Forbidden Love/ Fack/ Jyatt (Book 1) FINISHED

40- Jails & Love

FINN's P.O.V.
Still locked in the cell, I use my call, but I don't call my parents, or Nick.
I dial Asher's number, and call him
- Hello?- he asks
- Asher? I'm Finn
- You're an asshole. Do you know what you did to him?
- Is Jack there?- I avoid his question
- He's sleeping
- Sleeping? It's 6pm.
- He's at the hospital, Finn. He self harmed. His left wrist is full of vertical cuts.
*Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.*
- Listen, I didn't say all those things. Okay? It's all a misunderstanding.
- You call that a misunderstanding? He almost died, Finn.
- It's not my fault. Okay?
- Of course it is.
- I love him, Asher. I do.
- Then come see him
- I can't! I'm in detention.
- Detention? Like... school detention?
- I wish...
There's a few seconds of silence, until I speak again
- Real detention. I got into a fight with Jaeden, in the middle of the airport...
- Why?- he interrupts
- Cause I found out about all the things he said to Jack and now I'm trapped here until my parents come pick me up.
- Are you nuts? Why didn't you call them?
- Because... I needed to know if Jack was okay.
- Oh...
- So? How is him?
- Not very well. He's lost a lot a blood. He's still really weak, but the doctors are trying to fix it.
- Please call his stepmother?
- I don't have her number
- Get it. Please
- Okay...
- Thanks, A. And please let Jack know that I still love him. I'll go see him as soon as I can
- Sure. I will
The cop ends my call, and I sit down again. I'm about to cry.
- How is Jack?- Noah asks
- What do you care?
- I don't wanna fight again, Finn.- he hugs me- I don't think you should be with Jack, but if you think he's the right choice, there's only two things I can do. One, fight you. Or two, accept it. In the first option, we stop talking and loose our friendship again, and in the second one, we're okay. Trust me, I choose the second one.
I look at him, and try not to smile.
- That's so cheesy
- Hm, I'm Noah Schnapp. The cheesiest person in this earth.
I laugh.
- He's at the hospital.
When I say that, they all look at me. Even Jaeden
- He self harmed and lost too much blood.
- Finn... I'm so sorry- Jaeden whispers
I shake my head and look away
- No you're not.
- Hey. He made a mistake. He said he's sorry- Wyatt says at me
- Can you please stop defending him?
- No. Can you please stop attacking him?
- NO!- I scream
I'm so mad at them
They're acting like assholes
- I guess they chose the first option then...
- SHUT UP, NOAH!- we all scream
- Ugh, you're the worst cellmates ever. I wish Sadie was here
- I wish Jack was here. Oh, wait! He would, if Jeaden wouldn't have told them I didn't love him. Oh, no! Wait! We wouldn't even be here if it wasn't for Jaeden's selfish's mistake.
- Selfish? Seriously?- Jaeden starts
- It was a mistake. You said it yourself- Wyatt interrupts- We all make mistakes. Don't we?
- That's true- Noah nods
- You, for example, make super bad choices.
- Why don't you shut up, Wyatt?
- Why don't you all shut up?- the cop screams, from outside the cell

JACK's P.O.V.
I wake up in a hospital's bed. Asher's by my side and my wrist is full of bandages.
- Hey...- I whisper- You're still here
- Hey! You're awake! Of course I am
- Thank you...- he whispers
- So... how are ya?
- I'm... fine. I guess
- Are you going to explain what happened?
- You know what happened. Jaeden told me about Finn's true feelings.
- But... you self harmed.
- I did
- Have you done this before?
- Yeah. A few times...
- Do you really think a boy is worth that much?
- Not any boy. We're talking about Finn
- Finn's just like any boy
- Apparently, he is. But he's special to me. He's my first
- You two had...
- I'm not talking about that! You know what I mean. He's the first boy I've loved.
- First ones are not always the best ones
- Stop saying all your quotes. They're annoying, and not gonna work on me
- What do you...?
- I mean, I'm not gonna be with you
- What?
- Even tho Finn may be an asshole, I love him, and I need time to forget him. A LOT of time.
- Why is he still so important to you when he doesn't give a shit about you?
- We're not the same. I don't know if he got over me, or what the hell happened, but I still love him, and even tho I'm hurt, I'll do anything I can to find out what really happened
Asher looks at me, and I try not to look at his eyes. I get a call from my step mum.
- Oh, just in time- I whisper- Hey! What's up?
- Finn's been arrested?
- WHAT!?- I scream
- Finn's at the airport. He's been arrested with Jaeden, Wyatt, Noah and Sadie
- Noah and Sadie are here?- I whisper
- Where are you?
- I'm... it doesn't matter. I'm going
- To the airport? Be careful honey. I heard it's full of reporters now that they know the kids are there
- I will be. Thanks, Jan!
- No problem. I wish I could go...
- It's okay... you keep rocking that job!
After Jana finally finishes the call, I take the serum off, and get up
- What the fuck?- Asher says- Jack? What are you doing?
- Finn's been arrested! I gotta go.
- You can't go!?
- Try me
I grab my clothes and run out of the hospital, still in my gown, and call an Uber, which arrives pretty fast.
Inside, I get changed, and wait at least fifteen minutes til the driver finally says
- We're here, sir.
- Okay, thanks.
I open the back door, and prepare to run to the Helping Center when a thousand flashes suddenly shine on my face.
- Jack! What happened to Finn?
- Are you aware of the events that took place here?
- Is it true that Finn and the rest were fighting for you?
I avoid every single question, and finally get in the airport.
- Wow. They keep getting more and more irritating every time I see them- I whisper
I finally walk to the Information Center, where I ask about the detention area. The girl gives me some directions, and I nod.
- You'll find it pretty easy. There are two guards on the entrance.
- Okay, thanks.
I start running again. This airport is HUGE, and I really need to find Finn.
This is such a mess... I've been walking round for at least ten minutes, and I'm totally lost.
I take a while, til I find two cops, standing in front of a door.
I stop walking, and suspire. It's time of PLAN A
- Guys? I've just been stolen! The thief ran that way!- I scream, pointing at my left.- PLEASE, HELP ME!
They both look at me, but don't move even a little.
- Okay... looks like it's not gonna work.
I get close to them, and fake a smile
- Listen... I have to see one of your prisoners? Is that something I can do?
- Sorry. They can't have visitors
- They can't? But even real prisoners can get visitors! What kind of airport jail is this?
- This is not jail. They can't have visitors. Just parents.
- Okay then... plan C.
I start walking away, just to attack at one of the cops.
Of course, they easily stop me, but I don't give up. I keep, and keep trying until they're angry enough
- LET ME IN!- I scream
- Get away!- one of them says- If not, we're gonna have to detain you.
- Well, then, I guess you'll have to.

FINN's P.O.V.
I hear a noise outside that makes me jump out of bed- out of the bench, actually-.
- Guards?- I ask
They both stand next to our cell. Apparently, they caught some other criminal...
One of them pushes the guy in the cell, and closes it.
He gets up, and I finally recognize him.
- Jack?
Jaeden and the rest look at us
- Finn!
He hugs me, and I kiss him on the lips.
- What the hell is going on?- I ask
- You first. I thought you didn't love me
- Of course I do
- But Jaeden said...
- I'm sorry.
Jaeden gets up and hugs Jack
- I shouldn't have done that
- You made it up?- Jack asks
- I did... I mean, Finn told me to talk to you, but he just wanted me to tell you that he was having a panic attack
- You had a panic attack?- Jack barely screams
- Not the right time, Shrimp.
- Why did you do that?- Jack asks Jaeden- I thought we were friends...
- I was really mad at you for the things you'd done to Talia. But now I kinda get it
- You do?- he asks
- You do?- I interrupt
- When I was mad, I made a big mistake: I made you two fight, and you could be death right now. I get that you were really mad. You've been through a lot lately, and I can't expect you to always make the right thing.
- Aw!- Jack says
- And Finn? I'm really sorry, bro.
I smile at Jaeden. I'm still mad at him tho...
- Wait. Didn't Asher tell you what happened?
- No... did he know?
- I used my call trying to fix things up with you. I needed to know you were alive
- Do you really think you're THAT important in my life? I wouldn't kill myself because of you
I grab his wrist, and then kiss his forehead.
- This says another thing...
He laughs a little.
- I love you, Jack.
- Love you too, Bubba.
We get close, and about to kiss when my brother gets into the room, interrupting us
- Finn? We're leaving
I look at him, and frown
- Say goodbye to everyone, cause this is probably the last time you'll see them in a while
- What? Why?
- You're going to a Rehab Center in Canada.
