Remember me

~chapter 5~

Alex's POV:

I left in a rush. It was like a voice in side me told me that I shouldn't be here. I couldn't handle it no more, so a started running.

I froze.

Jennifer was in the floor and some guy was trying to steal her purse.

But she was fighting.

I kept running until I reached the guy. The anger forming inside me control all my action. I pulled the light skinned little guy away from Jennifer and punched him right in the eye. He felt to the ground but got up before I could do anything and started running. I was about to run after him when I remembered that Jennifer was still on the ground. I couldn't leave her alone again.

I extended my hand to her and she blinked at little before grabbing it, as if she was trying to understand everything that just happened.

Great. She just got out of the hospital and this happens. Just great.

"You okay?" I got my answer when had some kind of meltdown.

I could see her mascara flowing down her cheeks. I tried to hug her but the took a couple of steps back. "It alright Jenny. You're safe with me, I will always protect you. I swear." And I wasn't lying she is my life, everything I had and I won't let anything happen to her.

She seamed to believe me because she jumped right into my arms and I hold her tightly. "I want to go home" she whispered.

"It's alright. I'll take you home" we walked to the car, she was always close to me. That kind of made me feel better, because she felt safe around me. But I still have anger inside me. If I had that guy in front of me right now, I would beat the crap out of him!

But it wasn't the time to think about that. I opened the door for her and she slide inside putting on her seat belt. I went around the car and got inside.

"Feeling better?" She shoot her head. "I'm sorry. It's all my fault. I promise it won't happen ever again"

"It wasn't your fault."

"It kind of was"

"No" I didn't feel like arguing about who's fault was it, and it think she didn't either so I didn't say anything else.

The ride home was quiet. But she looked like she calmed down a little, but she was still pretty terrified.

We walked inside the apartment and it all seamed quiet. "looks like Catherine is not home yet" it was reasonable considering the fact the her family lived Philadelphia and that it was still 10:15pm. We sat on the couch and turned on the tv. The news were on. We watched for a while in silence.

"So I guess I should go" I said standing up.

"Wait" her voice stopped me and I turned around. "Can you stay until Cat gets home? I don't want to be alone"

I had work at nine in the morning tomorrow, but I wasn't going to leave her alone if she wanted me to stay. So I just smile and sat down next to her. We watched tv for about half an hour.

"Come with me, I gotta show you something" she said standing up. I stood up too and follow her to her room. She grabbed her shiny guitar. I remember when I gave it to her for our anniversary, sometimes it looked like she loved that thing more than me.

"Watch" she played a little bit on her favorite song and I watched her fingers played with the guitar strings. And she stopped. "Can you tell me the name of that song?"

I smile "I'm not okay by my chemical romance. That's your favorite song and my chemical romance is your favorite band"

"Oh. It's a nice song"

"Yes" we heard somebody open the door. "It looks like Catherine is home"

"Yeah" she put the guitar back and we both walked out. Catherine looked at us.

"Where were you two?" She asked raising an eyebrow.

"We were in my room. I wanted to know the name of a song I was playing in the guitar" explained Jenny quietly.

"Oh. So Alex don't you got stuff to do?" I knew that meant that I was supposed to leave because they were going to gossip. Most likely about the date.

"Oh right. I should probably go and get some sleep. See tomorrow i guess" I looked at Jennifer. I just smiled. Not knowing what to do and the next thing that happened was the last thing I was expecting. She wrapped her arms around me tightly.

"thank you for saving me."

" no problem. Just remember that a will never let anything happen to you" she let got and smile. "Bye"

"Bye" they both said in union. And i walked out.

Jennifer's POV:

As soon as Alex left Cat pulled me into her room and made me sit down on the bed. "so tell me everything. what was that about saving you?"

"we went to my favorite restaurant"

"and" I might as well just tell her everything.

"Our waitress was trying to flirt with Alex but he didn't pay attention to her. But when we were leaving he forgot the give her tip so he went back and i started walking to the car. It was all lonely and..." i paused at the memory, a tear was sliding down my cheek. "Some guy threw me on the floor and tried to steal my purse. But Alex appeared and punched him in the face and he started running."

"Oh my god Jenny" she gave me a tight hug, that just made me cry for real. "Don't cry."

She gave me a tissue and I dried off my tears. don't think about that jennifer. everything in fine. i said to myself. And put on a smile. "so how was your day?'
