MY FIRST LOVE

Chapter 30 (Care)

Kate's prov

John saw me lying on the floor, he rushed towards me and scooped me up like it's nothing. I told everything to him in the car and he was pretty upset about it. I told him to clam down because he just got out from all the tension thing, so I don't want him to worry anymore and it's Saturday....which means party time....at his house because he's not even letting me move of course. I think someone else's is also here in this house but it could be his brother and no matter how close we are now, John doesn't like talking about him. I am in his room it's a cool room to be in, typical guy types, picture of bands, drum set, video games and fully messed up. I chuckled and slowly drooped into a peaceful sleep.

Jake's prov

I left her there...... yup that was low but I din't care less right? I hate her and plus that's what she wanted. We both aren't good when we're......normal, it feels wierd..... like I am gonna forget everything and believe her or maybe I'll remember everything and start blaming her or confront her. I shook my head clearing my mind from every thought and headed home, I saw John in the kitchen searching for something furiously and again he's back to the pissed off brother, I don't know what happened to him now but I can't just sit here and watch him going back to those dark, drunk days. I mustered some courage for starting a conversation that I may regret for rest of my life. " Is everything okay?" I asked him " I am looking for some painkillers and juice. You know where it is?" He asked me. Asked me, not yell at me or pushed me away "Ya.... I know. Are you akay?" He nodded at me for a second, I took that as an opportunity and took out some medicines, handed him the juice and smiled. He didn't return my smile instead he grabbed those things and ran towards his room. I followed him slowly to see what's up with him, but he closed the door from inside. I heard him talking to someone and then he chuckled. So this was for the girl he's seeing, I wonder who she is, she has to be great if she made him back to normal in not more than a week. I had this urge to knock the door and see my brother smiling, happy and normal. But now may not be the right time, I jumped on the couch and started watching How I met your mother, I liked this serial it's entertaining and has less drama then any others. I don't know when but am pretty sure I took a nap, it's seven. "Let me in.....Please" I heard john yelling and banging on the door, I got there "What happened?" I asked but got cut off by the mystery girl "No. You are singing a song for me right now or I am not letting you in here everr....." I chuckled which earned me a death glare from John. John growled and replied " Okay. I'll get my guitar from upstairs." He walked fast and got his guitar....... and he started SINGING. it's been 46 days since I heard im sing. He gave me the 'Get out of here' look so I did. I was in the kitchen listening him singing 'Why not me ' by Enrique.  When he finished I heard her opening the door and she let John in. John came out after fifteen minutes, grabbed his car keys, looked at me seriously " I'll be back in ten minutes and That girl up there is very important. if anything happens to her or even I see you around her, I am going to kill you and you know I can do that.... stay away from her." he warned me and left before I can reply. I punched the wall in frustration, why he's like this...... why would he even think that I'll be a problem to his girl. Can't he be the brother he was before, he's over Cami but the way he's with me is just unexplainable. I hate this. I kept punching on the wall harder and harder every time, then someone called me from behind "Are you okay? " I froze..... Every single nerve in my body gave up. I stopped but din't dare to turn around because I am afraid that the voice I heard belongs to the girl about whom John cares soo much and I..........am just thinking things. I closed my eyes shut and refused to open it or move. "Hey.....it's going to be okay. Look here." She kept her hand on my right shoulder sending a wierd feeling or vibes to me. I turned around and all four eyes got wide in shock..mine and her's. We both looked like we have seen s ghost "Jake?" KATE breath out making it sound like a question. I stood there because.......... I don't know what to do or how to react or what do I say. I am all blank, clueless,  speechless. "I gotta go" she broke the silence and started walking towards the door but failed miserably because of her sprain.....it must be hurting her, I tried stopping her but she..... being her one and worst stubborn type din't let me. So I scooped her up in my arms and set her on the couch....while ignoring the punches I got in less than forty seconds. "Just stay here, you are hurt and you'll make your injuries worst then they already are." I said and noticed concern in my voice, she sighed " like you care ." I have no idea why I said this but it sounded soo awkward to my own ears that if Kate would pass out right now, it wouldn't be a shock because I blurted out that "I do...and I'll always care for you." She looked at me and gave me the sarcastic laugh saying " I almost believed that." which made me angry I never expected her to say that " You shouldn't....Anyways What the hell are you doing here? " I asked her rudely. She asked me like it's the most unbelievable thing in this world "You are his brother?" She might know the reason why John is not talking to me but should I ask her? Wait no of course not, she's not going to tell me.....but why John is with her she's cami's sister "I was wrong when I thought you wouldn't hurt anyone. What you did to your brother just made me realise how wrong I was. Can't believe y....." I interrupted her "What did I do? Kate if you know something then tell me." She shook her head and tried standing up....I moved forward to help her but she din't let me. She started walking towards the door "My mom died when I was four, I didn't know what was she like but John loved me more than anyone can. He's my life, he's the reason I am standing here, but suddenly it all changed Kate, he turned his back towards me...the brother who loved me by his life....now wants to kill me for some reason and I swear to god that I have no clue what happened....it's killing me every single minute....if you know anything then tell me please I beg you. " I begged her and she looked at me with confusion she opened her mouth to say something but seems like she can't find the right words. I heard car stopping and I knew John was here, it's not right to be here when he already mentioned that he don't want here so I took few steps back but kate grabbed my wrist. John opened the door, the first thing he saw was Kate holding me in my place, I don't know why but I don't want her to keave me. "Kate....What's going on?" He looked between us then stopped at me  "What happened?" Kate gave a little squeeze to my wrist before replying him "John.... I am leaving and I won't talk to you until....you clear up things with Jake. There is so much you both need to know. " she let go of my hand....suddenly it all felt wierd like I din't wanted her to leave or I wanted her by my side "Your not leaving and I told you already I have nothing to say to him. You can't fix everything kate it's my life I'll do whatever I want to." He yelled at kate " Okay then do whatever you want John but do it alone because I won't be there to stop you. You talk to him or you'll never see me again that's for sure." She replied and walked out.
