Jake

I had a little work to do at the warehouse and then I could go and see Abigail. I don't even know why I want rather need to see her. I think about er night and day. There isn't a minute I don't think her and her perfect hair that flows down to the middle of her back. Or how her eyes sparkle just right in the sun and I get lost in them. Or that smile, that damn smile, I love it.

I'm starting to like her more and more and that scares me. I do dangerous things for a job and I don't want her caught up in this, I can't let her get hurt because of me.

I walk into the shop and no ones there so I go straight to my office and start working on some of the drug shipments . I finally finished and it's around 4:00, Abigail only has 3 more hours of work left to do, so I decided to drive over and go hang out there for a while.

I walk in the shop and don't see her at the cashier so I look around and spot Carl, talking to another customer and I walked up to them.

"Excuse me, Carl, have you seen Abigail?" I ask politely.

"She left about 30 minutes ago, she walked in this morning so happy but then a man walked out and she looked like she seen a ghost or something. She then grabbed her stuff and told me she had to leave." He said and I started to get angry.

Who the fuck made her feel that way?

Who was the man?

***
I finally made it to Abigail house, before I came here, I went to the gym to work out and get my anger out before I yelled at her. It was about 8:45 when I knocked on her door and I could hear the TV on and little movement. I then heard none and decided to open the door.

"Abigail, what the fuck? Where were you? Why didn't you open the door?" I roared at her, I didn't want to sound angry but I am.She shrugged and walked back to the couch and sat down.

"Abigail, answer me." I said.

"I wasn't feeling well and I went home." She said and I knew that was bullshit.

"Really? Carl said you looked really happy today but after a customer left, your entire mood changed, so who was the customer?" I said, more angrier.

"Uhh, I..umm." She looked like she was trying to come up with a lie and that fueled my anger.

"What are you hiding from me?" I yelled and that made her glare at me and she stood up and poked my chest.

"You want to talk about how I'm hiding shit from you? You're not a open book, Jake. You don't tell me shit when I ask. You hide almost everything from me, except for the fact that your mom died, which I'm so sorry. I know how it feels to lose a parent, Jake. But don't start with me about secrets because who got a bunch of your own." She screamed at him and walked over to her door and pointed outside, ushering for me to leave.

"Abigail, I'm not leaving. I have my secrets so I can protect you, you have to understand that." I said softly and she looked angrier.

"Maybe that's why I'm keeping secrets too. Or maybe the fact that I may like you but I barely know you, and don't trust you enough to tell you about my past. Now, get the fuck out." She yelled as a tear slid down her face.

"Abigail, p-." I went to stay but was cut off.

"Get. The. Fuck. Out. Jake." She yelled and finally I stormed out of the house and she slammed the door. I was angry, at her but more at myself. Why did I have to get all fucking angry. One thing was for sure, I wasn't going to leave. I walked to my car and waited for me too calm down before I went back in the house.

***
After about 10 minutes I decided I was calm enough and went to get out but a man walked out her house with a smile on his face. I punched my car and he looked up at me and smiled again and I was done. I should just go up to him and beat him into a bloody pulp, but instead I stormed in her house and into her bedroom where she was on her bed, with her head in her hands.

"Who the fuck was he?" I roared at her and she flinched but I didn't care, I was fuming and I knew she knew how angry I was.

"Abigail, answer me." I yelled again and she looked up at me with watery eyes.

No. Don't cry, I didn't mean to make her cry.

"Jake, I..." she croaked out and started to cry even more. My anger was soon replaced with empathy. I walked over to her and picked her up and sat her in my lap and she rested her head on my shoulder.

"Shh..I'm so sorry for storming in here like an idiot. I shouldn't act like this, we're not even dating, we're just friends but I am so protective over you and it hurts to see you cry or yell at me like you hate me." I say to her and she nods and I kiss her forehead.

"He," she breathed and then what she said next made me tense up and I was now angry, "He abused me and even tried to kill me." I was now shaking with anger. I should of beat his ass when I saw him. She was now sobbing and I pulled her closer to me and held her tighter. She was not going to be alone, ever again.

She's mine, I will protect her no matter what and from anyone.
