Annabelle's POV
"Hey it's me Annabelle open up?" I knocked on Jason's door, opening the door, it revealed him, without his shirt, he looked like he has been caged in here forever as I stared at him.
How did we get here, what am I doing here? After everything he did You ask, well I'll explain to you. It happened when I left school a few days ago, I decided to go over to my mom and, it so happens that I have a few cloths there, since I mostly spend the weekends at her place so I didn't have to pack, as for my dads place it'll be a bad idea, cause I know Molly will be all up in my business but, my mom she gets it.
I drove to her place which was really far from school, I remember the first time I was there, I notice it was really far from home, so it explains why it wasn't close to the university either, getting there, I knocked opening the door, she was met by me who still had injuries on me.
"What happened to you, I should call your father?" she announced showing ne in.
"No please, that's why am here." I explained taking a sit on the couch. I crossed my legs on the chair holding myself tight like I was scared to shit, I was still trying to recover.
"Well then you better start talking." she came over and sat next to me, so I explained everything, how I met the twins, Chad, the kiss, Jason finding out, the outburst and basically everything and how I needed a place to think for while which brings me here, I didn't want to tell her about the injury but, it gave me up so I had no choice.
"Wait it's the jason that I know right?" She gave me a stren look, while I try avoiding contact, I knew what was coming next, here it comes.
"Yes." I mouthed.
"do you still love him?"
"I don't know, I never thought about it, I mean we dated for like half the school year, then we were off to college trying long distance and, then this happens, so technically we were together for a few months, so I don't know." I cried out realising we never actually spent a lot of time together.
"But you don't hate him too?" I slowly nodded "Are you even listening to me?" she tapped me.
"Yes continue." I smiled before she started talking again, what was I thinking.
"And you got to college met someone and here we are now?" she declared before I cut her off she's basically just asking me questions now, where is this heading to?
"I don't like Brandon like that, so what's your point?" I clapped back, cause I really don't like him that way.
''Then you have your answer sweetie." She let out I let out a groan, am I suppose to solve this on my own because she's not helping, do I love him?
"You're not helping," I roll my eyes.
"Have you talked to him?" She asked ignoring me, thank god because I really didn't mean to.
"I never got a chance to." I defended looking sad, she slowing parted me on the back before warning.
"Well the jason I met seems responsible and understanding, so talk to him find out what really is going on?, cause if it wasn't him, I would have made sure you never see him again." she warned, guess it's true what they say, mother knows best, I gave her hug realising she just helped me clear everything, and here I was thinking it'll take a month or so.
"So talk to him, find out what you want, and decide what's best for you okay?" she added before going to the kitchen "do you need anything to eat?" She added.
"Ice cream should help." I said in a sad tone, I know she was going to complain am taking sugar late at night, but I needed it.
I checked my phone and sent a text to my dad, I know mom would have told him already, even though she said she won't, but I had to still, he gets really angry when news goes to anyone else before him, so I let him know I'll be staying there for the time being.
I decided to spend two extra days there, I can't leave all this comfort and quietness. And that was how i ended up here and summoning the courage to knock on Jason's door, his dad let me in obviously, then I went up to his room, guess he really did leave college, so I decided to go check up on him and set things straight. Still haven't gone back to school, so I haven't seen Chad, or Brandon and Jessica, I guess that's good.
****
"Can I come in?" I asked keeping my distance, he looked at me for a while before going to sit on his bed leaving the door open for me. I went in before I stood over him with my hands akimbo, I started talking "What happened to you?" I demanded an answer, he was soaking in his room, I remember coming here everything was so organised and clean but, today it wasn't like that it was as if I was in a strangers room.
"You lied to me that's what." He let out a sigh, looking elsewhere, what could be the problem.
"That's not an answer, talk to me, first you drop out and now you're acting like a psycho." I added " it has to be said,"
"I didn't drop out, I took a break, you would have known that if you didn't lie to me." he rolls his eyes at me before focusing on one thing again, what could he be looking at, focusing my eyes I notice he was looking at his closet, what could be in there, he's so lazy he can't even get up to get his things, probably needs a shirt.
"Geez, I'll help," I said before heading to his closet, he stood up to stop me, reaching for my hands but it was too late, I already saw it, everything suddenly became clear to me.
"Jason!, no no no no noooo!'' I face palmed my face "why?" I looked ar his closet one more time revealing his oxy pills half empty already, and a bunch of other drugs, when did he even start using? That explains the viciousness, slowly examining the room I finally noticed it, needles around, empty bottle of former oxy prescriptions, where is he even getting this, am not about to sit and watch this, looking at him he was already seated on the bed so, I walk over sitting next to him I wrapped my hands around him.
"What really happened to you, talk to me? Who better?" I added, he needs to explain to me how all this started, I never expected this from him "do your parents know?"
"No and it's staying that way." he moved away from me, as if I was scaring him he was actually shaking now.
"Am not about to sit here and watch you become a drug addict, or worst become a junkie, no way," I stood up scolding him " I don't care anymore, you might be mad at me, but this has to stop, am detoxing you now." I concluded.
"Just get away from me, I don't want to, you don't know what it's like being me, having a life you didn't plan for, I needed a break." he broke down.
"Still doesn't mean you choose to go and do drugs. Change your life already, you've started by leaving college, at least think of what to do for the time being, and obviously doing oxy, molly or whatever isn't going to help." I decided to go to his closet again pouring out every garbage I could find.
"Am trying okay, law school Just wasn't for me, look at me now, am a mess," he pointed at himself in shame "fix me." he gave me shaky voice, he was already experiencing the shakes, he hasn't used in a while I guess.
"I'll be here don't worry, just lie down, stay calm and hopefully we'll get through this." I gently tap him by the fingers, I used a belt I found in his closet to buckle his hand, this was going to be hard and It won't be easy when he gets persistent. I used another to buckle it by his bed side, I sat there by his side just in case.
*******
"How are you feeling?" I tapped him after not hearing from him almost half an hour, I was sitting by the bed, resting my head before looking back at him who was quiet now, I stood up and found him halfway unconscious, he was not feeling well, I had to do something, he must have passed out during the detox, I tried dragging him off the bed but I couldn't, he was too heavy, so I went out to get his younger sister Emma, luckily she didn't ask any question, we slowly dragged him to the bathroom before pouring a handful of water on him, but nothing was working, so we dipped him in completely before he finally choked up and he was up, wow that was scary.
"Don't ever scare me like that?" I gave him a hug while he was still catching his breath, that's when Emma spoke.
"What happened?" She raised an eyebrow.
"Nothing serious, he just fainted from a scare I gave him." I know she wasn't going to buy that, but I needed to give her something, she smiled before adding.
"Just don't die okay bro." she gave him a look before going off.
"Did I?" he was trying to ask me, but I was just happy he didn't die, at least he's here I didn't want to lose him, still in the bathtub he was soaking wet I didn't care, I jump on him before going in a for a kiss, I didn't realise how much I love him until just now, I thought I lost him he kissed me back too giving me the satisfaction, before he ditched me, of course I landed in the water I was also wet.
"You're crazy." I smiled before coming out to dry myself off, he passed me a towel before closing the door behind me, he was in the bathroom probably cleaning off.
I was in the room cleaning off, I took off the gown I was wearing before using the towel to dry off my hair, I was standing when I felt a hand on waist, it was jason, it felt really cold.
"What are you doing?" I smiled turning at him before he gave me a peck on the cheek.
"Let me." he bite his lip before picking me up in a bridal position, he slowly put me down on the bed, before he slowly gave me a kiss, teasing me he kissed me on the cheek before he slowly went down to my bellybutton, pecking me a little he stood up and went to his closet, what was that, he threw a shirt at me to put on "here, I owe you one." he said before dressing up too.
"Fuck you!" I groaned before, standing up to dress, but what are we doing, I thought he broke up with me, and I don't even know what I want, maybe I should bring it up, or let it be right?
"Can I ask you something?" I summon the courage.
"Sure?" he replied coming to sit next to me, I was getting scared, but he's not that jason, not any more so, I can trust him.
"Are we still good?" I summon that courage, before catching my breath, moving close to me, he gave me a tight hug before whispering in my ear.
"Always princess." before sticking his tongue into my ear.
"Dude stop." I blushed before hugging him tight. Maybe my happing ending is finally coming.
