Not a Fairytale

Come home

"What are you talking about Jessie??!!" Danny screamed angry, while he was walking closer to her. Jessica's body just froze, and she looked at him with scared eyes. "I LOVE YOU! AND I KNOW YOU LOVE ME!!!!!!" He screamed. "I don't Christ.... how can I love you??? you beat me, and you treat me like I'm nothing!!" Jessica screamed back. "And love, Jesus... how can this be love?" She continued with a tearful voice, while she was referring to how her face was looking. "I said I was sorry, it was a mistake!!" Danny said, this time with a lower voice. Jessica quickly walked away from him, up the stairs, and into their gigantic master bedroom. Danny quickly ran after her, and when he came into the bedroom, Jessica had pulled out her suitcase from under the bed, and started to put her close into it. "Jessica what the hell are you doing!!!??..... Stop doing that!!" Danny said with an angry voice, while he grabbed some of the clothes out of her hands, and placed it back in the closet. But Jessica quickly pushed him away, and placed the clothes back in her suitcase, before she used all her power to close it....... "...Leave me alone.. I don't ever wanna see you again!" Jessica said with anger in her voice, before she grabbed her suitcase, and started walking downstairs.

Just when she was supposed to walk out the front door, Danny quickly grabbed her around the wrist, and pulled her back. Which made her lose the suitcase. Jessica quickly rubbed her wrist in pain, and looked at him with even angrier eyes. "Please don't do this Jessica!" He said with red eyes. Jessica just shook her head while she was crying, because she didn't knew what to do. Well she knew that she needed to leave, that was the only right thing to do! And finally she was strong enough to do it. It was something she should have done a long time ago!

"I send some over to get my stuff, the first thing in the morning!" She said with a weak voice, before she quickly walked out.... Danny was speechless, he couldn't believe that she had left him. She was the love of his life, how could he be so stupide letting go of her....

It was nine o'clock in the evening, and Jessica was driving her car down to the city, trying to get a hotel room. She drove over to Hotel Le Marais, and decided to stay there for the night..

When she got into the room, she just took of her cloths, and looked at herself in the mirror in the bathroom. Blue, purple, red and yellow were all colors that covered her face. How could she let a man do this to her. How could Danny do this to her? He couldn't really love her?  Could he? That was all questions that buzzed though her head.

They fell in love the first moment they looked at each other, and they had been together since then. They had been together for almost 5 years. He meant everything to her, and they had been so happy. Until things slowly started to change. She loved him, she really did. But she hated all the things he did to her. It was when they got married everything changed. The constant fighting, the jealousy, the beating, the yelling and the controlling. He always did something awful to her, and then he apologized, like if it never happened.... like it wasn't such a big deal that he hit her in the face. "I lost my temper... I'm sorry! I love you so much!" He used to say after he had hit her or accused her for something....

Jessica kept thinking about her life, and the years with Danny. And she could feel tears starting to come down her face. He had caused so much tears and pain. She couldn't do that anymore. Mabey it was the right thing to do, maybe that was the best thing she had ever done, ....leaving Danny....

When she woke up the next day, Jessica had a bad headache. "Ochh... shit!" She murmured to herself, while she sat up in the bed. She looked around her, before she suddenly recognized where she was, and that Danny wasn't there with her. She slowly went out of bed, and into the bathroom, to get ready. Before she called her assistant to find an apartment she could rent, preferably close to the French Quarter. It didn't take long before her assistant called her back, and had found a great apartment for her. Jessica didn't even bothered to check it out, she just needed a place that didn't belonged to Danny.

Her assistant went over to their house just outside New Orleans, and picked up all of Jessica's things, and brought it back to the apartment just before Jessica arrived..... "Hello...!" Jessica said with a soft voice, while she opened the door to her new apartment. "I'm here!" She heard her assistant from one of the rooms. Jessica slowly walked inside, looking around with big eyes. It was weird having a place by herself. With no one else around, no Danny. It was just her things around.... Nothing belonged to him...

"So what do you think?" The redhead assistant said while she quickly jumped out of the kitchen. Jessica's body jumped a bit, before she started to laugh. "Haha, god.... hah, thank you honey. It's amazing.... But you really didn't needed to do all this!!" Jessica said with a soft voice referring to the fact that her assistant Lorrain had decorated the place, and almost placed all of her things around. "Oh, that's no problem!" She said with a soft voice, giving Jessica a little hug. They talked for a while, before Lorrain had to go home to her husband. Jessica just kept cleaning around, and making it her home, placing her clothes in the drawers, and other things where they belonged.

Suddenly her phone started ringing. "Jesus... I'm coming I'm coming!" Jessica said in a hurry, while she ran over to her phone, located on a chair in the living room. She slowly looked down at her phone, and she saw Danny's name pop up. "Jesus!" She whispered to herself, before she picked it up. "Yes!" She said with a stern voice. She could tell Danny was surprised. "Jesus Christ Jessica. Are you okay, where are you? I've tried to call you like 15 times!!" Danny said with a concerned voice. "....I'm in my apartment... if you must know!!" Jessica said with a low voice, because it made her really sad, talking to Danny. "Your what?" Danny said getting a little angry. "My apartment... well I've rented a place!!" Jessica said while she stood on her tippy toes on a chair, and reached up to a shelf, and tried to place a box full of pictures there. "Jessica, you are taking this way over the line. Come home!" He said with a sad voice. "I'm not coming ho....!" Jessica started, but the box of pictures suddenly fell down, when she tried to place them on the high shelf. "SHIT!!" She said to herself before, she just jumped down from the chair, and sat down. "What....!" Danny said getting concerned. "Nothing... can you just get to the point!" Jessica said with an angry voice, getting more and more frustrated. "Jessie come home, I love you.... !" He said with a soft voice. Jessica didn't knew what to say, so she became quite for a while. "Jessie....!" Danny said again. "It's too late Danny....!" Jessica said with tears in her eyes, before she hung up.

More and more tears came down her cheeks, and she just curled up into a ball on the floor..... Before she suddenly saw a picture of the two of them. It had fallen out of the box, and it was now laying on the floor. She slowly picked it up, and looked at it with watery eyes. It was the first pictures taken of them together. They both looked so happy, so in love.....
