Chapter Two

Jason's Point of view//

After about a thirty minute car ride of silence, I pulled up at the warehouse. I looked over at Haven and smiled slightly. She had her head leaned against the window and was sleeping peacefully. She's the most beautiful girl in the world, and I'd give her anything to be able to call her mine. No, I thought to myself. No matter how much I like Haven, it would never work. Jason McCann doesn't do relationships. 

I reached over and kissed her forehead and shook her gently, whispering in her ear, "Baby girl, wake up... We're here." Her eyes opened slightly, looking at me. "We're at the warehouse, Have. I don't wanna leave you out here by yourself." She nodded and rubbed her eyes.

"Okay."

I got out of the car and walked over to her side, opening the door for her. She smiled slightly and I took her hand in mine and closed the door, walking inside. Alex and Jonah were sitting on the couch, watching some sports game, and Leanne was sitting at the kitchen table on her laptop. "Aye, guys," I said to get their attention. Leanne cleared her throat.

"Um."

"Sorry, Anne," I said. "Guys and girl." I rolled my eyes and pulled Haven slightly closer to me. 

"You're never going to guess who we ran into earlier," Jonah spoke up. 

I looked at him curiously, raising my eyebrow. "Who?" I questioned. 

He chewed on his lip before finally answering: "Forbes."

I growled and Haven whimpered quietly, hiding her face in my shoulder. "Forbes? Mark Forbes?" I snarled and sat down on the loveseat, pulling Haven on my lap. "You mean that asshole that fucking killed Jazzy and tried to..." I hesitated, stopping myself before continuing, "...rape Haven?" I felt Haven tense up so I held her closer, stroking her hair.

Jonah nodded slowly. "Yeah. We were meeting up with someone to get some money from a job that we did and he showed up. He asked where you were, and we told him that we didn't know."

"Is that all?"

"No. He wants to um... He wants to meet up tonight to discuss some business and he's..." He trailed off as I glared at him.

"He's what?" I growled.

"He's coming here, Jason."

I put Haven on the couch and stood up, walking over to Jonah and jerked him up off the couch by the colar of his shirt. "You're going to have the guy that fucking killed my sister and tried raping my girl come here?! Fuck no, Daniels! Call him and tell him no!"

He snarled and jerked away from me, hitting me square in the jaw. "Don't fucking touch me, McCann. You know this gang comes first before any stupid girl."

I heard Haven whimper quietly and I looked behind me to see her holding back tears. I clenched my jaw and looked back at Jonah, pushing him against the wall. "Some stupid girl? That "stupid girl" has got this gang out of a lot of fucking trouble, and saved your ass when I wasn't there to. Don't fucking talk about Haven like that again, or I swear to God, you'll wish you were dead." I hit him in the gut with the end of my gun and he groaned.

Haven quickly got up and ran over to me, pulling me back. "Jason, it's okay... it's fine." I felt her small arms clinging to my arm and I pulled away from Jonah, glaring at him. He brushed himself off and got up, walking to the kitchen. 

I turned around and stared down at Haven, relaxing slightly. Her big, brown eyes were staring up at me, glistening with tears. I pulled her into my arms and she buried her face in my chest. "I love you so much, baby girl..."

"I love you, too, Jase. I love you so much." She played with my shirt and I smiled slightly. When she's in my arms, everything is better. I don't have a care in the world, and she's all that I care about.  

I was interrupted from my thoughts by Alex: "Well we're just gonna leave you alone with your girl." I looked up to see him smirking at me so I shot a glare at him. Haven giggled quietly and looked up at me.

"Yeah... Jase, what did you mean by that?" she asked softly. I bit my lip, gulping. I didn't even know what to say.
