Sarcastic Love Ch. 11

Chapter 11: First kiss

About three weeks have passed since Jacey and I have confessed to each other how we felt. I've been a whole lot happier and not as many bad things have happened to me. I've seen Olette a lot; she's finally going to move out of the house and into a dorm at her college. I'm very proud of her for finally going against the grain like I did.

Any way, in Drama class we are preparing for our premier of Romeo and Juliet. Jacey and I are both very excited about it. We decided to hold off on our first kiss until the final showing of the play.

Thayne is very impressed with our acting and how we can put so much compassion into this play. He told me so the other day he also told me he missed me, and wished I'd stop by more. I don't know what to do about him any more. He's been a nervous wreck since he found out I'm in a relationship with Jacey. He has a funny feeling about him but, I think he's just jealous. He wanted me to come over tonight but, Jacey's coming over and we've planned this night longer ... so it gives Jacey the right....right?

So now I'm sitting on my bed thinking over the past few months and how crazy a journey I've been lead on. From being hated to being loved...and almost being killed by a crazy blood relative.

A sigh escapes from my lips slowly as I regulate it to. My thoughts just continue to run ragged as my mind keeps going from one thing to the next with no intention of touching ground for too long. Was it because I was nervous? Why should I be nervous...? I mean we are a couple now so there isn't anything to be scared of right? It seems that after every single noise I heard, weather it be a creak from my springs of my mattress or the heater kicking on periodically, I seemed to just...jump out of my skin.

Knock, Knock, Knock...

I smiled to myself before I stood to slowly walk to the door and answer it. I open the door and pause, Jacey is on the floor and crying. I quickly drop to my knees and pick him up. I laid him on the couch then ran back to the door and closed it and secured it with the lock. Quickly, I ran back to him and laid him comfortably on his back, making sure he could breathe.

Gasp! I watch him sit up holding his chest. His eyes were dilated and he squeezed his jacket so tight, his knuckles were white. I could see him trembling, his hair was wet, he must be cold.

Slowly I move to go get a towel and he snaps over to me and throws himself on me, holding me tightly, digging his nails into my back. He kept mumbling something over and over again. I couldn't understand what could have happened in the past two days to leave him in this state? " What happened Jacey...what is wrong with you...who did this to you?" I hugged him tightly. My back was starting to ache from his nails into my back and my legs started to hurt from sitting on them weirdly, one of them started to fall asleep but I didn't really pay any attention to this. My well being didn't matter. "Jacey...Jacey, hon, please....tell me!" Tears formed in my eyes and a bubble in my throat, he wasn't listening to me... he couldn't hear me!

His grip grew tighter as he slowly nuzzled his face as far as he could into the nape of my neck before he slowly began to fall back onto the couch. I wouldn't let him, so I fell with him and felt his hands slide off my back. It was like he just died. I took a shallow breath and pressed my ear to his chest in hopes of a heart beat.

Tears spilled from my eyes as I sobbed and nuzzled into his chest. Thump...thum-thump... "Thank god....Thank you.... Thank..." I slowly ran out of any breath to speak. I nuzzled slowly into his chest before I found myself very tired and numb. Gradually, I lifted myself from him and wiped my runny nose on my sleeve. I dragged myself up and to the bathroom to get a towel. When I got back I sat the sleeping beauty up a bit so I could dry his hair off. I then stripped him of his jacket and took his shoes off. I went to my room and grabbed a spare blanket from under the bed and laid it gently on top of him, tucking in the sides.

I finally calm down and wipe some of his wonderful hair out of his eyes and sat comfortably on the floor and rested his head on the very edge of the couch. He reached his hand out to hold Jacey's and fell into a comfortable trance. His eyes were closed, his mind was rational but he didn't appear to be awake.
