This chapter is dedicated to my best friend Chloe Taylor. Hope you like it.

I woke up with a yawn, sun shining through the blinds and hitting me right in the eyes.

With a hiss I covered my face with a pillow and groaned, my head felt like it was thrown against a concrete wall.

After the cop left last night kass and Jace wanted to stay up a little while, and by 'little while' they meant three hours.

I must have clonked out. After having a mental argument I decided to get up, swinging my legs over and groaning.

Pain shot through my head and I bought the palms of my hands to my temples.

I was supposed to start college today but I'm not in shape to do that at the moment.

Guess when I go Wednesday I'll ask what I missed, thank god I only have school on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays.

My feet touched the cold hardwood floor and a chill ran up my spine, goosebumps quickly forming on my arms.

Looking around I saw Jace was asleep on the floor with a cover draped over him and Shane was in an armchair, curled up in a ball with his face shoved into the quilt.

Kass must have went upstairs to sleep instead of staying in the guys conversation.

My thoughts were quickly redirected when I entered the kitchen to find a sleeping kass on the kitchen counter, a mug of coffee in her hand that went cold, the milk rising to the top.

Based on how cold it was she must have been sleeping here for two hours, she tends to wake up in the middle of the night to eat food.

Knowing her she was probably to lazy to go back upstairs so she just slept where she was.

I scoffed and rolled my eyes, opening the fridge and taking out some bacon and toaster strudels.

After setting them on the counter I scrounged around to look for pans to cook in, making loud noises as metal banged against metal.

When I finally found one I sighed in relief, gotta have my bacon in the morning.

Everything was silent through the house as I fixed the bacon, knowing it was only a matter of time before kass woke up from the smell of the sizzling food.

I hummed a tune as kass's soft breathing was still heard behind me.

The toaster strudels were next and now I just had to find the toaster, looking around I noticed something sitting on the edge of the top shelf.

Of course it was the toaster, curse you genes for giving me tiny legs.

As I tried to climb onto the counter warm hands grabbed my hips and pulled me up, setting me on their shoulders.

Squealing in suprise I looked down to see Shane's messy brown hair.

Relief washed over me, but that was short lived as he started to spin in circles, the kitchen spinning in my vision, turning into blurring colors.

Shane chuckled as I screeched, grabbing tufts of his hair to keep from falling off, my stomach churning.

When I thought it was all over he decided to sprint out the door, running around the house with me bouncing on his shoulders, laughing when he bumped into the couch.

"How do you have so much energy" I giggled as he stopped, he just smirked at me.

"Suprise attack!" I heard someone yell, snapping my head back and almost falling off Shane's shoulders in the process.

Seeing a grinning Jace run in the room, a water gun in his hand.

Shane turned around just in time to get squirted in the face.

Shane set me down as the two of them playfully shoved each other around.

If they didn't look so different you would think they were brothers.

"Bacon!!" A high pitched scream yelled from the kitchen, well kass is awake.

She walked out the kitchen, her hair in a messy bun and three pieces of bacon sticking out her mouth.

Her brown eyes widened as she saw a shirtless Jace and grungy looking shane shoving each other.

"Close your mouth or you'll catch flies" I laughed, seeing kass eyeballing Jace.

"Well they'll taste better than your bacon" she hissed, flipping me off.

We looked at each other before bursting into laughter.

The guys stopped bickering and decided to go in the kitchen to eat the bacon I fixed.

Little did we know our day was about to get ruined by a single phone call.

The phone rang in the living room, Shane got up to pick it up as the rest of us chatted about last night.

All of a sudden we could hear Shane yelling, "Leave me alone you worthless piece of shit!" he yelled, the hate dripping from his tone.

The sound of something hitting the wall and heavy footsteps were heard before an angry Shane walked in the kitchen.

Mumbling to himself, "Jace, can we go to the club tonight" Shane growled, clenching his fist.

Jace gave a worried face, like he knew what was going on, "sure man, we'll take the girls along" he said, patting Shane's shoulder.

Shane nodded his head before storming out, his bedroom door slamming upstairs.

Me and kass looked at Jace, hoping to get an explanation, he ran a hand through his blond hair.

Sighing sadly, "his dad needs to stop" he groaned, pulling on his hair.

"What's wrong with his dad" I asked, hoping not to hit a nerve, he let out another sigh.

"This is the fifth time this month he's called to cuss Shane out, telling shane that if he doesn't let him stay here he's going to kick his ass, when Shane was young his dad would always beat him, telling him he won't make anything in his life, so when Shane moved out for college here his dad lost his only way of paying the bills, so now he calls all the time to threaten him, every time he calls Shane goes to the club down the road to cool off, he doesn't drink but the aura it gives off soothes him" Jace explained.

My gaze dropped to my lap, I didn't know his dad was abusive.

Silence filled the room, everyone not wanting to say anything.

I got up, having the nagging need to go talk to him.

As I walled up the steps the sound of black veil brides blaring met my ears, he must be really upset about this.

My hand hovered over the knob, hesitant on if I should go in or not.

The feeling in my gut was telling me to but my mind was screaming 'NO'.

Deciding on going with my gut I turned the knob, peeking in the room, Shane was sitting on his bed, his face in his hands.

My heart dropped, he looked so sad.

"H-hey" I stuttered, walking in the room as I closed the door behind me, he looked up.

"What are you doing in here molly" he asked, the question kind of stung a bit.

I sat on the bed beside him, the mattress dipping down.

His gaze landed on my eyes, seeming like he was trying to figure something out.

Gray met blue, both not looking away.

His gaze faltered as he looked in his lap, a tear slipping down his cheek.

My eyes widened, froze on the spot, I'd only seen a man cry once in my life and that was when my brother was born dead, my dad and me a crying mess in the hospital floor.

Without thinking I wrapped Shane in a hug, he stiffened up before hugging back, shoving his face in my shoulder, silently crying.

We sat like that for a while, not saying a word, just embracing.

He finally looked up, staring in my eyes, his blue eyes showed sadness and hurt, and another emotion I couldn't decipher.

His gaze traveled down to my lips, he brought a hand up to brush the hair out my face.

His fingertips gliding over the skin on my cheek and down my neck, my spine tingled as i felt butterflies in my stomach.

This must be what my dad told me was....love.

He would tell me their touch would send electric tingles under your skin, their gaze would give you butterflies, and no matter what you can't seem to get enough oxygen to breath.

At this moment I can't breath, his warm breath fluttering across my face, so close out noses are almost touching.

His hands on my waist sending shivers down my whole body.

His icy blue eyes staring deep in my soul, looking for anything, everything....something.

The distance between us slowly diminishing, my eyes fluttering closed.

"Molly! Tell Jace I hate toast, he won't believe me!" I heard kass yell downstairs and i jumped, headbutting Shane in the process.

He let out a groan and I whined as I rubbed my head, Shane's sad emotion replaced by embarrassment.

His face flushed bright red and he rubbed the back of his neck.

Both of us a blushing mess. I have a feeling things are going to be awkward from now on.

Looks like Shane and Molly are finally showing feelings for each other, what's with Shane's dad? BUH-BYE!!
