Hey guys, uploaded a picture of jessica on the side :)
Chapter 5
We walked upstairs to a huge bedroom; she sat me down and examined my bandages. I glanced at her,
“So, are you Tyler’s fiancé?” I asked
She looked up at me and smiled “yes I am, oh my gosh I’m so sorry I didn’t even ask for your name”.
“It’s fine its not like we had the meeting I would have liked to have” I said feeling annoyed at Tyler again “my names Alice, I’m guessing your Jessica” I asked
“Your Alice? Tyler talks about you a lot” she smiled “you mean a lot to him” and then she frowned “what did you do that set him off?”
I told her about the argument we had leaving out his eyes changing colors and she sat silently until I finished and was almost in tears with the emotionally exhausting day I had.
“Wow, I’m so sorry he said that stuff about your parents. That’s not like him I’m sure he didn’t mean it he was probably worried about your safety and he’s been under a lot of pressure at his job, he just got uh… I guess you could say promoted to the top and he’s still trying to get used to all the stress” she said sighing “so, you and Eric?” she grinned
I felt my cheeks redden a bit “its not like that, h-he’s just helping me with the mortgage and safety” I said defending myself
She laughed, “Oh come on girl I wont tell Tyler anyway I think its good. I mean I remember when I first met Tyler.” she said and went into thought but I had a feeling it wasn’t about her and Tyler by the way she asked, “How does he make you feel when he’s around you?”
I was confused “I uhm…I don’t know, I haven’t been around him much yet really I feel safe I guess” I said remembering the calming feeling I had when I was in his arms.
“Well I think you’re making a great decision and thanks for letting me in… Its been awhile since I’ve had any female around other then Tyler’s mother, when I moved here I lost most of my friends, um this might be weird to ask but would you want to be my brides maid?” she asked biting her lip
I smiled, I really like her I’m glad she’s getting married to Tyler and I understand the feeling “of course but you’ll have to sneak me in because Tyler never invited me” I said
She frowned “he wanted to invite you but right as we made it official he called your parents because he didn’t know your number but they said you didn’t need to come” she said and I frowned. My parents wouldn’t say stuff like that…would they?
Right then Eric walked in “um your aunt called and she said the security guy is waiting for us” he said and I got up and smiled at Jessica
“Thanks for the talk” I said and got up.
“No problem” she said with a huge grin on her face
I walked down the stairs and Tyler was nowhere to be seen
“Will you be ok here alone?” Eric asked Jessica
“Yeah ill be fine” she laughed “now run along,” she said as she shooed us out of the house.
We walked through the forest and he asked “is it ok if I drop my stuff off later? Because I didn’t have much time with… with...” he said trailing off and I remembered the scene with Tyler
“Yeah that’s fine, I’m sorry about that by the way,” I said looking down
“Why are you sorry? It’s not your fault,” he said
“Yeah it is, its my fault he was yelling and he was mad. If I hadn’t made him so mad then maybe he wouldn’t have-”
“No it wasn’t your fault he’s been under a lot of pressure and he didn’t like what your parents did to you and just wants to protect you” he said
“Why didn’t he like my parents?” I asked
“Um, that’s a question for another time. One reason was how they controlled your life,” he said
I laughed “that’s hypocritical that’s what he just tried to do”
He sighed “yeah” then it was silent for a moment
“What things do you need to get” I asked
“Well I have all my clothes packed, I just have my guitar and my music” he said
“What type of music?” I asked
He shrugged “anything really, mostly rock” I nodded and was going to ask more when I saw my house and walked up to it and opened the back door and saw my house had been clean. Did we even call the police? Maybe Tyler did. I just shrugged it off and a few minutes later after Eric and I checked out the house. I heard a knock on the front door I looked through the peephole and saw a guy standing in a dark blue jumpsuit with messy brown hair. He looked really familiar as well. I opened the door “hello” I said as he looked up and smiled and then stopped
“Alice?” he asked
“Excuse me?” I said confused
“Its me, Jensen” he said pointing to himself as I stood there confused “we used to go to school together before you moved, we were friends” he said
It all came rushing back to me “oh my gosh, Jensen!” I said and hugged him “I’m so sorry! You’ve changed so much!” I said and hugged him more, he smiled “what’s been going on? When’d you get back?” he asked “wait this isn’t your house is it? I heard there was a bad break in” he frowned
“Um, I got here yesterday and yeah this is my house. It got broken into this morning with me in it” I said sobering up
“Oh my god!” he said, “Are you-”
“She’s fine” said a voice from behind me and I turned around to see Eric engaging in a stare down with Jensen
