I barely overheard a little bit of what the boys were saying as I pretended to be interested in something in the gardens beyond the basketball court, after I'd heard what Jace's dad had said to him about that phone call.They hadn't even noticed me thank heavens or they would've noticed my reaction. So she was still alive, and now awake, that sucked. I was hoping she'd die, even after she'd been found, but it looks like she'd escaped once again.I was a nervous wreck the rest of the afternoon while the others laughed and played around me. Sian kept studying me though, so I had to put on my smiley face as I bided my time and counted down the hours 'til I could respectfully leave. I needed to go home and think in the confines of my room.Both of my parents had been acting strange this morning at breakfast, strange meaning they were almost back to normal, at least that was something. But now with her still in the picture instead of six feet under, who knows how long that will last?"C
"Hey, what have you found out?""Listen we're having second thoughts about letting you do this, we were in the middle of something very important; this high school drama isn't worth it.""First of all you're not letting me do shit. I don't know how many times I have to tell you this shit, you don't own me so don't believe your own fucking hype.""Son…""Nuh-uh dad, later for that." I turned back to the phone. "Now what did you find out? The sooner you get me what I want, the sooner we can get back to your deal, but I'm not leaving here until my boy is cool.""I don't see what the big deal is, his name hasn't even been called.""You don't worry about that shit, do the cops have any leads or not?""So far it doesn't look like it. So what now?""Now we wait and see.""For how long?""As long as it takes.""Kevin…""There's no discussion here, I'm still pissed that I had to find this shit out the way I did.""This is why there's no communication with the outside when you're wo
It feels like we'd barely got settled in here, before all hell broke loose. I didn't even really have my bearings as yet, so to speak. There was too much going on too fast, and that was before my sister got herself almost killed and the girl I suspected of having something to do with it ended up in the hospital.I was just starting to relax my guard a little, testing my feet in unchartered waters, and now this. I looked down at the phone in my hand.If I make this call it's gonna change a lot of things, so I had to be sure. The reason for my hesitance was so dumb though, but still I had to be sure.Back in my last school it had been harder, but here in a new place with no past judgments to live down, it felt like it was okay.That's what was bothering me though; the fact that I even had to think like that. I should be able to love who I want to love without having to worry about living down a stigma. And I shouldn't be such a prick that I'd let it stop me before.But to be fair sh
"I think I should do it." I'd just told Sian about Mandy and what they wanted me to do. I'd given it some more thought and I couldn't see any other way. She hadn't said one word the whole time I was speaking, and I couldn't tell from her face what she was thinking."You want to do it?""Hell no I don't want to do it, but it might be the only way to get to the truth about what happened to you that night.""Why don't you let the cops do their job? I have all confidence that they'd get to the bottom of it in time. If this is an excuse for you to go sniffing around your ex well you can just…fuck off Jace Saunders."What the fuck? She flew off the bed and headed for the bathroom but I flew off the other side and stopped her. "Where the fuck are you going?""Home, and you can have this back you ass." She tried taking off my ring and giving it to me."Have you lost your fucking mind Si?" What the fuck just happened here? One minute we were having a conversation and the next it was world war
"Jace, what's gotten into you?""What's gotten into me, I'll tell you what's gotten into me. You don't say shit like that to a guy like me, it'll get your ass hurt. Now who the fuck did you have in your head?"I had her bent over the bed with my hand buried in her hair as I fought with the zipper of her jeans. I pulled them down far enough to tear her panties in half and drop them on the floor before moving into her."Who?" I slammed into her as I pulled her hair back hard and she screamed. I was careful not to hurt her back, but that ass was mine.I didn't hold back when I slid out of her and went back in hard as fuck; neither did I loosen my grip on her hair. "Say sorry, tell me you're fucking sorry for saying that shit to me." I fucked her as hard as a dick was able to, hitting her ovaries with my shit.She fucking shook her head and pushed back against me while spreading her legs wider and cocking her ass higher in the air."No." Spoilt ass thinks she's bad, we'll see about that sh
"Is your dad gone again baby?" Her dad was one of those who thought that as long as he provided his daughter with every luxury known to man that it would compensate for his absence.She didn't have a mom and was an only child. She's been my baby since we were fourteen and will be for life if I had anything to say about it and I have plenty.She's the only thing I would die for, Jace comes a close second because he's fucking excellent people, but this baby girl, fuck it kills me to be away from her ass. "Yeah, he left yesterday morning." She always tries to hide the hurt from her man but there's no hiding from me, I know every little thing about her.I know how abandoned she feels, and that no matter what we mean to each other, I can never take his place. If he doesn't get his shit together soon, I'm gonna have to do something about his dumb ass. It was I who had made sure that the security on the place was up to par, me who stayed in her bed more than I did mine, which my mother hate
I had to take her home Sunday night so she could get ready for school the next day. I wasn't happy about that shit, but her dad was adamant that she come home. It was hard sometimes to remember that we were kids in our parents' eyes and still had to obey their rules.I respected him for his stand though, even though I hated like fuck to part with her that night. But it was nice to know that he cared like that.She wasn't much better when it was time for me to leave her. Her clinging shit was only making me feel like an asshole for abandoning her."Babe, I'll call you as soon as I get in the house, we'll talk until you fall asleep and before you know it I'll be back here to pick you up for school."She held on tighter, her little fists grabbing onto the back of my shirt. This fucking girl! "Sian, you're not making this any easier.""I don't want you to go." I wrapped my arms more securely around her and buried my face in her neck. I wonder how pissed her dad would be if I took her back
I didn't know it was going to be this hard taking her back to school the first day. There was a combination of shit going on in my head. First, I didn't know who, or if, one of these fuckers had been the one to attack her on Mandy's command, and two, I didn't want her out of my fucking sight, ever.I hoofed it to her class after each of mine to walk her to the next no matter that she had her girls, and now Val, at her back.Track was acting strange as fuck but what's new? I was too focused on her to pay too much attention to his crazy, besides he'd tell me whatever the fuck was bothering him when he was good and ready.Lunch came and I was finally able to breathe. I think I had PTSD or some shit, because I freaked whenever anyone got too near her, like what the fuck?"Jace, some shit's about to go down...." I'd barely lifted my head at Track's weird statement when I saw the two cops that were working her case walk in.I held her hand tighter, not sure why the fuck they were here, but t
