Hailee's POV
"Hailee!"
Callum rushed over and caught me before I could fall all the way down. I dropped to my knees anyway, my hands shaking. His face was pale, his eyes wide with worry and fear.
"I didn't know someone was watching," I whispered. "Callum… this is bad. What if they post it? What if people see everything?"
He knelt next to me and held my shoulders gently.
"We'll fix it," he said. "I promise. I'll protect you."
I wanted to believe him. But deep down, I was scared too. Because we didn't know who saw us… or why they were recording. And that made everything worse.
I forced myself to my feet, brushing off my knees, even though I was still shaking. "I need to go home," I said quickly, my words tumbling out in a rush.
Callum nodded. "Let me take you home," he suggested, but I frantically shook my head.
"I'd like to go on my own, please," I said.
