You finally find out Alex's secret. You finally know what happens. Chapters 11-13 will have you gasping for breath and not to tute my oh the horn, but chapter 20 and up will have you shocked, hell, I didn't even know you could put a twist, within TWIST, within a twist, but I'll give you a hint, like I said before, read the lyrics, they all mean something dark, and especially this on, by fall out boy,( woot wott Pete!) gives away chapter 11. Luvs like woah! Oh, especially the second verse, and if you read it and go "No…you didn't" I am nodding right now, because I did. I did and it rocked. Rocked like woah
Chapter 9: Dance Dance
She says she's no good
With words but I'm worse
Barely stuttered "A joke of a romantic"
Or it just stuck to my tongue
Weighed down with words too over dramatic
Tonight is "It cant get much worse"
Vs "No one should ever feel like…."
"He didn't hurt me" Michael whispered, sitting down on the bed," Just get him away from me…please"
The officers blinked at Michael before turning to Jake, but he was already gone.
Marco sighed and walked over to Michael, with fear in his eyes," Do you want to see Jake again?"
"No…I think I'm cured" Michael smiled a little. " I think I'm okay"
Marco smiled but then frowned as Michael slowly fell backwards and hit the pillow. Doctor Turner pushed past Marco and pulled out his stethoscope and pressed it against his chest. He listened for a few minutes before looking at Michael's arm and glancing down," Where did that come from?"
There was a red mark over his wrist's vein.
"Alex, I'm sorry. Pick up the phone" Jake said quickly, breathlessly," Alex, please, I need someone to talk to…I did it, I did what you told me and now it's even worse. I don't feel any better, and now…I think, he can finally move on. I can't let him do that…Alex, pick up the fucking phone! I said I was sorry! I didn't mean to say that-" The answering machine clicked off.
He slammed the phone down to see Remy smirking in the corner at him.
"What the fuck are you smiling at?" Jake asked, venom leaking from his very lips.
"It's just amusing to see you in a sheer and utter state of panic" Remy shrugged, smiling wider.
Jake was very close to punching Remy himself but he stopped, he didn't need this.
He didn't deserve this!
He looked over at the phone and tilted his head to the side.
Why don't you show me some spine That you've been saving for his mattress I only want sympathy in the form of you Climbing into bed with me
Michael picked up the phone, rubbing his wrist slightly and whispering into it," Hello Jake"
"How'd you know it was me?" Jake asked, shocked.
"I just know" Michael replied, his voice some what different.
Calm.
At peace.
"Well….aren't you going to hang up on me?" Jake asked worridly, glancing to the floor and hiding his eyes from Remy, who was gitting a major kick out of all of this.
"No…unlike you, Jakey, I can actually handle a real complication without…violence"
"I'll make it up to you" Jake said quickly.
"Make what up?"
"Everything" Jake stuttered out," I'll fix- fix everything for you"
"Oh that's nice, but I think that you should just stay away from me" Michael said, sitting up a little when he saw Robert coming into the room, holding a bowl of soup and pudding.
"Stay away?" Jake repeated," What?"
"Jakey…we're not married" Michael said a little chuckle in his voice," We're not being forced to be together"
"Yes, yes we are. We have to be together"
"You sound like me" Michael rolled his eyes.
"Well, I wish you'd take this more seriously! What kind of medication do they have you on?"
"Painkillers" Michael smiled.
Jake slapped his hand to his head," Figures, how many did you take?"
"Oh, I dunno…1...6, does it matter?" Michael smirked," All I know is that I've never felt better….felt happier…."
"More drugged up" Jake murmured.
"Huh?" Michael asked happily.
"I said I'm happy that you're happy"
"Yep, I haven't been this happy since the day that you left me!" Michael smiled again, adjusting the settings on his bed.
Jake's eyes fell," Really?"
"Never better, cause you see, I was just finally getting over the fact that you are the most selfish arrogant asshole to ever walk the earth and that all you care about was yourself, Rory and your dad and that I ultimately have no space in your heart until you finally realise that he's not coming back and that you will never ever see him again." Michael looked up at the ceiling," So Jakey I think I should go, Robby's bringing me pudding! And you know how much I love that"
"I'll make it up to you" Jake whispered as Michael hung up.
He looked at Remy again through slanted eyes and then looked at the pocket knife at the end of the dresser…
"Hey, there's the asshole that tired to out road rage me" Marco said, looking at the boy in front of him on the line in the store. He was arguing with some old woman at the counter.
Him, Ryan and Andy decided to go shopping for clothes since Halloween was almost there. Marco and Andy had decided to dress up as matching dance whores while Ryan decided on either dressing up as Justin from queer as folk ( which wouldn't be hard due to the fact that he was already A. gay, B. and artist and C. handsome as hell) or Donnie Darko. Marco inched up closer, momentarily dropping the pink glitter and mascara into Andy's hand and listening to the conversation between the two of them.
"This boy tried to sexually harass me!" The old woman cried.
"The hell I did!" The boy yelled," No one wants your bony ass lady, and besides, there's one tolken reason why I don't want her!"
"And that would be?" The cleck, cute aisle 6 guy asked, glancing over at Marco and winking at him.
"That…" They hesitated.
"Is there a problem here?" Marco asked, walking over to the boy and leaning on his shoulder casually.
"Hey, you're that asshole-" He began when Marco stepped on his foot," Quiet babe when I talk. Hey Shawn, what's the problem?"
The clerk, Shawn glanced at Marco and then at Ryan," Weren't you dating him last week?"
"I rotate boys" Marco shrugged," He's mines this week. And that lady thinks that everyone is molesting her!"
They turned around but the old woman was already gone, making off with the boy's food.
"Damn, my cookies" He muttered, eyes falling to the floor.
"Marco?" Shawn asked," I thought you said you were taking a break from dating…"
"I am" Marco smiled, he looked at the boy," Sorry babe, we're over. But hey, look at it this way, at least you didn't walk on us having pre sex together in a dorm room and then ultimately breaking up on me because I wasn't in the mood for a semi threesome relationship" He winked and threw an arm over Shawn's shoulder, "When do you get off?"
"Now" Shawn smirked, throwing his apron to the floor and guiding Marco out the store," You like Chinese?"
"Boy, do I ever" Marco said, mouthing over his shoulder at the boy," I am the better person" as he walked out.
Ryan blinked," How does he do that?"
Andy sighed," I don't know, but that guy looked hot. And now we have to pay for all of this"
"Jake, put the knife down" Remy said cautiously.
"Why?" Jake whispered," Why the hell should I?"
"Because…people love you, dumbass" Remy said, staring at the knife.
Jake had it positioned at the very tip of his neck, right under one of his veins. His eyes were red and teary and his stature was so rigid and boney, that it almost looked like some sort of coat rack. "Tell me why I can't do this…everybody's right, all I do is cause pain"
"So killing yourself is not the way…"
Jake snorted," Fuck you, Remy, you just don't want to be questioned when they find out that I'm dead."
"No" Remy shook his head," You amuse me!"
"Great, another person who enjoys my show"
"What?"
"Welcome to my own little conspiracy theory, Remy. My own little façade, something that I can control, like I really wanted to be this way…" Jake whispered, tears welling up." I didn't want to be like this!"
Alex opened the door," I got your message" His step faltered," What the fuck are you doing?"
"Hi Alex" Jake said, eyes to the floor again.
"Jake, put the knife down" Alex said, inching closer.
"You Don't understand what happened" Jake whispered.
"I've been through it…and worse, please, Jake, I need you, remember?"
"No….you don't need me" Jake shook his head," Nope, not at all. Alex, you don't need me"
"Jake…please…" Alex trailed off, getting closer until he was right next to him. He slowly reached up…
"Don't try that shit on me!" Jake snapped, pushing the knife slightly into his neck, he flinched." Stop tyring to save me!"
"You saved me!" Alex said, whispered, lost, his eyes watering," Jake, I owe you so much…"
"When I got there it was too late."
"I could've been dead…."
"I know…" Jake stopped.
"Jake…when I was raped….I felt horrible, as if my whole body was dirty, horrible, I wanted to die…and you helped me…so much…please, let me help you" Alex whispered," I turst you, trust me, please?"
Jake looked at Remy, who was shocked that the cocky Alex was raped and then back at Jake, who was shocked that he said all of that so openly. He dropped the knife and colasped into Alex's arms, crying until he couldn't breathe.
Alex just stood there holding him.
