Karma (A Mindless Behavior Story)

Surprising

Karma's POV

So now that Jacob made it official between us he has definitely changed. And he changed for the better. Whenever someone tries to flirt he tells them to go ask me if it's alright. It's funny seeing the girl's faces turn bright red because they're embarrassed. Lane grills me in the halls but I don't care. I'm on cloud 9 right now and that's because of one person: Jacob.

"Hey beautiful, what's up?" Jacob asked, sitting down at the lunch table.

"Nothing much handsome. How do you think you did on that test?"

"Oh yeah... That... I don't think I did too well." He mumbled.

"Jacob... You know you can't afford to fail anymore tests. I'll tutor you."

"Nah.. I'll get distracted. I need a nigga to tutor me."

"Fine, but I'll be close so I know you won't goof off."

"Hey.. Um.. Karma.." A random voice said.

Both Jacob and I looked up from our conversation to see Chresanto scratching his neck.

"What?" Jacob asked for me.

"We were supposed to study today..." He said shyly, looking down.

"Who made these plans? Cause I surely don't remember this" I asked.

"Oh.. Um... Can I just talk to you for a minute." He asked, looking more at Jacob than I.

"Go ahead babe, but just know I have eyes all around Chres, and you already witnessed that."

I got up and followed Chresanto to the yard.

"What do you want? I don't have all day."

"I want you, K. I know I fucked up but still... I need another chance."

"No thanks, I already moved on. You had your chance and you fucked it up. Go talk to Lane or something." I said trying to walk away, but then he grabbed me.

"You're not leaving me Karma."

"Let go of my arm, you're hurting me." I groaned, pulling away. Then I felt a punch.

"I said no!" Chresanto cried out. I was in complete shock.
I scooted over and started to cry. I felt the blood drip from my eyebrow. Then Jacob came.

There were no words. It was literally like an action movie. Jacob just beating his ass. I was too shocked to move or to stop him.

"Don't you ever put your hands on her again! Do you hear me?" Jacob asked, standing over Chresanto.

"Yes.. I'm so sorry K.." Chres mumbled out.

Jacob picked me up and carried me to his car.

"I'm not letting you finish the rest of the day looking like that. I'm taking you to my place."

I just nodded my head. I was getting tired and I was still crying.

"Stop crying baby girl, please stop." Jacob pleaded. He looked at my face before he started driving and wiped my tears. "Still gorgeous."

He started the car and drove me to his house. I wanted to sleep so bad but I knew I wasn't supposed to. We arrived to his house and he carried me out and unlocked the door. He then laid me on the couch.

"I'll be right back. Don't move beautiful."
I just nodded. About five minutes later he came back with an ice pack, a rag, and some alcohol.

"This might hurt a bit, but it'll help." He said, pouring the alcohol on the rag. He started to clean my cut. I started groaning at the pain.

"All done... Hold this on your eye... Do you want something to eat or drink?"

"Can you get me some boneless wings.. Please.."

"Anything for you princess. But while I'm gone you can't move. I'll be right back. Oh and keep your phone by you." He said, kissing my forehead. "You know where everything is. But try not to strain yourself." He continued, passing me the remote. He then left.

I stood up and walked to the bathroom. I looked in the mirror shocked. I had a black eye and the cut was kinda big. I looked horrible. I started to cry. Then my phone started ringing.

"You look beautiful. Stop crying and lay back down please."

"How'd you know I was up and crying?"

"I know you. I'll be back in 10 minutes. Lay back down please." He hung up.

I went back to the couch and grabbed a spare blanket. I laid back and drifted off to sleep.
