A/N Back off holiday!

Jake's POV 

Is this a good idea? Does she even know who I am? Should I be taking her away from her mother? What happens if her mother finds out? Shut up Jake! Whats wrong with you, im not normally like this. Well at least she hasn't called the police, i probably would be locked up right now if she did or running through the woods looking for a new hideout. Where am I going to take her for the day? I got to avoid most areas in this town because everyone is out to find me for a stupid reward.

Jesy's POV

Im out! Im free! No mother chasing me. Wait! What if she comes back and finds me not there. Oh no this is a bad idea, I will get punished so bad. But then again im out! I could just run away and find somewhere better to live. Who cares about my mother, I should just enjoy the day with- um? Oh God I don't even know his name.

"Whats your name?" I ask out of the blue. I remember last time I asked he ignored the question. 

"Um, when the last time you ate?" He asked like he never heard my question. He's changed the subject again so I couldn't know his name. Why don't he just tell me? What I suppose to call him: Stranger, Boy? I don't know. 

"Well I did have some cereal made this morning but I was interrupted but  a stranger in my garden" I said hoping he gets what Im trying to say.

"Oh- yeah- im sorry about that" he stuttered like he didn't know what to reply to me. "Lets go out for brunch then" he said in a completely different mood from 5 seconds ago. 

I couldn't say no because 1 I was starving and 2 I was stuck with him for the day. The walk to where ever he was taking us was in silence, all you could he was the sound of your feet walking on the stoney path and when now and again a random car drives past. 

I wanted to talk to him but I didn't know what to talk about so I just kept my head low to avoid any eye contact from him.

He suddenly stop but my side making me suddenly stop too and look up. I front of me was a road with little cottage shops and house like a little village. It was really quiet, and peaceful looking village. 

"In here" he suddenly said point to the right of us. It was a little cafe shop with vintage furniture and decorations. There was only a couple in there and of course the owner of the cafe. I followed him into the cafe and he walked towards the bad of the cafe where it was a bit more private. I got the feeling he has been here before or is a daily customer.

He pulled out a chair for me to sit in and I gladly accepted it giving him a small smile and a thank you. He sat down opposite me and picked up the menu and gave one to me. I looked through the menu looking at all the delicious options. I could see in the corner of my eye him looking at me I looked at him and put the menu down. 

I looked to the left and I followed too to see a waitress waiting to take our orders. "Oh, sorry I didn't see you there" I said and I could feel the heat rise on my cheeks. "I would like the cheese and bacon panini please and a glass of water please" I said closing the menu looking towards him "I'll have the same as her please" he said following my actions an smile at me then to the waitress. "That will be on its way shortly" the waitress said with a smile and walked off the the kitchen. 

"So what do you do for a living?" He asked whilst rubbing his thumbs together. "Well" I say with a big sigh "I wouldn't say I have a job or anything as im stuck in my house. But at the moment my mother making me read loads of school textbooks, which I do not enjoy" I say with a dull attitude. "Shouldn't your mother let you go out your house? You seem old enough to look after yourself" he says with questionable look. "This is what I try to tell me mother" I say waving my arms around. "Im 17 years old I should be able to go out with friends and go to college" I said shrugging my shoulders and looking down at my hands.

"You know what" he says taking my hands in his making me giving him full attention and eye contact "what?" I say in a whisper. "Im going to help you. I don't like seeing you upset because of your mother" he says but pauses as he sees the waiter come over. The waitress places out food and drinks on the table and says"enjoy" whilst walking away. I look back to him letting him know he can continue from where he left off "I want you to live like a normal 17 old girl and enjoy life" he says taking a bite of his panini "And how are you going to do that?" I ask and taking a bite of my food. "What ever it takes" he says with a smile on his face. "Thank you" I smile and lean over the table and give him a kiss on the cheek. 

Whilst we were eating we got interpreted by a load siren echoing throughout the street outside the cafe. A police car? Why would it come here in a happy, peaceful village. I was interrupted by him dropping his panini on his plate making a load noise making me whip my head his direction. 

"We need to go" He said standing up and taking me hand "But wait! We haven-t fin-"  i said with confusion. "Come on! we got to go now!" he said pulling me up out of me sit and rushing out of the cafe.
