Chapter 4 - 4

Jazzy's P.O.V

We pull up to my house. "Maybe you should stay outside. I'll be quick. Please do this for me."

He turns away and we sit in silence for a couple seconds. He signs the turns to me, "I'm giving you 5 minutes and if you take ONE second longer, I will run in there."

"Thank you Jay."

I can tell he isn't too reassured but I offer him a smile before going into my house.

I sigh and walk into the living room. Liam's watching TV. He turns around and sees me.

He comes over and slaps me,"Go make me a sandwich!"

I muster the courage to answer him back,"No! I'm leaving Liam!"

He walks over and pushes me to the ground and I prepare myself for the pain he is about to inflict on me.

He keeps kicking me and punching me until I seize the chance and run into my room. I make sure to lock the door.

He keeps banging on the door while I hurry to pack things into the biggest backpack I could fine.

I grab a bunch of panties, bras, skirts, socks, pants and jackets.

I can get more of my shit another day.

I open my window to avoid my Liam, who is still banging on my door calling me fat, bitch and slut.

I walk into Jays car. He looks relieved but see a bruise forming on my cheek.

His relief turns into anger. He pulls out of the driveway.

"I-Im sorry for all of this."

Tears start to form in my eyes so I look away. I don't really like crying in front of other people. It makes me feel like I'm weak.

Jay lays his hand on my thigh,"Don't apologize.This isn't your fault. "

We pull up into Jay's driveway.

"Well this is it."

I smile as we walk out.

"Are you sure you're mom will be okay with this?I don't wanna intrude."

"She'll understand . Don't worry about it!"

I'm still not too sure but I nod anyways.

We walk into his house and we're greeted by a tall slim lady with black hair and brown eyes who I assume is his mom.

"Jay! Who is this pretty lady? A friend or something more?" Jay looks at the floor and blushes.

I giggle and shake his moms hand, "Hi Ms.Moore I'm Jay's friend, Jazzy."

She laughs and says," I feel old when you call me Ms.Moore. Call me by my first name, Chanel." I nod my head.

"Mom can I talk to you in the kitchen?"

He ushers his mom into the kitchen and I stand by the front door awkwardly.

Jays P.O.V

I usher my mom into the kitchen.

"Can Jazzy stay here? She's not doing very well at home." I ask.

"Well Jay you should've told me this beforehand. I could've tidied up the house."

"She's not doing too well at home. It's not a suitable environment."

My mom smiles,"Yes she can stay here. Go show her to the guest bedroom. I'm gonna start making dinner."

I smile and head back to where Jazzy is at.

"You can stay Jazzy!"

Jazzy's P.O.V

I smile.

"Thank you, Jay for everything."

He hugs me and then we walk upstairs and he shows me to the guest bedroom.

"If you need anything just ask. I'm right next door."

I nod and he leaves the room.

I lay down on the bed.

I pull up my sleeves and see my cuts, old and new.

I just lay there for what seems like hours.

I hear a knock at the door and get up to answer it.

It's Chanel. "Dinner is ready. I hope you like meatloaf."

I smile and nod. We walk downstairs together. I notice two new people I hadn't met yet.

Two little boys.Twins.

They had black hair that was gelled.

And also they had the most beautiful blue eyes.

They look to be about 5 years old. "Those little boys right there are Andy and Vic."

Chanel says after she probably saw the curious look on my face.

They give me a shy wave.

I giggle and say, "Hi I'm Jazzy!"

They seem to take a liking to me which I'm guessing is from our shared liking to superheros.

I sit next to them and we end up having a conversation about The Hulk.

"I see you've met my twin brothers."

I turn around to see Jay looking at me. "They're splendid kids. I've finally found someone to share my superhero knowledge with!"

"Jazzy is nice and she likes The Hulk like us." Andy and Vic say.

Jay rolls his eyes and mutters, "Nerd."

I laugh.

Chanel walks into the dining room and sets down the meatloaf.

I don't want to eat that much to I ask Chanel to cut me a small piece.

"So Jazzy, how did you meet my darling Jay?"

"Oh well we have a few classes at school. Me and my friends invited him to sit with us at lunch." Jay smiles at me and I smile back.

Once dinner is over I try to help Chanel clean up but

she insists that she doesn't need help.

"Go mingle with Jay and the kids. I'll be fine cleaning up."

I excuse myself and go into the living room with Jay,Vic and Andy.

I sit down next to Jay on the couch while Andy and Vic play with action toys on the floor.

"I'm sorry for kinda moving into your house in such short notice." I say looking down at my feet.

"Jazzy it's no problem at all. You and ur friends have been so nice to me and I'm glad to help you in any way." I look up at him, smiling.

I'm so grateful to have met him.
