"i'd never hurt you, and you know that." (jerome valeska)

a/n: so i'm kinda in love with the thought of jerome being sweet and vulnerable to the reader so...this is what  this chapters gonna be...okay! enjoy! i actually mean it too. hehe
              

(jordyn's (y/n) p.o.v)

"no! that's not what i fucking meant and you know it!" i said angrily. i can't believe jerome's pulling this bullshit, with me of all people. okay, i CAN believe it. it's just very upsetting and annoying.

"oh really?! you didn't mean it that way?! oh fuck off, yes you did!" jerome shouted right back at me. just because i feel like i'm a chore to him sometimes doesn't mean i want to leave him. i know he has issues about that type of stuff, and i try my very best to keep that in my mind because i love him very much, and i don't want him to think i'd leave or betray him.

"NO JEROME! I LOVE YOU SO MUCH! I WOULD NEVER LEAVE YOU!" i shouted loudly. maybe if i raise my volume, my message and point will go to his brain thoroughly.

"LIAR!" he shouted louder than before. nope. went through one ear and out the other.

"this is ridiculous, jerome." i said using my inside voice this time, maybe this won't make tensions so high?

"yes. very ridiculous, jordyn." he said with a roll of his eyes.

"jerome i-" i tried to finish my sentence when jerome ran up to me and pushed me against the nearest wall. glad he cares so much.

"listen. i know you wouldn't leave me. not only because you're madly in love with me, as i. but also because if you were to leave, i'd kill you. but i could never kill you, doll. and if i did kill you, i'd probably kill myself. and we don't want that now do we?" asked jerome with a cocked head.

"no, no. we wouldn't want that." i said trying hide my fear, arousal, and admiration.

jerome chuckled a bit. yes, in his usual, sadistic and attractive way of chuckling. he put his hand on my chin and made me make eye contact with him. "i love you very much, doll. and i can't really afford you running away or killing me." KILLING HIM?! oh my god. this poor boy has to worry about the girl he's in love with killing him? is he trying to make me love all over him right now? probably. "ya know after how lila, cicero, uncle zack, miah, gallavan, and dwight treated me, i have to double check every once in awhile to see if someone's gonna kill me. so don't let my doubts offend you, it's just precaution." he said with a smile.

"i'd never kill you, jerome. you know that too." i said trying not to cry right now. he is not gonna make me do this while i'm trying to prove a goddamn point. "i love you." i said with a saddened tone. he just looked confused. how is this confusing? he's amazing and perfect, and he's confused as to why i'm in love with him? "hey." i said grabbing his attention. "i love you, and i'd never hurt you. do you understand that, jerome?" i finished narrowing my head at him.

(jerome's p.o.v)

i looked at her as if she was insane. i mean, she's never don't anything to hurt me. purposefully anyway. and it's never been fatal. but how could she NOT expect me to be weary of her intentions. i love her so very much but, even people that love you, or are at least SUPPOSED to can hurt you. badly. and i'd know that.

i looked down at our feet. i felt stupid. she grabbed my face this time and made me look at her. god. i feel so...weak. i don't like it. "i know you'd never hurt me. i'm sorry." i said.

"hey, i understand. it'd make sense for you to be weary." she said with a sweet smile. "but whenever you feel that way, i'll be here to tell you time and time again, i'd never hurt you in any way." she finished. she pulled my face to hers, and our lips were on each other. jordyn always says how my lips are "so soft" and how my kiss is so "sweet and gentle." that's because when i kiss her i want to project all those endorphins and chemicals into her brain so she knows how amazing she makes me feel. and she shows me right back. and i deserve that. i'm a human being still. even though i've been resurrected from the dead and have my face stitched onto me. jordan always calls me perfect even with this face. she sees the flaws and scars but it's almost as she admires them. i'm all for ogling jerome, but for these reasons? that must be love because any other person would be terrified of me. they should be. but jordyn. she's never terrified. maybe anxious or worried about what i might do, but she's never quivering at the thought of me.

"let's go to bed okay?" i said playing with her bottom lip with my thumb. she nodded softly. she wrapped her arms around my neck, her legs around my waist, and head on my left shoulder. as i entered the bedroom she was already asleep. she's so cute. i lied her down and wrapped my right arm around her waist. careful to hold her tight to ensure she never leaves or disappear into the night or thin air.

a/n: i'm half asleep yall. might as well be intoxicated. um if this makes no sense...yeah. and my powers going out constantly:) love that!
