My First & Last

chapter 19

Jack "pov"

After rose left my office I was now waiting nervously for what the investigator frank is about to say, last time we talked he said he was going to search after her greedy aunt

"Mr. Robbins, how have you been?" frank asked me taking a seat on one of the chairs in front of my desk
"good, you..?" I replied shortly like always waiting for him to hit to the point, I need to know anything I could get about her aunt
"good" frank replied and I was waiting for him to start spilling everything out patiently and he understood and nodded his head
"sir I've been digging about her aunt mrs.lila Brice and found out that she's a widow with one daughter Nora, who's twenty three years old she works as a model.. Anyway, after her husband died he left her nothing but a lot of debts to pay, she moved to live in Paris for the past ten years" frank says in firm tone and I was thinking so that's way she's after rose, but if it's about paying her debts, I would gladly do it for her and give her and her daughter enough money to live in luxury for the rest of their lives if they just leave rose alone, I don't care about them killing my dad or rose's parents if they just left her alone
"Sir after following her actions for the past weeks I found out that she booked two tickets to new york" frank says looking at my reaction
"When?" I asked not surprised,I expected them to show their faces by now
"In three days, I think they are staying here for good" frank said and I could feel he was feeling disgusted by them too, I mean who would hurt his own family for money, kill innocent people along

I asked frank to keep an eye on them and to report me if anything new happened before he left
I was sitting on my chair working on some papers for the next meeting with Chris
I tried to keep my distance from rose but I couldn't, the more I try to stay away from her the more I wanted to be with her
Maybe chris is right, maybe her aunt needs to know that there is someone here to protect rose
That she's not alone
At the moment I really don't care what her aunt or anyone thinks, I just want to be with her and hold her in my arms and feel her soft moist lips to touch her and hear her voice, I want her to be mine only and I want to grow old with her, she's the one and am not giving her to anybody no matter what ... even if that costs me everything even my life

When I saw Jake I felt anger through my body, the way he was hugging her and kissing her cheek the way he was flirting with her, I didn't like the idea of her living with him and being this close every day, I mean I know he's like her younger brother but still he is a man after all
But I knew he wouldn't let anything bad happen to her when she's with him, he's like sam, I guess both of them are alike when it comes to rose, am glad she have both of them with ross and tina to take care of her all this time, am happy she was surrounded by a family after she lost hers

It's nine thirty and she's still out with him, okay little brother or whatever it's getting late and he's a man, I talked with jake telling him to take her home or am going to come myself, that man only chuckled! the nerve of him, I could tell he was enjoying this, I was like super angry but before I could say anything rose would make me regret the next day he said it's okay and he's taking her home right now and hang up after saying goodnight not waiting for my reply, I can't say anything if he's taking her home, I didn't need any other argument with anyone else, my head is about to explode from Chris's whining about what to do with nadine in their next date, he really likes her a lot but that doesn't mean am going to put up with this until I die because am sure he won't stop acting like this even after they have kids

After three hours of listening to chris he simply thought of changing the subject to me and rose, he said that I should tell her about me being jack and changing my last name and I think he's right, I mean there is no reason for me to hide it from her anymore and I want her to know that I didn't forget about her and I still care about her, am going to tell her everything after the party tomorrow, I still feel so happy every time I see her wearing the same necklace I gave her, t looked perfect on her.... after that Chris showered me with question like what do you feel when she's finally in your arms and ofcourse am not going to talk about this with him, god sometimes I feel like he's a teenage girl, so I kicked him out
