Made For Me

Chapter 3

Penelope's POV

I woke up next to Jamie. He was fast asleep. It was Saturday and I had work. I got up slowly trying my hardest not to wake him up. Before I could put my hand on the door handle I felt two large arms wrapping around my waist. It was Jamie.

"Morning Sunshine!" He chuckled, lifting me up and kissing my cheek. He let me go and I turned to face him.

"Good morning Jamie." I said, shyly.

"I have some Frosted Flakes. I know they're your favorite." He smiled. We both walked to the kitchen and I sat down. He began pouring me a bowl of cereal and milk. He sat my bowl in front of me and went to make his coffee.

"I need a spoon." I said, neutrally.

"I need you to say it more respectfully sweetie."

"Can I please get a spoon Jamie?" I asked, forcing a smile.

I didn't want to argue with him anymore. It is clear to me now that the Jamie I once knew is gone. But then again... did I even know him to begin with?

"Of course Penny." He grabbed me a spoon then handed it to me. I grabbed it and gave him another forced smile. He kissed my cheek and went to fix up his coffee that had just finished brewing.

He sat down in front of me as I ate my breakfast. He watched me intensely. I had so many things to ask him and I had no clue where to start.

"Jamie?" I spoke, catching his attention. It was clear he was thinking as he watched me before.

"Yes Babygirl?"

I hated the nickname he gave me. It was a little weird. And he called me Penny to... which was sweet.

"I have work today." I coughed, trying to get my mind out of the gutter.

"I'll call the library and let them know you quit." Jamie said, sipping his coffee.

"What? No, I'm not quitting Jamie. I need to go to work."

"Don't worry I'll handle your bills. Hmm actually I'll get your stuff and tell the school you won't be needing your dorm because you'll be living with me."

"I'm not going to live with you Jamie! You're not the boss of me and you sure as hell ain't my dad!"  I yelled, standing up.

He grabbed me by my neck and pushed me against the wall. I was struggling to breathe.

"Don't you ever raise your fucking voice at me again! Do you understand Princess?" I just looked at him as tears rolled down my face.

"Y-yes." I cried, my voice sounding scratchy because of the loss of air.

He let go and I fell to the ground. I wiped my tears and stood up. I walked to the room and immediately broke down crying.

I pulled my hair and hit my head as I fell to the floor. I couldn't handle the abuse. No. This can't be happening to me. After minutes of crying I heard the door open. It was Jamie.

He lifted me up and caressed my cheek. Almost like it was a dying Rose. He sat down on the bed with me on his lap.

"I didn't want to do that Penny but you left me no choice. You have to take accountability for your part in this. If you didn't lash out at me I wouldn't have choked you."

"But-"

"No buts sweetie. You know I'm right. I'm always right." He cut me off.

A part of me knew I was the innocent one here but it was a small part of me. I felt bad for what I did. I shouldn't have said those things to him.

"I'm sorry Jamie." I cried, digging my face into his neck.

"It's ok baby, I will always forgive you. It's because I love you." He reassured me, rubbing my back.

"Jamie, can I have my phone?"

"No Penelope, but I will get you a tablet soon."

"Can we go now! Please Jamie, it's a Saturday!" I pleaded.

"Alright, but do not act up or you will get a spanking!"

"Okay!"

We got dressed and got inside Jamie's car. It was nice and it smelled like expensive cologne. The ride to Best Buy was quiet. I was nervous.

Should I try to escape? No he'll get mad. But many people will be there. He knows that so he gots everything under control.

"Hello! Earth to Penny!" Jamie called, knocking me out of my thoughts.

"Oh sorry I was just thinking." I hadn't even realized we were already parked at the store.

"What were you thinking about?" He asked, rubbing his chin.

"N-nothing Jamie." I stuttered, rubbing my head. We both got out of the car and walked into Best Buy.

It wasn't as crowded as I expected. We walked to the apple tablets and Jamie picked one. It was rose gold. We were about to go to the checkout line when I saw a cute purple case for the tablet. I tapped Jamie on the shoulder and pointed to the case.

"Please Jamie!!!!"

"Alright Princess, just because it's cute just like you." He smiled. I grabbed it and we went to the checkout line.

Once we got up to the cashier I noticed a familiar face. Trent aka my ex. He started scanning our stuff and kept looking up at me.

"I see you moved on Penny." He smirked, eyeing Jamie.

"Don't call me that and it's not like that."

"Then what is it like Penelope? Is he another one of your boy toys?" He said, raising his voice a little.

"Leave her alone dude or else." Said Jamie, puffing his chest up a little to make him look intimidating.

"Or else what white boy?" Trent snapped back.

"Or else I'll make sure the next time your family sees you is in the hospital."

Even Trent was a little scared by that. Maybe it was Jamie's abs but
I think it was the fact that he was smiling the whole time. Almost like he enjoyed it.

"Fuck you man. She's only going to break you." Trent said, bagging our stuff.

"I won't. He doesn't cheat on me with multiple women." I retorted. Me and Jamie both walked out with grins on our faces.

We got in the car and immediately Jamie's lips collided into mine. I didn't fight it. The way he stuck up for me was so fucking hot.

We stopped the kiss smiling at eachother. For a split second I forgot everything he has done to me. But he saved me from taking my life. He's my hero and he loves me...
