Million Paper Cuts

Chapter 7

"Are you okay, Jacob?" I ask.

"I'm fine." he responds.

"Lies, tell me the truth." I tell him.

"It's.....nothing" He looks down.

Soon as he came through that door, Jacob, oh man. He looked like he got beaten up so badly. A purple eye, cuts over his body and face, he looks like Gerard Way who was crying terribly. I don't know what happened. But I wanna know what happened cause I wanna be his saviour.

"It's something." I told him.

"Can you two sit down please and shut the hell up?" the teacher asks.

"Come with me." I told Jacob.

"Where we goi-" I grabbed his hand and dragged him out of class and dragged him down the hall to the locker room in the gym.

"Really?" Jacob asks.

"Yep." I reply.

"We're gonna get marked absent." Jacob complains.

"Do you think I fucking care? I care about you right now and only you." I yell.

"Well there is something I wanna say to you..." Jacob went on.

"I actually love you." Jacob hugs me tightly and starts to tear up.

I turn red and I start to scream on the inside. I always wanted him. Should I ask him out? I wanna kiss him right now.

I lift up his chin and look into his eyes.

"I love you too." I slowly lean in and softly kiss him on the lips.

He kisses back softly and passionately. I've been waiting for this for so long....

I pull away and hug him tightly.

These 4 words surprised me when they came out of his mouth.

"Will you be mine?" Jacob asks.

...

"Will you be mine, Ashton?" Skye asks.

I shot up and hug her tightly. "Yes!" I scream.

I gave Skye a kiss on the cheek and winked at her. Her face turned rose red. I chuckled a bit.

Jeez, Skye, she was really the sky to me. She made me feel like I was flying.

Her hair was blonde and was so soft. Her eyes so blue like the sky. Her body was in perfect shape. She was amazing and fantastic. To me she was body goals.

I loved her.

Later on after a year or two she always liked to touch other guys. I just dealt with it. She would touch guys, and my friends would warn me.

I didn't care so much.

As long as she didn't get touched I am fine with it.

She went a little farther the next time. She apparently lost her virginity in the past. To girls and 1 guy.

I asked her what can I take from her.

Nothing.

She lost everything.

So did I.

She wouldn't stop touching them and she would say, "I love you so much, you mean the world to me."

I believed her.

Then everything changed.

She broke up with me the next day and told me she can't do it anymore.

She said that she only sees me like a brother, not a boyfriend.

I was totally fine with it.

Until that night I tried to commit suicide.

I gave up on the world.

She was the only girl I loved.

But she left me for no one.

She now doesn't wanna date nobody.

She says she is not worth it for anyone else.

She said it'll be better when alone.

...

"Will you be mine?" Jacob asks.

I looked at him so red and hid my face in my hands and sigh.

"Why not? I would love to be yours." I tell him.

He takes my arms away and lifts up my chin and looks me in the eyes and kisses my nose.

"You are worth it for me, don't ever say you are not."
