Memories- Part. 12 1/2 (the continuation after 2:00)
Disclaimer- I do not own any origional Higher ground characters but I do own all the new ones Like Jordan Thomas, his mom and stepdad Kendra and Jackson, his brother Dillion, sister Hailey Jade, and all others pertaining to his life. I also own Jill Trinity the mail lady
Okay so my comp screwed up and this really should go at the end of the chapter 12. It goes with it and that is why when chapter 13 is done it starts the way it does. So here is the rest of ch. 12.... Don't know how that happened!
2:00
Sophie had woken Peter up. They switched places and Peter sat in the chair. He wasn't tired anymore, but his knee hurt a lot! Sophie yawned and then laid down in the love seat. She looked at Peter, now she was over tired and knew that there was no way she was going to be able to fall asleep now.
"Try to sleep Soph." Peter said.
"Look how sweet he looks." Sophie said to Peter. Jordan had just moved over and was facing them,
"It's when they're awake that they cause trouble!" Peter said laughing.
Sophie felt a twinge of saddness and guilt. She knew Peter wanted to have kids so badly. But she couldn't have them. And she wanted to give them to peter. But she could not.
"I love you Sophie." Peter said to her as she yawned.
"I love you too Peter." She said happily.
"Now go to sleep." He said throwing one of the pillows at her.
Sophie put her head on the pillow and soon was asleep.
5:30
Peter and Sophie watched Jordan sleep. It was 5:30. The time they had both planned on watching him. The sun was not up yet and was still pitch black outside. Jordan slept peacefully, or so they thought.
*******DREAM********
Jordan stepped off the school bus. It had been a normal day, and he was actually happy. That was until he got home and saw both cars in the driveway. That meant big trouble. He took a deep breath at the bus stop. Trying to brace himself for what was ahead.
He looked at his watch- 4:30. He had stayed over to help with the elementary school play, but he knew his parents wouldn't buy that excuse. He tried to guess their time of arrival home. If they had gotten a call from school it would have been around one, if they had met for lunch and then never went back that would bring the time back to noon, or earlier even. Either way they were more then likely drunk by now.
He went through the back door, towards the back stairs, hoping to be able to sneak up them without a problem, without them seeing him. But Jordan's luck was against him, like it always seamed to be when it came to being at home. His mom and Jackson were both in the kitchen (which was right next to the stairs).
"Trying to sneak away, like you aren't guilty of anything Jordan?" Jackson said snidely.
Jordan knew better than to just continue up the stairs, he retraced his steps to face them at the bottom. "No sir." He said timidly, still trying to keep a distance away from them.
"We got another call from Mrs. Johnson today." Kendra said to him, coming closer.
Mrs. Johnson was one of Jordan's ex-friends mothers, Luke's mom to be more specific. He had Luke had had a fight a couple of weeks ago, when Jordan came to school with a black eye and Luke wouldn't leave him alone about it. He eventually got in a fight with Luke that ended in punches being thrown mainly (mainly at Jordan cause he didn't want to hurt Luke). But Mrs. Johnson called to tell Kendra and Jackson of the fight and Jordan was punished. But a couple of days ago Luke was acting up and he and Jordan had gotten in another fight.
"She said you and Luke had another fight." Kendra said. "What did we tell you about fighting Jordan?" she yelled at him coming closer.
"That it's wrong" he whispered.
"Right and?"
"That people who fight are bad and need to be punished." He said solemnly.
"That's right, seams like your on a role," Kendra said sarcastically.
Jordan backed up. "Don't you think it's redundant to punish hitting by hitting?" he mumbled to himself not thinking they would hear but they did. He realized that with a sharp smack in the face by his mom. Jackson was to far away at the moment to hit him.
"Don't you ever tell us what to do." She yelled hitting him and then punching him.
"Sorry." He said as she was on top of him. His eyes were burning from his face stinging.
"Aw, look the poor baby's crying." Kendra said mockingly. "Don't cry." She said punching him in the eye.
Jordan stumbled backwards onto the kitchen table, knocking over the bottles of raspberry Merlot and hard scotch that his parents had been drinking onto the floor. Breaking the bottles and spilling the contents all over the floor.
As soon as Jordan saw what he did he panicked. Jackson was furious, they were his bottles anyway.
"Sorry, sorry Jackson." He said bending down to pick up the shards of class. "Sorry."
Jackson came and picked him up by the collar.
"Please Jackson, I'm sorry. Please don't." He begged.
He could smell the liquor all over Jackson. And it made him sick to his stomach.
"Please, Jackson I'm sorry, Please don't hurt me." He cried.
"To late for apologies, do you know how much you cost me?" He yelled in Jordan's ear before throwing Jordan hard onto the ground. Jordan hit the tile withforce and the glass went into his skin.
"Please, don't hurt me Jackson, Stop please." He begged.
*******END DREAM ***********
BACK IN THE LODGE-
Peter and Sophie sat, it was peaceful in the room. That was until Jordan started moving all over the couch. The blankets were tangled around him now.
"Please, I'm sorry." Jordan moaned. "mmmuh....mmmuh." he moaned as if in pain.
"Please....mmmuh, don't hurt me, please...." The moaning continued.
"What do you think he's dreaming about?" Sophie whispered.
"I don't know." Peter answered.
"mmmuh... mmmuh." Jordan whined more.
"We should wake him up." Sophie said going over and shaking Jordan's shoulder.
Jordan semi woke up. "Nooo." He whined. As he felt a hand on him.. "Please, Jackson, Mom no.... don't please." He cried.
"Jordan it's us, Peter and Sophie." Sophie said.
The words hit Jordan like a ton of bricks. Had they heard him. He opened his eyes. Their faces said that he had.
"Are you okay Jordan?" Sophie asked.
"What was your dream about Jordan?" Peter asked.
"It was just a dream." Jordan said. 'yeah one that could just like destroy you, good going stupid.' He thought to himself.
"Are you sure your okay?" Sophie asked...
Jordan looked at her for a minute. "I.... I need to go to the bathroom." Jordan said not answering Sophie and Peter's questions directly. He felt sick.
"Sure go ahead." Sophie said letting him up.
Jordan got up and ran the way to the bathroom.
TO BE CONTINUED.
