Eleven, Eleven || j.s

eight ; that's fucked up, man

I'm not any kind of know-it-all.
But, if anyone saw what I saw.

They'd tell the damn police.

Hell, they'd call 911.

But, I'm not about that life.

Because, you know what?

Every secret comes out eventually.

And, meanwhile, when he isn't gone.

I can know even more. I mean...

I'm the only one who can figure it out, right?

I slowly help Jacob up. He grunts with every stretch of his muscles, his wounds obviously stung his nerves.

"Are you okay?" I ask as he nods, "Ye–No. I'm...fine."

"And, I knew you were here." A voice states as a lump in my throat formed.

Jacob's father had a voice of a monster, and he was.

I looked at him as I gave a sarcastic smile to him, "Don't touch her." Jacob says as he goes in front of me.

"You want a beat—"

"I mean, you can't hurt me. And, if you do what I say, I won't tell the police about what I know." I smile, "And, what I could know."

He started walking around with his hands on his temples, "Shit, shit!" He shouts and trudges away.

Jacob sits on the ground as he sighed, his face in his hands, "Jacob, are you okay?"

"No, I-I'm not."

"Oh, well. Yeah. Shit, okay. That was quite dumb of me to s—" I was cut off by his small laughter as he smiles at me, "You know how to make me smile, don't you? Even when you're just being you."

"Jacob, you're cuh-raaazy." I smile as he chuckles, "You know, my wounds hurt a lot right?"

"Not as much as seeing you getting hurt." I state as he scoots closer to me but I move back as my back feels the bark of a nearby tree, I look at his eyes.

Searching for lies.

None.

"Don't move away." He says, "I know you still have feelings for me."

"And, how are you so sure?" I ask.

"Because I wouldn't see that fast breathing and shine in your eyes when I do this..." He says as his lips connect with mine.

It was too soon.

Yet, so late.

We've been friends for a long time, became enemies for a long time. And, we're turning into something else.

Everything around me was silent.

I don't know if I was crazy to say that it felt as if it were just the both of us, our lips fit perfectly, like the curves and edges of our hands as his slowly intwine in mine.

My breath quickened, I could feel my heart wanting hold my lungs because I could feel nothing but the falling of my love...

for my best friend.

for my eleven, eleven wish.

for my enemy.

for Jacob.

He parts away causing me to move forward a bit, wanting more. But, if I didn't stop and go back for more, I wouldn't make my plan work.

But, who knows?

I knew I wanted this plan to be gone.

But, remembering just how much he treated me just to be with his so-called fans and become famous—

Ugh, it makes me feel weird in my stomach.

He looks at me as I gave a fake smile, I knew he saw right through me. I was falling for him, but maybe this was one-sided?

"Am I supposed to feel anything?" I ask as he rolls his eyes and chuckles, "I hate you."

You know, thinking about it— Jacob's father was dumb enough to think that a kid like me would be able to tell the police without evidence.

So, maybe it's a good thing to use it against him so he wouldn't get hurt.

We walked back to camp. It felt as if everyone was staring at us, right here, right now.

I felt... weird.

I felt as if I was just some girl who was famous for doing something bad.

Until someone tackled me, "So, beating the shit out of someone—"

Everything went silent.

A fan of Jacob's.

Oh, boy. If she knew what I could do.

Jacob was about to pull her off of me, knowing that if she pissed me off even more. I would break her neck.

"Woah, woah, woah. Just...take it easy. Okay? Okay." He says as I slowly get up, dusting myself.

I cracked my knuckles as I look at her. And, she looked at me, her eyes were clearly mad at me.

"You're such a scaredy cat." She states.

I look at her and tilt my head. The word scaredy cat turned slow motion for me.

Oh. No. She. Didn't.

"What did you just call me?" I ask as she was about to repeat it again.

I tackled her this time as I started to pull her hair and slap her in the face. She was scratching my arm until someone pulled me away from her.

A strong pair of arms around my torso as I kicked my legs in the air, "Woah there. Chill out, Ma." I heard Geo's voice state as Jacob helps the girl to her feet.

"I'm going to kill her!" I exclaim.

"That's fucked up, Ma." Geo chuckles.
