Fix My Heart

Chapter 24

Jacob's POV
And there she went. She left again. I punched the wall.

I said something that she didn't like...didn't I?

I probably did.

I took my anxiety meds then threw myself onto my bed. I didn't sleep that night. In the morning, someone knocked on the door. I walked to the front door. I opened it and saw Lakelyn.

"Hey. I assume, you've seen her?"

I nodded.

"Do you think you fucked up again?"

I nodded again. My sister walked inside. I shut the front door and locked it.

"She just left. She said she'd see me soon but...I doubt she'll come back. She told me, she broke up with Dax."

"Do you believe her?"

I shrugged.

"I want to. I really do. I'm scared to."

"I know. I can see it all over your face."

We sat down on the couch. I put my head in my hands.

"I-I can't let her go. I-I can't hate her. I-I just...can't."

She started rubbing my back.

"I know. I wish I could help."

"She said things I wanted to hear then...left after we had sex. I definitely screwed up."

"I doubt that."

"You're lucky, you're in a stable relationship. I wish.. I was."

She started hugging me. I sighed.

"Story of my life."

"You honestly think, she won't come back?"

I shrugged.

"She offered to move in."

"Do you feel any better since you saw her?"

I shook my head.

"Nope. I still wanna die. She broke up with Dax because of me. Why would I be happy?"

"Jakey she left him for you probably."

"See? I ruined a relationship."

"J...maybe she's trying to process this."

Veronica's POV
I was starting to pack my things up when, Dax ran up to me. He threw me up against the wall.

"ARE YOU HIGH?!"

"I-I'm sorry! I-I'm not happy with you!"

He punched me. I started hyperventilating. He wrapped his hands around my neck. I started clawing at his face. My eyes started getting heavy. My arms fell. I felt my body go limp. I woke up in a room. I was tied to the wall. I started screaming.

"HELP! HELP! HELP!"

Dax ran up to me. He bashed my head against the wall.

"You're never leaving me."

I started crying. He grabbed a napkin and balled it up. He shoved it into my mouth and taped it to my face. I started gagging. After a while, he took the tape off. I was sick as hell. I started throwing up. I looked down. I saw I had a bump.

I'm pregnant?!

Oh no!

Dax is going to kill it!

I started crying. Dax heard me and ran up to me. He punched me.

"Why do you look fat?! Did that punk get you pregnant?!"

"Please let me keep it! I-I'll do everything you ask me to do! Please!" I said as my voice cracked.

"I-it's the only thing...I have of him! Please!"

He crouched down and grabbed my face.

"One wrong move. One wrong sentence. You're losing it. Got it?"

I nodded as I gulped. He untied me.

"I need clothes packed. Press tour starts soon. Are you going to be a good girl if you stay here?"

I nodded.

"You're adorable when you're scared. You get to eat now. You get water now. You belong to me."
