Thank you so much for the reviews=) Again, it means a lot to me my friends.
Well here is chapter numero 4 Vanessa's pov!
hope you like it and thanks for reading...
What was I thinking? Why did I just tell Jack all those things? It is as if you bared your soul to him! Vanessa… you're a big fuck up you know that?
"Vanessa… you're a real fuck up you know that?" My father suddenly says… oh joy.
"What dad…?" I ask in annoyance.
"Your mother was worried sick about you," He snaps.
"I was out with a friend," I answer.
"Why didn't you call Vanessa…?" My mother asks.
"Mom please… good night" I pout. I walk upstairs to my room and take out my journal. Pathetic right… but it keeps me through the day.
Gosh…
I must be the dumbest girl alive… how could I have just confessed my feelings to Jack like that? Sure… I did not say I Love You, but I was CLOSE all right. I did not want to feel this. I face death than feel this. Jack Napier I curse the day I meet you… yet my life would not be so complete without you. Maybe… just maybe you like me too. I feel it when you talk to me, yet… it might just be you playing games. Well good night journal.
I close my diary and hide it on a little space I made on the floor.
"Vanessa, why do you always talk to your father that way?" My mother asks from the doorway.
"Because mom… he hates me and I hate him," I snap.
"He doesn't hate you sweet-"
"Then why does he want to send me to an asylum…?" I said with a smile on my face. What am I… crazy?
"He just cares about your health, that's all"
"So you think that about me as well… just because I shot my cousin one time?" I ask.
"You were young…" She answers. She sits down on my bed next to me.
"I knew what I was doing… besides the b*tch had it coming. She stole my ten dollars" I chuckle and add, "besides I only shot her on her foot"
"Sweetie don't talk like that, it worries me," she says in a begging tone.
"Then skip this conversation mom, I'm tired" I said, hoping my mother would leave.
"Who was that boy you were with?" She asks, changing the conversation.
"His name is Jack…" I could not help but gush.
"Aw… you seem to like him a lot," She says, pinching my cheek.
"Mom, we're just good friends" Why was I acting so pathetic?
"Love is beautiful sweetie, just remember that… yet it could lose you. Love turns you into a person you don't even know," She says.
"Really…" I mumble. She gets up and lightly kisses me on my forehead.
"Good night sweetie…" She says, leaving my room.
1 week later Saturday…
It has been another week of school, but this time there was no Jack. Boy did I miss him, yet it was for the better. Jack was confusing my mind, and this week without him has actually been peaceful. With him near, it felt as if my heart could not breathe… and I hated that feeling. I hated him for that…
As I was eating breakfast in the kitchen with mother and Melody, the phone rings.
"Hello…?" My mother says. "It's June sweetie…" She informs me. I roll my eyes as my mother hands me the phone.
"What's up June…?" I ask.
"Wanna go to the mall today, I'll buy" She asks.
"Yeah why not… but what's the catch" I giggle.
"There's no catch Vanessa… why do you always think that when I wanna buy our lunch?" She giggles rather nervously.
"Because I know you…" I reply.
"Well Chris will be there that's why"
"What's up with you wanting me with Chris?" I snap.
"I promised myself I was going to be cupid for my best friends and you're one of them"
"No thanks June doll but I'ma have to skip"
"Please… I beg you, come on it's Saturday and besides maybe this will lighten you up!" She says.
"What do you mean lighten my up?"
"I know you've been moping that Napier hasn't shown up all week in school," She teases.
"You're seeing things…" I snap.
"Look he's no good for ya… now Chris, he really likes ya"
"Fine I'll meet ya at your house at twelve," I said, just to shut her up.
"Go great Nessa…! You won't regret it!" She yells with glee.
"Bye June dear…" I reply. June hangs up the phone.
"What was that all about sweetie?" My mother asks as soon as I hang up the phone.
"June and her crazy ways… you already know her" I reply.
"Just be safe sweetie… well I have to go to work. Make sure you take Melody to your aunt's house" She gets up and walks towards the living room.
"Sure thing Mom…" I said in a high-toned voice.
"I don't like auntie… she talks mean about daddy" Melody says as soon as mother closes the door.
"Don't believe in what auntie says… she just hates daddy because he won the football bet they made" I reply. I didn't want my sister knowing that our daddy is actually tied with the mafia. That is why our aunt hates him… ha.
Suddenly, someone knocks on the kitchen door; I turn around and see Jack standing there. I walk up to the door and open it.
"Jack…?"
"Missed me doll face?" He asks. I could not help but hug him.
