Sacrifice For Love

Chapter 8

<Louis' POV>

As soon as we reach home, Jess jumps into her bed. I guess she was really tired....

I walk up to her bed. "Do you need anything?" I ask her.

"No thanks." She says with a smile. "Umm, if you don't mind, I'm gonna take a nap."

"Oh sure! No problem! I'll just watch some tv." I say, walking towards the door.

"Sweet dreams," I say, while flipping off the light.

I figured that I would have some time to waste so I decide I'm gonna watch a movie. I go though some drawers to look for one, when I come across a book with the boys and my picture one the cover. 'Jessica's Dairy' it read.

I opened it and started reading. It felt wrong but I really wanted to know more about her.

'Dear diary, today, somehow, I miss my brother even more. I just want him back. Sometimes I feel like its my fault, and that my parents are suffering because of me. I smile and try to be joyful. I don't want anyone to know my pain. Anyways if I tell them, they won't understand.

Writing is my only way of letting out my feelings. Music helps too, but not as much as writing.

And I also didn't want anyone to know about Mike and how he bullies me, but Louis found out. And that was the day when I missed you more. It was just too much. The bulling and my brother. I just wanted to lock myself in a bathroom and cry. But I'm kind of glad he found out about Mike because he stood up for me. Now Mike doesn't send me those hurtful texts. I need to thank him, though. He won't understand why I'm saying thanks to him but I just need to say it. Maybe I'll tell him tomorrow. That's it for now, bye!'

When I finished I had so much questions racing though my mind. 'What happened to her brother?' 'Why didn't she say thanks yet? 'Why is she hiding her pain?' I wanted answers, and I wanted them fast. But I can't ask her or else she'll know I was reading her diary.

{half an hour of looking for a movie later}

"Argh! I give up!" I scream. I just couldn't find a movie!

I stand up and walk towards the kitchen. I open the fridge and look for something to eat.

"Hmmm, apples or strawberries?" I ask myself.

"I would pick the strawberries," a voice says.

I scream a girly scream as I jump up and hold my heart.

"You almost killed it," I say, pointing to my heart. Jess giggles and walks towards me.

"Which do you want?" She asks me.

"Strawberries." I say quickly.

"Do you want me to cut it for you, so you don't get a boo boo and I have to kiss it?" She coos at me and I roll my eyes.

"No! I want you to cut it for me cause, cause I'm too lazy to cut it!" I protest, with my arms folded across my chest. I walk towards the couch and sit down, waiting for her to finish cutting.

She rolls her eyes and starts cutting the fruit. After about two minutes she comes in the living room and holds out the bowl of freshly cut strawberries.

"Thank you very much," I say while taking the bowl from her hands. I start eating and it tastes so good. Better than the ones we get in England.

"Where did you buy this from?" I ask Jess.

"The grocery store," she replies absentmindedly.

"Wow! Shocking!" I say and she giggles.

"Yes. Very." She replies.

<Jessica's POV>

Me and Louis were watching tv although I really wasn't. I kept arguing with myself, whether to tell him about Mike and thank him or to just leave it. I had to tell him thanks before but I just didn't have the courage.

I take a deep breath in before I tell him thanks. It's not a big deal for others, but for me it is.

"Thanks, Louis." I say, looking at my hands fiddling with each other.

"Ummm, no problem? He says, looking very confused.

Phew! And I thought he would ask why.

"Why?" He asked. Great! Just what I didn't want!

"Umm, for letting me sleep in the afternoon." I say, very quickly.

"Umm, okayy," he says then looks back at the TV and continues eating the strawberries I cut for him.

Well, that could've been worse..
