Quinn POV

"It's late, we can discuss this in the morning for now let's just go to bed." Jerome replied.

"Jerome I already told you, I am not sleeping in the same bed as you."

"There is nothing wrong with sharing a bed, it's the other activity that shouldn't be done until after marriage. Though some guys like to pressure girls into doing said activity."

"There are even some guys who don't accept the word no, and would force a woman to do what they want. I can assure you however, that I am not that kind of guy. The question you must ask yourself Quinn, is do you trust me?"

"I think so?" I replied timidly.

"Then let's go to sleep."

"Alright, but we are going to have a serious conversation in the morning." I replied crawling into the bed opposite Jerome before I could protest I felt his strong arms pull in me into his chest.

"Shhh. Just sleep dollface." He whispered to me and despite my attempts to remain awake a few minutes later I was fast asleep. The dream started out wonderful. I dreamt of when we were all kids. Jerome, Jeremiah, Bella and I were all playing hide and seek at the circus we grew up in. We all seemed so happy.

Suddenly, the dream changed I watched as Bella was torn from our grasp and thrown over a large man's shoulders. Bella screamed reaching toward us but there was nothing that we could do. We were frozen to our spots. Then I dreamt of the night that Jeremiah kissed me. "I want to tell you something.."

"Can't it wait till morning?"

"No. I need to tell you this now."

"What is it?" I groaned.

"First you have to promise me that you won't tell Jerome anything about what I'm going to tell you. It would make him furious and I can't loose you to him, I won't." Jeremiah replied.

"What is it Miah?"

"It's obvious that Jerome likes you a lot. I mean he like you, likes you. If he were to ever learn about this conversation, it would enrage him and after what he did yesterday, I'm afraid of what he might do if he ever found out I told you this."

"Told me what?"

"Maybe it would be easier if I just showed you instead." With at Jeremiah leaned in and kissed me on the lips. My eyes went wide in surprise and I pulled away from him. "I am so sorry Quinn, I should have asked first."

It was then that I spotted Jerome off in the distance. Had he seen what had happened? I glanced back towards where I had seen him but he'd disappeared.

"It's fine. Now could you please tell me what's so important?"

"I care about you Quinn. In fact, I love you and not in a sisterly way. This is going to seem confusing but I had to let you know the truth. I'm sorry Quinn, I've got to go..." What had he meant he didn't want Jerome to take me away from him? Oh well. I guess I could ask him tomorrow.

Unfortunately, Jeremiah left and jo one would say where he had gone or why he had left except that Jerome had tried to kill him multiple times. Which seemed odd to me. The dream changed to a few days later I stood by frozen in my spot as Lila beat Jerome.

"You horrible good for nothing little brat! I hate you! It's because of you that I lost my precious Jeremiah!" Lila venomously spat Jerome who didn't even seem hurt by her words.
