Racheal and Darby were seen coming out of the tattoo shop, They got new tattoos on their arms as both of them pulled their sleeves up and showed it to each other.

Darby: Look at that, sweetheart. We're both matching.

Racheal: *Smiles* I'm so happy! Thanks for agreeing to this idea.

Darby: Anything for you, Racheal. I can never say "No" to you. Plus, it looks pretty cool.

Racheal smiled and hugged him tightly as Darby smirked and hugged her back, They broke the hug and looked at each other as Allin surprised her with a quick kiss.

Racheal blushed and giggled as Darby was smiling at her until he noticed she was still wearing his hoodie, Something that he gave her two weeks ago.

Darby: Can I get my hoodie back, sweetheart?

Racheal: No, not yet.

Darby: *Laughs* You stole three of my hoodies, and you're not giving it back.

Racheal: *Shrugs* What can I say? It's really comfy.

Darby laughed as Racheal rolled her eyes and smiled at him, The couple began walking as Allin wrapped his arm around her.

Darby: What am I going to wear at college then?

Racheal: Let me have it, Daredevil.

Darby: *Chuckles* Cute.

She glared at him as Darby hugged her while smiling at her.

Darby: Okay, fine, love. You can keep it, It's all yours.

Racheal: *Chuckles* Thank you now. Let's get back to college.

Darby: Let's just slack off for today.

Racheal: No, We got exams to deal with, Darby. No slacking off.

Darby rolled his eyes but knew she was correct, Racheal kissed his cheek as she looked at the tattoo on her arm again. Darby smiled and pinched her cheek as both of them continued walking, Racheal heard a notification on her phone as she thought it was Benjamin or Disha, but instead, she had a message from an unknown number.

Unknown: [We're watching you, Racheal]

[ How's that useless college degree working out for you? Hopefully, one day, you will be out of that college]

Racheal closed her phone and clenched it tightly as Darby noticed how she looked, He looked a bit worried as he spoke to her.

Darby: Hey, are you alright?

Racheal: Yeah. . . Yeah, I'm fine.

She gave a fake smile, but Darby knew something was up.

Darby: You seem worried, Who messaged you?

Racheal sighed and felt bad for ruining this sweet moment between them, She opened her phone and showed the message to him. Racheal and Darby already had a hunch to who the unknown person was. . .

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Anne was seen in her office as she was looking at the time schedule. However, she was unable to focus and felt unsafe, alone in her office. She kept looking around as she whispered to herself.

Anne: Calm down, Anne. . . Just calm down. . . He won't come back.

She began thinking about why she got in this situation, and she felt bad that Cillian was involved in it. She just hoped that Polter would finally stop stalking her, and she hoped the police would finally arrest him.

However, She felt even more uncomfortable, It's like. . . Someone was watching her. Anne immediately looked around as she sighed heavily, felt like she was going to cry.

Anne: Will, Please stop following me!. . .

She knew he was here, Maybe he was hiding somewhere. Anne began sobbing and buried her head on the table.

Anne: Will, I know you're here with me-

Suddenly, she heard a sound as Anne froze and felt her heart drop and felt something pressed on her head.

She slowly turned around and saw Will staring at her while aiming the pistol, Anne's eyes widened as he spoke darkly

Will: You're coming with me.

Anne tried to scream, but he immediately covered her mouth, Anne grabbed a pen and tried to stab him, but Will pushed her away as she fell off the chair.

Will aimed the pistol towards her leg and planned to shoot her, Just so she wouldn't run away, Anne screamed and told him not to shoot, Until someone barged into the room as they saw who it was.

Anne's eyes widened, and she recognised him, It was Dexter Morgan, Her ex boyfriend from high school, They had a healthy and long relationship, However due to some differences and troubles, They ended their relationship on good terms.

Dexter looked at Will as Polter aimed his gun at him but Dexter immediately charged at him, taking the gun away and began punching him, Anne was shocked as she stood up and fixed her hair.

Dexter: *Punches Will and Smiles* Hey Anne, Remember me?

Anne was silent and just nodded as Dexter continued punching his face, Polter tried to fight back but Morgan grabbed him and tossed him over to the table.

Dexter: You still look beautiful as always.

Anne cracked a smile as Dexter locked both of Will's arms as Polter began yelling and rambling at him.

Dexter: Shut up.

He smacked his head on the table as Will was unconscious, Dexter had a smile on his face as the other teachers, including security, ran inside the room, The guards grabbed Will and escorted him out of the building as Dexter fixed his shirt and looked at Anne.

The teachers were checking up on Anne as Winters said she was fine, She looked over to Dexter again before walking towards him.

Anne: Dexter. . . What are you doing here?

Dexter: *Smiles* Well, I'm the new psychology teacher.

Anne: Really?

She was stunned as he nodded and continued staring at her.

Dexter: Yeah, I'll tell you more later. First of all, Are you okay?

Anne took a deep breath and nodded.

Anne: Yeah. . . I'm fine. . . That guy is a huge trouble. . I just hope he's gone.

He frowned and noticed how stressed out she seemed, Dexter placed a hand on her shoulder as Anne was feeling a little relieved.

Maybe Will isn't gonna come back for her now.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Benjamin was watching Anne and Will as he quickly walked away, He peeked over to the corner and the guards dragging an unconscious Will out of the school, Benjamin placed two and two together and figured something out.

( So. . . This is the guy who was after Miss Winters. . .Seems like it)

He frowned and felt bad for his teacher, but Benjamin was glad that Will was finally arrested. However, he wanted to know more about what was going on,

"Who is he?"

"Why was he trying to hurt Anne?"

"And who was Anne with that night?"

Those thoughts were in his head as He quickly walked away, Benjamin looked over to Anne's office again before fixing his glasses until he saw the principal walking past him, Benjamin looked at him until someone spoke to him.

Disha: Hey, Benji. Did you see what happened?

Benjamin: Yeah, I'm honestly shocked. I'm surprised nobody knew what was going on at the office.

Disha: It's good that the new guy saved Miss Winters. Who was he anyway?

Benjamin: Ummm. . . You're gonna call me a Stalker but I heard he's the psychology teacher.

Disha raised an eyebrow as Benjamin bit his tongue as Patani smiled at him.

Disha: Yeah, you definitely play detective.

Benjamin: Shhh, someone might hear that!

Disha: *Laughs* Calm down, No one is here right now.

He took a deep breath as she giggled and smiled at him.

Benjamin: I get it, but anyone could be watching us.

He pulled her close as Disha had a smile on her face.

Disha: This is what I want them to watch~

Benjamin: *Chuckles* Disha, you're adorable but naughty as well.

She shrugged and winked at him as Ben kissed her cheek.

Benjamin: Anyways, I gotta go right now. See you after class.

Disha: Bye, love you.

Soon, After class, Benjamin was seen talking to his Commissioner about what happened.

Arnold: *On Call* We got the intruder that attacked one of your teachers at the college.

Benjamin: *On Call* Yup, I saw everything. Have you gotten any details about that guy?

Arnold: His name is Will Poulter, And it seems like he's Anne's ex-husband. . . . Or probably he's just some guy that is obsessed with her.

Benjamin: Will Poulter. . . Any more details?

Arnold: He's thrity seveb, And he's unemployed. I heard he used to work at bank called "Loans and Savings"

Benjamin: Okay, thanks.

He immediately hung up the phone and began searching for information about Will.

Soon, He found some info about him on the bank's employees' website.

Benjamin: Okay, "Will Poulter has been fired due to violent behaviour towards our employees, He also used harsh language and threatened to kill them. We are currently looking for another Bank Teller"

Benjamin was surprised by this info as he read more about him.

Benjamin: "Martial Status, Divorced" Hmm, Must be Miss Winters. . . Oh wait, He was married twice?

Benjamin shook his head and continued thinking until he got all the info he needed, Soon he decided to search his name up in a criminal database.

After business class was over, Samara didn't even realise that class was over, She shaked her head and watched the students leave. She sighed to herself and looked over to her bag.

After what happened between Logan and Alexa at the weekend, She was angry, hurt, and betrayed. Her crush was sleeping right next to her best friend. . . That broke her heart completely, She trusted both of them so much.

Samara also completely avoided both of them, Even though Alexa was her roommate, she hadn't even spoken or looked at her once.

Samara was about to get up until she heard someone's voice, and it was her classmate that hadn't left the classroom yet.

Her name is Sabrina Carpenter, Her and Samara know each other but they don't talk very much.

Sabrina: Hey, Sam.

Samara: Oh hey, Sabi. What's up?

Sabrina: Nothing much, Noticed you were spaced out during the whole lecture, Is everything alright?

Samara was silent for a moment before she nodded.

Samara: Yeah, I'm fine. Don't worry about me

Sabrina wasn't fully convinced, but she didn't want to push things further, She knew Samara was thinking about something.

Sabrina: Okay, I'm just asking. I thought you would usually be with Alexa right now.

Her name made Samara's blood boil, but she managed to cool herself down.

Samara: Yeah. . . Well, She's busy.

She spoke coldly as Sabrina continued looking at her. Finally, Samara looked at her and gave a smile, hiding her anger and sadness.

Samara: Wanna hang out sometime later?

Sabrina was surprised since Weaving never really asked her to hang out. However, she smiled and nodded, wanting to know more about her.

Sabrina: Sure, maybe at your dorm?

Samara: Actually, how about your place?

Sabrina smiled and nodded as both of them spoke to each other before leaving the classroom as Samara was making her way to the bathroom.

Soon, She was seen washing her hands as she looked at herself in the mirror, Suddenly someone entered the bathroom and it was Alexa.

Alexa: Samara-

Samara stared at her as Alexa looked at her with a mixture of sadness, regret, and shame. Weaving tried to walk away from her, but Alexa stopped her.

Alexa: Please. . . Can we talk?

Samara: I don't know who you are.

Alexa felt her heart break, but she understood Samara's anger towards her.

Alexa: I'm sorry, I was dumb! I didn't know what I was doing-

Samara: You knew exactly what you were doing! And now you expect me to forgive you!?. . . Just leave me alone.

Samara felt like crying as she quickly walked away from her, Alexa began to tear up and felt bad for what happened.

As soon as Samara left the bathroom, She noticed someone was waiting for her. . . And that was Logan himself.

There was a moment of silence, And there was tension between the two. Samara noticed something she never expected to see from Logan, He seemed. . . Weak.

Logan: Samara. . .

A part of her wanted to speak to him, But then she began remembering what happened.

Samara: Stay away from me, And tell your "Girlfriend" to stop bothering me.

Logan: You can't keep avoiding me.

Samara: And you can't keep chasing me!

Logan sighed and looked at the ground, Samara began tearing up again as she quickly wiped her tears, Logan felt hurt seeing her cry, He didn't like this at all.

Logan: I never realised this was going to hurt you. . .

Samara: You should've knew.

She wiped her tears and walked away, Logan tried to stop her but he didn't want to cause a scene right now. He sighed heavily and felt hurt, realising how much this hurted her and himself.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Meanwhile, Chris was seen at his dorm, preparing his books for robotics class as He fixed his hair. He turned around and looked at two women, and it was Mandy Rose and Tiffany Stratton.

Tiffany: Hey Chrissy, Thanks for the night.

Mandy: *Stretches out* That was some good stress relief.

Chris: You two should get going now, I have to prepare for the exams.

Tiffany: Sure thing, Call whenever you need it, Handsome~

Mandy: Same here, I would love to have another piece of you~

They both walked towards him and kissed his cheek before leaving his dorm as Chris shaked his head and left the dorm as well.

Chris was walking while thinking about something until another woman walked past him while smirking at him.

Madelyn Cline: Hey handsome, Want another stress relief tonight~?

Chris: Not yet, Madelyn.

Madelyn: Aww, come on, It's been awhile.

Chris: I don't plan on it, Darling. I also need to focus on something.

Madelyn: *Smirks* You're so hot that my zipper is falling for you.

Chris couldn't help but chuckle at that joke as he shook his head.

Chris: Maybe later, I'll see you around.

Madelyn: *Winks* Call me later.

Chris walked away as Madelyn continued checking him out before walking away, Chris was looking through his phone until someone grabbed his arm and dragged him inside an empty classroom, Johnson was confused as the door was shut and he saw who it was.

Chris's eyes widened as he looked angry.

Chris: What do you want from me, Florence!?

Florence didn't say a word and glared at him until. . .

Chris looked at her with anger while holding his cheek as she spoke to him.

Florence: You're sleeping around with other woman!? You cheater. . .

Chris looked at her before he let out a bitter laugh as Florence narrowed her.

Chris: Cheater!? It's not like I was away from my lover, so I decided to spare some time and date someone.

Florence: Stop it. . . I left him.

Chris: Oh, that's good, At least he will find someone who is loyal and loving.

Florence: Chris, I said I'm sorry. I left him! I realised I never loved Daniel! I loved you. . .

Chris clenched his fist and glared at her.

Chris: If you really loved me. . . You wouldn't have cheated. Now back off.

He tried to walk away, but Florence grabbed his arm, pulling him for a kiss, but Chris broke the kiss and moved away.

Chris: Get off of me!

Florence: Don't you dare sleep around with other woman!

Chris: And why should you stop me? I have an idea, How about you go and spend a night with the whole football team?

Florence's eyes widen in shock as Chris leaves the room, shutting the door hard. Florence looked at the ground and clenched his fist tightly.

She left the classroom and began looking for Chris until she saw him talking to Aliyah as Florence looked angry and walked away.

A/N: Thank you so much for reading and stay strong!!! :)
