Chapter 1: Present Day

Chapter 1: Present Day

Jack woke up feeling a pair of arms around him, and someone kissing his neck. "Mmm, good morning." He heard someone whisper in his ear making him growl as he pushed away the girl he meet at the bar last night, he didn't even remember her name. "You got what you want, get out." He hissed making the girl sit up, "Why are you being so mean Jack? didn't you have a good time last night?" She ask as Jack moves his fingers through his hair, his short snow blonde hair that he cut and dyed. He didn't want a reminder of his old life, the life he had with Bella. But he also didn't understand how any man can live with short like this, it wasn't very classy in his mind.

He didn't answer her as he started to go to the bathroom to take a shower and get ready for the day. "Are you really going to leave me in bed, alone?" She pushed the blanket down so Jack could see her breast again. "Naked?" She purred making Jack roll his eyes, "Look, it seems like you don't understand what a one night stand means so let me explain." He started to walk to pick up her dress she left on the floor along with her bra and panties. "A one night stand is when a boy, that's me, takes home a drunk girl, that's you, to fuck. No strings attacked, no calling the next day just one night of fucking and that's it." Jack says throwing her clothes at her almost seeing tears come to her eyes. "Now I will say again, get the fuck out!" He growled making the girl quickly get out of bed and start to get dressed as Jack starts to walk to the bathroom closing the door behind him.

"You know, I heard you were a jerk Jack Rider, but you're not just a jerk. You Rider have no heart!" She yelled making Jack flinch at that last part, if only she knew. "Have a good life you prick!" Jack heard one more yell before he heard his front door slam shut making him sigh as he turned on his shower and jumped in. This was one of this favorite things that modern America has invited, a shower. No more bathing in his own filth. Bella would of loved this... to see the world of today. He closed his eyes, tomorrow would be the anniversary of when they first meet, it's been so long  since that day happened.

But to Jack, it felt like yesterday

"Mr. Cain! Oh Mr. Cain!" Jackson heard as he turned to see a woman with un normal color hair with the darkest blue eyes running after him holding her dress. He stopped fully and turn to the woman. "Mr. Cain, I am so sorry to bother you but..." The woman stop talking to catch her breath making Jackson smile, she was cute with her snow blonde hair up in a bun with her blue dress on. "I'm sorry... A woman... shouldn't run." She said in between breaths making Jackson laugh, "Well I truly am sorry Miss..." "Hollow, Bella Hollow." Bella said extending her hand as Jackson gabbed it and kissed it lightly, "Miss. Hollow, as in Harry Hollow's daughter?" He ask making her nod, "Yes, that's actually why I was chasing you down Mr. Cain." Bella answered taking her hand back.

"My father's birthday is coming up next week and I heard you are an amazing painter." Jackson started to rub the back of his neck embarrassed. "I wouldn't say that." Jackson answer making Bella smile, he liked how she smiled so gentle and sweet. "Well even so, I would like to pay you to paint a portrait of me for my father. His been wanting one for years but I never thought I would look very good in a portrait." Bella says rubbing her arm. Jackson didn't believe that with how beautiful she is. He step up closer to her raising his hand, "May I?" He asked making her nod as he gently grab her chin making her turn her head right then left. "You... Have beautiful cheek bones." He whispered making her look back at him having her dark blue eyes on him.

"And your eyes... Those are the kind of color eyes any painter would love to paint." Jackson whispers making Bella blush a little taking in the compliment and admiring how handsome Jackson Cain is. "So... Are you saying you'll paint me?" She ask making her let go of her chin and nod, "It would be an honor to paint you Miss. Hollow." Jackson said with a bow making her giggle, "Please, call me Bella." She says feel Jackson's cheeks get warm, "Only if you call me Jackson." He says making her nod, "Is Jack alright? You look more like a Jack to me." She says making Jackson smile, "That would be fine...
