Good or Bad?

Chapter 8: Emotions

I run outside and mentally cursing myself. My wallet and keys are in my locker.

When im contemplating going inside, i turn to see Jb running towards me full speed.

"Jb-" I couldnt finish talking before im being dragged by Jb, trying to not trip.
When he is finally done dragging me across the parking lot, we end up in front of a motorcycle. Hell to the no.

"If you think that im ge-"

"You have no choice. That is if you want to find Sara." Jb said, smirking because he knows he is my last option.

Jb turns around and gets on the bike, passing me a helmet. I get on the back and place the helmet on. Except he doesnt put a helmet on.

"Where's your helmet?"

"Your wearing it baby." He says.
Great so now if he dies im screwed.

"What if we crash?" Shit. Hope we didnt just jinx us. I knock on Jb's head. If theres no wood around, you knock on a virgin's head.

"Okay? I dont know what that was ha." He said awkwardly.

"I dont want to jinx us so Im supposed to knock on a virgin's head." I explained.

"Hahahahha. Yea. Right. Virgin." He said, laughing in between.

I probably just look like -> 0_0
Well I guess you learn new things about people everyday.

"So you arent a virgin?" I dont know why I asked. Did I honestly think that hot peice of fuck was a virgin?

"Not even close baby girl. Now hold on or you will fall off." He says.

I hesitate to hold onto his wonderful torso. But as we start to move, i wrap my arms around him as tight as I can.

Through the whole ride to Sara's. I dont think Jb went the speed limit once. Where the hell are all the cops, because my life is at risk right now.

When we finally reach Sara's i dont think ive ever been happier to be alive.

I got on the ground and i pretended to kiss it. Jb just stood there rolling his eyes, and walking forward to Sara's house. Before I could get to the door, I saw Jb fiddeling with keys. I recognize the key he finally finds. How on earth does he have a key to Sara's house?

When he unlocks the door, I just have to ask.

"Um how do you have a key to Sara's house?"

He walked to the counter throwing his stuff down. Making himself really comfortable.

"Sara and I are quite close now actually. I already knew about what Mark did to both of you." He said walking to the stairs.

My head and eyes drop to the floor. I still cant believe that happened.

After I ran from Mark that morning, he went to Sara's house and got abusive when she tried to break up with him. He beat her up and well...he raped her. He took her virginity just like he took mine. Except she wasnt drunk for it. Unlike me, she remembers every single little detail about what he did to her.

Jb spoke, getting me out of the memory, "She doesnt blame you just so you know." I look up to see Jb's sincere eyes. "She knows you werent you that night you were drunk, she knows that you wouldnt do that if you werent drunk." Jb said, sending me a small smile, and then walked up the stairs with me following.

"I already know Mark is back. He has sent me messages and tried calling me since yesterday." Sara said, fiddeling with her hands. Its obvious she isnt okay. She only messes with her hands when she is nervous. And i know she is definetely nervous about Mark trying to find her.

After talking to Sara, she said she needed a week off. I wouldnt want to be in the same class with my ex boyfriend/rapist. And what the saddest thing to know, is that Sara ,deep down, is still in love with Mark...

Jb and I decided to stay at Sara's just in case Mark came after her.

Jb and I have to share the guest room. Sara wont allow us to sleep on the couch so we have to sleep in the same room....on the same bed.
Fuck you Sara. Fuck you.

Jb and I were just laying next to each other staring at the ceiling. But I had something on my mind for too long.

"Jb?"

"Hmm" he replied even though his eyes were closed.

"Who was that girl you were kissing in the picture?"

I could hear Jb lightly sigh. He opened his eyes and sat up to look at me.

"That's Kaitlyn. She's my ex girlfriend." He said looking down.

"What happened?" I asked, curious as to why he still has her picture.

"She was murdered and raped in New York." He said choking out the last part.

"Oh Jb, im so sorry." I said, and I meant it.

"That's why Im here for you and Sara. I wont watch something like this go down again. Especially not to you." He said looking me in the eyes.

I dont know what got into me...

But the next thing I knew....I kissed him.
