Everything She Knew is False

Chapter 11 Tears

It was about 8:30 pm when Tamera decided to go for a jog. When walking out Tamera ran into Jared and Trent and said "I going for a jog around Central so if you need me you can find me there." Jared made an attempt to follow her but Trent stopped him and let Tamera walk out. Tamera put her head phones and out on Linkin Park for her jog. About 20 minutes into her jog she noticed she was being followed by five dark figures. Tamera started to pick up her pace as did the figures following. She then heard a familiar voice call out to her and say "Hey Little Bitch, where are you running to?" It was Claire and some of her other guy friends with evil grins on their faces.

"What do you want?" Tamera said as she stopped jogging to face them. "We want you to pay for embarrassing me in front of everyone and to make sure that you know that Jared is mine and mine alone." Claire said with a sneer. "Get her!" With that the four guys with Claire ran at Tamera. Tamera than began to sprint away but the other guys were to fast and had already caught up with her and grabbed her buy her shirt which caused her shirt to tear off leaving her in her sports bra. She finally broke free from their grasp and started running again.

She finally lost them or so she thought when they jumped her around a corner. Everything around Tamera started to go blurry and all she could hear was the laughing of the four guys and Claire. The pain started to grow through her whole body as their kicks and jabs landed on her. Suddenly she the kicks and jabs stopped as she saw a blurred figure take down the four guys in an instant. "Leave her alone!" Yelled the figure at Claire and the guys. The voice belonged to Jared. "WHAT!?! What the hell, Jared? She had it coming and you know it!" Claire yelled at Jared. "She didn't deserve a damn thing." Jared yelled back.

Jared then turned and picked up Tamera who was still laying on the ground in her sweat pants and sports bra. After he picked her up he took her to his car and put her in his truck. Once in the driver's seat he started to drive. Tamera kept telling herself inside not to cry but after all the years of not crying she couldn't help herself. Jared looked at Tamera then quickly looked away when he noticed she was crying. It wasn't until Jared pulled into a driveway that she noticed that they were at Jared's house.

Jared got out of the truck and picked up Tamera out of the truck and took her inside. He took her upstairs to the bathroom and set her on the counter. He then checked her wounds to make sure nothing wasn't too bad. After he was done he then said "You should probably take a shower. I'll get you one of my smaller sweat shirts to wear." Tamera just nodded in response. Jared then left to get a sweat shirt for Tamera.

After Tamera was done taking a shower she out her sweat pants and Jared's sweat shirt that was a big on her. She went down stairs and sat in the middle of the couch and hugged her knees to her chest. Jared then came out of the kitchen with a mug of her favorite raspberry tea. "Do you want a drink?" Jared asked holding the mug out. Tamera simply shook her head then Jared set the mug down and sat next to her. Jared then put his hands around her and held her close the two of them stayed like that for about a half hour.

"I know what will cheer you up." Jared said getting up from the couch. He then brought in a bunch of pillows and blankets and laid them on the floor in front of the TV. He then put in Spirited Away one of Tamera's favorite anime movies. Tamera then smiled at  him and laid on the floor. Jared then laid next to her and took her in his arms. Through the whole movie neither of them said a word instead they fell asleep watching the movie.
