Perks of being a Criminal

Chapter 7

Jason's P.O.V

I woke up and I was laying on a bed. It was a little dark and just enough light for me to see around the room. There was 3 suit cases in the corner of the room. The room was a dark blue color and it had three extra doors in the room

I slowly sat up groaning and put my hands on my head feeling a sharp pain go through it

I opened one of the doors and there was a walk in closet. I sighed because I was looking for the bathroom

I opened the second door and there was the bathroom

I looked at the mirror and I froze. My face had bruise after bruise and scratch after scratch. Now I understood why Aaliyah helped me

Wait Aaliyah. Aaliyah helped me. But why? We just met and she helped me despite how mean I was being to her.

Then I noticed that I had a few stitches. How long was I asleep for? And I wasn't in the outfit I was in anymore. I was in a t-shirt and sweatpants. Who changed me? I guess I'll go down stairs and find some answers.

I opened the door to go out of the room and I was in the hallway that lead to the small living room or the pool. I guess I was in one of the guest bedrooms

The house was silent and the sun was just going down.

I heard noise from outside and I'm assuming it was them having dinner or doing god knows what in that massive backyard

I went into the kitchen and there was pans and a few pots on the stove with noodles and sauce. I'm assuming they were having spaghetti

I didn't even bother at the moment I just wanted my questions answered

I slid the door open and walked out. They were all sitting at the dinning room table, staring at me.

"You're awake" A familiar voice sounded. I turned and at the end of the table was Aaliyah

We made direct eye contact. She broke it and looked at the others

"I'm going to go get more does anyone want any?"

They all nodded and she grabbed her plate. I was standing at the door way blocking her. I looked down at her holding her plate

She was looking down at her plate. I was still trying to find her eyes but she wouldn't look up. Finally she looked up and I saw those gorgeous blue-teal eyes with yellow around her iris. "Excuse me" She said softly and I moved forward letting her walk past

I need to ask her some questions

Aaliyah's P.O.V

Jason was beat up pretty bad and when I saw him, I felt his pain. I've been there before. I had to help him. I helped him but he has been asleep for 5 days now

We all sat down and ate our spaghetti that I made. Ever since I was 7 I had to make food for my brother and I. My brother, Jayce, was older but he was incapable to cook.

He was sick. Like cancer sick. He had Leukaemia

My parents were away all the time so I had to take care of everything in the house

Ya it was hard but it helped me. If I didn't know how to do that then, I wouldn't be able to take care of twelve people right now, including me

I just finished my last bite almost spitting it out because Jordan was making us all laugh

We were all laughing and having a good time when the sliding glass door came open

It was Jason who walked out. He looked lost and confused.
