The Gangleader's Girl

Chapter Sixteen

Mary: Two months and a couple days- November 23rd

It's fall break right now. I ended up not going to school like Jash said, I'll be going next month though. Yay, I can't wait for the teachers to explode me with homework.

It's almost Thanksgiving, it's actually tomorrow. I never really celebrated holidays. Not just because I didn't have any family around, it's because I lost the spark to do anything.

I lost my mom, my aunty, then my father made me move to America, Sebastian ruined my life, and the girls and Travis had their own families to be with. I had no one around me. I just stayed home, studied or read, and cooked for myself. After highschool, I just want to go to college, get a job, and finish my life. I don't plan on doing anything else other then those three things. But I'm not sure if I can do those three anymore, since I met Jash and the boys. They might keep me in their lives for a while and then they might let me free. I don't know, but if they kill Ryan then I want them all to leave me alone.

I was sitting outside on the Gang's house balcony, it's supposed to snow tonight. So I'm enjoying the weather while it lasts. I love autumn. The leaves all around, it's not hot nor is it cold, I especially love the sky. Sure it's not blue like in the summer time or spring time, but I just like how the clouds cover the sun.

"Mary? Where are you?" Jash called out for me. I turned around.

"Out here." I told him and he came outside. Jash rubbed his arms and looked at me.

"Aren't you cold out here?" I shook my head.

"I've gotten used to the cold weather. I love it out here-" Jash threw his jacket on top of my head.

"Atleast wear a coat so you don't get a cold." I blushed under his jacket and I put it on. He sat next to me and held my hand.

"What are you doing for Thanksgiving tomorrow?"

"Stay home and cook." I shrugged and Jash looked at me.

"You can stay here with me, I don't do anything for Thanksgiving. Jada is here too so she can stay with us also." I smiled but frowned.

"I just really want to be alone for Thanksgiving Jash. I'm sorry but I just do." He sighed and held my hand to his lips. I had a feeling he was still going to do something. He always does.

"We should go inside." He said as he stood up, still holding my hand. I looked at him.

"Jash, I have a question. I already know you're going to make me do something with you for Thanksgiving, but if we do, can we go to my house? I haven't been there in a while and I need to pay rent."

Jash smiled and pulled me up out of my chair and close to him.

"We can do that if you want, we can even go tonight if you'd like." I smiled wide and nodded. Jash picked me up carried me inside. You know how Jash was an asshole when we first met? He's changed. I mean, when I'm around Gunner his light switch turns on in his mind. Or when Ryan calls him he also gets pissed.

But around me he is calm. Sure we fight sometimes, but usually he is calm.

When we got inside, Mark and Arabelle were making out on the couch.

"Gah come on guys! Go get a room!" Jash yelled as he covered my eyes. I laughed. Not like the first time I've seen Arabelle and Mark kissing. They sat up and Mark rolled his eyes.

"It's not like you or Mary have never kissed before." I blushed red and looked at Jash. You probably can't tell from far away, but up close he was blushing also. I smiled a bit and Jash carried me upstairs into his room. He sat me on his bed and grabbed his phone.
