Dangerous love

Chapter 4

That same day...

•Jaylen's pov•

We finally arrived at my moms. Sky dropped me off though. She said she had "business to handle" and that she would take all of my things back to our place.

I walked up the steps to my mom's door and rang the doorbell.

*Ding Dong*

A few seconds later a short brown skin woman appeared at the door.

"Jaylen!" My mom squealed as tears streamed down her face.

"Ma!" I said opening my arms for a hug.

"I missed you!" She cried into the crock of my neck. "So much!" She cried harder.

"Ma, I missed you too! Please don't cry." I begged pulling away, wiping the tears from her face.

"I can't help it." She cried harder. "You were in prison over some BS!" She yelled.

"Ma it wasn't BS, I murdered someone. Point. Blank." I stated firmly not wanting a lecture but knew that I was getting one anyway.

"Point. Blank? What the hell do you mean 'point blank' since when is it ever a good idea to MURDER someone Jaylen! That is not how I raised you at all!" She fussed.

"Ma it's over now, you have to let that go!" I yelled.

*SLAP*

Did she just...she just...

"Ow mom, what the hell was that for?!" I screamed holding my face.

"What the hell do you mean 'let it go?' That's bullshit Jaylen! What makes you think it's ok to take someone else's life and kill them in cold blood?!?" She questioned. She was beyond furious now.

"I can't tell you why because then you'll hate me forever but just know I had no choice." I said firmly.

My mothers face fell and tears filled her eyes, again.

"You always have a choice Jay." With that she turned on her heels and went to the kitchen.

"Ugh," I huffed bringing my hand to my face. "This is going to be a long day."

•Skylar's pov•

"Ugh!" I screamed once I entered the apartment. "How could I be so stupid! 'You know same old, same old' how dumb am I!" I yelled once more.

He knows somethings up. He knows me to well. Inside and out. WHAT THE HELL was I thinking?!?

*Ring Ring*

I looked down at my phone and saw that it was Jacob calling me. Great...

Sliding the answer button over, I put the phone to my ear...

"Hello?"

"Hello my love! I was just seeing how your trip was going so far? Making sure everything was ok and that you're safe!" He said instantly making my anger diffuse.

"Aww, thanks baby! I'm doing well. The plane ride was ok, there was a bit of turbulence but other than that I'm ok. It's just been a long day." I lied, I hate lying to him. I literally makes me sick to my stomach but I have no choice.

"Aww, I'm sorry love. I wish I was there, you know, so I could make you feel better." He's so corny but I love it, I love him. Why am I such a terrible person...

"Yeah, I'm sure you do." I giggled.

"No, but seriously love; do you want to talk about it?"

"No it's ok. I think I'll just run myself a nice bath and then go to bed." I lied again.

"Without me! Love, how could you?!" He asked pretending to be offended. He's so freaking cute, I swear he's going to be the death of me.

"I'm sorry baby, next time!" I giggled.

"Pinky Promise?" He whined through the phone like a five year old. Oh my heart...

"I pinky promise!" I said making kissing sounds through the phone.

"That's my girl! I have to go love, I'll call you tomorrow. I love you!" He said.

"I love you too!" I said through the phone and I meant it with every fiber of my being.

"Goodbye love."

"Bye baby."

Then he hung up the phone.

"Oh my gosh! What am I going to do!! I can't keep toying with both of their hearts but I love them too much to let them go. They both are my earth, sun and moon. I can't have both but I would be miserable without either one. I can't choose, so what do I do?" I spoke out loud.

Then my phone rung again.

"Who is it now?!" I whined.

Looking down at my screen, it was jay. Oh shit...

"Hello?" I spoke up.

"Hey babe." He sniffled

Has he been crying? I thought.

"Hey moo moo, is everything alright?" I questioned, hoping he wasn't crying.

"Not really." His voiced cracked, just like my heart.

"Moo moo, what's wrong? What happened?" I asked as I felt tears prick my eyes.

"It's ma..." He trailed off.

"What is it, what happened?" I asked not being able to handle the anticipation.

"Sh-she's disappointed in me. Sh-she hit me, she's never hit me like that before, NEVER." He stated. "I have know idea how to fix it. I don't know what to do. You two are the two most important women in my life and I let y'all down." He sobbed into the phone.

I could no longer take it. I was now sobbing too. He thinks that he's let me down but in all reality I'm doing the same thing to him. I didn't even know what to say. What do you say when you're just as equally to blame?

"Moo moo, It's going to be ok. Just go talk to her, tell her everything and be honest." I sobbed harder. Maybe I should take my own advice.

"...Ok...Thanks babe! You're the best, you always know what to say. I love you, so much!" Boy was he dead wrong...

"I love you too, moo moo! More than you can possibly imagine." I sniffled, wiping my face. "I'll come and get you in like and hour, hour and a half, okay?"

"Okay. Bye babe, love you!"

"Love you too moo moo!" After that I hung up the phone.

"Why lord, why? I already feel horrible, that just made me feel ten times worse." I cried harder just laying on the cold wooden floor, wondering where do I go from here...
