No One Could Have Guesses
A/N: Sorry for the short chapters. I'm trying to hurry the story up a little.
11- Heading Home
Sunday morning rolled around and Jessica found herself in an all too familiar place.
After running from Sean she walked for hours and headed to the playground. Whenever she ran away that's where she would go. She had realized how comfortable the bright yellow slide at the park was when her mother died, because she had spent a lot of time running away. It was no secret that she was there, but it was her spot, the one place she could be alone from the world.
She sat up and looked around wondering what time it was. When she spotted Sean's car. 'What the hell?'
"I was waiting for you to wake up. I've been here for atleast 20 minutes. Couldn't wake you though. Your so peaceful and calm when you sleep. I figured now was the best time to take advantage of that. Anyway are you hungry? Because I am starving." Sean said from his seat on the bench, the sarcasm strong in his tone.
At his first word Jessica shot up and looked around a bit startled, but once she spotted him she walked over to the swings and sat down.
"I'm really sorry. You know that?" she was truly sincere.
"I know but that doesn't change anything. And I'm sorry but your going to have to stay with your grandfather for a little while." the joking mood was gone, and he was left with the serious tone he always used during conversations like this.
"How long is a little while?" she was hoping for a couple weeks.
"I think for the first half of the year. So you can come back for your second semester at school. And I've called Uncle Tom he's clearing out the guest bedroom for you. And I've called the school so Monday is gonna be your last day." his heart sank lower with every word he said. Jessica was the absolute only person that had his effect on him, and there was nothing he could do about it as hard as he tried.
Jessica could feel the tears welling in her eyes. "Can we please go home now?"
Sean just nodded and they headed for the car.
