Huh?
"You have to have sex to get pregnant Jared and that's not something I've done in a while. I need to get something to clean-..."
"Leave it I'll get it" He said cutting me off "Go get some rest I'll see you in the morning".
And that's exactly what I did. I curled myself into a ball in the middle of his bed surrounded by his smell, surrounded by everything that was him and I knew it was probably the biggest mistake ever.
The next morning I was sitting trying to get through breakfast without spewing it back up, the smell was bad enough. Not being able to stand it anymore I pushed my plate away and stuck to my coffee.
"Eat that breakfast you're getting to thin" Loved how my dad just says it how it is. "And get some bloody trousers on church is in 10 minutes. Those fuckers aren't getting the chance to ogle you".
Rolling my eyes I gave his back the middle finger. I didn't move but when the guys came through the door laughing and joking I found myself getting a little nervous.
"You don't speak to her, you don't look at her you got that?".
What the hell?!
Turning my head I noticed Jared with two younger guys that looked terrified. Ah these must be the new prospects. Watching as he smacked one of them on the side of the head I bit my lip.
"Told you not to look at her you little shit".
I think his bottom lip was trembling.
"You think I'm scary wait until you meet her man" He growled. "And you get some bloody trousers on" He hissed ruffling up my hair as he walked past.
Seriously I had reasonably longer shorts on I wasn't exactly sitting with my ass hanging out.
"He's scary but he's got a good heart. I'm Ava and you are?" I asked getting to my feet. None of them would look at me they were looking behind me.
"J-josh and he's Luke" the slightly taller and scrawnier one whispered "Please don't tell him we spoke to you."
"Don't worry I won't" I winked leaving them both with a panicked look on their face.
I must have spent at least an hour in the bath and when I did finally decide to get out my skin was like a prune. Wrapping a towel around my body I headed back to the room. I didn't have to work today so I planned on spending a day treating myself. I never was one for doing it but seeing as I had all this free time on my hands it was time I started looking after myself. Opening up his closet I knew I still had clothes in here from the last time we stayed.
Once I was ready and comfortable I gave myself a once over in the mirror and smiled. For once I felt good. Church was still ongoing so instead of rushing out without any notice I left a note sticking it to a bottle of Jack.
Pulling up outside the salon I ran my fingers through my long blonde hair. Yeah it was definitely time to get rid.
........
I knew they were cops as soon as I pulled into my drive way. Sitting across the street in an unmarked car. Did they think I was stupid?! Lifting my bags from the back seat I continued on my way pretending I didn't notice them.
