"what the fuck JJ."I whispered standing in my kitchen, staring at the blood stained floor. I looked up at the terrified blonde boy standing in my kitchen holding a bloody knife "it was his idea."he pointed to the tall brunette boy that came around the corner stopping on his tracks when he saw me "what the fuck did you two do!"I yelled "I helped you, I saved you, Ruby. I protected you."Rafe smiled coming over to me "are you done needing space?"he asked his hands covered in blood JJ watched us interact. I shoved Rafe back "you killed my fucking dad! How the fuck am I supposed to not need space now!"I screamed pointed to the dead body of my father on the floor shit I was happy but shit. My boyfriend killed my dad. And dragged in my friend. "What do you mean! I fucking saved your life Ruby!"Rafe yelled spitting in my face "get the fuck out unless your gonna clean up the mess you fucking made."I looked into his deep blue eyes. They weren't the same eyes I'd look into and melt at the sight of anymore. "Fine."he whispered walking out I turned to JJ "who stabbed him?"I asked "Rafe."he whispered gulping "help me clean this up, we'll take him somewhere far from here on his boat and dump him. If anyone asks we'll say be skipped towns."I said he nodded
"Thank you, JJ."I cut the silence that was filling the cockpit while JJ drove far out into the sea"for what?"he asked confused "for helping me clean this mess up. And I'm sorry he dragged you into this. God, this is exactly why I never told him about the hitting."I sighed leaning against the wall he stopped the boat and held me as I sobbed into his shoulder "how did we go from barely talking and only bickering to this. Getting rid of your dad's dead body while you sobbed into my shoulder."JJ chuckled trying to enlighten the mood. "Don't know JJ, don't know. But let's get this body out of her, I don't want him stinking up my boat."I pulled away wiping my tears. "Yeah, let's do that."JJ whispered helping me lift my dad's body that had a cinder block tied to his ankle, we pushed it over him lifting up the block throwing it in. I watched as he disappeared. It took a second to set in on what just happened in the past four hours. But when it did settle in and it clicked, I broke down. Falling to the ground sobbing. JJ immediately ran to my side comforting me "god this is why I didn't wanna tell anyone about the hitting and shit! Why!"I screamed standing back up, I lost my shit and punched a window in the cockpit shattering it. "Shit, it isn't easy to break those."JJ whispered while I screamed punching everything in sight he came up to me trying to grab my fists while I weakly punched his chest, I sobbed falling into his chest while he rubbed my head. "Hey, hey, it's ok."he whispered into my ear kissing my head while rubbing my back.
"Hey guys, where were you?"John B asked as we walked into his backyard, we immediately undressed and hopped into the hot tub with them. I didn't look at anyone, just cuddled into JJ while he pulled me into him rubbing my arm "it's been a long day guys."he whispered to them I could see them all nod while I played with the rings on JJ's hand "is this a good time to ask what's going on between you two or no? Like is this is a permanent thing you two together?"Kie asked "ask again tomorrow, Kie."JJ answered she hummed in response I slowly started to have flashbacks about everything. "Fuck!"I screamed my voice raspy from all the screaming I've done in the last 24 hours. I punched the ledge of the hot tub not even caring about the multiple cracks I heard in my hand and the throbbing pain. "Shit."John B whispered them all startled "what the hells wrong with you?"Sarah yelled "everything! Everything's wrong with me! Every fucking thing! My life's been hell the last 48 hours. You wanna know where JJ and I were for the past five hours? Dumping my dad's dead body in the fucking sea! I broke up with Rafe for good six hours ago, my mom grabbed a bag and left town, my ex killed my abusive dad. I have nothing left anymore! No one, I have nothing. All of it, just gone, like that."I broke down sobbing when JJ pulled me into a right hug I sobbed into his shoulder wrapping my arms around his bare back while his arms wrapped around my own bare back. "Fuck."I whispered I pushed JJ back holding my face before I started punching JJ's chest repeatedly, the boys tried stopping me but JJ just told them to let me. I needed this. I needed to get my anger out on someone and punching him repeatedly helped, a lot. JJ hasn't done anything bad to me but honestly, if I were to punch a puppy right now I'd be pleased.
