After we were done kissing, I tangled my fingers into his nappy bed hair. 

"You start tomorrow. So Dr. Lee said you need to get a good nights sleep so you will be stronger in the morning. Therapy starts at 10:00." I turned around to leave the room. "Now go to sleep!"

"Will you atleast lay with me?" Jake asked. "Please?"

"Sorry! Gotta eat!" After I said that I danced out of the room. Hearing his faint laugh behind me. After I got in the kitchen, I turned the radio and sink on. Just to be on the safe side so he couldn't hear me. I grabbed my phone and dialed the Police Department, wondering if they had any information on the shooting. Jake had told me I didn't need to worry, but I had to. I needed to know who tried to kill him. 

"South Georgia Police Department. Darrell speaking." the officer interrupted my thoughts.

"Uhh. Yes. This is Jessie Hodges. I called a couple weeks back about the shooting at Jake Small's home.  Do y'all have any information on who did it?"

"Not at the moment, our detectives are on another case at the moment and yours will be next."

"WHAT? ARE YOU KIDDING ME? There is someone out there who shot my boyfriend and could very well be stalking and getting ready to shoot someone else! Goodbye!" I hung up the phone. I was extremely pissed. I walked back up the stairs, expecting to see Jake in the bed. But he wasn't. I heard groans coming from the bathroom. I made my way over and Jake was lying in the floor by the toilet. There was blood all over the floor.

"JAKE! What happened!?" I screamed, freaking out.

"I-I had to go to the bathroom, and.. and I heard you on the phone.. I didn't want to bother you so I got up by myself. I was doing good, until I tripped over my foot. Ahh.. My head hurts." he winced saying those last words.

"Jake! It didn't matter that I was on the phone! If you need anything, you tell me from now on! OK?" I was kindof fussing. but he needed it. "I'm calling Dr. Lee."

I followed all the instructions he gave me about bandaging Jake's arm and head. Then I crawled in bed with him. "Now WAKE. ME. UP. if you need something."

"Yea, Yea"
