1 MONTH LATER

Jade sat with Colin, resting her head on his shoulder during their English class. Jade turned Colin's head to hers and kissed him. Colin kissed back. Jade pulled away, smiling softly.

"Wh-what was that for?" Colin questioned, fiddling with his rosary.

"Just cause." Jade tapped his nose, exiting their class.

Colin hurriedly got his stuff, following after Jade. Jade held his hand as they found Needy and Jennifer. Jade gasped, covering her mouth. Jennifer looked like roadkill.

"Hello, Needy. Jennifer." Colin greeted, wrapping his arm securely around Jade's waist.

Jade smirked to herself, biting her lip. Colin kissed her shoulder.

"Hi, Colin. Can I borrow your English homework again? I forgot to read Hamlet. Is he gonna fuck his mom?" Jennifer questioned Colin, looking directly at him.

Jade rolled her eyes. Jesus, she was going to get Colin in trouble.

"Then say you forgot to read Hamlet." Jade snapped, bitterly.

Jade turned Colin's head to her then kissed him. Colin kissed back, holding her close.

"Bye, Jennifer." Jade blew her a fake kiss, taking Colin with her.

Colin followed after "Th-thank y-you."

Jade entered an abandoned classroom, biting her lip. Colin sat at one of the desks.

"I'm not losing you, I told you I wanted to protect you and I am." Jade straddled his waist, wrapping her arms around his neck.

Colin bit his lip, nervously looking up at her. Jade kissed him, softtly. Colin kissed back. Thank God she saved him.

"J-jade?" Colin questioned, rubbing her hips.

Jade tilted her head "What's up?"

Colin admired her. Jade made his heart flutter every time they were together. He didn't know what she saw in him.

"How did I get so lucky to date you?" Colin inquired, holding her hips.

Jade made a thinking face. Colin blushed. He was genuinely curious.

"I think the question is how did I get so lucky to date you, Colin Gray?" Jade moved a strand of her hair behind her ear, biting her lip.

Colin chuckled a bit "W-well, have you seen yourself? And your presence is soothing."

Jade giggled, burying her face in his neck, placing delicate kisses on it.

"My presence is soothing, you're adorable, Col." Jade kept giggling, sitting up to look at him.

Colin kissed the tip of her nose "What are you doing tonight?"

"You, maybe." Jade winked, looking at him.

Colin's eyes widened "I-i...w-well...I-i..."

Jade got off his waist, holding out her hands. Colin stood up, taking her hands.

"My house tonight?" Jade questioned, wiggling her brows.

Colin cleared his throat, nodding.

"Y-yeah..." Colin coughed, fiddling with his scarf.

"Great, see you then." Jade winked, leaving Colin alone in the classroom.

COLIN LAID DOWN With Jade on her bed as they watched Prom Night. Jade grabbed her notebook, taking notes on the movie.

"What are you doing, Silly Goose?" Colin questioned, resting his head in Jade's lap.

Jade chuckled "You remember that scene in Scream when the film geek was saying if you watch Prom Night it saves time, everybody's a suspect? And then Stu said, watch a few movies, take a few notes?"

Colin nodded, biting his lip.

"Maybe this could help kill Jennifer or at least save her." Jade frowned, clicking her pen nervously.

Colin laid down, pulling Jade over to him, rubbing her back. Jade put her stuff down, resting her head on Colin's chest.

"I-i'm proud of you, okay? Even if I had gone on that date with Jennifer, I know you would've been there to save me." Colin kissed her forehead, gently.

Jade closed her eyes, biting her lip "I love you, Colin Gray. So much."

"I love you, too. Get some sleep." Colin rubbed her back, closing his eyes.

Jade held onto Colin as she fell asleep soon after.
