Save Me From Myself
Jace's Visit
"Dude that was such a fucking cheat shot!" Ashley ragged on his controller. Jake had been kicking Ashley's ass at COD. Now he was making excuses. Which, to me, was hilarious. Andy and I were sitting on the couch, while Jinxx, CC, and Paige were drinking alcohol in the half-kitchen.
I started to zone out the others, and focused on Andy. He must have felt me staring, cause after a moment, he returned my stare. A half-smile formed on his lips. That smile made me melt. I scooted in so close I was practically sitting on his lap. I laid my head on his shoulder, and his head titled on mine. He lightly look my hands, and the warmth of him spread through my body. Just then, a random thought popped in my head.
"Hey Andy?"
"Yup?"
"Have you ever thought of growing your hair back out?"
He shrugged as we looked at each other. "I was thinking about it, but I wasn't sure if anyone would like it."
"Are you kidding?" I flicked his shoulder. "Everyone loved your hair! Remember the length it was back in 2013? You should grow it out like that!"
He thought about it for a moment. "Alright... but only for you, princess."
I giggled and blushed. We stared into each other's eyes for a moment, then Andy placed his hand on my cheek, and our lips quickly connected. Our lips found rhythm and I felt Andy swipe his tongue across my bottom lip. I teased him, and denied. He asked again, but I kept denying until a growl rose deep in his throat, and he was practically begging for entrance. Finally, I opened my mouth to him, and his tongue pushed in. We battled until I gave in, letting him explore my mouth. The kiss got more passionate, and his hands grasped onto my waist. I wrapped my arms around his neck, and the kiss deepened.
But, just as I went to battle him again, my phone buzzed.
Usually, interruptions made us break apart and jump back, but not this time.
Andy slowly pulled back his tongue, and the kiss slowly drew to an end. As our lips parted, his hands never left my waist. His arms snaked around my hips, and he pulled me into his lap. Freeing one of his hands, he stroked my hair as I checked my phone. I silently gasped at who had texted me. Jace... "Hey, what's up? It's Jace," was all it said.
I quickly texted back. "Hey. Nmu?" Then, I slid it back into my pocket.
"Who was it?" Andy asked, raising an eyebrow. I stuttered.
"U-um no-no one," I tried to find the right words. Andy gave me a stern look. But even so, he still continued stroking my hair.
"Was it Jace?" He muttered.
I sighed, and nodded. "He just asked what's up, I swear."
Andy groaned and lightly kissed my nose. "I believe you. I just... get worried. And..." he trailed off.
"Aww," I cooed. I took his face in my hands and softly kissed his lips. "Don't worry, please. Nothing's gonna happen."
Andy just gingerly sighed, and pulled me in close. I was sitting bridal style in his lap. Slowly, I rested my head on his chest, and with his hand, He caressed my cheek. His light touch made me shiver, and he silently chuckled. Just then, my phone vibrated again.
I looked at Andy, my eyebrows furrowed. But he just smiled and nodded. "It's ok to use your phone. I'm not gonna control you and tell you who you can and can't talk to."
I smiled and checked my phone. My heart dropped.
"Thinking about how gorgeous you are... I'm really glad I met you. You're super cool. Wanna hang out tonight?"
Sheer terror plastered across my face. What would Andy think? I knew Jace made him uncomfortable... was it really ok to hang out with him?
Andy gave me a strange look, and took my phone.
His facial expressions turned slightly angry. But what he said next suprised me.
"Go ahead. Hang out with him. Bring him over. You guys can watch movies or something..."
I took his hand, but he didn't seem into it. "A-are you sure?" I cautiously asked. He leaned into me. And suddenly the grip on my hand tightened.
"Like I said. I trust you... hang out with Jace. It's ok."
I gave him a sincere, warm smile and texted Jace back.
"Sure! How does 8:30 work? Come over then." I told him the address and sent the message. Looking at the time... it was 7:24. Shit.. the day went by fast.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The doorbell rung at 8:30 on the dot. Andy had gone upstairs. I guess so he didn't have to see Jace...
I opened the door. Jace stood there, hands in his black jean pockets. He smiled big as I led him inside.
"Hey Jace!" I said, giving him a hug. "Great to see you again!"
He half-smiled. It was cute, but not as cute as Andy's.
"So," I asked, "wanna watch a movie?"
"Sounds great." He trudged over to the couch and plopped down.
I sat down next to him. "Let's watch Bridesmaids!" He chuckled.
"Anything you want." I put in the dvd, pressed play, and the movie began.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Oh my god!" My sides were killing me from laughing too hard. Jace must have felt the same way. He was holding his stomach. We were both dying.
"That's the best part of the movie right there!" Jace yelled.
We slowly got undercontrol, and finished up the last part of the movie.
When it ended, the credits rolled, then there was just a black screen.
"That was such a good movie!" I looked over to Jace. "Wanna watch another one?"
He didn't answer, he just looked at me with serious eyes. His face got closer.
"Jace?" I nervously asked, trying to scoot away. "What are you-?"
I was cut off as his lips pressed hard against mine. Shocked and slightly scared, I put my hands on his chest, trying to push him away.
"Mmm," he moaned, trying to deepen the kiss, "I love the way you struggle. And the way you grab my chest."
I started to freak out. I put my feet against his hips and tried to push away, but he was too strong. He forced me onto my back, and before I could react, he forced his tongue into my mouth.
"No! Stop!" I yelled through the forced kiss. "I don't want this! A-an-!" I tried to yell Andy's name, but choked on fear.
Jace groaned again, pressing his body against mine. "Telling me to stop just makes me want you more, Emily... I want you so bad. You'll be trembling and begging for more when I'm done with you."
His hands hooked onto my waist, and started moving up my bare stomach. I tried so hard to scream. I was so petrified. His hands cupped around my breasts, and he squeezed them hard. It hurt. It hurt so bad. I somehow managed to find my voice.
"Andy!" I screamed at the top of my lungs, my voice craking with fear and pain. In seconds, I heard a door rip open. "Emily?!" I heard a familiar voice yell in reply. I looked back to Jace, who though had fear in his eyes, continued to touch me. His hands had moved down, and he started to rub me through my pants. Just as I felt him start to slide his hand into my panties, a large force yanked Jace off of me.
I sat up gasped for breath, panting and crawling into the corner of the couch. Andy was there, pure fury on his face.
"What the fuck are you doing?!" Andy gritted through his teeth. "What the hell is wrong with you?! I oughta beat the shit out of you!" Jace's back was against the wall, and Andy held him there, his hands wrapped around Jace's throat. I was too scared to say anything. All I could do was shutter, and breath in quick, ragged breaths.
Jace spit venom in his words. "You're a rockstar," he hissed. "A terrible one at that! You won't always be there for you! What happens when you go on tour and leave her all alone, huh? You're no good for her!" He spat out the last sentance with emphasis. This only made Andy even more infuriated.
"Get out of my fucking house! Go!" He grabbed the back collar of Jace's shirt, and half dragged, half carried him to the front door. He pulled open the door and threw Jace out. Literally.
"If you ever, ever, fucking touch my Emily again, I swear to god I'll fucking kill you!" He slammed the door shut and ran to where I was; still trembling as far back into the couch as I could manage.
Andy quickly jumped onto the couch, and pulled me into a tight embrace.
"Emily..." he kept repeating. "I'm so sorry. Oh my god I'm so sorry. I should've- oh god I- I'm so sorry."
I pulled away, but he grabbed my hands, deep sadness plastered his face, and I couldn't stop shaking.
"Did- did he... touch you?" Andy asked, misery in his voice.
"Y-yes," that was all I managed to get out before I broke into tears. My body consulved because of my shaking and crying. It must have been too much for Andy, because he started to shed a few tears as well. Andy never cried... god....
He wrapped his arms around my body, and lowered me down until my head rested against the couch arm. He laid beside me, never letting me out of his arms. I turned towards him, trying to control my tears.
"A-andy..." I weakly said.
His thumb traced my lips. "Yes?" he whispered.
"I- I love you..." i hiccuped. Those 3 words. Those special, beautiful 3 words. It was the first time I'd ever said it. But I meant it...
"Oh, Emily..." elation shined in his eyes. "I love you too.." he kissed my cheek. My forehead. My nose. My lips.
My tears finally came to a stop, though I was still shaking pretty bad.
"You're the most important thing in the world to me," Andy said, our foreheads pressing together. "You are my world. Don't listen to Jace... please. I'll never leave you. I love you, angel."
"I-I'm so happy to hear that Andy... I love you too..."
He continued to kiss me over and over, occasionally moving down to my jawline.
"Stop shaking," he whispered between kisses. "You're safe now. Safe with me." The grip he had around me tightened protectively, and soon, my shaking slowly decreased, until my breathing became normal and steady.
"Just try to sleep now... I promise, I'm not letting go..."
He gave me such reassurance that after a while, I started to breath slower, and my eyelids grew heavy. It was then that I realized how tense I was. Slowly, I relaxed against his body. Andy stroked my hair and sighed.
"Good...goodnight, gorgeous."
Just before I drifted off, I heard Andy say one more thing... and the last bit of my fear was swept away.
"I'm never letting go..."
