All Grown Up

Chapter 5

Jamie's POV

     Ok today has been a weird day. First off I ran into multiple people who I know I have some sort of connection with. Second: I'm sure that that curly headed guy was the one who drove my dad that night.

     I have no idea but I am not going back to find out. 

     Jake and I had been at the mall a all day today and he still isn't ready to leave. It's kinda funny though, he is still pouting that he didn't get his jumper that he wanted. The thought brought a smile to my face while looking down at the neatly wrapped package under my arm. 

     We were walking when Jake stopped making me run into him.

     I looked up to find that Jake had stopped in front of a Nandos.

We both look at each other wide eyes with wide eyes and ran straight into the food place.

       We have loved Nandos sense we were young.

       My mum said that one of my uncles ALWAYS took me and jake there. I guess that's why we love it so much. We were grown up with it.

       We haven't eaten all day so we were Hungry.

      When we entered Jake went to order our food and I went to get us a table in the very back.

       "I can't believed you stopped us, she got away!" I heard someone say from behind me. I didn't turn around to see what they looked like.

       " well I'm sorry that you two were creeping her out.!" I heard a strong low British accent say. "Who was the guy with her?" They were trying to be very quiet but it wasn't working.

      "I have no clue, but he seemed familiar yet I hate his guts," an Irish accent said.

That's when it hit me. That Irish accent. I heard it before. 

Oh my gosh.

It's the guys from earlier!!

The ones that were stalking me and Jake. Then the other guy might be 'curly'

They couldn't be talking about me and Jake right? Nahh

" ok so here is your order boo and your medium Pepsi." Jake said while placing all the food on the table for both of us. Before taking a the seat in the booth in front oF me. I thanked him and started eating.

      "Do you thinks it's her boyfriend?" The guys kept talking. I couldn't help but listen in. I was curious.

        " I have no idea but if he is, he's gotta deal with us, and Louis!" The other British guy with the black quiff said.

Louis??

Why does that name sound familiar.

       "Jake!" I whispered harshly trying to get his attention. He looked up with his mouth full and a piece of chicken dropping from his mouth.

         " whaaa." He mumbled.

         " look behind me, I think it's the guys from the store. The ones that were following us," I whispered.

His face tenses. He swallows and his face turns stern and angery.  He looks behind me.

        " are you serious?!!" He almost yells. Catching the attention of the men.

Jake gets up grabbing my hand and pulls me over to their table.

They look up at us, eyes wide and focused on me. It was creepy. I sent them a sassy face expression.

'Curly' smiled and started laughing mumbling something along the lines of 'just like him' I was confused.

      "Ok listen I'm gonna be straight up. Are you Following us??!" Jake nearly yelled at them.

I couldn't see what their reactions were behind their sunglasses.

       " Cuz you two," he said pointing at the black haired guy and the blind haired guy, "were following my sister in the store, then you followed us out and chased us!" Their mouths were slightly open.

        Before anyone could say anything someone from behind us spoke up. And I turned around to see who it was.

        "Is there a proble........" Once I turned fully around he stopped talking. It was the guy I ran into this morning.

        " no there is no problem, me and my friend here were just leaving," I said quickly feeling a little frightened by all the stares. If we don't leave, the sass masta might make an appearance.

        " hey guys, are we gonna go or...."

A tall man came up behind the guy I ran into, stopping when he set eyes on the scene in front of him. He looks as though he had a tough day.  His hair is the color of mine. Chestnut brown. He has bright blue-green eyes. Just like mine. In fact it was as though he was a male version of me. He was so familiar to me. Even more familiar than any of these guys here. I knew this man. 100% of it.  It was kinda scary.

"What's going on?" He asked. He looked at everyone. He looked over Jakes face. He held a confused expression. It was as though he was deciding whether he should know him or not.

        Jake pulled me to his side and held me tightly.

     That's when the man snapped his  gaze at me. His eyes studying me. Then they went wide.

Our eyes connected. I couldn't look away.

I knew him.

I knew these men.

I knew all of them.

And I know why.

Because standing In front of me, we the same man that stuck his head out that car window, yelling that he will always love me no matter what.

He was the same man that left me and mum for no reason.

These men were my uncles and this man standing before me, shocked out of his mind,

was my father.

All I could do was run.
