I just pulled up into the driveway, exhausted from yet another day of work. At least I didn't have to deal with Don's persistent flirting anymore, thanks to Jade. I took the keys out of the ignition and stepped out of the car. I made my way to the door and had the keys to the house in hand. My heart dropped when I saw that the door was wide open and hanging off its hinges. I rushed into the house and looked around frantically for Jade.
"JADE!" I called out, I felt the panic rise within me.
I gasped when I saw Jade on the floor in the living room and rushed over to her. I kneeled down next to Jade and put two fingers to her neck, my heart beating wildly as I silently prayed that she was just unconscious. A strangled sob escaped me when I couldn't find a pulse. My vision blurred before a river of tears flowed down my face, my heart aching from the sight of my dead girlfriend.
I stood up, feeling like I was going to vomit as I noticed that I had been kneeling in a pool of her blood, the dark liquid had stained my jeans. I wiped my tears away and exhaled shakily, reaching for my phone in my back pocket to dial 911. Before I got to that, however, I heard footsteps behind me and whirled around, my hands held up in a self defense position. There was a figure standing just a few feet away from me, dressed in a dark hoodie. A knife was in their hand, the sharp object covered in blood.
Jade's blood.
"She was in the way," the figure said, his voice inhumanly deep, which sent chills down my spine. "You're mine, and only mine."
"No... I was hers..." I whispered, my voice cracking as my eyes landed on Jade's body, I had turned to look at it and the sight broke my heart.
I turned back to face the figure, swallowing so I could manage to speak. I couldn't see the figure's face, the hood making it fairly difficult. but I could see their eyes. They looked like black abysses, the darkness completely filling their eyeballs. There wasn't a speck of white to be seen. Their eyebrows furrowed angrily and I felt fear creeping into my body.
"If I can't have you, then nobody can!" the figure yelled, and lunged at me with the knife.
I sat up straight in bed as I jolted out of my sleep. My heart was beating furiously and loudly, I was surprised that it hadn't disturbed Jade. My body shook from the rush of anxiety that the nightmare had given me, my hands shaky and my breathing erratic. I broke down, fresh tears dripping down my face out of relief that it was just nightmare and out of fear that it felt so realistic. I inhaled slowly and released the breath, attempting to calm myself down when I realized that Jade wasn't in bed with me. I felt fear creep into my body again, but I relaxed when I faintly heard her singing downstairs.
I glanced at the clock and I was shocked when I realized it was past noon. Shit, I'm late for work, I thought. I jumped out of bed and nearly ran to the bathroom when I realized what day it was.
It was Sunday.
I had the day off.
I chuckled softly at my stupidity and went back to the bed, I might as well sleep in more. I made myself comfortable under the covers and tried to sleep, which I found difficult. I mean it was past noon after all. I wasn't used to sleeping this late.
I heard footsteps coming up the stairs and I pretended to be asleep. The footsteps became muffled and I assumed it was from Jade walking along the carpet. The door creaked slightly as she pushed it to enter the bedroom. The bed dipped a bit as Jade sat on it. I felt her move a stray hair off of my face and place a tender kiss on my forehead. The action made me smile and I opened my eyes, meeting her blue ones which were filled with affection. The sight warmed my heart.
"You're up," Jade remarked with surprise, I nodded.
"Yeah, been up a couple minutes," I said as I rubbed my eyes to get rid of the tiredness.
"Are you alright?" Jade asked out of concern, I bit my lip nervously. "Your eyes are all puffy...
"I'm fine, just had a bad dream," I answered, offering her a weak smile.
"If you say so... and you can't do that to me," Jade said out of the blue, I tilted my head in confusion.
"Do what?" I asked as I searched her eyes for answers.
"Bite your lip, it makes me want to do so many things to you..." Jade said, her voice low, making her sound seductive.
"Does it now?" I asked as I sat up to lean closer to her face, biting my lip again to tease her.
I watched Jade's eyes go round with lust.
Before I knew it she had captured my lips in a passionate kiss, forcing me onto my back on the bed. I was caught by surprise, but reciprocated quickly. Her was body flat on top of mine, my arms wrapped around her neck as she heatedly kissed me. The aggressiveness caused me to make small noises from the overwhelming sensation. Her lips left mine and I opened my eyes as Jade straddled me, her blue eyes filled with so much lust.
"Ja-" I started softly, but my breath caught in my throat as Jade leaned down towards my face and brushed my hair to the side, pressing a kiss against my neck.
I tried to resist the urge to moan, but a quiet one slipped out as Jade pressed more kisses against my neck. My hands gripped onto her shirt tightly out of pleasure and the need to find a way to control myself.
"Mmm... I like that sound," Jade whispered in my ear, I blushed.
"Jade... we can't..." I whispered, torn between wanting the kisses and not wanting them, they felt so good.
"Why not?" Jade asked curiously, she had stopped the kisses and sat back up to look at me.
"... Because I don't want them?" I tried, sounding completely unconvincing, Jade kinked an eyebrow.
"So you don't like this?" Jade asked as she pressed her lips against my neck and started lightly sucking, I gasped and quietly moaned as I gripped onto her shirt.
"N-Not in the slightest..." I stuttered, completely flustered at her actions.
"Your reactions say otherwise babe..." Jade countered, I opened my mouth to retort but came up with nothing.
"Shut up," I grumbled as I sat up to cup her face and kiss her.
"That's what I thought," Jade said once the kiss had ended as she forced me back down on the bed and leaned down to press more kisses against my neck.
It never happened though because I heard the doorbell ring. Jade groaned, her breath tickling my neck while I sighed with relief. I really didn't want her to stop though. The kisses gave me a pleasure high.
"Saved by the bell, literally," I mumbled as I gently pushed Jade off me, she pouted before kissing my cheek.
"We'll continue this later," Jade said as she shot me a playful wink, I rolled my eyes in response.
I got out of bed and walked over to our vanity, quickly tying my hair up in a messy ponytail so I wouldn't look like I had just woken up. Even though I had just woken up. I went downstairs, considering my outfit since I had just dressed in just my pajamas still. I wonder who it could be... we aren't expecting any visitors... I thought to myself as I put my hand on the doorknob. As soon as I opened the door, I felt arms wrap around me in a hug and blonde hair attacked my face.
"Belle!" I exclaimed in surprise as I hugged her back.
"Hi Kate! It's been a while!" Belle said as she released me from the hug, a big grin on her face.
"Hi Kate," I heard another voice say, I looked up and saw my mom and brother.
"Hi Mom, Mitch," I said with a smile.
I gave both of them a hug, or tried to. Mitch just dodged my hug and glared at me. I sighed, he never did like hugs, or me for that matter.
"What are you guys doing here?" I asked curiously, Belle flashed our mom a grin.
"Well this one here," my mom said as she ruffled Belle's hair, she whined in protest. "She wanted to come visit you today, I thought it would be a good idea. We haven't seen you in a couple months after all."
"I'm glad you're here," I said, my lips curling to form a big smile.
"Babe, who is it?" I heard Jade call from upstairs, followed by her feet rushing down the stairs.
My mom raised an eyebrow and looked at me questioningly. I hadn't told her about Jade and I just yet.
"Oh! Hi Mrs. Ranger, Belle, Mitch!" Jade said happily as she tried to give everyone a hug, Mitch dodging her hug too.
"Hello Jade, I forgot you two were living together," my mom said smiling at her warmly.
"Mom, how," I asked in shock, we had been living together for a while now, my mom just shrugged in response.
"Ah yes, have to deal with this one all day," Jade said nudging me playfully, I shoved her lightly. "She gets really annoying."
"You're so mean..." I mumbled, everyone burst out in laughter.
"Oh Mom... I, uh," I started saying as I wrapped an arm around Jade's waist. "You know Jade but um... you don't know her quite yet as my... girlfriend."
My mom raised an eyebrow and I quickly grew nervous. She knew that I was bisexual and accepted it, but it didn't mean that she approved of this relationship.
"Well... congrats you two, I couldn't be happier with who you chose Kate," my mom said smiling gently, I sighed in relief, she approved! "But Jade, if you hurt her I will not hesitate to find you and murder you."
"I won't!" Jade said quickly, her eyes widening in fear.
"I'm kidding, but I'm trusting you with my daughter's heart," my mom said, Jade nodded quickly. "I don't want to have to see her hurt."
I looked at Belle and I saw something in her eyes as she looked at Jade and I. I couldn't quite read the look well. It looked like jealously, or want. I need to talk to her...
"Gay," I heard my brother mumble, I raised an eyebrow at him.
"You want to say something to me Mitch?" I asked crossly, he shook his head. "And yes, I am gay for Jade Alder."
Jade smiled softly at me and I smiled back. My mom cleared her throat.
"Can we come inside now?" my mom asked, I nodded as I stepped to the side, dropping my arm from Jade's waist.
Everyone went in but Belle held back a bit.
"Nice catch Kate, you have good taste," Belle said with a wink, I laughed at her remark.
"Hey, can I talk to you about something?" I asked Belle, she nodded.
"You looked at Jade and I funny... something up?" I asked curiously, Belle bit her lip nervously.
"Uh... I just... i-it's nothing..." Belle stuttered, I gave her a look.
"Belle," I said warningly, Belle sighed as she glanced at the ground and returned her gaze to me.
"You remember Paige right?" Belle asked, holding her arm with her hand.
"Yeah, your hot best friend, what about her?" I teased, Belle slapped my shoulder playfully.
"I think I have a crush on her..." Belle said softly.
My jaw dropped. My baby sister had a crush on a girl, her best friend for that matter. Sounds familiar.
"Hold up," I said, holding my hand up in a stop motion. "You're bi? Gay? Or lesbean? Whatever you want to call it?" I asked hurriedly, Belle giggled at the name I had for lesbian.
"I-I think I'm bi..." Belle whispered after she had settled down, her eyes looked into mine and all I could see was fear.
"Belle, why the hell are you looking at me with fear?" I laughed as I pulled her into a hug. "I'm bi too for goodness sake."
"It's not you... more like about how I'm going to tell Mom..." I heard Belle say, I backed out of the hug and looked my little sister dead in the eye. "I don't know how she'll take both of her daughters being bi..."
"Belle, she'll be accepting," I said reassuringly, Belle nodded as I continued to talk. "She was accepting of me, she'll be accepting of you. Relax."
"Right, thanks Kate... let's go inside shall we?" Belle said offering me a smile, I nodded.
I spent the next few hours with my family and Jade, catching up on everything that had happened. Belle complained about her struggles with high school, my mom asked me questions about how life was going, and Mitch, well, he was being Mitch. Antisocial as always and playing some game on my laptop. It was really lovely being able to spend time with my family. Excluding my dad of course. Who knew what he was off doing. They all left around 8, which left Jade and I alone again.
"It was nice seeing your family again," Jade said as she slipped her shirt off and dug through the dresser for something to sleep in.
I let my eyes wander her body shamelessly, you really couldn't blame me though. Jade was the definition of perfection. She was slim and had curves in all the right places. Jade slipped on a tank top and turned around, smirking as she realized that I had been checking her out.
"Like what you saw?" she teased.
"Maybe..." I said with a smile.
Jade joined me on the bed and immediately cuddled up against me.
"Now... about continuing what we started earlier..." Jade said as she pressed a kiss against my neck.
"Jade..." I said warningly.
"What... I'm sorry I'm extremely attracted to you and I really want you," Jade stated, giving me a smile, I laughed as I pulled her in for a kiss.
"Another time, not tonight," I said softly, Jade grumbled in displeasure.
"Fine... g'night Kit Kat," Jade mumbled.
"Night Jadey..." I said as I placed a kiss against her forehead.
I stared at the ceiling for what seemed like a small eternity before I heard Jade's soft snoring. I turned to look at her and smiled, she looked so peaceful.
My phone buzzed and I slowly moved to grab it, not wanting to wake Jade up. I saw that I had a message and my stomach knotted when I saw it was from my stalker.
Stalker: You're mine. No one else's. It's a cruel game you're playing. Getting with a GIRL to make me jealous. We'll see how long you'll play her for before you come crawling to me.
I felt anger rise within me at that message. How dare he think that I was using Jade to make him jealous. What a psychopath. I looked at Jade's sleeping figure again and smiled. She's so gorgeous... I'm ridiculously lucky to have her. I placed another gentle kiss against her forehead before I drifted off into sleep.
