Chapter 17

Jasper P.O.V

I stared at Alice, gob smacked. I thought, for a brief second, that she was joking, playing around with me. But then I started to add things up. The text messages, the way she had a feeling that something was going to happen, and then it did. I looked at her, she was chewing her bottom lip again, obviously agitated by my silence,

"Jasper?" she finally asked, I took a few minutes to collect my thoughts,

"Yes?" I asked her,

"Do you believe me? You are the only person I have told, I don't want people thinking I am crazy." she seemed panicked, as if she thought I was about to run away screaming,

"I believe you, Ali," I smiled now. So this was what she had been so preoccupied about,

"Really?" she asked in a hopeful tone, I chuckled,

"Of course, Alice, the evidence backs up the theory," she finally smiled, and I realised, again, how much I love this girl. My whole world revolves around her,

"Good, but we can't tell anybody Jasper. They will definitely send me away, saying I am mental. I don't want to be like Jessica," she physically shivered, I laughed quietly,

"Alice, I won't tell anyone if you don't want me to," she smiled,

"Pinkie promise?" I grinned,

"Pinkie promise, Ali," and she twisted her tiny, pale pinkie finger around my larger one. We sat, enjoying each others presence Alice broke the silence again,

"I looked into my past," she began,

"What were you looking for?" I asked her, she looked me in the eyes,

"Well I wanted to see if maybe there were records of me having...visions...before the accident. Because I have had them since I woke up from the accident," I widened my eyes,

"The whole time I have known you, you have had these?" I asked her, she nodded,

"Yes, In fact, I saw you coming," she smiled,

"You did?"

"Yes, but of course I wasn't sure that we would get together, I just saw you coming to school," she smiled, pulling her hands through my hair,

"So I looked into my background, and what I found wasn't...nice,"

"Oh, what did you find?" I asked her,

"Well...I told you that they died in a car crash, remember?" how could I forget?

"Yes," I prompted,

"Well I looked into my past and it seems that they were driving me somewhere. The police at the scene noted that there was only one suitcase," I furrowed my brows,

"Where were they going?" I asked,

"They were taking me somewhere" Alice replied,

"Where were they taking you?"

"They were taking me to an asylum," She looked away from me, I turned her face towards me and held it in my warm hands,

"No one is sending you to an asylum, Alice. And if they try, well they would have to get through me first," she giggled,

"Thanks Jazz,"

We spent the remainder of the afternoon there enjoying each others company. It wasn't until it was about time for school to finished that we decided we should head back. We walked hand in hand to school, chatting together. It wasn't until we were almost at the school that Alice stopped. A pained look on her face,
