Adopted by Pierce The Veil
chapter 9
i looked around waking up with jacob. what the fuck? this really did not make sense. how could ? i hardly knew him. but i liked him. a lot. how could i not. he was really hot. i really wasn't and still had a hard time believing that he was even in to me. what did he want anyway? money? sex? nope not that. i went into the bathroom leaving him there for a second. the bathroom held my secrets and everything that i ever was.
i knew that people viewed me as such a slut at school. and everybody knew about my past. the constant taunting and lying. but did i need that? no. i didn't. how could people be so mean but expect me to be so nice? i looked at my reflection in the mirror, grimacing at it. gross. how did i not notice it then? i was ugly. and thats why my glass had been punched. i can't believe that i actually let myself go like that. fall into a trap, that i had to call my body.
"babe?" jacob asked. i looked over and he looked at me. i guess he saw my tears coming because me ran to me holding me in his arms. he carried me to the bed and looked at me. "are you okay?" he asked. i just nodded. he sighed a bit and then looked at me in my eyes. "you don't have to lie to me, i wont judge you. you never have to worry about that." he said. for once i felt loved. like i actually had a purpose in this dumb thing that we were calling life. but then it struck me. he doesnt care.
"what do you want?" i asked him. "what do you mean?" he asked. "i mean what do you want? i'm so ugly, and you could have so many other girls. why me?" i asked. he looked at me. "because i love you. and you never have to doubt me." he said. i just sighed again. it's not that simple to just love somebody. even if that person is the nicest person in the world. i came back to lap, still confused about most of it."im sorry." i said. he just shook his head at my apology.
"it's fine honestly. i know that you have been through a lot of shit. and i'm glad that we met. he looked at his watch and his eyes widened. "i have to go, but we'll talk." he said as he threw on his shoes. i loved him.
