Chapter 14
After Dee, Michael, Summer and Zach showed up they began comparing nightmares. Julian looked like he was deep in thought the whole time. Summer still cried every few minutes, not being able to take the memory of her nightmare where of her little brother Cam died out of her mind. No one wanted to go back to sleep tonight and Jenny definitely didn't want to go home. Maybe she could convince her parents to allow her to stay with Dee.
"Julian's games were bad, really scary," Summer was saying, "But this was different." Jenny knew what she meant, this was more intense. Audrey was talking to Michael about having a movie night and Jenny was about to saw she thought it sounded good but before she opened her mouth, she heard the front door to the coffee shop open and looked up to find Tom walking towards the group. He gave Jenny a look of indifference, and then froze mid stride. He was looking at Julian.
Jenny looked at Michael who also froze along with everyone else. "Oh I didn't have a chance to talk to Tom…" Michael was saying. Tom started walking again slowly looking at everyone. He stopped just short of their table and glared at Julian. Julian had a similar look on his face although it was a little more intimidating than Tom's.
"So what is this all about?" Tom asked everyone. "You didn't feel the need to let me in on something like this?" They all looked guilty, well except Julian. Jenny spoke up, it was her idea to not tell Tom right away, she would take the heat. "Tom. I'm sorry we didn't tell you sooner. Julian sort of just showed up at my house two days ago-" Tom smacked his hands down on the table making a bunch of them jump, he leaned across the table in Julian's direction, but Julian looked bored with Tom. "You asshole you couldn't just leave us alone? Are you causing the nightmares? You just couldn't let me and Jenny be happy could you?" Jenny shook her head at Tom afraid of the amount of violence and anger that was rolling off him. Julian was about to say something but Jenny cut him off, they didn't need him riling Tom when he was already this mad. "Tom, we are not together anymore. Believe it or not but Julian isn't here to play another game or mess with us, he's helping us. The nightmares aren't from him-" "You know what?" Tom was saying, "Have a great life with Jenny," he said to Julian quite sarcastically, "She deserves someone like you." And with that Tom turned and walked right back out the door.
Summer began crying again, Dee put her arms around her shoulders. "This is getting out of hand," Dee was saying, "Julian in your games we were on your timeline, we had to wait for you to tell us what was going on. Is there any way we can find out now? This is breaking us down after one night." Julian looked at Dee for a moment, then said, "That's the point. To break you down, make you feel crazy before anything really begins. But I have an idea. Jenny I'm going to go back to your house if that's alright with you." Jenny nodded, "Audrey do you want to give us a ride?" Audrey was about to answer, but Julian shook his head no, "No. I don't want you anywhere near there until I come back." Jenny wasn't sure weather or not she should argue seeing as she didn't want to go back, but she didn't want Julian to face whatever he was talking about alone. He was human now, after all.
Dee spoke up, "Um Julian, no offense but your human now. And we are sort of notorious for having the best odds when we stick together. I'm going." "Me too," Audrey said, "I left my favorite heels there." Michael nodded his agreement. Zach and Summer were whispering. "We'll go too." Zach said putting his arm around Summer. Jenny looked at Julian, "Well what do you say? Can we come?" Julian took a deep breath. "Like Dee so nicely reminded everyone, I'm human now. So I can't protect you anymore, any of you. If you are willing to face that I won't stop you." Everyone silently agreed that they would stay together.
They paid their bill and made their way to their cars. When they got to Jenny's house they made their way to the front porch, Julian leading the way. He opened the door and let them file in ahead of him. Jenny was about to walk past Julian when he stopped her. "Jenny, it might get ugly in there. If it does I want you to run, fast and far, it doesn't matter where to, just get away." Jenny nodded, suddenly a lot more unsure of their decision to come along. He pulled he out of her thoughts and into a kiss. It was almost like that time in the cave where Jenny could feel his emotions. Jenny kissed him back suddenly worried this might be the last time she would have the chance. She wasn't ready for it to end, but Julian reluctantly pulled back anyway. "Just remember, I love you Jenny." He said before turning and walking inside.
