Instead of going to my room where we've both been sleeping since the night she thought she saw Cade, I spot her disappear into her own once again.

"I'll grab my stuff and join you in here then?" I ask from the doorway.

"Whatever." Her voice is weak. She sounds exhausted and utterly defeated.

"Okay, I'll just be a minute."

I take off with the intention of grabbing my books and laptop and getting some work done. The last thing we need in all of this is to fall behind, but the second I step inside my room, a chill runs down my spine.

My window is open. I know for a fact I never left it that way.

My heart rate picks up, a weird feeling racing through me.

He was here.

Taking two more steps into the room, I get a look at my bed and my world falls out from beneath me.

The bloody knife that I saw in Mia's bathroom before we went for dinner is sitting on my bed, with her Electi pendant that she hasn’t worn since the moment she woke up in the hospital sitting beside it.

Along with a piece of paper.

I'm coming.

Backing away, my entire body trembles.

He's here.

He really has been here.

Spinning on my heels, I run from my room and crash through Mia's door.She's sitting in the middle of her bed with books around her.

"What's wrong?" she asks when she looks up.

"Pack a bag," I demand, my voice not sounding like my own.

"W-what?"

"Pack a bag. Grab whatever you can. We're leaving."

"Have you lost your—"

"Pack a fucking bag, Mia. Do it right now."

I run from the room and shout for the guys, who immediately race up with stairs.Sasha goes to help Mia as I send Brandon and Alex to the security room to see if there’s anything, and I take Channing with me to my room.

"What the fuck?" he barks the second he sees what's on my bed.

"I think she's been right this whole time."

"The bang?" he asks.

“I never leave my window open, and that knife was on her bathroom floor before I came down for dinner.”

"Why was that—"

I shake my head at him, cutting off his question. That's not important right now.

Ripping my closet doors open, I pull down a duffle bag and start stuffing things inside.
