~Alice's P.O.V.~
I hate myself that I lied to him, but I had to. Any other way, will get Jake mad at me, and I didn't want that. I convinced myself not to go anywhere with Ace. I knew if I told Jake told the truth he would hurt Ace, Terribly. I heard a knock on my door. I ran downstairs, and open the door wide open and I saw Ace waiting there.
"Hi there", he smiled, and I couldn't do anything but smile back
"Hi", I reply
"Are you ready to go?", he asked
"Um, I actually decided to change my mind", I say while looking down, shamefully
"Why?", he asked
I didn't want to lie. I wanted to stop lying. Ever since I met Jake I've started to lie a lot.
"Jake told me not to see you", I say with shyness, he held my hand and leaned close to me
"He doesn't have to know about us", he said with a grin
I immediately pull my hand out of his, and felt disgusted. My feelings for Ace were immediately shattered.
"What! No!", I shout in shock
"You know you like me Alice", he said with a grin
He acts exactly like Jake. Are they the same person, but just different bodies?
"Not like that", I say trying to calm myself down
"Well, if you didn't like me, you wouldn't have given me your number", he said. He has a point.
"I was just mad at him, at the time", I explain, trying to convince myself
"Well, were just going to hang out, nothing else", he explain
"That's what I told Jake, but he freaked out", I say
"You asked Jake to hang out with me?", he said while smiling
"N-no Ace", I say getting frustrated
"Well, I promise I won't do anything", he said while chuckling
I looked up to meet his gaze.
"Ace, I already made my decision", I explain
"C'mon Alice", he said leaning close to me
"No, just accept my decision", I say, getting more frustrated at his attitude, and he clearly noticed
"You need to have fun Alice", he said with a smile
"Ace stop", I say
Of course there is always that small part of me that wants to go with him.
"Why are you mad?", he said with a grin. Noticing my facial expression
"I'm not mad", I exclaim
"Your so damn adorable, I know see why Jake wanted you badly", he insisted
I was now outraged, and felt disgusting.
"Ace leave now", I say getting angrier I tried pushing him away but felt a sharp pain in my wrist, and back away
"What happened?", he asked looking concern
"N-nothing, just leave", I beg grasping on to my wrist
He looked down at my wrist, and held them up.
"Ace, please leave", I say while trying to pull back my wrist, but he held on to them
"Who did this to you?", he said looking up to my face. His face was filled with concern
"Leave Ace", I beg almost in to tears
"Alice your hurt, who did this?", he repeated
"Didn't you hear her? She said leave", I look to the side and Jake was there
And he did not look happy.
"Well, look who we have here", Ace replied, while grinning
He lets go of my wrist, and turns around to face Jake.
"Why the hell are you here?", Jake asked giving Ace a glare
"Well, Alice invited me over", he said
Jake didn't bother to look at me. I felt so guilty, not even I could look at myself either.
"Stay away from her", he said while clenching his fist
"Why? She told me ya'll weren't dating, that means I can make her mine", he said with a grin, Jake then pushed Ace up against the wall
"Look you fucking bastard, stay away from her or else you will fucking pay", he growled
Ace then pushed Jake off him. Next thing I knew Jake was swinging punches at Ace.
"Jake stop!", I beg I try to get in between them to separate them, but Jake pushes me out of the way.
I land on the ground, and a sharp pain struck my wrist, since I landed on them. I have to get up. Why is Jake doing this? He could have simply done something else. Everything he does somehow involved violence in it. No matter who he's dealing with. Including me. Why am I even with Jake? He get's jealous easily. He treats me like crap. One second he makes me smile. the next second I have bruises. He made me lose my bestfriend, he's starting to isolate me. I was starting to regret the Ace's offer. Why couldn't I just simply go with him? And forget about Jake.
I get up immediately with anger rushing in my veins. I walk over to Jake and push him with all my might away from Ace, and try my best to ignore the burning feeling in my wrist. Jake gives me a glare, but I simply ignored it, and slap him across the face. He looked at me with shock. It took me a couple of seconds to realize what I've done. My facial expression changed from being angry to being guilty. I was just so mad at Jake. I didn't realize what I was doing. Now I knew how it felt when Jake did that to me. I looked up to meet his gaze, and he gave me a look that i'll never forget.
"J-Jake I'm s-sorry", I whisper
"Looks like your girlfriend is on my side", Ace chuckled
Right now I wanted Ace to shut the hell up, and leave. He's the main reason everything happened. Jake simply pushed me away. Like if I were nothing. I tried not to cry.
"Fucking bitch", I heard him mumble while walking away
What did I do? I rub my eyes to try to wipe the tears away. All those things that Jake told me were now broken and shattered all across the floor. I began to tear up. I looked up once again to see if Jake was still there. But he was gone.
"At least were alone now", I heard Ace say
"Can you fucking shut the hell up! Your the reason why Jake fucking got mad! Couldn't you just leave when I told you!", I shout in anger
"Calm the fuck down, first of all I didn't know y'all were dating, and second of all it's not my fault he's a fucking hot head", he said while wiping the blood from his lip
"Get the fuck out, before I call the cops", I say
"Fine", he agreed
"Once you change your mind-", I cut him off
"Screw off Ace", I shout
He gets in his car, and drives away.
Why is this happening? Why am I even crying over someone I have mixed feelings about? Jake makes me happy and sad. Why did I have to do that? I hate myself for doing everything. I hate myself for doing that stupid thing. I want to go back in time, and be wrapped around Jake's arm. Then again Jake can hurt me . But I love the way how he made me feel. He made me feel so special, and wanted. I lean against the garage door, and slide down. I place my head in my knees, and sob. It began to get really cold again. I didn't care.
I deserve it.
