On The Run

Running Away part 2

Jason
My dad…My own fucking dad wanted me killed. Everything I knew had been a lie. Ever since mom died, I thought dad wanted me to be happy, but turns out he hated me, also he hated my mom. How could he use me to kill people? Seventeen years of my life, all a lie. I wanted to close my eyes and hope this was a nightmare and when I wake up none of this would’ve happened, but no, I knew that it was very real. What freaked me out the most was how right it felt when I held that gun, It almost felt like it was made for me. It's fucked up I know, but I also know that life was never gonna be the same and I’ve made up my mind. I either find out what exactly my dad is tryna do with Omega or die trying.
“Jay” Jessie asked.
“Yeah?”
“You okay?”
I smiled and shook my head, “Are you?”
“No” she admitted. “It’s not fair, it isn’t fair that we get plunged into a mystery we didn’t plan”
“I know Jess, but it’s either this or death I guess”
She nodded, “Jay, I think Omega might have had something to do with my parents’ death too”
I winced, I haven’t told her about the vision yet, the one where I pulled a gun on Jessie’s parents. I knew that if I did, she’d probably hate me forever, but it was better than having her wonder what exactly happened to her parents. I loved her too much for that.
“Jess, I…I saw another vision” I began.
She leaned into me, resting her head on my chest, “Okay, and?”
I instinctively wrapped my arms around her and pulled her close.
I sighed, “I pulled a gun on…on your parents”
Please don’t hate me, please don’t hate me. Fuck. She flinched and moved away from me and my heart shattered from the look on her face, “What?”
“Jess, baby, I’m sorry I didn’t know” I begged. She moved farther away from me and it physically hurt seeing her in pain. She didn’t reply but she just closed her eyes tightly and wrapped her arms around her as if she was trying to protect herself and this time, she was protecting herself from me. I felt like a monster and  I hated my dad for putting me through this, I hated Rogue for wiping my memories and more than anything I hated myself. There might’ve been a chance that I didn’t murder her parents, but I didn’t remember anything. I looked at Luke through the front mirror who was giving a sympathetic look. I reached out and touched Jessie’s arm and she winced, “Jess please talk to me, scream at me” I pleaded, “But don’t shut me out”
She shook her head and a tear rolled down her cheek, “I can’t Jason, just give me some space”
I gritted my teeth but nodded and leaned against the window and closed my eyes, the cool glass of the window momentarily freezing my thoughts, I wasn’t in the mood for conversation. A couple of hours later someone shook me and I glared at Chase who was grinning, “We’re here”
I got down from the car and stretched my hands and legs, looking at the surroundings, I realized we were in a forest and in front of us was a forest cabin. “Luke?”
“It was the only place I could think of”
I breathed in the fresh smell of pine as I stared into the forest and I sat on the front porch as Luke and Chase went inside to explore.
“Hey” I looked up to see Jessie standing there, her palms rubbing her hands as if she was cold. “Here” I said, handing her my jacket. I almost laughed at how big the jacket was on her. She sat beside me and her foot grazed the grass like she was nervous.
“Jay, I’m sorry” I was taken aback, why was she sorry?
“Why are you sorry? Jess, I might’ve killed your parents”
She finally looked at me and gave me a weak smile, “You might’ve and Jason even if you did, you were being controlled by Omega, it’s not your fault. I shouldn’t have shut you out like that”
I nodded, not knowing what else to say.
“I tried talking to you again, but you were asleep”
Dang it! I wasn’t asleep
I throw an arm around her, “It’s okay Jess, we’ll figure it out”
