Kassidy POV

"Kassidy.." I heard Killian's voice I groaned and rolled over and snuggled into the couch trying to ignore it. I didn't want to wake up yet.

"Kassidy, Wake up." Killian said and nudged me.

"No." I said. "I want to sleep."

"Its 6 in the morning." Killian said. My eyes shot open and I raised my head up and blew my hair out of my face.

"Come again?" I asked.

"Its 6 in the morning, your father keeps calling you. We fell asleep!"

"Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck!!" I shouted and pulled myself off the couch. "I am so dead." I grabbed my jacket that I threw on the floor last night and put it on and ran out the door.

You can't just run out the door without saying anything! I ran back in the house and threw myself at him hugging him enjoying his tight embrace for possibly the last time before my father killed me. He tilted my chin up and placed his lips on mine.

Can I just stay here forever?

Killian pulled away. "You have to go." He said.

I pouted at him. "Can we just fake my death and move to Mexico?" I asked. He smirked and started pushing me out the door. "Go, maybe if you get home soon he wont kill you." He said.

"Okay, I will see you Monday!" I said and took off running down the street trying to think of some sort of excuse as to why I was not home.

Once I made it to my street I could see my Dad standing in the driveway. I walked the rest of the way in no hurry to meet certain death.

"Jesus Christ Kassidy! Where the hell have you been?!" Dad demanded as I walked into the driveway.

"I'm sorry, I just now saw your calls, I woke up early and decided to do a morning jog my phone was on silent."

"Do you not know how to leave a note?! I have been panicking for the past hour!" He yelled.

"Dad! I'm sorry, I just wasn't thinking. Its just since Dylan my head hasn't been all that clear." I said. He frowned.

"I'm sorry Kass but you've got to get your head in the game. Partying, pacing the house all night, slipping out in the morning without letting me know, its got to stop!" He said

"I don't know what you want me to do Dad! I can't sleep without having nightmares!"

"Maybe its time to go back on the meds?" He asked.

I narrowed my eyes. "Out of the question." I said and stormed into the house.

"Kass they really helped you!" He said following me into the house.

"No, they helped you! because you couldn't deal with my grief and yours when mom died, so you fed me medicine that turned me into an unfeeling zombie!"

"Kassidy this isn't you baby, You are angry, all the time." He said.

"If you were here more often, you would see that I'm not angry all the time. I'm only angry because you see me for 15 minutes a week and decide you fucking know me!" I shouted.

"Kassidy Monet Cole!" He shouted. I just shook my head and walked up the stairs

"Don't you walk away from me!" He snapped.

"Piss off!" I yelled back at him and walked to my room slamming my door. I slipped my shoes off and laid on my bed looking at my phone.

New message from Killian Jones

Killian:

You alive?

Me:

I don't want to talk about it...

Killian:

That bad? you okay?

Me:

No. I'm going back to bed for a little bit. Text you later..

Killian:

Okay. Sleep well, I miss you.

There was a light tapping on my door. I rolled my eyes.

"Not interested!" I yelled.

"I have to go to Work Kassi, But, I really think you should talk to someone, so..I set you up an appointment with Doctor Hopper, I hear good things about him. The appointment is for tomorrow after school..please go. Anyways I love you. I'll see you later."

"Love you too.." I said and pulled my pillow over my face and screamed into it. I hated it when we fought, but I really hated the idea of going to see some guy, to get inside my head and tell me how crazy I am. I just wanted it to be Monday, so I could go to school, with my friends and my Killian.

I tried to go back to sleep for just a litle bit, but it wasn't happening. I hated being alone in this stupid house every little noise made me jump and I really just wanted to go back to Killian's but I knew that if my Dad came home and found me gone, it would be a mess. I got out of bed and walked out of my room and down stairs to the living room and turned on the tv flipping through channels. There was nothing on I picked up my phone and decided to call Killian.

"Hey." I said.

"Hello love." He said. "I should have known you weren't going to sleep."

"Yeah.. well." I said.

"What are you doing?" He asked.

"Just chilling here." I said.

"Don't you have a test to study for?" He asked

"Nobody studies on the weekend Killian. Maybe postpone the test?"

"That would put me a week behind in lessons." Killian said.

"Okay, I'm telling you this as a student, We wont mind. I promise." I said with a laugh.

"Fine. I will postpone it for this Friday." He said.

"Not all hero's wear capes." I said. He chuckled.

"I don't know what I'm going to do with you." He said.

"Well, I could give suggestions. but they are all illegal until February." I said. The door bell rang.

"Just a sec, sometimes at the door." I said and walked to the door and opened it. There was no one there. Or anyone near the house. I looked down and there was a single yellow rose on the porch with a note. I picked up the note and the flower, I unfolded the note and read it.

See you in school.

"How did you know Yellow roses were my favorite?" I asked

"I didn't, but I do now, what do you mean?" Killian asked.

"You didn't send me a flower with a note that says see you in school?" I asked.

"No..I didn't." He said.

"Dylan..."  I said

My hands shook. I stepped outside looking around for Dylan. He had to have been out there somewhere but I couldn't see him.

"Kassidy what do you mean Dylan? Is he there?!" Killian asked. I didn't answer him immediately. I ran back inside and threw the note and the rose in the trash can.

"Kassidy answer me!" Killian shouted.

"Hes not here. But he was."

"Stay inside, Lock your doors and windows. I am coming over." Killian said and hung up. I ran around the house locking all the doors and windows panicking. Why wouldn't he just go back to New York and stay there. and what the hell did he mean he would see me in school?! I paced in the living room until Killian texted.

Killian:

I'm parked around the block. Let me in."

Me:

Go to the fence to my backyard. I'll let you in that way No one will see you.

I walked out the back door and went to the gate on the fence in my back yard and unlocked it. Killian stepped through.

"Are you okay?" He asked. I shook my head.

"Why wont he just leave me alone?" I asked.

"Come on lets go inside." He said leading me in my house. I sat down at the kitchen table, Killian picked up the flower off the counter

"What do you think he means by see you in school?" He asked.

"I think it means Hes coming to Storybrooke.." I said.

"He can't. there has to be something that can be done." Killian said.

"I can talk to my dad, and see what can be done. But we didn't press charges when he attacked me because I didn't want to see him in court and now.. I'm going to see him every day. And you.. Hes going to remember you. Hes going to know something is going on and Hes going to ruin everything." I said putting my head in my hands.

"We will figure it out. I wont let him ruin anything. And hes not going to be stupid enough to try anything to harm you in school but in the mean time, there is no way you are staying here by yourself. Go upstairs get whatever you need, you're coming back to my place. Tell your father you are going to Ruby's until he comes home." Killian said.

"Come with me." I said. I didn't feel comfortable going anywhere without him. I felt like my skin was crawling.

"Okay." He said and followed me up the stairs to my room. I threw a duffle bag on the bed and started throwing things into it while he looked around the room.

Killian POV

I looked around the room. It wasn't what I expected at all, It was extremely well kept, everything had its own place. I picked up a photo from her bookshelf, It was a picture of her and what I had to assume was her mother. The two looked just alike.

"That's my favorite picture." She said. "Its the last one we took together." She said and smiled.

"You look just like her." I said.

"Everyone says that. I have my Dads eyes though." She said and threw more clothes into the bag.

"How long do you plan on staying?" I asked with a laugh.

She smirked. "I tend to over pack. I just want to make sure I'm prepared I guess." She said.

"Whatever makes you feel comfortable." I said. "Remind me to have you organize my office." I said looking around.

"Thats..my thing lately. When I'm up at night and I feel like I have no control, I organize." She said with a laugh.

She threw a couple more things in her bag and zipped it throwing it over her shoulder.

"Are you ready?" I asked. She nodded.

"Yeah" She replied. We walked down the stairs and out the back door. She waited until we got in my car to call her Dad.

"Hey Dad. So, I got a note and a yellow rose at the door from Dylan Yeah I'm pretty sure it was him. I know I'm grounded but I'm not comfortable staying home by myself anymore. So 'm going to Ruby's until you get home and we can talk about what we need to do...I left the note on the counter so you can look at it. Just text me when you get home Yeah. Love you too." She said and hung up.

"What did he say?" I asked.

"He thinks I'm being paranoid but said if I don't feel comfortable at home alone, to go to a friends so.. Hello friend." She said and grinned.

Once at my house, Kassidy's nerves seemed to be calmed instantly. I led her down the hall to my room and started moving things around in my dresser to make room for her stuff.

"This way, if you stay over you have stuff already here." I said. She smiled.

"Already making room for my stuff." She said and sat down on the edge of the bed she looked down at the her hands.

"You okay?" I asked.

"Yeah.. No? I Don't know." She said. "I'm just scared. I mean what if he finds me here? What if he sees me with you? What if he tells someone?" She asked.

"Hes not going to, and believe me. If he comes anywhere near you Hes not going to be able to run away like he did last time."

"But you wont be able to protect me like this at school. Not without it looking weird."

"If he trys anything at school, he'll get expelled, The school has a No tolerance policy on any form of harassment. I don't know how things were in New York, but they are different here and if he bothers you outside of school, there is an entire line of people waiting to kick his ass." I said. I put my hand under her chin and tilted her head up so she was looking at me.

"And you are always safe here." I said and pressed my lips to hers and pulled away. She smiled at me

"You're amazing." She said.

"I know." I grinned.
