Adopted By Sleeping With Sirens

Chapter 21

Jack

I had no idea what had just happened nor did I know what was going on. I know for sure that Marisol's breakup did push her to the edge, clearly. I decided to just call Alex to help me. I wanted to call the ambulances but my maps were telling me I had no connection and signal. Which was true, I had one bar so I had to make this count. It was getting colder due to winter coming, and I've been out here with Marisol laying in my arms. I needed to get help.

After the phone rang for approximately 12 minutes after many attempts to make a call, Alex said he was on his way without Lisa. Thank god. I slowly shook Marisol and she didn't wake. She must me deep sleeping I guess. Maybe it was the alcohol she drank tonight. I had no clue how much she really drank. I waited for what felt like hours. "Marisol" I said and she didn't move or wake. I exhaled exhaustingly. I hope everything is going to be okay for her. She didn't seem fine a while ago, she seemed so upset. I want to know why she said she wanted to die though.

Alex showed up about 10 minutes later and helped me put her in the car. She needs a good place to stay and I see she doesn't have that. I really do care for her.

Marisol

After waking up to the worst pounding headache, I opened my eyes and I noticed I was cuddling and hugging a huge stuffed puppy. I weakly smiled at the cottoned thing and kissed it's nose. After, I closed my eyes again. Trying to think without my head hurting was hard. I remembered last night and cringed inside. My eyes shot open, I can't be here. I need to disappear. Why am I still here? I got up and saw my shoes next to me. I put them on and then grabbed my hoodie that was on the chair next to me and put that on as well. I looked at the doorway and saw Jack shaking his head no.

"You're dad wants you to stay right where you are" he said holding a cup and a white tablet. I looked away and back at him. "Here. This is going to help you-" he kindly said. "—You told my dad? I am a grown woman!" I yelled and tried to shove past him but his iron chest didn't even allow me to shove him. I bounced off of him and started hitting his chest. "I'd like to leave! I am not a damn child!" I yelled. "You are sure acting like it! And where would you go? You have no car with you. You have nowhere else to go but your dads!" He yelled after the many hits I gave to his chest. I started feeling liquid escape my eyes. Jack grabbed my wrists and fell to the ground with me. "Hey Marisol. Marisol, please don't cry. Everything is alright. I am sorry. I didn't mean to sound harsh. You are just a little confused" he said and he was right. I was confused. I don't know.

I gave in and cried in his arms. "I don't want to loose a friend of mine or even see a friend of mine so hurt." He said and I pulled away and looked one last time at him. I did remember last night but that happening, and still given no explanation, really did hurt. "Goodbye Jack" I said and ran to the door and out. I ran and ran. I didn't hear anyone running after me which is good.

Jack

I stood there shocked. She doesn't care does she? "Jack did she—Jack. Where is Marisol?" Alex came in the room asking. "She's gone" I whispered. "What do you mean?" Alex asked me. "I let her go" I said and Alex went to happy Alex to mad Alex. "You what! I can't believe you–Kellin just texted me that he was on his way! He said keep her here! Dude let's go now. We have to find her now. You told me the story about what happened last night with her and Josh, she is so vulnerable and not in a good state of mind! She could do something dumb!" Alex stormed out of the room and I hurried after him. He was right and if anything, Marisol could be dumb and make a wrong decision. He was putting his sweatshirt on and I did too.

Lisa came running down the steps. "Hey what's wrong babe?" She said wrapping her arms around him. "Not now. Marisol is in danger" he said and Lisa wrinkled up her nose. Alex looked at the door for three seconds and back directly in Lisa's face. "You may not like her but I do. Fuck I'd date her if you hate her so much. She's been my bestfriend for a while now and you know that Lisa. Stop being this jealous pickle and just be her friend too. If you want us together, that's totally fine with me just stop it please. If you don't want that, then only accept us as best friends and just know your my wife. I don't do the controlling lovers thing. It's not high school" he bluntly said and Zack covered his mouth saying a soft and quiet, oooooooooh. Rain and I held out laughs in ever so tightly, trying to not make a face of explosion.

"Let's go you boys" Alex said and turned around and out the door he went. We followed and looked at Lisa and started laughing and she just walked away giving us mean looks.

I am sitting in the backseat because me and Zack argued about who sits in where and let's just say he won. Me and Rian and in back while Alex drives with Zack next to him. "Where did you see her the last time we picked you guys up?" Alex asked as we looked around. "There" I pointed at a spot that I recognized and nobody stood in the spot. No one was even around. Alex looked at me and shook his head. "She's not here" he said. We looked and looked for hours. Still nothing. I really hope she's okay and it is not a goodbye.

"We are fucking screwed if Kellin finds out Jack" Alex said. I looked straight at Alex, "are you really worried about what Kellin might th-" "NO IM WORRIED ABOUT MY BESTFRIEND JACK LIKE I WOULD BE WORRIED FOR YOU!" He said and his face went pale. "Alex are you okay?" Zack asked him. Alex nodded and looked at me in a funny way and back at driving. I thought for a long while. Why was my bestfriend every since high school acting like this?

I looked out the window and then saw cop cars. I pushed my nose in the window and Alex must've saw me because the whole car stopped and we all jumped out. I took off running towards the cops and bumped into one making us go flying. "Oh my- I am so sorry!!" I said and the cop gave me a mean look and then I was being lifted up. "I am even sorrier too" and I couldn't move my hands properly. "What the hell!?!" I yelled. I was being cuffed.

"HEY WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK MAN! Get your hands off of him!!" I heard Alex yell and the cops dragged him away and a bunch of cops surrounded each of us and pretty soon I saw Alex get swung at. "HEY STOP!!" I heard screaming and I turned to see Marisol in a carrier. She had tears coming down her face and she seemed to be crying for hours. What happened!?
