STRAY CAT BLUES ♂ FP Jones♡

XV. Never Going Back Again.

Ruby's P.O.V.

The next morning, I woke up in FP's arms after a wonderful night of sex. It had been so great to be with my lover again, even though I had some suspicions of him. Those didn't matter at all this morning, as I watched the sunlight dance across his face. He looked so gorgeous, so valiant...so tough. It was odd to see his wrinkles this up close, but it just made FP look even more sexy to me. There was something about a person's ageing traits that made me love them even more. Older people always have a more interesting story to tell, and they have more love to give.

FP stirred in his sleep, and he finally opened his eyes. I smiled as I caressed his cheek. He was still groggy, and he shot a smile my way...

Suddenly, he shot up from the bed, and he started getting dressed. This was making me feel a little uneasy, and certainly, I was very much at a loss to this bizarre behaviour.

'You need to leave, right now!' FP barked, as he pulled on his jeans.

I slowly got up off the bed, and I felt like something had changed between him and I. It was almost like last night never even meant anything to my lover.

'Hurry up, little girl. Last night better stay between you and me, and you honestly better keep your mouth shut!' he had become angry, and now it was clear he was trying to send me a message.

'Take your whore shit back to California to live with your mother, or better yet, go back to college to fuck that guy!' I was grabbing my clothes and putting them on as quick as I could by this point, tears streaming down my face.

'This was never anything really serious between us, and you knew this from the beginning,' FP started, but I didn't even want to hear any more of this bullshit. How could he say this? I thought something had truly developed between us.

'You were only a game to me, a piece of ass! You're nothing but a slutty child, and I can't believe I even decided to sleep with you...' he couldn't face me anymore, and I thought I had heard him choke back a sob.

As I was about to shut the door behind me, I looked back at FP once more. He was staring at the wall, and I couldn't tell if he was going to rip into me again or just back off at this point. This heartless jerk had just broken my heart, and I didn't even understand what could have happened to cause such a violent reaction from him.

'Goodbye FP. Hope you have a good life...' I said breathlessly as I slammed the door to his trailer shut.

I ran all the way home. I slammed the door open, but I quickly discovered I was home alone. No one would be here for me, once again...

FP'S P.O.V.

When I woke up that morning to being entangled in Ruby, I was so mesmerized by her presence that I forgot what kind of shit I could bring her into. I was a criminal, and I knew I would always be one. There wasn't any way for me to get out of this life.

I barked at her to get out of bed, and that she had to leave. As I began dressing aggressively, I noticed she was making half-ass efforts to get dressed. This made me angry, but only because I didn't want anyone to find out Ruby had been here last night. All I ever wanted to do was protect and care for this dear girl.

Somehow throughout the months, I've known this girl, I couldn't help but fall in love with everything about her. Her smile, her eyes, her charm, her laugh, her sexuality...

...her lying beside me in bed, and her lovely look after a night of passionate love-making. And now, I had to kick her out of bed.

'Take your whore shit back to California to live with your mother, or better yet, go back to college to fuck that guy!' I shouted at her, as she made a huge effort to dress very quickly. Tears were streaming down her face at this point, and suddenly, I felt my heartbreak.

How could I do this to her and not tell her why I was doing it?

Because if I did, she would never want to leave me...

Ruby's P.O.V.

I started packing my things into a small suitcase, and I was trying to book a train ticket to California to my mother's. After I got all my things ready, I called her up and told her my fake story. I told her that I missed her and that I would be coming up to stay with her.

After the phone call, I made my real plans happen. In a small shoe box in my closet was a plane ticket to Germany. I was saving it for my plans for college, but by this point, I think this was a more suited situation.

I found myself pacing my room, and I almost hoped that someone would catch me before I left, but no one ever showed up. I guess dad and Dani had been too wrapped up in their own lives to notice that mine was definitely crumbling before my own eyes.

The ride to the airport was quick and easy, and the cab driver didn't bother being chatty with me. The only exception had been our greetings, and of course, my destination. It was dawning on me that for once in my life, I could happily choose the way things were going to happen for me.

I wanted to go to art school, to become a mother, and to experience real love for once in my life. I didn't want to have many flings, and to date older men was going to stop for me. I had to stop using others in my life to blame.

My own flaws were for me to discover and correct on my own. Germany would give me this life, and I could be away from everyone's judgements and decisions for me.

The plane ride was long, and I slept for a lot of it. I finally landed...
