No Where to Go

The Walk

Jace said my head would be okay and kept an ice pack on it. He took me to bedroom and helped me lay down. "Can you please tell me what's going on? This is frustrating, I'm sorry." He gave me a genuine smile and sat down on the bed beside me. "You wouldn't believe me if I told you, love."
My head began pounding. Love triggered something, but at the same time nothing. "Just tell me." I whispered. "Your ex Nick got pretty pissed when we got together. We were best friends, but he refused to treat you right. He went...." he refused to look at me. "Crazy..." I looked at him with confusion. "Nick? Crazy? How?"
Jace sighed. "He had you at gunpoint. He said he was gonna shoot you if you didn't come out. He fired and instead knocked you out with the gun." My eyes widened with shock. "Damn. I really pissed him off." I laughed in disbelief. "Is he gone? Like dead?" "Not yet, but he won't survive long how I left him. I will leave it at that."
I really wish I could remember what was going on, what had happened, whether I could trust this beautiful man, or if he was the devil in disguise. He seemed so genuine about everything. My heart said to trust him. So I'm going to.
"You know you're pretty tough. I was scared him hitting you would've cause a lot more damage." I rolled my eyes. "Jace, I cant remember anything. The only thing worse than this, is if I was dead." Jace put his hand on my cheek and caressed it with his thumb. "I'm just thankful you're still here, Jenna. I don't know what I would have done without you."
"Moved on with someone new like most people do." Okay, so I guess I am sarcastic. "I don't think I could live without you." To me, that was the dumbest thing you could say. You can live without anybody. You can't live without oxygen. I decided to keep the comment to myself, just because I still wasn't sure about Jace, and I didn't know how he would react.
"What are you thinking about?" He interrupted my thoughts. "I'm just trying to remember anything, something. I'm trying and when it seems like something is coming back, it goes away...." Jace laid down beside me and propped his head on his hand. "It'll come back in time, sweetie."
My head began pounding again and foggy images of shapes formed in my head. Nothing useful, though. It's when he calls me something sweet it comes back. This man is so sweet and caring though, so I'm convinced that it'll be the sweetest memories when I remember. I mean why else would I be triggered by that? It only makes sense.
"I'm gonna let you rest, Jenna." When he said that, nothing. "I'm gonna head out and get some groceries. I'm gonna leave a phone here. If anything happens call me, ok?" I smiled and nodded. Jace kissed my forehead and left. He left me some more water beside the bed, and I decided to drink some. I felt dizzy and sleepy soon after, and fell into a deep sleep.

     I awoke once again and my head felt heavy. Well, I did just get knocked in the head with a gun....that would explain it. Jace still was not back. Maybe I should call him? I grabbed the phone, and called.
     "Hey, everything ok?"
     "Yes, Jace. Just wanted to make sure you were ok. When are you coming back?"
      "I'll be home in about an hour. I love you."
      "Uh....I love you, too? Bye."

      I guess I loved him? He wouldn't say it unless we've said it before, right? I was getting more and more frustrated. I decided to take the phone and go outside for a walk. As I stepped outside, I gasped. This place was beautiful!
It was a secluded place I could tell. There was a man made beach that went for miles. When I turned around trees surrounded the house. It was a forest, with a dirt road where I'm assuming Jace took the car.
I decided to walk through the wooded area, close to the road, but not where anyone could see me. It was so peaceful out here and I never wanted to leave. I did not care who I was at that moment. I was just at peace and calm. I seen a huge rock with a stream running beside it.
I sat down on the rock and watched the stream glisten, the birds chirping, and the soothing wind blow. My name was Jenna and I had a boyfriend named Jace. As well as a psycho ex-boyfriend named Nick. Now I'm beginning to wonder how all this happened.
      All of the sudden my phone started going off.
      "Hello?"
      "Where the hell are you?!"
      "I....uhhhh....just went for a walk?"
      "Ugh!"
      Call ended.
    Why was he mad at me? I just wanted to see my surroundings? "Jenna? Let's go now!" I heard Jace tell. I slide off and the rock and started heading towards his voice. It was just a few seconds later, I seen him. "Where have you been?!" Jace looked furious and I instantly got nervous. "I'm.....sorry...." I kept my eyes to the ground. "I just wanted to go for a walk.."
      Jace grabbed my chin and tilted my head up to look at him. I didn't expect him to what he done next.

      *Cliffhanger!!!
