Chapter 20 - Chapter 20

Amy's POV

After that incident . I went to my grandma's home . I have been here for way too long .

I know I have to return to school . But I already took a week's leave . And today is my last holiday .

So I'm going back home in the evening . Everything happened till now. Was fucking crazy .

But whatever now I'm over it . I can start a new journey right. It's never too late .

I packed my bag neatly. For the first time in life .

"Aww darling you are leaving today I'm so gonna miss you ." My grandma said, pulling me into a tight hug .

"I'll miss you too grandma ." I said . She hugged even tighter . I cuffed " grandma.. you...are choking..me ." I said .

She realized me ." Let me see your beautiful face for once ." She said grabbing my face . Tilting it around .

Yeah that's how grandmas are , right ? They are fun .

"I'll visit you soon again . " I said assuring her . As we went out to eat our lunch .

My uber came pretty fast . I said my goodbyes . With kisses and all stuff .

I didn't even switch my phone on for the whole week . I decided to just do it before going to school tomorrow.

At least now I can have some peace for the time left .

It was almost 9 when I reached home . So I skipped the dinner . As I was so tired . Went straight to my room .

Collapsing in the bed and soon sleep surrounded me .

*****

Next day....

I woke up at time . Taking a quick shower . Wearing my clothes . Grabbing my bag . I left the house .

I reached school in no time . I sighed heavily . Standing in front of the building .

I can do it !!

I told myself . And entered . Like the last time , No one threw darts at me .

Well anyone barely noticed me . I'm thankful it's all back to normal.

I made my way to my locker . Grabbed my stuff and entered my class .

I waved at Ciara, Asher and Will . Who were sitting together in a group .

"What's up guys ? How's it going?" I asked just casually.

"Where the hell were you ?" Ciara shouted, crossing her arms to her chest .

"Ah just enjoying some holidays ." I replied .

Soon the bell ranged . We just settled down . Not getting enough time to catch up .

Miss.Katherine entered the class with books in her hand . Now I'm confused . Isn't this where Jason should enter.

"Ciara " I whispered . She leaned back .

"Why is she coming to teach ?" She quickly turned around . Giving me what the fuck look?

"What?" I said .

"You don't know?" She asked .

"What do I have to know?" I asked in utter confusion ..

"You didn't see our school web ?" She said . I shaked my head in denial.

"God I thought you knew ." She said .

Grabbing my wrist . She started walking out of the class.

"Ladies problem Miss.katherine. " she shouted before going out . I followed her .

"Are you for real Amelia ?" She shouted .

"What?" I said frustrated.

"Okay now listen carefully and just listen . " she said ,I nodded .

"That day after you left the school . The education board held a disciplinary meeting. Uh and in that meeting . They called you and Jason. You weren't in school . They decided to call at your home . But before they could come to you . Jason took all the blame ." She said .

"What blame ? The fuck did we do wrong?" I shouted in frustration.

"Amy, listen there's more to this . You weren't here for more than a week . After that Jason had to resign . He did . And that was the last time we saw him . And we thought maybe you two were doing something together . But now you said you weren't. '' she stopped .

"Wait first of all . He broke up with me in front of everyone . Then why on earth did he jump into fire for me ?" I asked.

"Because he loves you ." A female voice from behind caught our attention.

Miss.katherine was standing with a genuine smile on her face.

"Woa..what?" I stuttered watching her .

Why is she helping me now ? Isn't she the one who wanted us to break up so badly ?

Then why on earth why ?

I just left for a week and these many things happened.

"That idiot ! I told him thousand times to not be involved with you . But anyway he didn't listen to me . Now he is paying for it . " she said, acting dramatically.

Okay well she is ..

"What are you talking about Miss." Ciara spoke . She cut her off.

"I'm talking the truth . He loved her so much . He didn't want anyone to hurt her . So he let his career go to waste ." She sighed .

"Well she is right " one more voice of a Male . Behind Miss.katherine.

Will came close . He stopped tugging his hands into his pocket .

"Well that day . I told him to say those things . So that kids won't bother you again . He didn't want to but then I told him. If he didn't, you would suffer . And he said those things to keep you safe and happy ." He said, shrugging more . Looking down . Ashamed I think .

My mouth hangs open . Listening to them . How could they just do it without thinking of consequences.

"How ...why ..why would you do that ?" I sobbed . I didn't know until now I was crying . Silently .

"We are really sorry Amy. " Will said, coming closer .

"Don't.. just don't come any closer . I thought we were friends .you .. you guys .. you were all in this together . " I cried out loud .

"Amy , are you okay?" Ciara asked .

"Do I look like that?" I said, wiping my tears away .

I slumped on the floor . Clutching my hair hard . Tears were nowhere near to stop .

"What the hell should I do now ? I lost him just like that ." I sobbed between my hands .

I felt someone's hand on my back . Rubbing it slowly and gently .

"Do you remember when you said you love him and you don't care about people's opinions . " Miss.katherine said, patting me gently .

I peeped at her and nodded .

"He's a mess without you . Just go to him . I bet he is waiting for you ." She said .

My eyes widened . "What ? Where is he ?"

She smiled softly and warmly . Picking me up . Wiping my face .

"You won't want him to see you look like that , right ?" She said .

"But where is he ?" I asked again .

"Where could he go ? He is at his home ." She said helping me clean my clothes . Which were covered in little dust .

A hope aroused in my eyes . I could meet him . He didn't leave me .

Dumb me !! I thought it was all over .

"Go, " she said, pushing me slightly .

"But.."

"I'll take care here . Just go ." She said before I could ask anything .

I nodded and runned towards the road . Hailing a taxi . I opened my phone . His texts popped up . He was apologising. Hell for what even .

I should be the one to say sorry .

The moments of the last time popped in my head as I reached his address. I smiled at my thoughts .

I reached up in the lift . When I was about to knock the door . I saw it was already open .

Did he know I was coming ?

I decided to just enter in . It was all a mess unlike the last time . Things and stuff was scattered everywhere.

A broken vase was just as it is . It felt like I'm entering a haunted house or something.

No lights , no window opened . Nothing . At all .

I turn on my phone's flashlight. Entering in .

"Jason?" I whispered . I gulped hard moving around more .

I was literally scared at the shape of the house . Damn what if someone broke into his house.

Where the hell is Jason?

As I was walking I bumped into something hard . Making a loud noise .

"Whatever you want , take it . I don't have anything left , anyways ." A voice from the other side of the bed came.

I moved further . I knew it was Jason. But his voice was so heavy and husky .

"Oh my!! Jesus Jason what the hell?" I jumped seeing him . He was pretty much drunk .

His red bloodshot eyes met mine . He came close to take a bigger look .

Suddenly his eyes went wide . His breath became quicker.

"Amy .. oh God.. am I seeing things again . Stop it . God! my head . It hurts ." He whispered, calming down .

Does he think I'm a hallucination? God he hallucinated about me .

I sat beside him . Holding back tears in my eyes .

I embraced him into a warm hug. Keeping his head to rest on my shoulder .

"I'm sorry . I'm so sorry ." I whispered as hot warm tears . Which I was holding back.

Started following like Niagara fall .

"God Amy. This is really you . I'm not seeing things . It's really you ." He sobbed hugging me back tightly. As if I would run away .

"I'm sorry . I really am . I shouldn't have left you alone ." I whispered . Cupping his face . Caressing his cheeks .

"Shh" he said . Before leaning into kissing me .

This felt like forever . As if I hadn't kissed him for years . Our tears mixed up .

We pulled apart . Panting . Smiling at each other's sight .

"I love you ." He whispered .

"I love you even more ." I whispered back . Before leaning into a kiss again .

We are still together . No matter how many people tried to keep us apart . But our love is enough to keep us close .

I hope I can keep this thing forever .
