She hadn’t said one word the whole time I was speaking, and I couldn’t tell from her face what she was thinking.
“You want to do it?”
“Hell no I don’t want to do it, but it might be the only way to get to the truth about what happened to you that night.”
“Why don’t you let the cops do their job? I have all confidence that they’d get to the bottom of it in time. If this is an excuse for you to go sniffing around your ex well you can just…fuck off Jace Saunders.”
What the fuck? She flew off the bed and headed for the bathroom but I flew off the other side and stopped her. “Where the fuck are you going?”
“Home, and you can have this back you ass.” She tried taking off my ring and giving it to me.
“Have you lost your fucking mind Si?” What the fuck just happened here? One minute we were having a conversation and the next it was world war fucking three.
“Let go of me and get out of my way, I can’t believe you actually think it would be okay to do that.”
“Sian what the fuck do you think I was planning to do here, fuck her? You should know better than that shit.” I think I was a little shocked that she didn’t trust me.
“The fact that you even considered it is an insult, now get out of my way I’m going home and don’t you follow me either Jace.”
“How do you plan on getting there huh?” I snatched up her phone from the nightstand and put it in my pocket before disconnecting the house phone in my room.
“Fine, I’ll walk you asshole.” She’s lucky she was still healing or I’d pop her one. Instead I stood back and watched her in action. It was the first time I’d ever seen her this pissed and boy was it something to behold.
She stormed around the room collecting her things while I stood back and watched. “You done? Now put that shit back where you got it and get your ass back in that bed before you piss me the fuck off.”
“You can go straight to hell and take your bitch with you, I hate you.”
Damn, what the fuck? Women are nuts and this one a little more so than most. I shouldn’t have said shit to her, just went ahead and did what needed to be done and tell her after the fact.
Only I think that would’ve been worse. She was acting as if I wanted to do this shit. I know she couldn’t seriously think that I wanted anything to do with Mandy, so why the fuck was she acting like this?
When it didn’t look like she was about to calm her little ass down anytime soon, I decided to take matters into my own hands before things got anymore out of control.
When she was through shoving her stuff into her bag and checking around, making sure she wasn’t leaving anything behind, I approached her.
Now I’m the one who’s pissed the fuck off. “Are you fucking insane? What the fuck is going on in your head?”
“I’m not the one who’s insane. Just what the hell am I supposed to do while you’re pretending to be with her? Oh I know, why don’t I get myself a pretend boyfriend in the meantime?”
“You wanna fucking die right.”
I dragged the bag off her shoulder and stepped into her. She thought she was bad so she stood her ground. I don’t know why I got so fucking mad at her or was I really mad at myself? Whatever it was, I couldn’t stay there because I might say something that I’d regret.
“You leave this house it’s gonna be your ass.” I threw the bag across the room, slamming it into the wall, and stormed out, leaving her staring after me wide eyed.
“What’s all the screaming about son, Sian okay?”
“Yeah mom she’s fine, make sure she stays put, I’ll be back.”
“Where’re you going?”
“For a quick ride to cool off.” I left before she could ask me any more questions that I didn’t feel like answering.
What the fuck did she mean she was gonna find someone to pretend to be her boyfriend? Who the fuck was she talking about?
I drove around in turmoil for the better part of an hour before heading back. I can’t say that I was any less pissed than when I’d left, but I missed her ass. Fucking sap.
I realized I hadn’t thought about shit while I was out, just driving around trying to figure out who the fuck she had in mind for this pretend boyfriend.
She was in the kitchen with mom when I got back. The two of them clammed up when I walked in and then she turned her back on me like I wasn’t fucking there, wrong fucking move.
“Jace…”
“Stay out of it mom.” I cut her off when she tried to intervene after I grabbed Sian’s hand and pulled her off the stool she was sitting on.
“Hey.”
“Shut your damn mouth.” I pulled her up the stairs as she dug her nails in my hand to get away.
In the room I closed and locked the door before turning to her. “Who the fuck were you thinking about when you said that shit? Stanley?”
“What, who, what are you talking about?” she was talking but I wasn’t hearing a word that she said. It wasn’t lost on me that I had contemplated even playing Mandy’s game and now I was pissed at just the mention of her with some other dick. I had legit reasons for what I was gonna do, she didn’t.
“Come here.”
“I’m not coming anywhere with you acting nuts.” she tried to make it to the bathroom but I snagged her ass and pulled her back. My hands weren’t as gentle as they should’ve been when I tore at her clothes, nor were my teeth when I bit into her neck to hold her in place when she tried wrestling away from me.
