from the amount of pressure I'm putting. Stepping on the accelerator I'm pretty sure I'm going over the speed limit but it's nothing money can't fixPulling up to the address I practically jumped out of the car not caring where I parked. Teenage girls start eyeing me but I am only here for one girl. Going toward the backyard I see the fucker leading Amari up the staircase"Are you like the police?" some big kid says and I completely lose my patience pulling out my gun I aim it at him"Whoaa uhm dude chill like I don't want no trouble" he starts backing away in fear. I guess I look out of place"Shit, your literally so hot" looking down at the girl who said that. I come face to face with a blond who happens to be Amari's friend Bella. And she's quite drunk"Nice to meet you, I'm Shadow"

Daniel POV: Walking into the facility with a bouquet of flowers I head straight toward the receptionist"Hi I'm here to visit Amari Carmichael," I say looking at the old lady with chapped lips"She's not taking any visitors at the moment," she says not paying any attention to me. Instead she's focused on whatever she’s knitting"Can you please tell her it's Daniel ...Daniel Peters" I say and the lady raises her head slightly. Rolling her eyes she picks up the phone in front of her and starts dialing a numberI could easily go down the halls and find Amari myself since I practically came here every day when she was admitted at 9. I know this place like the back of my hand but I’ll be professional since I’m here as a visitor, not an owner "Uhm we have a.... "She pauses clearly forgetting my name"Daniel Peters" I answer her with a smile "Daniel Peters here to see a patient..." she looks down at her books "- patient 007""Okay," she says into the phone before she places it back down"

Amari POV:I've been in my room for the past three days not that I can't leaveI just - Shadow honestly wants nothing to do with me at this point. So I don't want to bother him that muchDaniel on the other ha-"Knock knock," he says whilst knocking Speak of the devil"You can come in" I yell. He walks in and sits on the edge of my bed"Look Amari about what happened the other day whatever you heard I do apologize," Daniel says whilst pretending to crack his knuckles. He's been apologizing since and if I’m being quite honest I didn’t know what they were talking about but I knew it had to do with me so I stopped them from arguing "Daniel you can stop apologizing quite frankly I don't want to be here I haven't taken my meds and my insomnia has kicked in," I say clutching onto his arm way too hard causing him to wince"Sorry," I say pulling away. I really really need my meds now “Do you remember what happened last night?” Daniel asked and I looked at him puzzled “Uh no” I answer and

Amari POV :He kissed me !!!!!!!!!Ahh!! he kissed meOkay okay, I need to calm down I - just fuck!! okay, I'm calm I'm definitely calm.Touching my lips for the hundredth time today my lips spread into a cheesy smile. Every time I think of last night's kiss all I feel are butterfliesHis such a good kisser that all I want to do is kick my feet and just go back. I don't know what got over me really I guess he looked hot and those muscles in that tight-fitting shirt just make me want to... Turning over in I grab a pillow and I scream into it. I miss Bella I really need to tell her this instead of having an imaginary conversation with myselfShadow POV:Fuck that can never happen againWhat was I even thinking- exactly I wasn't thinking because I kissed a minorRunning a hand through my hair I sigh. I really need to stop whatever is happening fast because I can't. It took everything in me to not bend her over that desk and have her-Keep it together Xavier"Boss you wanted to see me,"
