Brotherly Love [Discontinued]

Chapter 26

*Jay's POV*

My best friend.

My girlfriend's brother.

I have just beaten Jake to death.

That is what went through my mind after I tackled Jake to the ground. In reality all I did was tackle him and hold him down. Wow, he has a big problem with cursing. Britt walked over and tied Jake's hands behind his back with the ribbon that was in her hair. She can tie really good knots. I helped Britt carry Jake half way to the bathroom before she stopped.

"Go check on her," she said in a calm tone.

"But you can't carry him by yourself. Can you?"

"I'm stronger than you think." She pulled Jake up on her shoulder and started walking to the bathroom. Wow I guess she is stronger than she looks.

I went over and knelt beside Ashley. She was still weeping quietly.

"Ssh. Come here." I slowly moved her to a position I could hug her. I wrapped her in my arms and rocked back and forth a little.

"I'm sorry."

"Ssh. It's okay."

"I'm so sorry."

"Ssh."

"Tell dad I'm sorry."

"What?"Is she remembering again?

"Please tell him, I'm sorry."

"About what?"

"About being so hideous."

"Woah, hold on," I said as I stopped rocking. "You are not hideous."

"Yes I am."

"You are the most beautiful creature on this earth. You are gorgeous. No flower, animal, or person compares to your beauty," I said as I pulled back to look her in her tear filled eyes.

"But dad says,"

"Don't listen to people like dad, or anyone else who ever tells you that you're not beautiful. They are all just jealous."

"I am so useless though. I can't even defend myself. Maybe I should go die like dad said."

"Don't you dare talk like that! This world would be nothing without you. So many peoples' lives would be ruined if you died."

"Yeah right. I am so useless. Who, name one person whose life would be ruined if I died," she said in a depressed tone.

"Jay, Jake, Brittany, Joy, would you like me to go on?"

"What are you talking about, Jake? I don't know any of those people. Except for you and Joy." Oh right. She is in a flashback. Apparently one that happened before she met me or Brittany.

"Well what about our other relatives?"

"You know they are too terrified to get to know us because of dad."

"Well just listen. You will meet people and you will forever change their lives for the better. If you die, their lives will be terrible and they won't even know it."

"Still I have no real purpose."

"You know what your purpose is?"

"What?"

"To be happy."

"To be happy?"

"Yep."

"Why?"

"When you smile, the entire world stops. Everything good and bad just stop. They stare at that amazing, gorgeous smile of yours."

"Thanks Jake," she said as she hugged me really tight. "I actually feel a little better."

"Good." We sat there hugging for a little while until Ash suddenly let go.

"Umm. Not that I don't like hugs, but why are we sitting on the floor hugging?"

"You don't remember?"

"I have amnesia. I don't remember a lot of things right now."

"Nice to see you remember sarcasm."

"Haha Thanks," she said in a valley girl accent.

"Shut up."

"Fine."

"What's the last thing you remember?"

"Jake beating me like dad used to but ten times worse."

"I was kinda hoping you were in a flashback during that."

"A what?"

"Flashback. It's what I'm calling the random freak outs you have when you remember stuff."

"Okay?"

"Just go with it."

"Okay, should be easy enough I've been 'just going with' your crazy talk for years. What did I remember during this 'flashback' ?"

"Nothing important. I promise."

"Okay. I need you."

"What?"

"I need you right now. I have amnesia and Jake is being a JERK."

"I can hear you!"

"Good!"

"You deserved it!"

"Hey," I screamed.  "Don't talk to her! You aren't allowed to anymore!"

"Whatever."

I gave Ash a kiss on the head, and I walked in the bathroom and closed the door behind me.

"Britt can you go help Ash to her bed." Britt left without a word. "Now you. Shut up. Haven't you caused enough pain to your sister, emotional and physical?"

"I'm not trying to hurt her. I don't want to hurt her. I want you gone. You ruined us. Our family. Everything I worked for is gone. All because of you. Just leave."

"No. You ruined it Jake. You caused the pain. I was just trying to help. I can't stop loving your sister anymore than you can stop loving Bell."

"What?"

"I know you like her. She likes you by the way."

"Stop changing the subject."

"Whatever Jake. I'm leaving, but I am not done with you." I stood up and untied his hands. "Please stay in here, until she's ready. Don't cause anymore pain." I stood up and walked out the door. I sat next to Ash and hugged her, until Joy came in.

_________________________________________

First off, I am sorry for being so evil and making you think Jake was dead. Second off, this chapter is for people who feel like they are pointless and ugly.

Just please remember something if that is how you feel, that everyone has beauty whether it's on the inside or the outside. We all are beautiful in our own ways. Also that your point right now is to live because one day you will meet someone who you will change for the better.

Love you!♥♡♥
