P.S: ANOTHER GUARDIAN WILL SHOW UP IN THIS CHAPTER...any guesses? ;D


Previously on the last chapter...

In about 20 minutes, I heard the noise of screaming and shouting downstairs. I was definitely curious. It didn't seem like anyone of the people living here. Pretty soon, voices got louder and closer. The lock unlocked and then the flight of stairs came down, allowing someone up the stairs.

The first head that popped up was Jack. The second one was…Jamie?!


Chapter 6: Hidden Motives

I slammed the book shut and stood up. Jamie's eyes were blindfolded shut and he couldn't see anything but Jack was leading the way. He even had his backpack on.

Why was Jamie here?!

"Jamie!" I yelled as I made my way over to him.

"K-Karen?" I heard him say.

I knelt down eye level to him and untied the blindfold on his head. His eyes focused and he looked at me. "Karen!" he shouted, throwing his small 10-year-old arms around my neck and crying a little.

I rubbed his back sympathetically, picking him up in my arms. I looked at Jack confused as to why he brought him here.

"Wait here." I mouthed to Jack as I walked over to the bed. I set Jamie down on the bed and wiped the tears from his eyes, telling him to sit here for a second. I stood up and walked over to Jack.

"Why is Jamie here?" I asked him.

"…Surprise!" he jokingly said.

I narrowed my eyes at him. "What, kidnapping me wasn't enough, you just had to go and kidnap Jamie too?! He's just a little kid!" I said to him.

"Yes, but we needed something that would motivate your brother Zander to hurry up the pay. I figured kidnapping your younger brother might do the trick so let's find out." He shrugged.

I growled at him. I stepped closer to him and grabbed him by the shirt collar, shoving him to the wall. Hey, I might be a girl but if you threaten someone dear to me, I won't hold back.

"You get back in your van and take Jamie home this instant." I said to him.

He didn't move from that spot, but he just smirked at me, inching closer to my ear. "Or what…?" he asked.

"Or this!" I said, bringing him off the wall then shoving him back up against it roughly. He continued smirking at me like it didn't hurt him whatsoever.

"Listen sweetcheeks, we both get something out of this. I get my money faster and you get to spend time with family. Win-win situation." He said. His hands travelled up to where my hands were on his collar. He pulled them off and held my hands in his.

"Now would you excuse me, I have a phone call to make." He said, winking at me, walking down the flight of stairs before locking it from the bottom.

If it wasn't for Jamie being in the room, I would have beaten the guy up.

I sighed and looked over to Jamie who was watching us with confusion. I went over to him and sat down in front of him, wiping away his tear streaks.

"Hey Jamie…are you alright? Did those mean bullies hurt you in any way?" I asked.

Jamie smiled and slapped my hand away lightly. "I'm not a baby Karen!" he said. I smirked.

"Oh really…?" I asked. I started tickling his sides and he burst out laughing.

"K-Karen…! S-sto- hahahaha! S-stop! Hahaha! Please! Hahahahaha!" he pleaded while laughing.

I laughed along with him and then I finally stopped to give him a breath. He sighed in relief when I stopped as he sat up, still wearing that adorable smile on his face. "God Jamie, your hair's a mess!" I said, fixing up his brown hair as he just sat there.

"Karen?" he asked, looking at me with those big brown eyes.

"Yeah?" I asked.

"Is this where you were at these past days?" he asked.

I looked at him in the eye, wishing I didn't have to tell someone so young something like this. I sighed. "…Yeah." I said.

"Why?" he asked.

So I told him that Zander owes Jack money so he "took us in" so Zander could get the money. He seemed pretty worried.

"Don't worry Jamie. They seem mean at first, but look at me, they haven't done anything bad. They can be really nice sometimes." I said, reliving him of his worry. He nodded and flashed me a smile. I smiled back and asked him if he wanted me to tell him a story and he nodded.

Since I know Jamie really believes in stuff like Santa, the Tooth Fairy, Bigfoot, and other fairy tales and myths, I decided to tell him a story about just those. He listened carefully to every word I spoke and seemed even more of an innocent little kid. That's what I loved about him.

Jamie's not like those obnoxious little brothers you normally have or see on TV, but instead he's the type of younger brother that listens to his older siblings and is just plain adorable, fun, and full of energy.

I played and talked with him the rest of the day. Sandy came up here to give us our dinner and I introduced him to Sandy. Jamie seemed interested in him since he couldn't speak but he was friendly with him nonetheless. Soon after he left and we ate our food. About an hour later he felt sleepy so I let him sleep on the bed.

I tucked him in and said goodnight. He fell asleep immediately. I sat on the side of the bed and had my back on the bed. The bed was big enough for two people to be on so I sat next to him.

But I wasn't very sleepy. I just wanted Jamie to be back home, playing with his stuffed animals and action figures, having fun with Sophie and our greyhound Abby. He's safer over there.

But what I really need is Jack to come up over here so I can talk to him. I needed to talk to him. But I doubt he'll come at night so I just had to talk to him tomorrow and convince him to get Jamie home.

I sighed. I went ahead and lay down on the bed, bringing the sheets over my body, getting ready to fall asleep.

The next morning

"Karen!" I woke up to the sound of Jamie shaking me awake. "Karen! Wake up!" he said, shaking me harder.

"Relax kid; I'm here for your food, not to hurt you." I heard Jack say.

I groaned and rolled over to face Jamie who seemed desperate to get away from Jack. I rubbed my eyes and opened them.

"Good morning sleeping beauty." Jack jokingly said, setting the food trays on the 3 drawer cabinet. I sat up with Jamie desperately grabbing my left arm.

I rolled my eyes at Jack. "It's okay Jamie, he's harmless." I said, flicking my hand at Jack. Jamie loosened his grip on my arm at my words.

"Oh, am I?" he asked, leaning forward with a smirk. I pushed him away.

"Not now, idiot. We have a kid in the room." I said, humoring him.

Jack laughed. I turned to Jamie and smiled at him. "You go freshen up okay, the bathroom's over there." I said, pointing to the bathroom. He looked unsurely at me, like Jack would do something terrible to me in his absence.

"Go now or I will and take an hour long." I added, in the 'Go now or forever regret your decision' tone. Jamie grinned and jumped off the bed, running into the bathroom.

Once the bathroom door shut close, I looked at Jack. "I need to tell you something." I told him.

He gasped playfully. "Can it be? You've fallen for me?"

I rolled my eyes. "Take Jamie back home…please?" I said.

He sat down in front of me, on the bed. "Sorry, can't do that." he said.

I grabbed the sandwich on the plate. "I'll even share my food with you." I said, halving the sandwich, and pretty messily at that. Jack cringed at the sight of everything sticking out but I didn't mind. "And this is a pretty big deal, I almost never share food." I added.

Jack rolled his eyes this time. "It's going to take you a lot more than half a sandwich made from my own kitchen ingredients to get me to take your brother home." He said.

I sighed and thought for a minute. "Then what do you want." I asked him. "Anything, I'll give you anything." I said.

He raised an eyebrow. "Anything, eh?" he asked, sitting straight with a knowing smirk.

"Yes. Anything besides my body." I added.

"Darn." Jack playfully said, snapping his finger. I smirked slightly, running my hand through my messy bed head hair.

"So…?" I asked.

"Hm. And here I thought you'd be happy to have a family member with you." He said.

"I do. But Jamie doesn't deserve this, he's only 10." I told him. I looked at him in the eyes with a serious expression. "Please…?" I asked. He just stared at me with an 'I can't do that' expression.

I can't believe I have to do this…but this is a plan I need to carry out.

I brought his hands into mine and gave him my best pleading expression ever. Jack smirked a little. "So you'll do anything?" he asked cheekily, leaning forward, his face inches away from mine.

I gulped. "Y-yes?" I half said, half asked, leaning a bit back away from Jack. "Except my body." I added. He smirked.

"So? Is that a yes?" I asked.

"…Fine." he said. I grinned and happily threw my arms around his neck, hugging him. "Yes! Thank you!" I said.

Jack craned his neck so his mouth was by my ear. "Ah, but you have to give me something in return…" he huskily whispered into my ear, making me shiver. I broke apart the hug slowly, giving him a look.

"W-what do I have to do…?" I asked, almost afraid to know what he has in mind.

He thought for a few seconds. "I don't know yet. I'll think about it and then tell you later." He said with a smirk.

I was actually afraid of what his proposition would be. The worst case scenarios appeared in my mind as I mentally cringed.

"I…I uh…" I started, but then I thought of Jamie. I sighed. "Fine. But it better not have anything to do with my body or something." I said, narrowing my eyes at him. He raised his hands in defeat as a peace offering of proving that he won't.

"Good." I said. "You can drop Jamie off right after he comes out or something. I'll tell him to get ready."

Jack grinned. "Alright then sweetcheeks. I'll come back up here in an hour to get going." He said, getting up off the bed and walking towards the exit. Once he was gone and the latch was locked, I sighed.

Yes, thank god. Now Jamie can go home back to Zander and live safely.

I was actually surprised Jack actually accepted my proposition. I thought he would keep on saying 'no' every time I asked. Maybe my plan is working?

I smiled at that.

Good. Now I'm getting closer to showing that dick who's boss. All this acting to like him is mentally killing me and I can barely handle this especially when I still have nightmares of that night. But I have to try.

I lay back in my bed, waiting for Jamie to come out so I can tell him that he's going back. In about 10 minutes, Jamie stopped the shower and came out, dressed in the same clothes. And he had a towel on his hair, drying it.

I smiled at him and motioned for him to come over. He walked over and jumped on the bed next to me. I turned my body so I could face him and I rubbed his wet hair with the towel for him like a mother would do for her child.

"So Jamie, good news!" I said to him. Beneath the towel that was practically covering his face, he said "What?"

I stopped rubbing his wet hair and he looked up at me with a smile. I smiled back. "You're going back home in an hour!" I said.

He stared at me confused. "What?" he asked again.

So I repeated it. "You're going back home! I talked to Jack and he said he'll take you back." I said to him.

He started smiling. "You too?" he asked.

My smile left. "Um…not exactly…" I said.

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"Errmm…you're going home to Zander, Sophie and Abby, but me…I'm staying here for a little longer, kay?" I said to him, forcing a smile.

"No!" he said. "I want to stay here with you!"

I sighed. "Look Jamie, you'll be bored here! And you have school too. You have to go home okay?"

"Then what about you?" he asked.

"Don't worry, I'll be back home in a week or two, okay?" I said to him. "If you go home and tell Zander to hurry up with that money, he'll hurry up and give the money to Jack so then I can come home! The quicker Zander collects his money, the faster I get out of here. Okay?" I asked.

He looked unsure. "Listen Jamie, I need you to be a man and take care of your sister okay? She's probably home all alone with Zander who won't bother to play if he's busy." I told him. "Will you go home and take care of Sophie for me? Please?" I asked him.

He looked up at me and sighed. "Fine…" he mumbled.

I smiled and ruffled his wet hair. "That's more like it!" I said, smiling. But then i remembered his hair was wet, and i just stared at my hand like it grew another finger. I looked back towards Jamie and playfully wiped my hand on his shirt as Jamie glared at me before laughing.

Good, now that it's official, I don't have to worry about Jamie's safety.

I looked at the time from my necklace watch.

"Okay so we have about 45 minutes together until you're leaving." I said, closing my watch.

The next 45 minutes we had together, me and Jamie spent having fun and goofing off. Except for those 10 minutes that I spent helping Jamie with his school homework from yesterday. And pretty quick, Jack came up here, ready to take Jamie home. Though he came up here with 2 other people…

The first one was that guy who I saw at the grocery store, who told me his car needed a "Jump-start" and the other one I've never seen before, but he was also tall, just like the guy right next to him.

"Alright, Jamie, this guy is Aiden and that's Bunny, they'll will take you home, okay?" Jack said to him. Jamie just slowly nodded at him.

"Hey" 'Bunny' said as he shoved Jack, making him laugh. "Don't listen to the idiot, my name is Hugh."

"Bunny."

"Hugh!"

"Bunny!"

"HUGH!"

"BUNNY!"

"I'll kill you, bastard!" 'Bunny' yelled as he lunged at Jack. "WHERE'S MY GODDAMN BOOMERANG!?" 'Bunny' yelled. They both started wrestling on the floor as Jamie laughed. Aiden just watched silently with a somewhat amused expression on his face.

"You are such a dumbass, there was literally no purpose for bringing her little brother here, and now you're taking him back the next day? Wow you're smart!" 'Bunny' yelled in Jack's face. He was the one on top.

"Shut up!" Jack yelled. He turned around so now he was on top of him. "I did have a purpose!"

"See, this is exactly why I should have been leader." 'Bunny' said, on top now.

"As if! You don't know jack shit!" Jack yelled at him, hovering over him.

But 'Bunny' turned around, with him on top now. "Haha, that's actually kind of funny, considering your name."

"Oh, like your name's any better than mine, Bunny" Jack said after he pushed himself on top.

'Bunny' growled before turning around on top of him, smirking.

"No floor sex you two. We have a kid in the room." The guy, who I believe his name was Aiden, said.

'Bunny' and Jack looked at each other with disgust. They slowly got up and glared at Aiden once they were standing. I smirked slightly in amusement. Jamie just watched the two argue like a married couple again.

I turned to look at Jamie. "So you're going home now, okay? Tell Zander exactly what I told you to tell him, kay? And take care of Sophie too." I said to him. He nodded, getting off the bed, picking up his backpack off the floor. I got off the bed and stood up also.

"Bye, I'll miss you." Jamie said, hugging me quickly. I smiled and knelt down on my knees so I was eye level with him. I hugged him back. "I'll miss you too. But don't worry okay? I'll be home soon."

Jamie broke the hug and smirked at me. He went over to Aiden and 'Bunny' cautiously as I stood up. "Come on, kid, let's go." 'Bunny' said, walking down the attic stairs ahead of them. Aiden just gave Jamie a smile and motioned for him to come down with them, with Jamie following behind with his backpack on, as if he was being guided to school.

I followed behind him until I got to the top of the stairs. He looked at me one last time, waving before he disappeared with the two. The stairs came back up, blocking my view of them. I sighed. At least Jamie would be at home, safe and sound.


Oh my freaking gosh you people have no idea how hard it was to split this chapter. Like I had more to add to this chapter but if I did it would be like freaking 30 pages all in all. Today's chapter is like 11 pages. So it was so hard cause I wanted that other part to be a different chapter and but it was so stressful like omg.

putting that aside... BUNNY WAS IN THIS CHAPTER! XDD

okay so i was deciding on his name for hours. this is the real world and Bunny isnt really a normal name for a human so i decided on making up names for them when suddenly i had this ingenious idea of naming them after the people that voice acted them! Whoo! Hugh Jackman? Yeah, the guy who played Bunny?

I am such a genius, even I surprise myself ^_^

And i know there was absolutely no reason for Jamie to have been here but i did it anyway because a) i wanted more Jamie time, b) i wanted to give you guys an inside look of Bunny in this chapter, and c) cause i CAN! :P

Oh admit it...you guys also probably found that last wrestling scene of Bunny and Jack as amusing as i did, huh? :D

Hope it was as fun to read as much as i had fun writing it :D

Also…how many people watched the new Supernatural episode on Wednesday? Huh? Huh? Anyone?

Review so we can PM each other and bond about how awesome that show is. And let's talk about that homosexual relationship of Dean and Castiel. ^_^ I'm sorry; Tumblr has changed me so much…

Annywaayy, I was planning on updating on Monday but since you people always seem to be getting me to update faster, there might be a guarantee that I update before that like, Sunday or Saturday or something.

Okay guys… i'm going to be honest with you..

i was supposed to update this yesterday buuut...i got lazy.

*BOOING NOISES*
