Chapter 12:
"What the hell are you doing in my house?" Luke boomed starring me right in the eyes like a bull ready to charge at the fighter. I gulped but gestured him to be quiet while pointing done the hall towards Jaspers bedroom. It's funny that even in a state of fear I could still manage to think about Jasper. not that I minded. his eyes moved from mine to where I was pointing and that's when me marched towards me.
"I told you to stay away from him!" He hissed grabbing me by my shirt collar and smallish my back to the wall. it didn't hurt but I was scared shitless.
"And I dont care! I'll talk to Jasper if I want and if he wants!" I reply with what ever confidence I could gather. I wasn't going to let him win and I wasn't ready to give up on Jasper just cuz his brother didn't like me. Luke must've not been happy with my answer because his grip on my shirt loosened and they gripped my arm instead and led me to the front door. I resisted but it didn't work.
"Get out of my house and leave him alone!" Luke demanded throwing me out of his house along with my shoes but much like with Jasper I stopped the door from closing. it was a lot harder considering that Luke was more muscular than me but I didn't give up with out a fight.
"I'm not leaving until you tell me why you hate me!" I insisted, pushing against the door feeling and I felt my muscles ready to give up but when I thought about why I was pushing and fighting with Luke, it motivated me to keep trying.
"You're gonna hurt him!" He finally answered exasperated, letting his weight off the door and i took it as my chance to get back inside.
"How do you know? You don't know me-"
"But I know people like you," he said cutting me off, and I couldn't help but notice the way his look changed from being angry to having the same sad look Jasper did when I had got here. I wanted to ask him what he meant but I kind of had a feeling I already knew once I put the pices together of what he told Jasper about me and trying to protect him from me. I guess he was doing it based on experience.
"Well I'm not those people. I know what you told Jasper and like I explained to him, it's not true. I care about Jasper and I would never hurt him."
"That's what they all say!" Luke spat obviously not caring about what I had to say, but i did inherit one trait from my father that could come in handy at times: my stubbornness.
"Maybe them, but not me. I love Jasper and I already promised him I'd never hurt him," I stated and he looked at me with a look I can't explain.
"You love him?" Luke questioned and I gulped. I let it slip, I thought watching fearfully as Luke walked up to me. I didn't answer but braced myself for whatever he had coming for me. I wasn't sure whether to answe or not or what he wanted to hear. I was stuck between telling him the truth and possibly making him mad or lying to him and myself.
"Tell me that you do love him and promise me that you're not lying," Luke said almost begging me. I looked at him with confusion running in my mind. Did I hear him right? Is he really asking me this?
"Promise me if you're not lying," he repeated with annoyance and frustration evident on his face.
"I promise," I said with out hesitation because I really did mean it. I loved him and it felt wonderful admitting it. I only wish I could actually say it too him face to face.
"He likes you too," Luke said after several seconds, walking to the living room and I follow him.
"What?" I asked sitting next to him.
"When he first got here, he was shy and barely talked to me. but then the day he told me about some guy saving him from getting killed, his entire mood changed. he smiled more and even opened up to me about certain things," he answered and I couldn't help but smile knowing that I made Jasper happy.
"He's been painting again. and singing even though he can't," Luke laughed smiling to himself. I looked around the house and looked at every painting that hung on the walls.
"Did he paint those?" I ask. Luke nodded.
"Yeah. When he lived with our dad, he would paint a lot and my dad would send some of his paintings to me because the walls in his house were all filled up."
I awed at the paintings because they were indeed vey beautiful. Jasper was a skilled person and I found myself hoping he'd paint something for me one day.
"What happened to your father if Jaspers living here?" I asked when I saw a picture of Jasper with an older looking man that I assumed was there father.
"He died," Luke said sadly and I instantly felt bad.
"I'm so sorry, I shouldn't of asked," I apologized and Luke shook his head.
"It's fine. you didn't know. I'm actually surprised Jasper didn't already tell you."
"Why's that?"
"He seems to trust you, and that's why I'm scared he's gonna get hurt by you," Luke said and I sighed. we're back to this again.
"I won't."
"Yeah well that's what our mother told him too," he mumbled and I frowned.
"What?" I asked and Luke stared at me and I could tell he was contemplating whether or not he should tell me something personal or not. and after several seconds he did, and I was filled with sadness for Jasper and anger towards his mother for causing an innocent child so much hurt.
-
"Jesus Christ," I mutter under my breath when Luke finished talking. I was still trying to grasp what he told me because it seemed like something you would hear on the news and I just found it hard to believe it happened to Jasper.
"Yeah," Luke said, starring at the coffee table with a blank expression on his face.
"How can a mother do that to her child?" I inquired and he shrugged.
"I don't know. Jasper told me that she said she would do it cuz she loved him, but I call bullsh!t on that." I nodded in agreement.
"I promise I will never ever hurt Jasper in any way," I vowed, looking him in the eyes so he knew I wasn't lying. He looked at me then told me that if I ever did hurt Jasper or ever made him cry, that he wouldn't hesitate to kill me and I knew he wasn't bluffing. The glare on his face and the love I knew he had for Jasper proved it. But at the same time, he was doing what his mother did to Jasper, with out the abuse anyways and I doubt he was aware of it. Hopefully he didn't turn into the crazy women.
-
That night I left their home and went to mine. I couldn't sleep and just layed on my bed starring at the ceiling thinking about Jasper. even with the crazy new information I learned about him, my thoughts and feelings towards him didn't change. I even think they increased. the only thing that changed was my need to benthic for him. Someone had to help him experience the wonderful things that life had to bring and help him forget about the crazy things brought in his life.
I wanted to be that person and I just hope he lets me.
