Is Love Real? -Chapter 3
Is Arielle in love with Jake? Or just his attention?
Chapter 3
Jake's P.O.V
I got excited when my parents told me that Arielle will be staying with us for a couple of months and that her parents are going to Hawaii. I cleaned up my room, not knowing if she'll be happy about this transaction. I haven't seen her all week and I've been worried about her and it's killing me. John told me about how he saw her neck at black and blue and her cheeks are both bruised.f I got so angry that I trashed my room. It's Friday so she's coming tomorrow. I cancelled my date with Brittany that day so that I could spend time with Arielle. I know it wasn't right, but she deserves more attention than what she's getting right now. She's living a pretty rough life.
Once I was done fixing my room up, I took a shower to get ready for soccer practice. I always blow off my steam in games, and practices. My teammates call me The Raging Bull. It kind of fits, but yet, it kind of doesn't.
I finish getting cleaned up, forgetting that I'm going to get all dirty again, but I don't care. I run downstairs and into my car and drove to practice.
Arielle's P.O.V
I bring my two bags downstairs and walk into the kitchen. I found my mom sitting at the table with her head down. I just ignore her and grab a cup to get a drink. I pour water in it and drink all of it in a few drinks. I leave it in the sink and walk out of the kitchen. I ran into Albert and he grabbed my arm. "Watch where you're going." I glared at him and instantly regret it. He slapped me across my face hard. I clench my jaw to keep from crying out in pain. "Don't you ever look at me like that again, bitch." I exploded.
"You have no right calling me that! You don't deserve to live. You're a bastard who should go to hell." His face turned red and grabbed my hair. He dragged me to the basement and threw me down the stairs. I groan in pain and try to get up. He kicked me down and spit in my face. He leans down and grabs my neck and squeezes for what seems like an hour. I start choking and tears stream down my face. I thought he would not let go, but the doorbell rang and I knew that Jake was here. He reluctantly let me go and looked down at me with so much hate and disgust. "When we come back, I will finish what I started. Now clean yourself up before you go." He stomped up the stairs and I got up slowly. I move my arms and cry out in pain. My left arm is broken and I tuck it to my side. I wipe my tears and wipe all of the dirt off of my clothes. I walk up the steps and close the basement door quietly.
I walk into the living room and do my I'm-happy-with-my-family smile. But deep down, I hate them with all of my heart. I walk past Albert and glare at him again. I walk to Jake's side grab one bag and go to Jake's car. I put it in his trunk and walks back to the house and grab the other one. Albert laughed. "Why didn't you take them both at the same time." I ignored him and put the other one in the trunk. I slammed it down with one hand and opened the front door.
A pretty girl was in there already and I blushed in embarrassment. "I-I'm sorry I didn't see you in there." I slowly closed it and sat in the back. A few seconds later, Jake came out and got in the car and drove off. There was an awkward silence for a bit until I broke it. "Can you go to the hospital please?" The pretty girl turned around and gave me a confused look and saw my neck. She gasped and covered her mouth. Jake looks at me in the mirror and nodded, not questioning why, but I could see the anger in his eyes.
It took fifteen minutes to get there and I instantly got out of the car and went to the front desk. "Excuse me ma'am, can I get a cast for my broken arm?" The lady nodded and called for a nurse. The lady's last name was Smith. Which was odd, since my dad's last name was Smith. A small hope flared inside of me. "Excuse me, are you married?" She hesitated and then shook her head. I sighed and that little hope was crushed. It's not like I want to see him again anyways. Ok not true, I miss him soo much.
A few minutes later, Jake and Pretty girl came in. They were holding hands and knew that she was his girlfriend. I sighed in disappointment and turned back to Ms.Smith. "How much longer? My arm hurts really bad." She sighed and called for the nurse again. This time they came in and took me to a room. The nurse was a guy in his early twenties. I was expecting an older woman, but oh well.
Twenty minutes past and I was ready to go and fill out the paperwork. I walked up to the front desk again and took the paperwork from her and sat in the far corner from Jake and his girlfriend. She was snuggling against him. There was a pull in my heart and it hurt. I focused on the paperwork and finished it in fifteen minutes.
I walked up to the front desk again and saw that Ms.Smith was making out with a guy in a suit. His back was turned to me so I just waited for them to finish up. Once they were finished, she saw me standing there and her cheeks reddened. She walk up to me and took the papers from my hand. The guy turned and walked up behind Ms.Smith. I looked up at him and I froze. The guy that she was making out with was Josh Smith. My dad.
He looked up and his eyes widened. "Arielle? Is that you?" He ran around the desk and came up to me and flinched. "What happened to you? A boyfriend? If it is, then tell me his name and I'll put him away. I snapped back to reality and was angry. I stepped back from him and bumped into Jake, who was standing behind me. He came around to shake dad's- Josh's hand. "Hello Mr.Smith, how are you?" Josh smiled and shook his hand, but his eyes fell on me. There was hurt in them but I didn't care. "Good, and you Jake?"
"Excellent sir, you know Arielle?" I didn't want to hear the answer so I just walked out of the building and towards Jake's car. It was locked so I waited outside. A few minutes later, Jake and his girlfriend came out. Of course Josh came trailing after him. "Could you unlock the car already?" Jake looked between me and Josh and only unlocked it for him and his girlfriend. "What the hell!" They got in quickly but didn't drive off. I huffed and looked back at Josh who was just standing there, "What do you want?" He looked down like a wounded animal. "I just wanted to know how you were doing?" Tears streamed down my face. "Why do you care all of a sudden? You never contacted me when you left with that..that whore!" He got angry when I called her a whore. He grabbed my non-broken arm and squeezed it. "OW! You're hurting me, stop...please stop." I start crying hard.
He let go and stared at his hand and back at me. "A-Arielle I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you." Jake came out of his car and hugged me. I pushed him away and glared at him. "I hate you," I look at Jake and then Josh, "I hate all of you." I ran away from both of them as fast as I can, not caring where I go.
Jake's P.O.V
I drove around with Brittany, looking for Arielle. We looked everywhere for her but couldn't find her. "Why are you so worried about her anyway? She probably wants to be alone, so let's go back to your place and have some fun." I got irritated with her. She always thinks about herself and it's getting really annoying. "Brittany, I think I'm just going to drop you off at your house."
"What why? What did I do?" I shook my head, not answering her. I drove to her house and stopped the car. She huffed and got out, stomping towards her house. I called Mom and told her that Arielle ran away. "Oh no dear, she's here with us. I guess she walked," she sighed, "She also told me what happened with her father. Did you know that Josh was her father? I never heard him mentioning having a daughter at all. Did he tell you?" I sighed. "Yeah, he told me once, but that was last year. He said that he has a daughter that's about my age and said that I would love her like he does. Said that she was really sweet and has a stepfather now, but I don't think that he knew that Albert was an abusive son of a bitch."
Mom gasped and scolded him, "Jake Andrew Emmerling, you watch that mouth of yours son." I sighed and felt bad for upsetting Mom. "Sorry Mom, it's just that I hate Josh, Albert and Arielle's Mom, how could they do that to her?"
"I don't know honey, but we all need to be nice to her and give her some respect." We talked for a few more minutes and hung up. I drove to my house and parked in the garage. I ran inside and into the kitchen. Arielle was sitting at the table with a mug in her hands. She looked like a wounded puppy and I just to hold her in my arms forever. I wanted to kiss her lips and make love to her.
She looked up and met my eyes and looked back down quickly. I sigh and sat across from her. My legs graze her's and she grazed it back. I smile secretly, knowing that she forgives me for not letting her in the car. I set my foot on top of hers and she brushed up against my other leg with her other one. I stared at her and I rose my leg up little by little until my foot is in between her thighs. I watched her cheeks reddened and looked at my mom and then at me. I smiled at her and stretched my foot farther down. She parted her thighs farther and scooted towards the table so that my foot was now up against her pussy. I rubbed it with my foot and grinned. She moaned slightly but quickly covered it with a cough. She stood up and asked Mother if she needed any help. She washed the dishes and kept sneaking glances at me. I got up and helped her dry the dishes. Our bodies were so close together that I had to resist the temptation to grab her and carry her to my room and make love to her and then fuck her like a wild animal.
Mom went to her room to take a nap.We finished and we walked into the living room. She sat down on the couch and I sat next to her, making sure that our bodies are close but not touching. "Do you want to watch a movie?" She smiled and nodded her head and said, "I don't care what it is, anything to get my mind off of some things." I nodded and put on a movie. I grabbed a blanket and laid it over our legs as I sit next to her. She scoots closer to me and lays her head on my shoulder. I put my arm around her and brought her closer and set her in my lap. I heard a surprise gasp but it ignored it and started to kiss her neck. "Jake, stop, you have a girlfriend." I growled inside.
"I don't care about her, she's a slut anyways, I only felt bad for her because her parents dies three years ago. I thought I was in love with her but I'm not, I'm in love with you Arielle. I have been in love with you since I first knocked you to the ground." She gets up abruptly and walked away towards her room. I sighed. I don't know what has gotten into me lately.
I turn the TV off and head to my room. I pass Arielle's room and I could hear her crying. I sighed and went to my room and closed the door behind me and went to sleep.
