Housemates

Chapter 29

  //Marisa//

       

I stirred awake in a warm bed,my arms were wrapped around someone's very warm body. The last thing I remember was being really cold so I must be dreaming. I also seem to think that the guy my arms are around is Jude. I took my chances and popped the guy in the back of the head making The guy groan.

"What the hell?" He said. I immediately scooted from the bed and got out.

"A hah so it is you Jude. Tell me I'm dreaming or you're going to get a big can of'whoop-ass' opened on you." I yelled. Jude turned around and rolled his eyes.

"Don't be so dramatic Marisa." He said lazily.
"Wha-..how..hol" I sputtered. "What do you mean don't be so dramatic. I'm going to be dramatic whether you fucking like it or not Jude. One you left me at some lady's house,who by the way was nice."

"Yes and that was for your own safety." He replied as if he didn't care.

"Two you and your brothers tried to kill me. Yes I'm reminding you because I've been reminded." I yelled again. He sighed."Do you even care?" Jude propped himself up on an elbow.

"Yes I care and if you hadn't left the place I set you up at . You wouldn't have nearly died from the cold. Maybe you should just stay where you're put sometimes sweetheart or you wouldn't be in such fucking messes sometimes." He snapped. I was taken aback, as his voice yelled at me.

"Fine."I snapped back,regaining my composure.I looked around the room."Where are we?"

"A hotel."

"And where exactly are we?" I asked him.

"A few towns over from our town." He said. I rolled my eyes.

"Great." I mumbled.I looked down finally at what I was wearing. It was a big dress shirt that barely covered my thighs. I peeled it away from my skin and looked at Jude." Is this yours?"

Jude smirked."Yeah it looks gorgeous on you although it could have been shorter."

"You're such a pig Jude." I stomped over to the bed and stood in front of him.
"What?" He asked. I grabbed a pillow and started hitting him with it. He laughed,he freaking laughed.

"The fluffiness feels great." He said. I threw the pillow on the bed and in a quick second Jude had me in his arms.

"Let me go." I said. He sighed.

"No,not if you are going to be mad Marisa. You don't know what happened at all because you passed out. Now I did these things to keep you safe from me and others as well. You need to calm down, okay?" He said. I settled in his warm embrace, I forgot to mention he was shirtless of course.

"Alright,What's happened?" I said calming down.
"Good. I'l tell you then." Jude said and he proceeded to tell me the events thus far.

  I sat on the bed stunned. I missed out on so much in a day or two. I stared ahead at the brown walls of the hotel room. I couldn't believe any of t his.

"Repeat that for me one more time. Lucy and Saber are what? I may be a what? and all of your stuff in the mansion is ...?" I choked out the words. Tears threatening to come forth again. Jude sighed, this was like the fifth time Jude explained this to me and also comforted me. I was sitting on the edge of the bed and Jude was  laying down.

       "Well Lucy and Saber are gone okay. You may be a fucking fairy which isn't the best thing in the world. Also all the stuff in my mansion is gone even Joe your guitar and the other one I bought as well as all of your clothes my clothes to add onto that Sebastian is dead and Penny is still out there."
        Just the mention of all three of them being dead made the waterworks start. Jude held me in his arms in seconds.

"Please don't cry Marisa. You know I cant handle waterworks." he said and for some reason that made me cry even harder. "Please stop I know it's hard but just don't cry again." Jude pleaded. I looked up at him.

"Joe's gone ,Lucy,Saber and Sebastian are gone and Penny's still freaking missing." I whined to him. He rocked me back and forth.

"I know and we'll find her I promise, my whole family is looking for her." Jude said. I believed him.

"Okay." I wiped the tears off my face with Jude's shirt sleeve. He sat me on the bed and I missed the warmth of his arms. We stared at each other for a moment too long and then the ringing of a cell phone went off.

"I'll get that." Jude said breaking our eye contact. He slipped out of the bed and got his phone out his jacket pocket.

"Hello" he said. I listened to his side of the conversation.

"She's alive" Jude said eyes going wide. "But how?"

"Who's alive?" I whispered. He looked over at me and put a finger to his lips telling me to be quiet. I listened silently.

"I'll be there as soon as possible dad. This is phenomenal." Jude said his expression slowly turning to happiness."Alright bye dad."

He got off the phone and turned to me. "We need to go now." He said in a commanding tone.

"What's  going on Jude?" I asked as I got off the bed.

"Get dressed we need to go to my brother's house. I'll tell you the details on our way there." He answered. I nodded my head and found the pants I was wearing before and slipped them on. I took off Jude's shirt and luckily my other shirt was under there.

"Here's your shirt?" I tossed it while he was turned around and he caught it anyways.
"Thanks." He slipped it on fluidly and then grabbed his things in one go nearly giving me a headache. "All right now let's go."

He grabbed my hand and I felt something open deep inside of me but I put it aside. We left out the hotel room and proceeded to the important issue.
