Jacob unlocks the door and I go inside. The other cars havent arrived yet. I go to the fridge and grab my Starbucks coffee.
"Uhm I got updated on where dad is" jacob breaks the silence. "They took him to Australia" .I look down. Today cant get worse...
Silence fills the room again. The only thing you could hear was jacob tapping his finger and the slight sound of me drinking.
Then the door opens and tayler and mark run in holding an unconscious joey. My hear lights up as I see he made it out.
Tayler and mark put him on the couch and he begins to moan in pain. "Fuck,I'm not going to make it-" ... "joey shutup!now is not the time!" Mark snaps at him. I was about to run to him until jacob holds me back.
"Call alexia, she'll take care of joey" he says. Who the fuck is alexia?!
I look around and then back at jacob "nevermind I'll do it" he says and jogs up the stairs. "Stay where you are" I hear him yell.
All you could hear was joey moaning in pain and panting for air and whimpering
"Where does it hurt more?" Mark asks as he touches his leg. "Owww, there!" He says.
I sigh and then hear running down the stairs. I look up and see a girl with dirty blonde hair, brown eyes and pale skin. She was a little bit taller than me. She runs to joey and tells mark and tayler to move. She pulls Joey's pants down and tells him to take off his tux.
For a minute I thought I had forgotten how to breath.
She gets a first aid kit and takes out the bullet from his leg. She applies some kind of water to it and then covers it in bandages.
She then moves up to his upper body. I hate seeing someone else touch joey so I went outside.
I sit on the edge of the pavemeant and watch the city lights far away from me shine. Then Mark's car pulls up in our driveway.. this is it. ...
Out comes hunter,zach,loren and johnny ...that's it.
Hunter,zach,loren,johnny,mark,tayler,joey, jacob and I are the only ones that made it out.
Joey barely did...
I dont say anything to them. They walk inside without saying a word .
I look up at the night sky.
So many people died today...and for what reason exactly? Not even I know the answer for that.
What couldve jacob done to get so many people on his bad side?
I get snapped out of my thoughts by a car honking at me and probably going 120mph. I crawl back into the yard and look at the house.
I wonder if jacob has ever thought about moving back to Virginia. I wonder if he's ever wanted to have a normal life again.
A cold gush of wind hits me making me shiver.
"Fuck" I whisper. I stand up and put my cold hands in my hoodie pocket.
I walk down the sidewalk but make sure to stay really close to the house..after what happened today I'm not sure I can trust the streets of LA.
I kick a rock and scream. My life is so fucked up. I pick up a rock and throw it at the nonliving street.i wipe my tears away and look at my hands. I notice there was blood on the palm of my hand..from the rock I guess.
I groan and wipe it on my hoodie...fuck now it looks like I killed someone..I look around for the rock that cut my hand and find it next to a streetlight. It had blood on the edges. I pick it up and put it in my hoodie pocket.
I walk back to the house with my head down.
I hear my name being yelled. I look around and see jacob standing with the door open. "Come in,its getting cold" he says. I walk in and immediately get hugged by warmth. but I dont take my hoodie off
"Wheres joey?" I ask as I see he wasnt laying on the couch anymore. "Room" mark says as he opens a poptart box. I nod and make my way upstairs.
I see his room door was slightly opened. I peek inside and see him laying down on the bed alone. I open the door and walk to the bed. He had his eyes closed and his hand on his stomach.
He was also shirtless and was only in his supreme underwear.
I carefully and gently lay my head on his chest and then feel him wrap his arm around me.
"How are you feeling jojo?" I ask. "Better now that I know you're completely okay" he says. He sounded tired and weak and his voice was raspy.
I kiss his jaw and he begins to play with my hair.
"They shot me...twice... but johnny managed to get me out before they blew up the building."
Johnny helped save joey..
"I'm just glad you made it out in time" I say as I play with his lip. He smiles "I did it for you, I'm going to keep fighting for you..till we kill every single one of them and till I am 100% sure that nothing,and I mean nothing, ever hurts you"
Suddenly the bathroom door opens and out comes alexia. I roll my eyes. I hate it how she gets to see joey almost naked.
Joey is mine and only mine. I dont share what's mine. PERIODT.
If I see her looking at him in a wrong way I'm going to hit her with the rock I have in my pocket.
"Do you mind stepping back" she says. I furrow my eyebrows and get off of joey. I put my hands on my hips and click my tongue.
She touches his abs and at this point I'm about to pull that rock out until joey moans in pain. "Oww" he says.
"You have a piece of glass, let me take it out" she says. Joey looks at me and holds my hand. He squeezes it to the point where I thought he was going to break it. His eyes were squeezed shut.
Alexia cleaned it and put a bandage over it. She then left the room because I told her to. I lay on the bed next to joey. He holds my hand smiling but then his smile disappears. He brings our hands up and looks at the blood in my hand that was now on his hand.
"What happened?" He asks. "A rock cut me"
He frowns and then kisses my forehead. "I love you" he says. I smile
"I love you too"
