"Who Alli? Who was it that did this to you?" I asked rushing to her as she broke down in tears all over again.
"It was Jake." She barely made a sound as she said it but she fell to her knees and Cody and I fell with her. I was rubbing her back and Cody had his arms around her.
"Who's Jake" I mouthed to Cody, seriously confused.
"One minute" he mouthed back. Who's Jake? Why did he think that it would be okay for him to do that to do that to my brother and Alli? She was basically my little sister. I was going to make this 'Jake' pay.
"Alli, are you sure it was Jake? I mean Jake isn't here. He's in Australia." Cody stated in a soft way. I think he was trying not to make her blow up at him. It didn't work.
"I know what I saw Cody. It was Jake, he ran at Adam and started fighting with him, but he pushed me out of the way first and I landed on the ground and passed out. Not before I saw him though." She explained, her sobs calming. "I know it was him Cody. I know it"
"Alli , honey. I think you should maybe go to sleep. I can tell this has been traumatic, we can all talk about it later when both you and Adam wake up, okay?" I asked. She nodded her head. I took a really good look at her. He usual pin straight blonde hair had gotten all tangled, her perfect make up had been smeared everywhere, her clothes were all dirty, well my clothes but I didn't care as long as she was okay and her smooth clear skin was stained with tears. "Come on and I'll take you to Adam's room."
"I'll be back in a minute" I mouthed to Cody. We both helped her up and she just fell limp into my arms and I basically carried her to Adams room and laid her down beside Adam. She was already asleep by the time her head hit the pillow. I looked at them both laying there. Alli had instinctively rolled into Adams side and he had put his arm over her in his sleep. It was so cute. It had me wondering what Cody and I had against them being together.
I sighed and left the room as quietly as I could and shut the door and made my way back to Cody. I found him back in the livingroom sitting on the sofa with his head in his hands and his leg jiggling up and down. I could tell he was uptight so I climb in behind him on the sofa and knelt down with my legs on either side of him. He jumped as he felt me behind him, he was so wrapped up in his own thoughts he didn't even hear me come in.
"Are you okay?" I asked, concern clear in my voice. I'm so worried about him, he hasn't been stress free once since I meet him. I started rubbing his back and shoulders and immediately felt him relax against my hands.
"Uhhh...not really..." he said.
"Do you want to talk about it?" I asked not wanting to push him because he would just clam up if I did.
"I just don't see how Jake could do that to Alli? I mean for one he's in Australia. Two he's my best friend and Three...why would he want to hurt her?" he wondered more to himself than to me.
"Are you sure he didn't come over here to see you or something and you just forgot when he was supposed to be here?" I asked trying to think of any plausible explanation of why he would be here.
"I don't remember arranging for him to come here. I haven't really spoke to him since what happened into America. Every time he was he flew in from Australia to America to see me I was always passed out from something and once I woke up I went out to do something so I would pass out again. I guess he only really had Alli to hang out with." I could feel him tense up again as he explained to me. I rubbed harder which seemed to help a little more.
"I don't really know what to say to make you feel better..." I said slowly. That was the truth, I was stumped.
"Why would he even want to hurt her? She never did anything to him." He said through clenched teeth.
"Cody, shhh calm. But if it was him...he hurt Adam more than he hurt Alli" I said.
"I know that. I just don't know why and it's really starting to frustrate me" he clenched his fists at his side. I took my hands off his back and grabbed his hands and put them on my thighs. He flattened them out. I was scared he would hit something if I just left them. He started rubbing them up and down. He started to calm down as I put my head on his shoulders. He turned to look at me and I looked back at him. He kissed my lips, it was short and sweet but it was enough to make my heart pound that little bit harder and faster.
"How about we just forget about it until they wake up?" I suggested. "At least then we will have all of the details and won't be guessing anymore..."
"I guess you're right" he sighed. I was trying to act like the calm one but inside I felt exactly the same way he did. I was worried about Adam, Alli and Cody. I was worried that 'Jake' would come back seeking for more of a fight? Would he fight with Cody and I if we were there? What would we do if that were to happen? All of these questions were whizzing around in my head and to be honest I feared for Adam and Alli's lives.
My thoughts got interrupted as I heard someone knock the door. Cody gave me a look as I got up to see who was there. It couldn't be mum, she was still at work and she would have a key anyway.
"Be careful" he said. At the door stood a blonde guy.
"Uhh..Hi, how can I help you?" I asked. I had a severe case of Deja vu. It was almost the same as the night that Cody showed up at my door.
"Hi, My names Jake" he replied with a smile. My heart stopped. Oh dear God.
