After her bath she put on a pair of sweats and a tight black tank top, she left her hair down and put a tiny bit of makeup on, toner & mascara, she curled her eyelashes too. She had liked Jay, she wanted too look good, but she wasn't about to put on a prom dress or anything. And it wasn't like she was going out, she hoped he wouldn't just go out with his friends and leave her...She went in the living room and turned on a movie, that she found in his living room, it wasn't of his collection. Probaly his mom's because it was French Kiss, one of Emma's favorites too.
Jays POV
Jay was on his way home from work when he decided to get some dinner for Emma and him. Normally he'd just eat whatever was there, but he didn't want Emma to have to eat frozen pizza or a sandwhich, he didn't know what she was used to at home. He drove to a kinda expensive chinsese restaurant and ordered a little bit of everything and then went by the liqour store by the ravine, where they didn't know he was only 17, and bought some wine coolers and a bottle of brandy. Jay drank 1/3 of bottle of brandy before he headed home. It was routine. He didn't have a problem though, he just liked to drink(so he thought.)
When he got home he walked in to see Emma laying on the couch watching a movie, he hoped to God she didn't get it out of his collection...otherwise she'd see his pornography...and that'd be embaressing.
"Emma!" Jay called her into the kitchen.
She got up and greeted him in the kitchen. "Hey, how..was work?"
"Eh. Lame as usual. Spinner is driving me crazy, I shouldn't have told him you were staying at my house, he's getting the wrong idea."
"And what's that?"
"That...you and I are together, that I like you and stuff."
Emma felt sick to her stomach.."Oh yeah.." She liked Jay, and she thought he had some feelings for her. The other night at her house he had liked her, why would things change? Other...than the fact that she'd blew him off about Chester..She shouldn't have done that, but she already felt guiltly! Ugh.Emma's going crazy over this stuff.
"I bought some dinner, I hope that you weren't too uncomfortable. Anybody come by?"
"No."
"Good."
"Why is that good." She said laughing.
"Don't worry about it." His sounded annoyed
"Um..okay."
"I haven't asked you about anything, so I don't want you trying to get somethin outta me I'm not going to tell okay!" It was the alcohol that made him raise his voice, that and the fact that he didn't want Emma trying to get into his business.
Emma just sat down at the table and started to eat. Jay sat down to and they ate in silence.
"You smell like brandy." AfterChester being drunk she didn't want to be around a drunk person. And she didn't want Jay to be a drinker.
Jay didn't say anything, he just reached in his coat pocket and pulled out the bottle and took a big drink looking right in Emma's eyes. She felt mad and that he was being disrespectful.
"Well that explains why I guess."
"I bought some wine coolers too, since you're a girl and all."
"And girls can't take hard alcohol huh?"
"Yep." He said it with a smirk.
"We can too take it, we just don't want to get drunk too fast, besides, I don't drink."
"Whatever. Listen I'm going out tonight. 10 or so. Don't have anyone over when I leave and if you leave don't wake up my mom when you come in."
He didn't know why he was going out of his way to be rude. With the mix of alcohol and lust for Emma he was a mess.
"I won't be leaving. But I'd like to meet your mom, since I'm going to be around here and stuff."
"Don't worry about meeting her, infact, I don't even want her to meet you."
"Why not?"
"Don't worry about it."
Emma was getting made about that 'don't worry about it' shit. She got up and left the room, locking herself in his room. He went after her and banged on the door when he realized it was locked.
"Emma!"
"Leave me alone! You are being such an asshole and for no reason!" She yelled through the door.
"What do you expect? For me to be Craig Manning and stay up all night writing you a song? I'm Jay fucking Hogart, the one and fucking only, I give chicks STDs and I get drunk. Get over it! If you don't like it leave!"
So she was going to. She got out her duffel bag and stuffed all her things in it with him still banging on the door. When she had all of her stuff packed she opened the door and yelled in his face, "What? Is it because I don't have BIG TITS AND A SMALL ASS! Is that why you can't be nice to me!" She stormed passed him leaving him to wonder...did she see my movies? She started walking from his house to the hotel. And he didn't go after her, he let her leave. He finished his bottle of brandy and passed out.
Emmas POV
What the fuck is his problem! Everyone in this world just treats me like shit, like I'm some kind of prostitute. I...this is it. It's over. I'm through...
She checked into the Paradise Inn around 8 o clock. The walk was long and she was tired. When she got in her room she called her house when her mom picked up she hadn't said anything, but she heard her mom scream, "Emma! Emma is that you!" Before Emma could start to cry and spill her guts to her mom about everything she hung up the phone. She rolled over on to the bed and went to sleep, alone, scared, and full of guilt, she slept throughout the night wondering why things were so bad, and thinking that she had obviously deserved them.
Jays Dream
"I held her hand too tight..too hard to make it right..so Icould sleep at night..." These words played in the background of the entire dream, Buffalo Tom's Late at Night. Jay was driving at high speeds with Sean, Alex, and Ellie in the car like old times. They were all drunk and laughing have a great time when Alex screamed in his ear TRAIN! The next thing Jay knew he was riding in the train while a car had hit it, everyone was screaming but the train stayed on the track and they were safe. He saw 4 spirits lift from the car. He heard a voice say, "Oh my God! I can' t believe they didn't see the train going by!" He turned to see it was Emma. "Emma.." He said softly. "Yeah?" She laughed. "I know it scared me too, but we are going to be okay." She then leaned in to kiss him. He was startled but kissed her back. "Wow.." Is all he could say. "You must be really shook up. It's okay baby." She held his hand. He felt a sense of security and love. It was nice, not chaotic like being with Alex and them
Dreams are signs, and mixed versions of reality. What does Jay's dream mean? It's obvious. It means ditch your bad boy ways and be with Emma!
The next part will take place in the morning. And for those of you who didn't like the Chester part, I put up a warning, you didn't take it into consideration. Your bad. There are worse stories than mine on this site.
