Where Were You? (Merome)

Chapter 9:

Jerome's POV:

I feel like I'm being dragged. I'm trying to defend against it, hold on to my foothold to life. Its so hard, I'm trying to hang on, but I feel myself getting weaker and finally just letting go. I'm sorry Mitch... A bright light is shining in my eyes and I'm in a clean, white room. I'm not dead? When I try to move, I feel stiff but I can move without pain. Looking to the right I see a sleeping Mitch. Holy cow. He looks so much cuter than he did before. Wanting him to wake up I start to weakly shake him just cause my arms were really stiff. He grumbles a little and wakes up. At first he didn't even seem to notice I was awake until I said:

"Hey Mitch. Long time no see."

He sharply turns his head in my direction and when he sees me pulls me into a tight hug. I feel my shoulder getting wet and I know he's crying. Worried, I pull away and look into his tear-filled eyes.

"A lot's been going on Jerome... It's been tough."

"Hey Mitch?"

"Y-Yeah?"

"I love you."

He looks kinda in between cautious and happy cause the last time I said that I ended up breaking his heart. After a couple of seconds he leans in and kisses me on the lips. Our lips move together like they were made for each other. God, I missed this. I lick his bottom lip asking for entrance and he gladly obliges. We continue to kiss passionately as time goes on...

Jakes POV:

Hope you're happy Mitch... I just brought Jerome back from the dead. I know he would be as good as dead if Jerome died. So I brought him back, but... there's a condition... Now he's just like me. Looking at them kissing, I can see his eyes flash red when his eyes open and they pull apart briefly. Hopefully he doesn't hurt Mitch. If he did, I would take his life as fast as I gave it.

When I told Mitch I loved him, he just ran away, not caring what he did to me. In my heart, I know that we will never be together, but I want to keep on trying. Maybe we were really meant for each other. Soon, Jerome will start to show his abilities and his thirst. He won't be able to hold back for long, and then, Mitch will be mine.

Ruining lives. For once, that ability will actually help me. I ruined Adams relationship so he and Ty will be mad at each other for a long time. They won't want to listen to Mitch's problems, at least I hope so. Then Mitch will come to me for comfort and things can be the way I wanted it to be, just me and Mitch together forever. Its a pleasant thought, I think, as I quickly jump out a window at light speed.

-A couple weeks later-

Ty's POV:

"I'm leaving Adam! I can't stand living with you anymore!"

"Ty! Why can't you just  listen?!"

"Screw you! You never had anything good to say in the first place!"

"Fine! Just leave! I don't need you anymore! You better get yourself out of here while you still can!"

"Yeah, I'll be out faster than you can say goodbye!"

Adam and I have been fighting for so long, almost every day so I decided to leave so that I don't have to put up with him. You would think that he would be happy to see me gone, but instead he wants me to freaking stay! I guess he still kind of cares, maybe. I know that whenever we fight, I regret every word out of my mouth afterward, because in reality, I still love him no matter what. Even if he doesn't love me back I still will.

Now I gotta pack up and leave though. I rented a small apartment a couple miles away. Thank god YouTube pays me at least once a month. I find that in my thoughts I had packed up literally everything. Scooping up my suitcase I fling the door open and quickly descend down the stairs, trying to avoid Adam. Unfortunately, halfway to the door someone stops me.
