Chapter 17| Aurora

We quietly walk into his house when we hear giggling. I bite my bottom lip when i reach his bedroom. I take a deep breath and open the door.

"What the hell is going on!" I yell as they cover themselves. "Aurora babe i can explain "Great. I can't wait to hear your stupid excuse" I say

"I just" He says. "I'm waiting" I say "He just got bored of you" The girl "I believe her more than any excuse you will give me" I say.

He sighs "Yes, i did get bored" He says. "Well maybe i got bored too!" I yell and kiss Zander passionately. He immediately responds and grabs my hands. We back away "Well, nice knowing you Jonathan" I say then Zander and i walk out of the house.

"Why did you do that?" Zander says "Cause i can" I say "And when did i give you permission to use my face?" He says

"I gave myself permission" I say with a smirk. He chuckles "Alright then" He says. I pull him into my house. "What are you doing?" He says.

"Something i should've done a long time ago" I say as i make him sit down on the couch. I grab a chair and a deck of cards "gold fish or build a house of cards" I say.

He starts laughing "You're kidding right?" He says. "No, i don't think so" I say "Well, how about we put the cards down" He says as he grabs the cards and puts them on the table.

"And we do something else." He says as he grabs my hand "Dominos?" I ask nervously "nope" He says as he places his hand on my left cheek.

"What are you doing?" i ask "something i should've done a long time ago" he says "don't play games with me" i say "I'm not" he says as he leans towards me. I close my eyes then feel a pair of lips on mine.

I quickly respond and move my lips along with his, having a warm and fuzzy feeling in my stomach. This boy can do plenty of things. "I'm sorry for letting you down" he says as he grips my waist "no, i'm sorry, i never wanted to ignore you, and now i realize that was one of the biggest mistakes in my life" i say

"don't be sorry, I was being a jerk, you had every right to be mad at me" He says. I hug him not ever wanting him to let me go. The door knocks and i get up to answer it. "Hello officer how may i help you" i say

"I am sorry to say this Miss Anderson but i'm afraid Jackson has escaped" he says. "What!" i scream "This can't be this just can't be!" i say as i run my hands through my hair. "Calm down Miss Anderson, we are on the lookout for him, for now i suggest you stay in your house and keep everything locked" he says

"Alright officer, thank you" i say. "Thank you Misses Anderson" he says then i shut the door. "Zander this can't be happening this just can't" i say

"It will be alright" he says "No it won't. Jackson is more powerfull than you think. He's capable of anything" i say. He rubs my back "I won't let him hurt you" he says "i promise"

Jackson's POV

"Philip you moron!" i yell "I'm sorry! It was an accedent" he whispers "Talk louder dumbass! you're lucky i heard you" i yell some more. "Now go get Jonathan" i say "y-yes sir" he says and leaves. "Jackson" a voice says

"Ah, there's my beautiful Bella" I say as i reach out for her and pull her close to me. "I know you don't like me but believe it or not, you can't decide what happens" I say.

"What do you want" She says "Find me Aurora, then you will get your reward" I say. "Yes sir" She says and then walks away.

"Sir, Jonathan is here to see you" Philip says "Bring him in" I say. He comes in and sits down on the chair in front of me.

"Jonathan" I say "Y-Yes" He says "Don't be nervous you idiot. Did you hurt Aurora like i asked you to?" I ask in an impatient tone.

"Kind of" He says. I slam my hand on the table and stand up "What do you mean kind of" I say "I mean, She didn't seem so hurt, plus Zander started comforting her and all that" He says

I run my hands through my dark hair "Zander. That kid ruins everything!" I yell. "Jackson" He says "What" I snap at him.

"Why do you want Aurora anyway?" He asks "Because only she can give me what i want" I say "Now leave" I say "Yes sir" He says and leaves.

I need to destroy Zander.

Even if murder is the only answer.

Philip's POV

I walk to where Bella was and sit down next to her. "Are you okay?" I ask "Yeah i'm fine" she says.

"What did Jackson do to you?" I ask "Nothing don't worry about it" She says. "I'm worried please you can trust me" I say

She pauses for a while and looks at me "I just can't stand this. Aurora is so sweet and amazing that, i just can't do this to her" She says.

I hug her "We aren't going to do anything to Aurora" I say "What do you mean, Jackson said if we don't do as we say, he will punish us" She says.

"Well, we will just have to come up with something" I say.

Jonathan's POV

I walk out the room about to explode. Jackson will not get his dirty little hands on Aurora.

He's lucky he threatened to hurt my dad if i didn't do what he asked. Aurora means so much to me, but thanks to Jackson, i lost her.

I still love her.

Aurora's POV

I wake up the next day to Zander's arms around my waist. I smile at how peaceful he looks when he sleeps. I try to get up without waking him up but fail.

"Good morning" He says with a stretch and sits up "Good morning" I say. He grabs my hands and looks at me in the eyes "How are you?" He asks "Good" I say

"What do you wanna do today?" He asks "Anything is fine really" I say. He stands up and pulls me up. "I will be right back, i'm going to tell my dad that i'm fine, he must be worrying" Zander says

"Okay" I say. He gives me a kiss and leaves. I change into some sweat pants and a crop top cause i'm feeling lazy today. I walk down to the kitchen and make myself a bowl of cereal and start eating.

Zander's POV

I walk out of Aurora's house and walk to mine. I feel a hand grab my shoulder. I turn around to Jackson i believe his name is "What do you want" I say

"Oh Zander, i just want to talk to you, get a small business going on" He says, his voice raspy and low.

I just look at him "I am not doing 'business' with you" I say "After i tell you what would happen, i won't be so sure about that" He says. I look at him, my jaw tightening.

"You do what i say," He says "Or your dad may get a surprise"
