As the sun set on the little town a young girl of about 18 laid in bed her brown hair askew her blue eyes scanning the room one last time. Her phone buzzed. She quickly picks it up. It’s her Ex. They dated in 8th grade he was a complete jerk and a big liar. She sighed and read the text.

Then you’ll be mine, and anything that I want you to be. Your my girlfriend or this picture gets out everywhere and your reputation (what little is left) is ruined.

To: Jacob

From: Caroline

Ok ok just don’t put that out there.

To: Caroline

From: Jacob

Ok then I’m coming to your house right now. You moved out of your parents right? Of course, it was in the news. I’ll be there in 5

To: Caroline

From: Jacob

That doesn’t matter. We are living together now. We are leaving this town in the morning

To: Jacob

From: Caroline

Ok see you soon.

Caroline slumped into her bed and quickly fell asleep. She woke up with a start when she felt arms enclose around her. “Shhh go back to sleep” a hand started to pet her head softly.
