Chapter 10…
Later that night Alex was at the club with some of her cousins,nick and Darren while her boyfriend had been in a bad mood the whole time,so she pulled him apart;"Come on,Darren,are you going to be like this the whole night?"
"Can you blame me for being mad?"asked he angry;"That son of a bitch slashed my tires a few times,broke my carwindow as well as my window at home,so I have every reason to be mad and he should be damn lucky that I didn't break his neck!"
"I don't blame you for being mad,but what point is there is letting him get to you like this and messing up our evening together?"started alex softly;"With the way that you have been acting I might as well go home."
"So this is all my fault now?"said her boyfriend as he grabbed her arm when she wanted to walk away;"He keeps pulling those stunts and it's my damn fault,alex?"
"I didn't say that,but you're letting him get to you and that's what he wants!"answered she and pulled away from him;"We're standing here right now fighting because of him!"
"It sounds like you're defending him!"started Darren furious;"Damn it,alex,you're suppose to be on my side on this!"
"I'm not even going to answer that and right now everything that I say or do will be wrong in your eyes,so I'm just gonna go home and you can call me when you can act normal again!"said his girlfriend tired as she walked away;"Bye,Darren!"
At the hudson's kristy had been out riding all afternoon long when she finally got home and found jake sitting outside with a strange look on his face;"Hi,jake,what's going on?"
"Robin came by."began her friend slowly;"There might be a new trail for alan garrison."
"No!"said kristy in shock as she backed away;"That can't be,jake,no way!"
"That's what I said too."answered he;"It isn't even sure if a judge will overturn the verdict or anything and give that son of a bitch a new trail,but robin wanted to warn us because it will be front page-news in the morning."
"They can't do that,jake,he belongs in jail for the rest of his life after what he did!"started his friend with tears in her eyes;"I can't go through another trail!"
"I know,sweety,I know."said jake as he pulled kristy into his arms to comfort her;"No judge in his right mind will overturn the verdict,kris,this is just another way for his lawer to try to get out from under his jail-time,but it's not gonna work."
At the club alex had been talking to ginny for the last hour so when she finally got up;"I really have to go now,because Darren already thinks that I left mad,so I'm not in the mood to run into him and tomorrow is a school-day."
"Do you want me to drop you off at home?"asked ginny;"You came here with Darren,didn't you?"
"Yes,but you don't have to give me a ride home."answered her cousin;"If I go through the park I will be home in ten or twenty minutes,ginny,I don't mind walking and it might even clear my head."
"Maybe you should talk to Darren before you leave,alex,instead of leaving things as they are right now."
"When Darren is like this there's no talking to him and he was being unreasonable,so why should I go talk to him and make things right again?"said she irritated;"Let him sleep on it and see how he feels in the morning."
"Maybe you're right."answered ginny as alex walked away;"Be carefull on your way home and sweet dreams."
Kathleen just got home from working at mary's place when she found adam there,talking to cass;"Hi,adam,what are you doing here and where's my sister?"
"She's at home."answered he and got up;"Maybe I should go home too."
"You don't have to go because of me."said Kathleen surprised;"Is everything okay?"
"No,not really,kathleen,but I will let cass fill you in and I really should go home."started her brother-in-law with a faint smile as he walked away;"Bye,guys."
"Bye,adam."answered she and looked at her husband;"What happened?"
"I think that adam and m.j. are having serious problems."said cass;"When they got back together when justin was still a little kid they never really sorted out their problems and they didn't do that either last year after they found out about jesse,so now the trust-issues are becoming a problem and it's gonna be difficult for them."
"But adam told m.j. that he was sorry,cass,didn't he?"asked his wife worried;"Do you really think that this problem right now is so serious?"
"Ofcourse I do,honey,adam showed m.j. that in fact he doesn't really trust her and that made her see that they still have unresolved issues which never of them know how to fix."answered he;"This is the result of them not working out their problems,but just putting them aside and moving on."
Alex was walking through the park on her way home when she heard a noise coming from behind her,so she turned around and tried to see who it was;"Hello,who's there?"
"Hello,alex."said her ex-boyfriend as he suddenly came out of the shadows;"Where's your boyfriend?"
"He's at work,Kevin,are you following me?"asked she surprised as well as angry;"What do you want?"
"Why do you keep pushing me away?"started Kevin with a strange smile while he walked closer towards her;"Why?"
"What are you talking about,Kevin,you're acting crazy!"answered his ex-girlfriend as she back away a bit;"I know that you did all those things to Darren and I want you to stop,because it's not going to get me back again and nothing will!"
"We belong together and this fling that you have with Darren isn't going to change that,because you're mine!"smiled he and grabbed alex before she had a chance to run away;"Always and forever!"
"Let go off me,kevin,we don't belong together and I'm with Darren!"said alex scared as she tried to fight him off while he pulled her even closer towards him and tried to kiss her;"No,don't!"
"I'm going to show you how much I love you and that you do still love me,alex,I will show you!"promised her ex-boyfriend and forced her down on to the ground while he layed down on top of her as he tried to undress her,while kissing her in the meantime;"You're mine!"
"No!"cried she and did her best to fight him off while he was trying to rape her when all of a sudden she grabbed the nearest thing that she could find,a rock,and hit Kevin over the head with it as many times as it took untill she finally knocked him out cold;"No!"
At the hudson's jake was sound asleep when he was woken up by a loud scream,so quickly he jumped out of bed and rushed to kristy's bedroom;"Kristy?"
"I'm fine."said she still shivering and shaking all over as jake sat down beside her;"It was just a bad dream."
"When I heard you scream I thought…."started her friend still worried while he saw that she was trying to push back the tears and pulled her into his arms;"That must have been some dream."
"Please don't!"begged kristy softly and pushed jake away from her;"I'm fine,jake,it was just a stupid dream."
"Why are you trying to act so tough?"asked he confused;"It's okay to be upset after the news we got today,kris,you don't have to act all tough with me."
"I just want to go back to sleep,jake,it was just a bad dream and now it's over."began his friend tired as she layed down;"Can you please turn off the light for me?"
"Sure,if that's what you want."answered jake surprised about the way that kristy was acting while he got and walked out of her bedroom,turning off the lights;"Sweet dreams,kris."
At the club Darren was sitting at the bar when nick sat down next to him;"Why don't you go home,Darren,things will look better in the morning."
"Do you think?"asked he with a sad smile;"Your sister was really angry with me."
"That will pass and she'll have calmed down in the morning."laughed nick;"Come on,Darren,don't make such a big deal out of a little fight and you guys will make up again tomorrow."
"I hope so."answered his friend;"I said some things that I shouldn't have,nick,so your sister had every right to be angry with me."
"She'll forgive you."said he when his phone started ringing and he picked up,a bit surprised when he saw who the caller was;"Dad?"
"Was that your father at this hour,nick,is everything okay?"asked Darren worried as he saw the shocked look on nick's face when he hung up after a few minutes;"Nick?"
"We have to get to the hospital."started his friend in shock while he pulled Darren with him;"It's alex!"
