The Scars Of Us

CHAPTER 5

The sound of hard knocking woke me up. I frowned as I squinted at my phone. It's Saturday! Who the hell could be knocking on a Saturday? How are they!

I curl up deeper into my blanket. Maybe if I convince myself I'm asleep, it might go away. But soon the knocking went on to banging.

I growled as I ripped the blanket off and got my night gown on. I was having a LOVELY sleep until now! And considering what happened last night I think I deserve it!

I went downstairs. And ripped the door opened, "WHAT!"

Mrs Reed stood there surprised at my...vocal chords.

"Oh Mrs Reed!" I cringe. I felt my face heat up in shame, "I am so sorry! I thought you were someone else!" Not really but still. It's polite.

She smiles, "I am so sorry for banging, Jax has quite a strong arm he does," At the bottom of the stairs, Jax stood there with his back to me and having a smoke as usual.

"Honey your parents have informed us that they will be away on business due to some complications. They said they would feel more comfortable if you were to stay with us so than you wouldn't be alone."

"Oh..." What the hell? "They never told me." Typical.

Mrs Reed frowned, "That's odd." Not really since my parents don't give a crap.

I shrugged, "That's my parents for ya," I said laughing, "Ummm I guess I'll have to get some of my things packed."

Mrs Reed smiles, "I'll leave Jackson in your charge so than he can help with some things."

I smiled and said through my teeth, "Wow! That is so sweet and thoughtful that he would do such a thing."

Jax scowled at me from over his shoulder. Asshole.

"Yes he is! Once you're all set just come on over. I'll be getting your room ready in the meantime."

"Oh thank you so much Mrs Reed! You're too kind."

She gives me a polite smile and walks off, leaving Jax and I alone.

Jax turns around and I glare at him. He sighs and walks up the stairs about to walk into the house, but I stand in the way.

He looks down at me and said, "You're not going to let me in the house?"

I smile and grab the door and slam it in his face, "Asshole!" I shouted at the entrance.

Jax opens the door and slams it behind him with a grumpy growl, "Look I can't leave until I get all of your shit back to my house. I know you don't like it, but guess what babe, neither do I! So get your ass up those stairs, pack your shit! So than we don't need to see each other for the rest of the day!"

I stood there with my arms defiantly across my chest. As much as he irritates me right now, he's right. If we just get all this done and over with we can stay away from each other for a while, "Fine!" I reluctantly said.

Jax casually flops on the couch as I go upstairs.

I grab a suitcase from my cupboard. I began throwing clothes inside, "Friggin parents, friggin party, friggin Jake, friggin Jax. Fuck you! Fuck you all! I hate you all!" I shouted as I cleaned up around the place. I took a deep breath. That kind of made me feel better...not really. I don't think anything could remedy this situation.

I didn't want to be near Jax, let alone live with him for who knows how long! My eyes zoomed on my phone. Maybe if I called my parents and if they actually accept my call..maybe I can talk my way out of it.
