My Badboy Story

Chapter 14

~~~Jake's P.O.V.~~~

"But we can't be together yet." It hurts to say this and see the hurt shining in her eyes as she slides off my lap "only because now isn't a good time, when we get settled and have resolved something's and you have gotten use to being with us, then I will be so happy to be with you but not now." I tell her. I watch as her face goes from hurt to completely blank and void of expression.

"I understand" she says quietly. I sigh and start the car to catch up with my brothers. I like her, a lot but now is not the time for something serious. She still doesn't even know about exactly why we have to leave, I've been meaning to tell her.

"Avery, do you know why my brothers and I had to leave?" I ask.

"Not really" she says looking out the window.

"Okay it's kind of a long story. My uncle when he was younger got involved with a gang and the accepted him really young. They were just playing him to pin a robbery on him and my father, his older brother, found this out and decided to get involved with the rival gang to take them out before they could hurt his little brother. Eventually he started liking being apart of the gang so he killed the leader and took upon the roll of the leader." I pause to see if she is still following me.

"So he decided anyone in the rival team were to either join him or die. He met my mother and she didn't want to be apart of the gang violence and she told him it was either her or him. He chose her, then when I was thirteen she died of cancer and he went back to the gangs he gave us the option join or die, so we started to hide, he found us and killed out six year old brother in front of us. So we chose to retaliate and set a bomb in their head quarters and killed a large amount of his members." I don't even notice the tears in my eyes till I finish. "So yeah, that's why we are on the run"

"I'm sorry Jake" she says quietly.

~~~Avery's P.O.V.~~~

After Jake's story we don't talk, we just sit in an uncomfortable silence. When we stop for gas I switch cars and hop in the passengers seat next to Dylan. He's actually really nice and sweet.

************* 2 months later************

A/N don't hate me for the time jump, I did it for a real good reason and I will fill you in on anything that happened in those two months! Ok now that we have that cleared up, continue!

~~~Avery's P.O.V.~~~

I wake up and roll out of my bed and into my workout clothes. I dress quickly, put my hair in a bun and walk out meeting Jake. He stands by the door looking as gorgeous as ever. Over the last two months we have gotten a lot closer. I know a lot more about him and vise versa.

"Okay Avery what do you want to do, run first or gym?" He asks. Ever since we found a place Georgia, Jake and his brothers have been training me to take care of myself, I do secretly worry that when they think I'm good enough they will leave. I push those thoughts away and get back to now.

"Let's run first" I love running, the thrill of escaping. It's An amazing feeling.

"Alright" and with that we head out the door of the apartment and hit the running trails.
