Criminal Minds (Sequel to Criminal Lovers)

Chapter 7 | New Found Love

I read this story and saw that the situation in this story is the EXACT same as theirs. Same characters (sorta), same names, and kinda same kidnapping situation. And she wrote her story before I wrote mine, so then I felt bad because I don't want people thinking that I copied her idea. So I'm changing Rico's name to Mario so things seem at least a little different... :(

Sadè's P.O.V.

Three days down, twenty-seven more to go. 

Ever since the day Jacob was thrown in jail, I have been counting down the days until he gets released. I miss him, if you could not tell already. Life without Jacob is dull. You wake up one morning, and the entire house is dead silent. I have no one to talk to besides Jordan and Ne’Veah. 

Jamiya and I are not on speaking terms, Shay and Ray are planning on moving out and buying their own house, and Bri and Diggy are never even home to begin with. 

Craig is out of the hospital, but he is currently living with his parents. Mr. Craig and Wanda think that it’s best for him to keep his distance from Jacob...and I’m almost sure they are planning on filing a restraining order against him. 

I sighed as I chomped down the last of my cookie. My hands felt around the plate as I grabbed another. “Eating your feelings away...” I heard a high pitched voice murmur. It was Jordan. “Tsk, tsk, tsk.” He shook his head disapprovingly. 

“Shut up,” I snapped, my mouth stuffed with bits of chocolate chip cookies. 

“You don’t even like chocolate chip cookies, so why are you even eating them?” He tapped his finger against his chin as he pursed his lips. He pretended to be thinking. “Oh, I know why! Because you have nothing better to do with you life, so you eat. All you do is eat. Eat, eat, eat, eat eat.” He chanted.

Jordan was right. Trying to find a way to win Jacob back always kept me occupied, but now that he’s in jail...I guess you can say I have nothing better to do with my boring life, so I eat. That’s probably why I have gained almost three pounds in the last week.

Jordan climbed onto the stool next to me and snatched the half-eaten cookie out of my hand. He leaned forward. “Get a life. Go outside and make new friends. Go to the gym. Go shopping.” He paused and wiggled his eyebrows, “Find yourself a man...”

“I rather not.” Jacob is the only man I have ever wanted. No man can compare to Jacob, therefore I do not want another man. “Why do you even care about my love life?” Lately, Jordan has been taking extreme interest in my love life...but I never understood why.  

“I dunno.” He took a bite out of his -- or should I say my -- cookie. He stepped down from the stool, but before he exited the kitchen, he added. “Just remember this...Stop eating your feelings away and find yourself a man. ‘Cause you need some dick in your life.”
