Chapter 2
JPOV
"What do you mean Dad has lung cancer?" Krista asked.
"He was diagnosed with it, two years ago and he didn't want anyone else to know besides me and him and Aunt Sue and Uncle Ray" I replied.
"So you didn't even bother to let your own sister know? Do you have any idea how that would make me feel?" she asked angrily.
"Well, I'm sorry but whenever I did call, I would get the stupid machine and I would think it would be highly inappropriate to leave that message on the machine and god knows what happened to your cell phone" I replied.
"You're right I'm sorry I just, this is like out of nowhere. Does he know you're here?"
"Well he was the one that suggested me coming down here. He thinks that it was best that you should know by now since he's in remission" I replied.
"That's good" she said.
"It is and no Mom doesn't know and I don't even think she wants to" I said.
"To be honest, I'm not surprised about that" she said. Sookie came by and placed our drinks on the table and took our orders.
"So how do you know her?" I asked.
"She introduced me when I first came here. She tried getting me a job but it was already packed anyways so we became friends and I met her grandmother and brother actually too" she replied.
"She has a brother?"I asked. I wonder if he's cute.
"Yeah but I would watch out, he has been in trouble before so who knows what might happen" she replied.
"I'm sure he's not that bad" I said. Just after I said it, I saw two guys walking inside. One of them was tall and had dark brown hair and was a little bit heavy built while the other was lean built and had blondish brown hair.
"Who are they?" I asked nodding my head at them. Krista looked at them for a second before turning back towards me.
"Those two are Hoyt the brown hair and the other guy, that's Jason" she replied pointing them out.
Oh so that what Jason looks like. "He's not too bad" I said.
"Jill" she warned.
"I know, I know" I said rolling my eyes. Our food came and we ate and chatted while we caught up. I couldn't help but look over a few times at the guys that were by the pool table across the room. The weird thing was that when I wasn't looking, I could've sworn that I was being watched.
After dinner was over, we paid and left the place. Krista told me that I would follow her to her place since I had no idea where it was. I agreed and when I was getting into my car, I saw that one of the guys looked right at me from the inside as I got in.
"Welcome to my humble home" Krista said as we got in. I looked around and saw that it was only a small house. It has a living room with a kitchen and they looked like they were decent. I saw that it looked like it was a house from like the seventies or something but it also looked cozy at the same time.
"It looks nice" I said, dropping my bag.
"Yeah, it's not much but it's something. You want something to drink?" she asked.
"No thanks so um, can I ask you something?" I asked.
"Sure."
"Who was that guy that picked up your phone when I called?" I asked.
"Oh that's one of my neighbors. He was stopping by to drop something" she replied a bit too quickly. That seemed a bit suspicious. But I ignored the feeling anyways.
I didn't know what to think or how my sister would react to how I was going to break the news about dad.
"So have you called him letting him know you got here safe?" she asked.
"Yeah he knew when I crossed the state line I called him" I replied. "Are you okay though for me being here and all?"
"Jill, you're my sister. Why would I deny you a place to stay?"
I shrugged not bothering to give an answer. I sat in the living room for awhile let alone in my thoughts. I didn't know what to do or how long would I be staying. I also didn't know whether or not Krista would be involved in dad's care or if something happened to him, what would we do?
I don't remember falling asleep. I woke up the next day still on the couch and in yesterday's clothes. I looked around and saw the early sun trying to peak its way through the curtains.
"Well, morning sleepyhead" Krista said from the kitchen.
"What time is it?" I asked.
"Little bit after nine listen you don't mind if I go into work today? I was scheduled off but someone couldn't make it in so I have to fill them in for the day." She said.
"Don't worry you got to do what you got to do" I said.
"I know thank god you would understand" she said.
"If you want I can cook something up for dinner tonight" I offered.
"Okay that's great, you think you need to get some things?" she asked.
"Not sure but I have money if anything" I replied.
"Are you sure?" she asked. I told her I was fine and then she made her way to work. I grabbed a box of cereal and ate that along with some orange juice. After that, I washed up the bowl and glass and then made my way to shower and get ready for the day.
After I showered, I only had a towel on me as I walked towards my suitcases, since I only brought two with me in order to find my accessories. I went back into the bathroom and brushed out my hair, making it into a ponytail with a funky twist along with a few bobby pins. I threw on a black and white halter top with short blue denim shorts and my black and white converse sneakers. I brushed my teeth and I was all set.
I stepped outside to lock the door since Krista left it to me along with my bag. The sun was attacking me and I could feel it burning on me and it was only after nine. I decided to go ahead and explore this little town. I got in my car and stared driving.
Okay so Bon Temps wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. But something was there that made me curious. I just didn't know what. I went into town and saw that there were a few nice shops around. I couldn't help but wonder how my sister lived here for the past six years.
I stopped in front of a store and left my car in the parking space after I locked it. I walked around checking out the shops before I headed into the grocery store that was nearby. Maybe I should get some stuff to make dinner. After all, I had to learn how to cook when Dad was sick. Thank god Aunt Sue taught me.
I went down every aisle and some aisles I picked up some things. I was in the drinks aisle when I saw something that caught my eye. In front of me were dark red bottles in little package box holder. I saw that there was Japanese like symbols on them and the bottle read 'TRU BLOOD'.
"You're actually thinking of getting that?" a voice said. I turned and saw that there was a woman who looked like she had gotten out of church and had a look of disgust on her face.
"I don't think so" I replied.
"Good, cause those good for nothing vampires need those. Lord knows long will those bloodsuckers have been living here" she mumbled as she walked away.
Bloodsuckers? Vampires? In Bon Temps? No fucking way.
I don't believe it until I know that it is true. I don't think that vampires exist, not to my knowledge. I walked away from the drinks and headed down further in the aisle. I finished my shopping and paid for everything. I headed towards my car as I was returning back to Kris's place.
On my way there, I took the road that led me towards town back to the house. However that seemed to not work out since I came across some construction crew that was working on the side of the road.
Well that was just great.
I drove slowly towards one of the guys that was hold a sign that said stop was waving on other people and he stopped me for a minute. I looked at the time on the car and it said 11:45am. I sighed and gave a small smile before I drove on as the guy made me go.
As I started to pick up a little speed, I didn't know what was happening until I heard a crash and saw a tree branch sticking through my windshield, only missing my face entirely.
Well as if this day could get any worse.
A/n: Phew! Second chapter is done. After some thinking I am going to update this story every Wednesday. Relax, Jill didn't die I would never do that this early on. I'm not that crazy.
Next chapter, she meets Jason and more of our True Blood favorites will appear.
I'm glad for the two first reviewers and alerts I've gotten. Thanks so much!
See you guys next week and don't forget to review!
Signing out for now,
