The last of them

Chapter 7 (after-all)

Jase then walked over to me. As I starred him in the eyes, he was looking down.

Jase? What are we suppose to do? I asked while whispering.

We do nothing. We stay here and be quite and pray to God that no one finds us. He said this as if he were angry.

Jase?! I said in a normal tone voice.

Shhh!!... he said quickly.

Jase? I said whispering this time. My parents are down there, do you just expect me to leave them.? I said angrily

Isn't that what you told and expected me to do with my father? He said

Jase are you seriously asking me that right now? I said offended

Yes, I am. He said giving me a sickly and disgusted look.

Well at least I love my parents and they don't drink and beat me! I said

He stood up looking down at me as if I was someone he hated and despised of. I couldn't believe what I had just said to him. I know he would probably never forgive me this time. And the situation we were in right now, wasn't the best time for arguing either. It could be our life, if one of us were too loud or got out of hand. But I guess I kind of already was out of hand. It's just a matter of fact of what Jase might do now.

Jase, I'm sorry I didn't mean it. I pleaded while putting the leash I made for Chase on him and slipping the handle part under the table leg.

Of course you meant it. Why else would you continue to say it? He may have been a little messed up and fucked up in life a little. But that doesn't define him and make him a bad person. He just needed help. And I do love him, I can't believe you said I didn't. He said.

I walked to the window, and I saw fire and a lot of our people in a line on their knees. Crying and begging for their lives and others. Some of them were bleeding. I saw my mom and dad, in which they were untouched sitting in chairs in the sand watching. I was confused on why they looked chill. These people were technically family and they were just sitting there. I am so confused. There not even tied down to the chairs. What are they doing?
Jase came to the window once he saw me. He glanced down real quick then pulled me away from the window. Once I was away from it he walked away from me again. I wanted to tell him what I just saw, but I knew he wouldn't listen. He probably never will again. He probably hates me now, but I can't live with that.

Are you crazy Remi? Now what if someone saw you, eh? What then? He said looking at me.

Would you even care? Honestly Jase, would you? After everything I've put you through and said? It would probably be best if they found me and took me away. It would be best for you for goodness sake. You wouldn't have to put up with my bull anymore. I said sortof feeling like he was going to agree

Yes I would care. Why are you even stating that as a question? And if they ever took you, that's probably how this war will all begin. And I sometimes like your bull even though it's hurtful sometimes. He said smiling

I couldn't smile back. I was still scared to death of what was going on outside. It was weird how no one found us yet. Not that I wanted someone to, but still. Jase seemed better now, but only because he was cooling down.

I'm sorry, I truly didn't mean it. When I'm mad I tend to say things that I know will hurt others. But that doesn't mean that I mean it all the time. I said, trying to return his smile he gave me earlier.

You don't have to put a happy face on for me. He said

I didn't say anything else. I just walked to the bed and sat down. I wasn't planning on going to bed at the moment because I was tired. Neither one of us slept yet.

Rem? Sleep, ill wake you if I need you. He said while tucking me in and kissing my forehead.

I didn't respond back. I just fell asleep.
