Authors Note:

Hello everyone this is not another chapter for intertwined and is simply a continuation for chapter 2. Thank you for reading!

——

There was a huge bang below that startled me out of sleep, and I wasn't sure whether to investigate because in the movies, inquisitive individuals usually die while looking into strange activity. Unable to resist curiosity, I told myself that this was worth dying for. 

I was at the bottom of the stairs, hidden in the wall to see who could be making such commotion, and I was creeping and trying not to make any noise while carrying Percy's baseball bat. I was feeling lightheaded and had only just woken up, so I was unable to visualize the individual.

My heart stopped when I finally realized who it was; everything happened so quickly that I was unable to process it all and wasn't sure how to respond.

“I’m sorry for waking you up, i’m just here to take my things and go” he says

“Percy…” i replied “You’ve got some nerves coming back here, After what you did to me you dare step foot on my territory” 

He just looked at me with regret in his eyes and I couldn't even look at him.

“Your time is up.” I cry out to him “leave.” 

As I watched him head to the door, I never thought he would actually listen to me. My eyes welled with tears as I began to have flashbacks. 

“i love you, kiel.” he says 

“You’re resolved to leave with a lie on your lips.” I shouted. He gave me a sorrowful look, and I could see he felt bad about what he did, but if someone had totally betrayed my trust, I'm not the kind of person who gives people a second opportunity.

“I didn’t wanna hurt you..” he says

“You will never hurt me again.” I scowled at him defiantly “Please, just go..”

He eventually gave in and shut the door behind him. I fled to my bedroom and broke down since I was dealing with a lot of issues, I was crying uncontrollably when I heard a knock on my door. I quickly went to get some tissue to wipe away my tears since I felt ashamed, and when I opened it, Zion was there.

“Kiel, What’s wrong?” he says

“My ex-boyfriend just came in, so it's nothing”, I said, while trying to avoid eye-contact.

“Do you wanna talk about it?” he says 

I was about to answer until his phone started ringing “I’m sorry, but can I take this?” he says 

“Of course, i’ll just meet you here again” i replied

He went out of the bedroom and closed the door behind him.

Zion’s Pov:

*Unknown Caller*

“Any update, Zion?”

“Now is not the right time” zion says

“How so?”

"He has been going through a difficult time." zion replied 

“So you’ve finally gone soft?” chuckling “Wait till your father hears about this” 

*ends call*

Zion was questioning himself because all he ever wanted was his fathers honor and support and he was failing.

As he was going to return to the room his phone rang, and as he pulled it out of his pocket to see it was his father, he hesitated to respond because he knew exactly what he was going to say.

“Zion” 

“I can explain”

"Zion, you have let me down. Either you succeed or you will no longer be my son." 

He was processing and eventually his father ended the call before he even got the chance to explain. He has got to succeed if he still wanted his fathers honor.

-End of Pov-

“I wonder what zions up to” I thought to myself

“I brought you water” Zion says

I looked back to see Zion smiling with a cup of water in his right hand while walking towards me.

“Thank you” i told him while taking the water from him

“You’re Welcome” he replied while smiling 

Without hesitation i drank the water he has given me, once i finished i placed the water in the bedside table and heard Zion mutter a word

“Hm? I didn't quite catch that?” i told him

“I’m sorry” he replied

“For wh-“ before i could even finish my sentence, my head throbbed and my head spun, i was calling out to him for help but i could see him standing whilst looking at me. I soon collapsed to the floor, I could feel him carrying me to the bed and gently placing me. I could barely open my eyes but I could see that he was holding a knife and was holding it just above me, and he struck and I blacked out.

Surprisingly i woke up from what i thought was a dream, i could see Zion's back and was standing right infront of me.

“Zion..” i called out to him

He barely turned his head and was looking at me from the side of his eyes.

“I had the weirdest dream” I said to him, When I was about to stand up, I saw that he was holding a knife in his right hand, and that's where everything came flooding back, and I realized it was no dream.

“Y-you tried to kill me..” i looked at him in disbelief 

He turned his head back and was walking away from me, I felt the impulse to get up and take his hand all of a sudden. 

“Zion..” i said to him, he did not look at me nor talk he just stopped and stood “Please, don’t leave me” I didn’t know why I said that, but I did, and I didn’t regret saying it, and that’s when he turned his head towards me and looked me in the eye.

“I almost killed you, kiel” he replied “And you still have the courage to keep me from leaving; you’re safer without me being here.” He took back his hand, and left…
