Nothing's mind beside Amy, everything belongs to mister Singleton!
Them
Leaving and leavong again.
Amy's point of view.
Slowly, my mind came to life. My ear picked up sound, and there was a tiny ray of light burning my eyes,pleading them to open up for the new day ahead of me. I didn't want to. For a reason that was beyong me, I felt safe, I felt warm, good. Sighing, I made an attempt to get up,I couldn't
There was something heavy on my waist. I got scared. I knew I wasn't at my house anymore, but I couldn't stop the feeling. So I lay back down on the bed, and listened.There was breathing, slow,peaceful breathing. The arm on my waist gave a squeeze and I found myself coming closer to the person holding me. I heard a content sigh, and I turned my face slowly.
My heart started to beat faster, not from fear but from something else.Happiness I guess. It was Jack. The event of last night came back to me and I relax a bit. I took Jack arms and tried to put it away from my waist, he groaned and only put me closer to him. Has I didn't want to wake him up, I had another plan in my head.I loosened his grip a bit and started to lift my body out of his arms.When I was finished, I was up on the bed,panting.
I went into the livingroom,everything was silent, I guess everyone were asleep.I walked into the kitchen to see Miss Evelyn whispering on the phone.I like that 0ld woman a lot.While I was here she took lots of picture of us five and it was nice.She like picture I could tell.I stopped in midway when I saw her stopping a little yell.What was wrong? She nodded her head and put the phone down.I saw her hand come to her mouth, she seemed frightened.
-Miss Evelyn are you okay?
She jump at the sound of my voice and when she looked at me, her eyes started to water.
-What's the matter? I asked.
I felt someone came beside me.
-What's the matter ma?
Bobby went to his mother side,holding her shoulder as she cried.She came to me, taking my face into her hands.
-Oh my dear Amy, I'm so sorry.
I search the answer in her eyes, but there was too much feeling.What was she trying to tell me?Angel and Jeremiah then rushed to their mother side too, asking what was wrong,deep in my thought I never heard them coming.
-What? I said starting to be scared.What is it?
She took me into a big hug,I could feel that she was scared to hell.Fearful.I gave her a hug too,trying to comfort us both.
-Tell me.
She looked at me in the eyes.She was searching my eyes, for what , I'll never know, but that was just how she was,searching, trying to help.She took a deep breath, and I felt someone else come beside me, I knew it was Jack, only because my body relax when his was close.
-Your mother.
My heart started to beat faster, what had happen to her?
-Your mother...she went back with your father.You'll have to leave today.
Then, she cried into her sons shoulder. She knew my father,she knew what he did to me.I stared at her , eyes wide with fear. I didn't want to go back, I couldn't go back, I wouldn't survive it.Evelyn look at me , and we made a silent speach to each other. She knew she couldn't save me, I was not a foster kid, nor was I in the system, I had to save myself.
I had to run away.
-What time are they going to be here?
-In three hours dear. Hurry.
I ran to my room, pushing Jack out of the way.I grabbed my old bag and started to put stuff in it.I was panicked. When my bag was full, I went to my room door.They were all there.
-I...I couldn't bring everything I had...I'll..I'll come by some other time to...
-It's alright Dear. She said. You are welcome here anytime you want.We'll keep your room.
Then she went into her room, tears in her eyes.She wasn't good when it was time to say goodbye too people she loved.I understood her.I looked at the four brothers.Bobby came to me.
-I'll miss you Jarhead.
I had to smile at that. Bobby would always be Bobby.I hug him.
-I'll miss you too bastard.
He laughed too and went to his room. I knew what they were going to do.They would pretend to all be asleep, beside Evelyn, and tell I ran away in the night.Good plan. Angel gave me a hug, after that Jerry. It was Jack turn now.
We looked at each other for the longest time.I didn't know what to say. He was looking at the floor,not talking again.I walked toward him and smile a bit, a fake one.
-Well, I guess it's goodbye then.I said.
He nodded his head,looking at me.
-Take the kitchen door, no one will see you.
I nodded, feeling the tears come to my eyes. That's it? That's all he was going to say? Take the bloody kitchen door. I went outside and look at the house one more time. A tear ran down my cheek.I didn't know where to go. I had no place to go, no idea were I would get money, nor where I would eat.But I had to go. I had to leave, so I did.
I walked down the streets of Detroit, without looking back.A regret in my heart, a paintful regret. Jack. He didn't say anything to me, didn't give me a hint. He doesn't need me like I need him. After all, he had his brother.The night was starting to approach now and I shiver. I sat behing a garbage bag and tried to sleep. Hurting.
Jack Mercer point of view
I wanted to smack my fucking head into the counter. What the hell was I thinking? Saying something as stupid has that! I could have told her all I wanted to tell her but no, I had to go and spoiled everything.I hurt her, I know, it was in her eyes.
I sat down at the kitchen table, staring.That's how my brothers found me. I was staring, just like when I was a little boy. I never answered their question, I couldn't. I felt like a bloody coward, letting her walk away like that.But everything happened so fast!
Sometime later, her parents came.The woman seemed alright but the man. He seemed crazy. I recognize the look on his face, a look a foster parents gave me once.I knew what he wanted to do right now.I knew what I wanted to do to him, right now.I felt Angel hands taking my arms, fearful I would throw myself on the man. If he hadn't stopped me , I think I would have.
Ma asked them if they wanted to stay for dinner. They stayed.All diner I was staring at that freak of a father.I think I gave him the creeps. Good. He seemed glad to go away from me and my brothers after dinner.
Later, everyone went to sleep.I didn't. I took a bag, put food in it, money, a warm sheet from my bed and walk out the door.I needed to find her.
It was freaking cold outside.I called her name lots of time and no one answered. It's a small little town, but there were lots of place to hid.I was going to give up after three hour, but then I saw someone beside a garbage bag.I ran to the place and my heart almost skip a beat when I saw her shivering.
-Amy!
She opened her eyes in a hurry,afraid, afraid it was him.When she saw it was me, she relax. I took her hands, they were cold like the dead.
-Come with me.
She follow me without saying anything. It was so cold that her voice could have freeze, but really, I think she was just surprised.After what I said, who wouldn't?We enter a little motel and went to the counter.
-Hello, I want a nice , clean and comfortable room.
Within minutes, we where inside a cosy appartement.She was shivering from head to toe .
-Take your clothes off! I said.
-What?You're crazy!
-You're going to freeze!
I threw her some of my clothes I bring, I didn't had the courage to go in her room.
-Go and put them!
She didn't say a thing and went to change.She knew she would freeze.I was checking her bed, making it comfortable, when she came out.My breath stopped immediatly.She looked good.Too good maybe. I cleared my throat and motioned to her to come.She sat in the bed, still shivering and I took my sheet.I put it on her and started to rub her with it, to make her warm.She stopped me.
-Why did you came back?she said.
Wasn't it obvious? But I said nothing and rubbed her again.She stopped me once again.
-If you ain't gonna answer, well I'm walking away.
Frustrated, I groaned.She wanted to know why? She would.
-Because I love you stupid!
She looked at me with her big eyes.I caught her off guard,I don't think she tought it would come out so fast.
-I needed to know you were safe! I needed to know you weren't dead or something like that! I..I...bloody hell I'm not good at that!
I turned her around more roughly than I had intend too, but now my feeling were consuming me, I needed them out, now.I took her by the shoulder, forced her to face me.She would know everything.
-I love the way you can't stopped babbling ,'cause you talked so much you can talk for us both! I like the way you laughed, 'cause you're one of the only person I saw laugh so much! I love your fucking eyes and the way they twinkle,not like mine!I love your hair, the way they are straight,not like mine! I love everything about because you're nothing like me! An...and I don't even know if what I'm saying make sense so now shut up and let me take care of you for a change!
Amy's point of view
With each word he was saying my heart keep beating faster and faster.I just couldn't believe it.I just thought he needed me, not love me. What has he just said? That he like me because I'm nothing like him? Is he fucking crazy?
I just stared at him while he rubbed my back.He seemed, calm now, like he had lift something heavy off his chest. It's the first time he talk that much to me, he even beat last night.I smile to him and made him stopped once again.He looked at me and seeing the way his eyes were looking at me, with love, I couldn't stop myself. I kissed him.
He seemed surprise at first, but soon, he returned the kiss.He stopped rubbing my back to take my face between his hands.It was a gentle kiss, but when he took control of the kiss, it became wild, just like him.
He pushed me on the bed and my hands found their way into his hair, his neck, his back.I couldn't contain the moaned that escape my lips.
Well, let's just say that what was supposed to happen, happen that night.;)
Some time later
Since that day, Jack came everyday to see me.He bring me food and pay for my rent. I finally found a job so he won't have to do it anymore. He doesn't stay long because his family will started questionning him.But the time he's here, it's great.We make love everytime. I never thought he could be so tender then wild.But it felt great anyway.
Today,I'm scared thought. I just learned something that I need to tell him. I hope he won't freaked out.
So I waited.I waited and waited but he never came.Were was he? I started to get worried. When he couldn't come, he called at least.Maybe something bad happen to him. The anxiety was eating me alive so I decided to call the Mercer.
-Hello?
-Miss Evelyn? It's Amy.
-Oh my gosh! Hello dear! How are you? Are you safe?
-I'm good and yes I'm safe.I don't want to be rude or anything but can I talk to Jack? I needed to tell him something I didn't tell him when I left.
There was a pause.
-Miss Evelyn?
-Jackie's not here Amy, he went away.
-What do you mean he went away?
-He went to Los Angeles. To be a rockstar.
I gripped the phone.He was gone. He was gone and he didn't even told me. I think I stopped breathing at one point, but I'm not sure.
-Amy? Amy are you okay?
I wanted to cry. The bastard. He had what he wanted and now he was gone. Men were all the same. I need him and he was gone. I didn't let my tears fall, I wouldn't cry for or because of him anymore.Jack Mercer will be erase from my mind.I won't think about him anymore. He's not part of my life anymore...well, there was still one problem to be resolve.
-Miss Evelyn? I need your help please.
