Being different Quote by Jade
“I couldn't speak though. When he turned to face me his face was consorted with anger. He wiped blood off my chin. I broke. I started bawling so hard. What had I done. He sighed and pulled me into his arms. Is he ok? I choked it out through sobs. Shhh yes he is fine, are you gonna tell me what happened? I nodded and stepped back. As I sucked in breathes of air trying to calm down Stark closed his eyes. My head was pounding from crying and the alcohol. Just then the guys came outside. Their eyes darted to the guy on the ground. What happened? Stark closed his eyes and pinched the bridge of his nose. Jade... Was feeding off him. Oh Jade.. I started crying all over again. This time Heath pulled me into a hug. Its ok, it happens. Can you guys take care of this while we head back to the house? They nodded. Stark took me and carried me to the car. I didn't say a thing. Finally he broke the silence. What happened? I took a breath.”
