"There must be some way, Margo!" I shouted, pacing back and forth. "Tessa, you signed that contract and it clearly stated you had to stay with it until October 28th of this year. What's gotten into you?!" Margo retaliated. I sighed. I couldn't work with Andy, I just couldn't. Meetings with him for five days a week...I just couldn't. And the rest of them! Did Jinxx tell Andy about my pregnancy? I was betting on a negative..."Please Margo, I really can't work with these men...it's just a long--" Margo cut me off. "Your social life does not fit into your job, Tessa! I gave you this promotion for a reason, show me I was right." Balling my hands into fists, I knew she was right. "O-O-Okay...I'm sorry, I will be at the meeting today and every other day. Thank you." I walked out of her office as calmly as possible, though I wanted to scream. I couldn't quit--I was getting great pay and it was so hard to find a job right now. But I couldn't work with Andy, the memories were too painful and the sensation of falling every time I saw him, it was all too much. Getting in the car, I stopped at home before heading to the studio.
I remembered to bring a mechanical pencil and my notebook from yesterday. The unfinished sentence from yesterday stared at me. I didn't plan on finishing it.
"Same room as yesterday?" I shakily asked the woman I assumed was the studio manager. "Oh, Tessa! Hi! No, that room is being used up today. Just go down the hall and walk to the very very end, three doors from the end is a room on the right where there's tables and chairs and things. Just go in there." I nodded. I pushed the thoughts of that night to the back of my head. It still seemed like a dream, maybe that's why I wasn't crying today. Or maybe I had just run out of tears. I headed to the end of the hall and found a very small room with six chairs and a desk. I had a feeling this room was usually empty.
As I sat in wait, Jinxx peeked in. I pretended not to see him, although I wasn't angry at Jinxx. He had done nothing wrong, and he was the only one who knew about the baby, or so I assumed. "Tess, hey..." He said softly. I was strong enough to hold back tears around Jinxx. "Can we talk? Like, alone?" I nodded, pressing my lips into a thin line. Jinxx sat down in the chair next to mine. "I know this all seems strange and...it is in a way...but I just want to let you know what's changed, okay? Will you hear me out?" He asked. I nodded again, and a small smile made itself home on Jinxx's face. "Okay, good. Where to start..." He shifted position nervously and began to speak.
"After you left, Andy got worse. He didn't have anyone there for him or anything. I left too, but I kept in touch with CC. He got arrested for possession of illegal drugs, and although Ashley bailed him out, he kept getting worse. A half a year later, I came back. I pulled him out of the mud, and I guess that sort of went hand in hand with the other's. It was a slow process, but they all started to change. When Andy finally stopped drinking enough to remember you, I guess you could say he relapsed. He refused to tell most of us what, but he kept mumbling 'I've hurt her...I've hurt her...' He opened up to me about how he...raped you, and I tried to nurse him out of it. I kept telling him that you're better now, even though I didn't know. I didn't know where you were at all, but I knew you had the baby. He swore me to secrecy, so I don't think anyone knows. Jake might though, since he took part in a lot of the stuff Andy did to you. Andy started Black Veil Brides to relieve the stress and grief he felt about you, and that's when the light behind his eyes returned. He cried a lot, but he never touched a bottle of alcohol and won't even take a tylenol. The band took off, and the rest of us became just as clean as him. Well, Ashley still drinks a little, but other than that we're all sober. I know it still haunts him, what he did to you. He wrote a song where he explained how you stayed with him and he wished you wouldn't have, how he wished you would have stopped him. Never released it though. He writes about you too, in this book he's got. Talks about how much he loved you and how much he hated himself. How you didn't deserve any of it. While I think he doesn't deserve you, I think you should give him a little closure. He honestly does love you, Tessa. He really does."
Jinxx finished and I was in tears. We waited a few minutes before I finally whispered, "Does he know?" Jinxx leaned in to hear my whisper. "About what?" He asked. "The baby." Jinxx shook his head. "I didn't tell him, I know you wanted it a secret." I let out a sigh of relief. It was hard hearing what Andy went through, but I wasn't going to forgive him at the drop of a hat. It was going to take some easing into. "Thank you, Jinxx, It just...it seems unreal to see him so happy." I sighed. "I know," Jinxx began. "He's still got a lot of himself to figure out, but he's doing pretty well. What do you say?" There was a long pause before I responded. "I can bear with him until October on one condition." Jinxx smiled, uncrossing his legs.
"And what might that be?"
"Don't tell him about the baby."
