ARCHER'S POV

I love Roa so much. I have since I day I saw her. I know she'll never love me like I love her. Sometimes, I get jealous and angry. The interview we saw of her that day, still plays in my head. Her kissing Caleb. I know she inactively compares me to Caleb. I don't blame her. 

When he betrayed her, and left her, I really felt angry. How dare he?! My Roa cried herself to sleep then. I was heartbroken because I couldn't do anything about it, and she was heartbroken because he didn't save her. But one thing I had to tell her was: I'd ALWAYS save her and ALWAYS put her first. 

I don't know what I'm thinking. It could be that Roa doesn't feel the same way. But seeing her jealous, makes me blush so hard. I don't even know if she likes the nickname Roa. I've always called her 'Roa' in my head. 

I don't even know what I'm doing, but I have a feeling all this is my fault. It was my uncle who shot me. He tried to kill me. Heck, he might've succeeded. Am I going to die? I'm scared to die...

I don't want her to get hurt because of me. I could never. Why did my uncle try to kill me? He had always wanted Mateo to become the next Johnson family head, but I might've beat him to it. I don't even want to become the Johnson family head!

That wasn't reason enough to kill me. The hungry look in his eyes, right before he'd shot me, that showed me something else. He wasn't employed by the society to kill me. Right now, me and Roa weren't under the society rules. We were still under the Academy's.

I can't feel my body anymore. Am I dying...?

No... I think I'm fine. Roa won't let me die. I believe in her. I love her. I can't live without her. My head hurts. Not like a normal headache, but it's throbbing so badly. It's like I'm craving something. But I know I'm not an addict or anything so what is this? Am I supposed to be feeling this?
