I sat back inside enjoying our victory when.
"JAY! LOOKOUT!"
_ _ _ _ __ _ _ _ _ _
Everything happened so fast. Police cars started appearing out of nowhere trying to surround Jay as he tried his best to dodge them. I held onto the seatbelt that was warped around me for my dear life.
I glanced through the side mirror to see police cars trying to surround Jake but miserably failed as he dodged them.
I was really confused as I glanced at Jay, who seemed calm the entire time. “Jay, what the hell just happened?” I asked as we were free from the police cars, “Those were the cops, sweetheart,” he replied as I rolled my eyes, “Uh, I kind of figured that part out myself,” I said as he chuckled softly, “Why were they chasing after us?” I asked as he shrugged, “Because, we’re breaking the law, Ashley,” he simply replied as I sat confused before my eyes widened.
“You mean, this is illegal? I asked in disbelief as he just nods, “Yup, this really is your first time, huh?” He asked as I slammed my back against the car seat, “What have I gotten myself into,” I mumbled, before sighing heavily, “Relax, ma, at least we won, you’re kinda like my lucky charm,” he said as I couldn’t help but smile.
“Yeah, it really was fun,” I admitted, as Jay cheered causing me to laugh, “See, I told you, how about we go celebrate?” He suggested as I glance at him with a hesitant look, “I think that’s a good idea, I’m not even supposed to be here,” I said as he started to whine, “Come on, Ashley, I promise you won’t regret,” he pleaded as I sighed, “Fine!” I said as he cheered before changing direction.

"SO what's your deal with Jake?" I asked as we both sat down eating at a fast-food restaurant Jay was familiar with, "What about him?" He asked as I shrugged while munching down on some fries, "I don't know, you seem to enjoy pissing him off," I replied as he chuckled, "Everything is just fun and games, and the fact that he takes everything seriously is fun," he said as I rolled my eyes followed by a giggle.
"But what about you?" He asked as I furrowed while sipping my drink, "What about me?" I asked as he leaned forward, propping his elbows on the table, "You don't look like the type of girl to be around places like the racing grounds and besides, I've never seen you around," she said as I pointed one of my fries at him, "That's because I'm not that type of girl," I replied before shrugging, "Besides, school has me busy," I said as he nodded deeply with his mouth slightly open, "Oh, so you're that type of girl," he said as I furrowed.
"Hey, what's that supposed to mean?" I asked as he laughed, "I mean, you're one of those girls, who eat, sleep, and breath books, the innocent and quiet type," he explained as I slammed my hand against the table clearly offended, "I'll have you know that I'm my own person, so don't place me in any kind of category," I said as he raised his eyebrows in amusement before smirking mischievously, "Oh... so you're really that type-
"Jay!" I warned as he laughed while raising his hands in surrender, "Chill out, I'm just playing," he said as I cracked a smile before checking my watch, "Crap!" I mumbled which Jay heard as he asked, "What's wrong?" he asked as I showed him my watch, "I didn't know it was this late, can you take me to my friend's place?" I asked as he nodded, "Sure, come on," he said while standing up from his seat, "Thanks!" I said as he shot me a sweet smile before we left.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
Thanks again Jay, tonight was fun," I said once we pulled up in front of Anna's house, "No problem, thanks for being my lucky charm," he said as I giggled, "Anything, Jay," I said before opening the door, "Hey, wait, I was meaning to ask you something," he said causing me to halt in my place before turning to face him, "I was wondering if you'd like to this again something?" He asked as I raised my eyebrow, "Come on, you know, go somewhere and chill out like tonight," he nervously said as I smiled, "Sure, Jay, I would love to, why don't you hold onto this and give me a call when you're ready," I said passing him my number before hopping out of his car.
"Goodnight, Jay, or more like goodmorning, " I said as he chuckled, "See you later, Ashely, I'll text you," he said before pulling off leaving me there smiling like an idiot.
"Ashely! Where the hell have you been, girl?" Anna unexpectedly popped up yelling, startling me, "Sh! What the hell do you think the time is?" I whisper-yelled as she placed her hands on her hips.
"Exactly, where the hell have you been during this time after the cops showed up everyone ran for their lives," she explained as I furrowed wondering what happened to Jake and Tatiana. I had totally forgotten them during my time with Jay and speaking of Jay, he seemed cool, down to earth, funny, and really good-looking. I can't wait to see him again.
I'm just hoping he's doesn't turn out to be like the guys that tried to get inside my panties or turn out to be an asshole like Jake.
"Ashely!" Anna's voice snapped me out of my thoughts as she stared at me worriedly, "I'm sorry, what were you saying?" I asked as she signed, "I was asking you, your whereabouts after the cops burst down at the racing grounds, what happened after the race started?" She asked as I smiled proudly as I rethink back to the time of the race.
"Oh, we won and it was awesome," I said as her face lit up, "Really?" She asked as I nodded, "Yup, but after the race I-
"What were you doing with him?"

Previously"Oh, that we won the race and it was awesome," I said as I watched her lit up causing me to giggle, "Really, what happened after?" She asked as I smiled before continuing, "Well-"What were you doing with him?"_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _(Ashely POV)I spinned around to face a furious Jake, who stood there with his hands tucked in his pockets, and no too far behind was Tatiana, who gave me a bitchy look, "What's it to you?" I asked crossing my arms across my chest as Jake clenched his jaw, annoyed with my attitude, "Look, I'm not in the mood for your bullshit, what the hell were you doing with him?" He asked gritting through his teeth as I shrugged, "He was being a gentleman and took me out," I said as he scoffed, "Took you out, are you stupid Ashely, you don't even know him," he gritted through his teeth as his fists clenched at his sides."Why do you care, Jake, weren't we the same indi
Ashely's POV I woke up this morning still very exhausted. A couple of minutes had passed and I'm still laying in bed staring blankly at the ceiling. "ASHELY! COME DOWN FOR BREAKFAST," my mom yelled from downstairs as I sighed in annoyance, "Great! Now I gotta see the two people I hate most in this world," I mumbled while frustratedly tossing the covers off me. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ I walked into the kitchen to see the devil and his son eating their breakfast in silence not acknowledging each other's presence. "Goodmorning, honey," my mom greeted catching the attention of both men in the room, "Goodmorning, mom," I greeted back as I walked past the table completely ignoring their existences before pecking my mom's cheek before grabbing my plate that was filled with pancakes, strawberries, whipped cream, and syrup before making my way out the kitchen. "Ashely, don't be rude, aren't you forgetting something?" She asked
(Ashely's POV) After Jay and I embraced each other, we both entered his car, "Where to?" I asked with a grin on my face as I fasten my seatbelt, "Don't worry, I got the perfect place," He said before driving off, "But first, we gotta get something to eat," he said as I made myself comfortable. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ (Jay's POV) Soon, we pulled up at Aunty Jackie's fast food restaurant, but since we were just picking some food, I've just decided to use the drive-through. My car came to a stop as we waited in line. Ashely was occupied with whatever that was outside the window, while I just sat there, drowning in my own thoughts. Why was he at her house? What happened to her at home, why didn't she want to stay at home? HONK!!! I flinched out of my thoughts as the sudden sound of a horn ringed through my ea
(Jake's POV)After Ashely left with that son of a b- I couldn't stand staying at this house with those two, so I went to my car immediately remembering that I had left my keys inside."F**k!" I mumbled, running my hands through my hair, "There's no way, I'm going in there, f**k that, I need some air," I said before walking wherever my feet took me._ _ _ _ _ _ _I walked the streets with my head low and my hands shoved down in my pockets just minding my own business until."Hey, Jake," A voice beside me called out catching my attention as I looked at the person, "Hey, Tatiana, right?" I asked as she smiled, "Look, I and the girls are going down to Aunty Jackie's place, you wanna come with us?" She asked as I thought for a second before shrugging, "Yeah, sure," I said before getting in the backseat with Tatiana._ _ __ _ _ _(Tatiana POV)Ever since I first laid eyes on Jake at
(Ashley’s POV) "What are you talking about?" I asked, approaching him with a furrow as he did the most thing I hate about him.
(Ashely's POV)My mom closed the door behind her as she walked further into the room. I sat on the edge of my bed waiting for her to get on with it but she just stood there awkwardly looking around."Look, mom, I'm really tired," I said as she sighed, "I know, but I want to make things right between us," she said before taking a seat beside me, "This morning, I was wrong for hitting you and I regret it so much, but I wish you'd be nicer to Roger as it will make me happy," she said as I stared back at her in disbelief before shifting away from her and before I could speak, she continued."And I know, I was being selfish, I am being selfish and I know I should've come and discussed this with you and hear your concerns and opinion before I made this big decision, but I didn't and I regret it so much because you're suffering and I promised your father that I would take care of you in the best way I could," She said as we both began to tear up.
That night, Ashely sat in her room debating whether or not she should go check on Jake. It wasn't that she petty him and she surely didn't want to make a fool of herself, but she knew how he felt. The longing for that fatherly love and care, Ashely knew exactly how Jake felt. "Come on, Ash, you can do it," she said trying to boost her confidence before heading over to Jake's room that was right opposite hers. Ashely stood in front of Jake's bedroom door before taking a deep breath, but as she did so, she smelt smoke and to be precise, cigarette smoke. She furrowed before sniffing the air to confirm that the scent was right before knocking on the door, "Jake, are you in there?" she called out but there was no reply, "well, here goes nothing," she mumbled before opening the door, which was surprisingly open. As she entered, Ashely quickly fanned away the smoke that filled the room, "Jake, open a goddamn window for Christ's sake," she said walking over to
Ashley entered her room annoyed, "What the hell is wrong with Anna?" She questioned herself as she searched through her closest looking for something to wear as Jay was heading over to pick her up."Hey, you still haven't answered my question," Jake unexpectedly asked, startling Ashley, who quickly turned around, "When the hell did you get in here?"

Today was finally the day. The day that Jake was returning home to his mother, who finally completed her rehab days.

After what happened he finally got to see Ashley and was relieved that she was alri
The monitor continued to record the movement of her heart as her breathing was calm and steady. The doctor continued to examine his patient before a small smile rose onto his lips, “You’re a strong girl, Ashley,” he mumbled before exiting the room.The doctor was at ease as he didn’t have to break another families’ heart about thei
The lighter slipped out of Tatiana's hand as it hit the wooden floor. Ashley gasped as she jumped backward staring at the fire in pure horror while Tatiana laughed, “You crazy, b*tch, what have you done!” Ashley yelled but Tatiana continued to laugh, “Ashley!” She heard Jake yelling her name from outside as she turned around coughing, “Jake, help me!” She yelled as Jake began to panic, “Can you get out?” He asked as Ashley shook her head with tears rolling down her cheek, “No, the fire is spreading too quickly,” she said as Jake cursed out loud.
A scream left Ashley's mouth as she faced her worst nightmare. There stood Tatiana with a smirk on her face, “I’ve waited such a long time to do this, and let me tell you it feels good,” she said taking a step forward as Ashley moved back, “You know we could’ve been really good friends if you had stayed in your lane,” she said as she continued to walk towards Ashley, who stepped back every time in fear.
Both Ashley and Jake laid breathlessly in bed as their bodies were drenched in sweat. A breathy chuckled left Jake's mouth as he turned towards Ashley, who stared up at the ceiling still trying to catch her breath, "That was awesome," Jake said as Ashley nodded, "If I knew sex with you was that good, I would have finished what I started at home in your bedroom," she said as Jake smirked before pecking her exposed shoulder, "How about a round two?" He asked as Ashley gave him a look that made him burst into laughter, "What's with that face, baby girl?" He asked, still cracking up like an idiot as Ashley sat up with the covers covering her naked chest, "Boy, I can't feel my legs, besi
It's been a few days since Ashley and Jake have been staying at Anna's and to be honest, it was the best decision they have made so far. Ashley got back her best friend, she and Jake got even closer and she was finally introduced to Anna's special friend Tucker, who seemed really cool.Signs of Jay and Tatiana were still unknown as the police continued to search
Jake heard Ashley's scream as he dashed out of the bathroom, but not forgetting to grab him a towel. He carefully rushed downstairs shouting Ashley's name before entering the living room to find a busted window, a brick on the living room table, and a shaking Ashley in the corner of the room sobbing.He rushes to her side immediately pulling her into his arms as she quickly clenched onto him, "Baby, what happened?" He asked gently rocking her body, "T-They lied to us, " she cried as Jake furrowed, "Who did, baby?" He asked as Ashley pulled away, "The police, they said they would find them, " she said as Jake signed, "I don't want to stay here, Jake, " she said as more tears rolled down her cheeks as Jake wipe them away."Alright, wait here for me to come back, " he said as Ashley began to panic, "No, please don't leave me, " she pleaded as Jake smiled weakly, "Alright, baby, I got you, " he said before lifting her and they both went up to
Jake furrowed as he saw the terror written on Ashley's face. He quickly snatched the phone out of her hand as tears slowly filled her eyes, her hand slowly cupped her opened mouth as a soft sob muffled against her palm. Jake stared blankly at the picture as he lifelessly sat back against the bench-chair. "Is this t-"That was what I was looking for this morning, he was in the house, Jake, this is getting out of hand, we need to go to the police," Ashley cried as Jake placed down her phone on the table before running his hands over his face, "Ashley-"No, Jake, we're going to the police or I'm not going to that house," she sternly said as Jake sighed, "Alright, we'll go to the police," he said as Ashley nodded while wiping her tears as Jake reached for her shaking hand that stopped shaking as soon as he held onto it, "Don't worry everything is going to be sorted out," he said as she nodded gripping onto his hand._ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _Tatiana stormed into her
