Jacobs POV

this shouldn't have happened…

it wouldn't have happened…

if Dex…

I cringe my eyes shut not allowing the thoughts to flow, not allowing myself to fall into his trap.

He planned this…

and I simply was too clueless to notice.

Nicole has been in her room a lot lately. Not that I'm surprised though I am a bit concerned. Nicole doesn't even come out for dinner anymore, the adults give me a strange look when she doesn't come out but I ignore it like I always do.

Today had been diferent though, my mother actually spoke up today.

"David has been sent to a mental hospital" she said clearing her throat.

I stared at her wide eyed, David? Well he is crazy. Though it was mostly my fault I didn't feel guilty.

I nodded my head then asked to be excused. She looked pissed but still let me go. That's one of the charms of my mom, she wont force you to stay.

After putting the dishes in the sink I headed upstairs.

At the same time Nicole was heading downstairs.

"Hey" I said cooly.

She ignored me and pressed on going down the stairs. I grabbed her arm.

She turned around and gave me an annoyed look. "Let go Jacob"

"forgive me"

"no, I will never forgive you" she said all serious.

"Then I will never let go" I said simply.

She pulled and tugged until she got the nerve to punch me in the face. I stumble back a bit and let go of her arm. She gasps like she didn't mean to, she was going to help me up but thought better of it and ran down the stairs.

Damn it.

I trudge up the stairs while rubbing my eye. Even though I was shocked at what just happened I deserved it. I deserve her to punch me till my face goes white. I was an ass, an idiot too. How come I was so selfish to keep her all to myself?

I punch the wall hard causing a crease to apear on the wall. I'm so getting in trouble for that later. But I don't care, I wont care, until Nicole is mine again.

I need to do something special for her, something that she will have to forgive me, something thats better than words.

*** Nicoles POV

I gasp as I punch Jacob in the face. He stumbles back a bit and lets go of my arm. I was about to help him up but then thought he will just try to grab my arm again so I made a run for it down the stairs.

Bad idea Nicole, Bad idea.

As I came down the stairs lightning speed and turned the corner I knock Lisa down with her cup of coffee.

"Yi!" She screams in pain from the coffee spilt on her.

"Omigod I am so sorry" I said helping her up.

"You kids need to focus on where your going" Though it was just a complaint to her that was music to my ears for me.

I need to have a goal! I need to get myself focused on something that will get me going in life instead of boys, boys, boys.

"Omigod thank you Lisa!" I said hugging her, not caring about her coffee stain.

She looked at me strangley but ignored it as she walked into the kitchen to get a towel. "Kids these days" I caught her mumble.

I grab my laptop which was hidden under the blue couch, for safe keepings of course. I searched on the internet 'life changing goals for teens' I clicked on the closest one to where I live and read the description.

Teens and young adults get to participate in this wonderful life changing event. We need many volunteers to help our animal shelter since our money is running low. Please call us at 555-314-2389 if you are interested. All volunteers must show up this Saturday at 6㏂

I am so interested! I also love animals so thats a bonus! I quickly grabbed my phone that was in my pocket and dialed the number.

Also more time away from Jacob, I might ask to volunteer everyday. Ha! take that Jacob.
