Jake stopped at the trapdoor and left his motorcycle at the park
across the street. What if she didn't feel the same about him as he felt
about her? No he couldn't think that she even said she wanted him not his
bed. She had said it not him. He had to convince her he did love her.
That's all he wanted that's all he planned to do then take her away from
this place, this war, away from Chris.
Ann sat in her room by the balcony. Where was he, he said to be here for him and now he wasn't? Was he doing this on purpose, setting her up like this? No she saw the love in his eyes and he wanted more then anything to be with her. Ann jumped when she heard a knock on the door and saw Jake enter her room. She didn't even need to move because he was next to her in a moment.
"Ann please just don't say a word I need to tell you this and you can't stop me half way through cause then I won't be able to go on...' Ann nodded and then strode up to him and wrapped her arms around his waist.' Ann I love you I don't know how it happened or why all I know is that being with you made me as happy as I was a long time ago. I haven't felt that way since I was seven."
"Jake I know you do. You can't hide it from your eyes. You spoke to me last night and gave me your heart. I love you too and I know that there is hurt in you. I want to make it go away."
"Come away with me from this place. I'll take care of you and I have a place we can stay. I need to show it to you even if you don't want to be with me. You need to understand though. Please come with me. Now."
"A-alright. I will I'll come with you just let me get some things."
Jake walked to the balcony and back holding several saddlebags in his hands.
"Anything you can get in here."
While Ann took care of all her items Jake cracked open her door and watched from the slit in the door. No one was seen so he went to her bathroom and looked around. Her grabbed her toothbrush and went back to her. She packed it and finished with the last saddlebag. He threw them over his shoulders and opened the door to the balcony. After she grabbed her jacket and put it on she took one last look around the room. It was her old life. Something she wanted to rid herself of only to quickly. Jake loved her and she loved him and nothing would stop them from being together. She stepped onto the balcony and over the edge Jake helped her to the ground and they made their way to the trapdoor.
Standing beside Jake in the night filled her with something so strong she couldn't help the smile that formed and gave her new hope. He was her life her future. When he turned to her she stepped up to him and he took her in his arms.
"Are you sure you want this?"
"Hum... More then sure. I love you."
Jake leaned in and kissed her gently then more demanding. He needed her now here. No not here in the open. She loved him and it comforted him, only for a moment though. From over Ann's head he saw another motorcycle pull up to the trapdoor. Chris. No what is he doing? He had to move and get Ann away now before it all ended.
"Jake come here with me. Please there is something I want to show you." Ann pulled him over to the castle when he saw a blanket pulled out underneath it there was enough room for him and her both but nothing more. She tugged him under the castle and kissed him. He met her with all the love he felt for her.
She meant to do this. Oh god who was this woman he loved. She was spontaneous and beautiful and sweet. Oh he wanted her and he'd have her with her permission.
"Ann only if you want this."
"Jake I want this. I want you I love you. Don't you feel the same for me?"
"Yes oh god yes."
What Jake did right there with Ann he would never forget. It was pure and meaningful. She loved him the only woman who ever felt the same for him.
Ann woke the next morning with Jake asleep next to her. Though she wanted to lay in his embrace the rest of her life she had to wake him people would be arriving at the park in a couple of hours. It's was only 3 in the morning. Oh he looked so simple in his act. Sleep made him look peaceful and she wanted nothing more then to watch him but she couldn't.
Jake felt her move but he wouldn't give away that he didn't sleep. He couldn't sleep with everything he felt for her. She slept through Chris's hollers in the night. She slept through his motorcycle tearing through the park in his anger. Chris now knew she was gone and soon he would connect the two of them. He wasn't about to tell her they had to leave cause they weren't safe. She nudged him but he only turned on his side and took her in his arms.
"Jake please people will be arriving here and I don't want us to be seen like this."
"Ummm... I don't care just lay with me for awhile."
"No let's go so we aren't stopped."
Jake and Ann dressed and made their way back to the motorcycle and got on.
"Ready Ann?"
"I'm ready for anything as long as you're with me."
Ann held onto Jake as they rode out of the city. She was with the man she loved and nothing would take him away. They would be with him till death did them part. He never even had to say them words because it was true.
