I just stood there with Jack holding onto my arm, looking at the two traitors. Disgusted. That's what I was. "Rebecca..." Lucy finally spoke. "Our friendship is over Lucy." I groaned and sighed. Tears fell down Lucy's face, "PLEASE." She wailed. "GET OUT, BOTH OF YOU NOW!" I shouted. Both of them jumped in shock and ran out the door. I felt Jack put his hand on my shoulder, "Bec you okay." He asked, worried. "I'm fine." I muttered and walked down the hall before I walked to his bedroom. I wanted to be alone right now, he knew that. I needed a nap, tomorrow was Monday so I would settle in then. I slept through the rest of the day and night. Jack's POV I was shocked at what Bec said to Alec and Lucy back there. She must have so much pain and anger built up in side of her, she probably needs to get that out. That's why tomorrow I'm taking her to the gun range, where she get all of that out. I walk into my bedroom ten minutes after she stormed in, to find her fast asleep. I slip in besides her and slide my arm around her waist. She soon cuddles into my chest, bliss. .................... I wake up in the middle of the night to her talking in her sleep, I feel her face, flowing tears. Then I listen to what she's saying. "Please, stop don't hurt me. PLEASE. She wept. My heart broke, she was abused... I tightened my grip against her waist and brought her close. I whispered to her, "It's okay angel, I'm here." She stopped talking and snuggled against me and fell back into deep sleep. She must feel safe with me... ........................ Becca's POV I woke snuggled against Jake's chest... cozy, safe. I blush as I look at his peaceful sleeping face. I've never noticed how truly handsome he is. Flowing jet black hair... chocolate brown eyes. Muscular body, perfect face. Perfection. Even better than Alec's looks, much better really. I fall backwards out of bed when his eyes suddenly shoot open. He jumps up and looks over the side of the bed. "Admiring the view huh angel?" He flirted. Making me blush as red as a tomato. "N-no." I stammer. Jack winks and helps me up. "Sure angel." God, I love when he calls me angel. Although I'm from from one. ........................ I walk over to where Jack is sitting on the bed and sit sideways on his lap. And whisper in his ear. "Admiring the view huh Mr. Bad boy?" I look at him and see that he is... blushing! "I got the bad boy to blush!" "Where's my trophy!" I exclaim. Jack rolls his eyes and puts his arm around my neck. I smirk as he looks at my face, like he's taking in every single detail. "Angel?" He asks. "Yes?" I reply. "I'm going to kiss you okay?" He speaks, making me blush even more. "Okay." I whisper. ................... We lean in and the sparks fly. Our tongues intertwine and it's pure bliss. We pull away finally, breathless. "Promise I'll always be your angel?" I say, asking. "Always." He whispers, rubbing his thumb on my cheek. Looking into my eyes. "Change into some active clothing, I'm taking you somewhere." He insisted. I nod as he gets up and leaves the room, in only his boxers. .......... I change into what Jack told me to and then wait for him to get changed. He only puts a pair of shorts on, leaving his abs for all to see. He must work out, a lot. .......... We get in his truck and drive for about fifteen minutes out of the city until we come to this place with the word "Range" written on the top. We get in and I gasp... guns.. a gun range. "Calm down princess." Jack whispers into my ear. Calming me down. Another nickname.. great. I do as he says. "This will help you get your emotions out." He put a pistol in my hand and loaded it for me. He pointed at the trigger, "Only touch this if your ready to fire." He explained. I've seen people killed with these things, I don't know if I'm ready to use one. But I will try I guess. ........... I aimed at the target, closed one eye, and shot. Bullseye. "Holy crap Bec." Jack exclaimed, quite surprised. After I shoot a few rounds and get mostly bullseyes we decide to leave to get lunch. A month later, May 1948 Jack and I as super close now, we still live together. We go to the shooting range almost everyday. He told me the truth about what he does for a living, selling drugs. I was upset at first but I understand, he is going to college at Harvard in the fall. I don't know what I'm planning to do yet but I know I want him in my life. Tonight he said he's taking me out somewhere, so I'm wearing a cute black and white checkered dress. I'm also going to curl my hair and wear a nice amount of makeup. I came out of the bathroom and gasped at what Jack was wearing, gosh he looked good...

Hair slicked back, hot leather jacket that fit him perfectly. Black jeans, which were not seem often... hot. We kind of matched, both wearing black and a bit of white. "Wow Jack." I gulped. He winked, "You look gorgeous angel." He flirted. I laughed and took his arm as we walked to the parking lot. Then hopped on his motorcycle. "Jack..." I mumbled as I hesitated getting on. "Do you trust me Bec?" He asked. I nodded. "Then hop on." He insisted. I hopped on and held on to him tight. We sped off through the city, our hair flowing in the wind. I never felt so alive. We drove for about an hour so we got away from all the big city traffic. We were alone out in nature. Jack had me stay on the motorcycle for about ten minutes before he came back to get me. After that he had me walk for about three minutes until we came to a beach, a marvelous beach with a dinner for two set up.

He had set up candles around and on the table, creating a very romantic environment. "Oh Jack.. it's perfect." I gushed. Jack nodded, "Anything for you angel." He replied. He lifted the cover on the plate and revealed a steak, that looked so good... I gazed in amazement. He did all of this for me... wow. We ate and drank some wine, even though I shouldn't. "Bec you look so gorgeous, just like you always do." He said, smirking. Then he put his hand of mine and looked into my hazel eyes. "Becca, my sweet angel, will you be my girlfriend?" He asked as he gazed deep into my eyes. "Of course Mr.Bad boy." I flirtatiously spoke, while smirking. We then dove deep into a kiss, our tongues intertwining. He was an amazing kisser. I think I've found love again.
