Chapter 29
Jake's Pov
I was sitting in the chair in the far corner, I was on my phone. Someone knocked on the door and my head shot that way. I saw Aaron and he walked in.
"What's up?" He asked.
"Watching a girl, you?" I asked.
"And to see if you two were ok," he said and he looked at her. "What'd you to to her?"
"Alcohol, I had to clean those gashes and cuts someway," I said and the door opened again. Macy, Leanna, Malik, Justice, and Marcus. Ethan was carrying Simone bridal style. "Have you cleaned her up yet?"
"No, I'm struggling to keep her awake." he said.
"I got her, put her down." I said.
"Where we going?" Simone asked.
"You're gonna get clean." I said.
"Uh Jake." Justice said.
"Simone's like my sister and she's not getting naked." I said.
"Jake, come on don't." Aaron said and I looked at him.
"She'll live," I said and I looked at Simone. "Simone, wake up."
"Jake," she whined, I picked her up and carried her to the bathroom. I set her down. "Strip to your undergarments and take a shower." she nodded and she done what I said, I walked out and I just grabbed some of my clothes. I walked back and closed the door, she got out.
"Simone, you're about to hate me too." I said.
"Why would I hate you?" She asked and she saw what I had. "Jake no."
"Simone, you have too." I said.
"It's gonna hurt." she said.
"Me slapping you is gonna hurt too," I spat. "Now stop being a damn baby," she walked to me. "Bite this," I handed her the rag and she bite into it. I started cleaning the places and she screamed into the rag and I knew she was crying too. "Ok, I'm done," I helped dry off. "Here's some clothes." I put the stuff up as she got dressed, I looked at her. We walked out and we saw Ethan, Justice, and Brice.
"Why are you crying?" Brice asked
"Jake put alcohol on me," she said. "But I'm fine." She walked into the room and heard someone crying and I heard thunder and saw lightning flash through the big hallway window.
"Shit," I mumbled and I went into the room, Naomi was shaking and crying. The girls were trying to calm here down but it want working. "Move," they backed up and I got on top of her. I kissed her cheek. "Sh babydoll, it's just a storm," I kissed under her jaw and she grabbed the sides of my shirt and stopped shaking. "Sh." I looked at her and she looked at me.
"I love you Jake." she said.
"I love you too, Naomi." I said and pecked her lips. She closed her eyes and drifted to sleep again. I got off her and I looked at the girls, they were looking at something else. I looked at the boys, Ethan looked at Brice.
"She said she was over it." he said.
"You should've known she was lying," Brice said. "Chase still does it some times, Rachael does too. I bet you five bucks Rico's holding her."
"You guys know?" I asked and they looked at me.
"She told you?" Brice asked.
"Last time we had a thunderstorm she did." I said.
"Why were you there?" Ethan asked.
"I wasn't gonna let her cry and shake to death all night," I said. "I was mad but I wouldn't do that to her."
"So, McKenna is your real name?" Malik asked.
"Yeah." Macy said low.
"Do you not like it?" Ethan asked.
"I mean, it's pretty but I just didn't feel it." she said.
"That's Casey's first name." Ethan said. "McKenna Cassidy Hensley."
"Really?" Macy asked. "Where'd Casey come from."
"Dre," he said. "He thought McKenna wasn't a tomboy name, neither did Cassidy, so he started calling her Casey."
"Who named her?" Simone asked and he bit his lip.
"Skye and I did," he said. "Chase wasn't around so I promised her I'd be there for her. So when we named her, I chose the name McKenna."
"Oh Ethan, I didn't mean anything by it." she said.
"It's fine." he said and smiled, she looked down. Thunder rolled and Naomi flinched and started shaking. I got up next to her and kissed her cheek.
"Sh, it's just the storm." I said softly and she stopped and fell asleep. I rubbed her back and looked back at them.
"How do you calm her down so easily, I use to struggle so bad." Ethan said.
"I kiss her either on her cheek, neck, jaw, or lips and just tell her it's just a storm," I said. "Sometimes she'll say it to herself."
"Why's she so scared?" Macy said. "She seems like she's terrified." I looked at her.
"You'll have to ask her." I said.
"Well, can someone tell me who does this to us?" Simone asked. "Because one slapped my butt and it hurt."
"We don't know." Malik said.
"Did you notice anything about them?" Marcus asked.
"I made one of their noses bleed." she said.
"Why?" Justice asked.
"Excuse me, I just got my hair done and he got me in the rain." she said.
"Do you think it was the ones who shot Dre?" Leanna asked. "They might be after ES." My phone rang and I got up and walked out.
~Naomi's Pov~
"No, they wouldn't of touched Simone," Brice said, he looked at Simone and then me. He walked to her and he bent to her. "Lay down." she looked at me.
"Just do it." I said and she laid back, he got next to her.
"Don't move." he said and she nodded, he kissed her and he touched her back. He touched where bruises and the cuts were, she tried pushing him off. She kicked her legs and Leanna held them down, he pulled back. "Better?" She nodded, he looked at me. Brice came beside me.
"Brice don't." I said.
"I have too." He said and he kissed me, he was touching my back and the cuts. I punched his side and I kicked my legs.
"Hold her legs Macy." Ethan said and he did. Brice stopped and pulled back. I looked at him. He got up and Macy let go of my legs and we all stood up. Jake walked back in and he pecked my lips, his lips lingered there. He pulled back and I smirked.
"Brice's lips must've still left a shock." he said and my smirk dropped.
"Jake." I said.
"I'm not mad Mimi." he said.
"You promise?" I asked.
"I promise," he said. "Well, I'm little mad."
"Macy, come here," Aaron said and Macy shook her head. "McKenna." he said it more stern and she got up and walked to him. He grabbed her, he looked mad.
"Aaron, please don't hit me please." She said and he stood up and looked down at her.
"How many years have we been together?" he asked with anger.
"3, 4 on January 26." she said.
"Out of these 3 years, have I ever laid a hand on you?" He asked.
"No." she said.
"The first argument we got in, what'd I tell you?" He asked.
"Aaron." she said.
"Macy." he said, he cupped her face in his hands.
"You told me you would never hurt me like he did, you promised to never hit me." she said low.
"I intend on never breaking that promise McKenna," he said and pecked her lips softly. "I love you."
"I love you too." she said, Aaron looked at Jake.
"That's how you do it." he said.
"Yeah, yeah, I get it," Jake said. "Ok yes, I've hit Naomi before but I'm not proud of it, I haven't hit her anymore," Aaron looked back at Macy and hugged her, he pecked her neck. Jake looked at me. "Forever and always?" I smiled.
"Always and forever." I said and he pecked my lips. Ethan walked to Simone.
"You're scared of me, aren't you?" He asked and she nodded. "I hit you twice Simone, I still regret it. I'm not use to being around girls I can't fight, but I'm use to it now." she looked at him and smiled.
"I know." she said.
"This doesn't mean I'm taking you back Simone." He said and her smile dropped.
"Ethan." She said and tears filled her eyes, she walked out and I got mad. I looked at Ethan and got in his face and pushed him.
"That was fucked up Ethan." I hissed.
"Skye." he said.
"Save it," I hissed and I walked out. I looked for Simone and I found her. "Simone?" She looked at me, she had tears falling.
"He doesn't care anymore." she said.
"Simone," I said and I wiped her tears. "Come with me." we got up.
"Where?" She asked.
"You'll see," I said and texted the girls. "Let's go."
