“God Madison, you could have left out what my brother was doing!”
“Well you wanted to know everything. Do you want to know his dick size too because let me tell..” She slapped her hand over my mouth and said, “Finish that sentence and you’ll be sleeping with the fish! Now I’m going to bed and you better pray I don’t have any nightmares because of you!” She stormed into her room and if I knew just bringing up Knox’s dick would make her go to bed, I would have started off with that. I shook my head laughing at her antics and made my way to my room.
When I finally laid down, I couldn’t help think about Jude. I still can’t believe I punched him in the nose, but I’d be lying if I didn’t say it felt good. The ass totally deserved it and threatening to break me, what a joke. He thinks I’m still the fragile little girl he knew, but I’m far from it. He doesn’t even realized he broke me a long time ago when he left.
People always say you don’t know love when you’re young, but what I felt for Jude I never felt for anyone else. He was the reason I kept waking up every morning and when he would smile at me I would feel like my heart was ready to beat out of my chest. The day before he left when he kissed me, God I felt it all the way to my toes. He was that one of a kind love that as much as he makes me hate him now, I can never erase how I used to feel. Who am I kidding, I still feel it and it pisses me off.
Chapter Eighteen
Madison
By the time I tried falling asleep, my alarm went off. I got up, showered, and headed towards the kitchen in need for coffee. Stella was already waiting at the table with a steaming cup and my favorite breakfast, chocolate chip pancakes.
“I’m sorry!” She blurts out quick and I’m confused why she’s apologizing, so I raised my eyebrow up signaling her to continue.
“I should have followed you outside when you left class to make sure you were alright. I was just really confused because usually you just ignored what people say, so I thought maybe you just went to get some air. When you didn’t come back I tried calling you and it went to voicemail. I figured you were mad at me, but I did go look for you and supposedly so did Knox. I’m really sorry Madison.” She looked at me with her watery blue eyes and I felt terrible that she thought I was mad at her. Stella had no idea the real reason I was upset because the memories of Mr. Montgomery popped in my head. I never told her what happened to me and what happened at the cabin was kept privately. When it was released on the news, I was a minor and they couldn’t say my name. It also helped it was the last day of class, so I just told Stella I was sick while I was at home healing.
“It’s ok and I didn’t forward you to voicemail my phone died. Shit, I left it at Knox’s, I have to head back there before class.”
“So we’re good?”
“Hundred percent, but listen there are things that happened in my life that I will eventually tell you but on my time.”
“Take all the time you need. I’m here when you’re ready to talk.”
“Thanks, shit I left my bag and car there too. Can you drive me over?”
“Yeah let me grab my keys.”
We got into her car and started heading off to Knox’s. I was praying they all would be sleeping or heading to class. I really needed God to give me a break because I was not in the mood to run into Jude or Knox.
“Do you want to come in while I look for my bag?”
“No thanks, I rather not run into Knox’s sluts.” She looked disgusted and I couldn’t help mess with her more.
“You sure, maybe we’ll get to see another round!” She threw me the middle finger and stepped on the gas.
I headed to their front door realizing I didn’t have the spare key since it was in my bag that hopefully was inside. I looked in the driveway and everyone’s car was gone. Rem must have left early this morning. I felt bad for him since his dad begged him to come live with him, but he barely saw him unless he was with one of his many women. His mom passed away this year and he was hoping to finally have a parent in his life. Sometimes you’re just better off on your own since you can’t depend on anyone but yourself.
I knocked on the door, hoping even one of the blondes was here to open it. I heard no one coming to the door, so I rang the bell a few more times just hoping someone would answer. Right when I was ready to start walking back home, I remembered they had a patio door in the back. Of course the back door was locked too, but I noticed the bathroom window was open.
I grabbed the garbage can to get up on it to reach the window and I opened the screen. Thank god I was on the smaller side or I’d never fit. I had to shimmy in head first and thanking Jesus that they put the toilet seat down. I was half way in when my hands
