and I would have been able to handle that, but this …” I shake my head, shocked that she went that low to get at me, “this is a whole new low for even you. You win this round, cause you actually had me there for a moment, but baby, you better watch your back. Payback is a bitch and she’s coming for you.”
    I walk away, so damn sorry that I even tried to talk to her.

Chapter Twelve
     
    Amy~
    It feels as if the floor has just been ripped from under my feet. That whole scene about taking care of what’s yours is the biggest load of bull, and I fell for it!
    I told Noah that Brad hurt me and he didn’t believe me. I actually took a leap of faith and he threw it back in my face! I will never go to Noah for anything. I’m done with hoping there could be more than hate between us.
    I watch Noah walk back to the house and when I see Brad standing on the dock, waiting for Noah, my blood freezes. Noah is going to tell Brad and who knows what Brad’s going to do!
    With a sinking horror I watch them talk. Noah must be telling him everything I just told him! Brad looks in my direction and I don’t care what my family will think, I walk in the opposite direction. I need to get away from Brad. If Noah didn’t believe me after seeing me fall down the stairs, then no one will.
    I take a cab back to the apartment and it costs me an arm and a leg. I’ll pack everything before Noah gets home and go to a hotel for the night. I need time to think about how to protect myself, without having to tell Daddy why I can’t live with Noah. Maybe I should just move into Daddy’s apartment. By the time they find out I’ve moved in there, it will be too late to make me move again. Yes, I’ll do that!
    I pack faster than I unpacked when I moved in, and when I’m done I leave the bags by the front door. I just want to take one more look to make sure I have everything. The room I used is empty, nothing left there. I check the bathroom and then head to the kitchen. I almost forgot my favorite mug. I grab it from the cupboard and turn to leave. The front door is wide open and my bags are gone! I left them inside! I’m sure of it. I race to the front door and when I peek out, the mug falls from my hands and shatters at my feet. The air whooshes from my lungs, and it feels as if my world is shaking with shock.
    Brad grabs my arm and his fingers bite into my skin. “I warned you!” he snaps and then his eyes go dark, as if all the light has been snuffed out. “I did warn you,” he hisses, and then he throws me forward. I try to grab hold of anything and in the process my hand gets stuck between the railings. I feel a sharp pain in my wrist, burning up my arm, and then I slam into the first stair, and the pain in my wrist is replaced with a blinding pain in my head.

Chapter Thirteen
     
    Noah~
    She just left and I had to think up an excuse to tell our parents. That woman is really taking this whole thing too far!
    I take the stairs two at a time. Tonight we end this! It’s time for her to grow up. Fuck this, we’re not kids anymore! When I get to the apartment and I reach out to unlock the door, something crunches under my shoe. I glance down and see pieces of glass. The front door is unlocked, which means Amy is home! I ignore the glass and rush in, yelling. “Amy get your ass out here!”
    I go to the kitchen and grab myself a beer, I’m going to need it for the face-off with Amy. I talked to Brad and he assured me that he has never touched her. He also brought up the fact that Amy might have the hots for me, hence her weird behavior. Amy is smoking hot, I’ll admit that, but there is no way we can ever get involved. Our parents would kill us.
    When I come out of my deep thoughts, I’m already halfway done with the beer, and there’s no Amy. I stalk to her room and slam her door open. The sight that greets me, stuns me into a stupor.
    There’s nothing. She left?
    Why the fuck would she leave? I don’t understand
