place my hand on his knee, giving him a reassuring squeeze.

"Hey Tobias." I say quietly, breaking the tension at the table. The conversation has been light and friendly until now and I didn't want that to change. Tobias completely ignores me and grabs a plate, loading it high with food.

"Emily spoke to you Tobias. Don't be rude." Myra says firmly, giving him a sidewards glare. All she got in return was a grunt before he turns and walks back out of the kitchen with his plate in his hands. I shuffle uncomfortably in my chair and fiddle with my fork and knife, scraping it against the plate.

"Idiot." I hear Jake mumble beside me and Myra slams her fork and knife down, surprising us all. She pinches the bridge of her nose, looking very annoyed.

"Whatever is going on between you two needs to end soon Jake! This has been going on for years, I cannot have you two fighting under my roof any longer!"

"Aunty Myra, I haven't done anything! It's him, he's an asshole!" Jake hisses, slamming his cup down onto the table. I feel Ivory stiffen beside me, clearly uncomfortable from the situation.

She isn't the only one.

"I know he hurt you Jake but it's been years! Can't you at least try to get along, for my sake?" Myra asks desperately, taking a large drink of her wine. Jake's chair scrapes back before he stands up —

"I'm sorry Aunty M, I'd do anything for you but forgive him is the one thing I can't do. Every time we get somewhere, he ruins it again!"

The door swings open forcefully and Tobias stands in the doorway, fire in his eyes. He glares at Jake, his fists clenched on either side.

"It's been years Jake! I've said how sorry I am, it was a mistake!" He yells, his voice filling the kitchen. I slide lower in my seat and close my eyes, the arguments between these two just never ends.

"How is sleeping with my ex a mistake?" Jake yells back at him.

"She was all over me man! I was weak and it was a mistake!"

"That is enough!" Myra screams, standing from her seat and stepping between the two boys. She points at Jake and Tobias, her chest rising and falling quickly from her anger.

"If you two don't find a way to get past this, you're both leaving this house! I will not have this fighting and anger in my home any longer!" She screams before placing a hand over her chest. She sits back down in her seat, leaving the two boys staring at each other in shock.

Ivory's eyes widen at her mum's words and so does mine. The tension in the room grows and everyone remains frozen to the spot, unsure of how to react. Tobias is the first to cut through the silence.

"Mum?" He asks uncertainly, his chest rising and falling heavily.

"I mean it Tobias, I've had enough," Myra says firmly, pouring herself another glass of wine. At this rate, she'd go through the entire bottle within minutes.

Living with Jake and Tobias can do that to you.

"Unbelievable!" Jake mutters, shaking his head. He pushes past Tobias and storms upstairs, his heavy footsteps echoing through the house. I hear his bedroom door slam shut and I slide further down into my seat until my knees were practically touching the floor.

Hello drama.

 

 

Chapter Forty Six - “You’re so beautiful.”

I pad softly up the stairs, glancing down at my watch. Jake has officially been locked away in his room for almost four hours. Myra shocked us all with her outburst but I can't help agreeing with her. The feud between Jake and Tobias is exhausting and we all want it to come to an end. I pause in front of Jake's bedroom door before knocking on it.

A minute passes and there's no answer. I roll my eyes, knocking on it again.

"Are you ignoring me? Pfft," I huff, spinning on my heel. The door suddenly swings open and Jake grabs my arm, dragging me into his room. My eyes widen as he slams the door shut behind me, pinning me against the wall.

"Jake, what are you doing? You crazy —"

He lets out a frustrated groan before silencing me by crashing his lips against mine.

His kiss is hungry, needy and deep from the start. I wrap my hands in his hair once the shock quickly wears off. His hands travels down my body, in all the right places. I let out a small gasp inside his mouth and Jake pulls back, eyes hooded over. In one swift movement, I find myself being lifted from the ground and carried towards the bed.

Okay, this escalated real fast.

He places me down, nestling between my legs before placing soft kisses down my neck. The feel of his lips caused me to arch my body into him, loving the way he feels against me. My body lights up in flames, the passion between us both so strong. I can feel Jake's breathing shallow out as he pulls back, a frown on his face.

"I don't want to hurt you," he breathes out uneasily, tugging at his hair with his hands. I sigh and looked away, blinking.

"Even with Jones dead, he still finds a way to ruin my life." I whisper, feeling my stomach twist with knots. Every time I feel pain, it reminds me of Jones and what he did to me. In a sick way, it's almost like he planned it to be this way. So I can never forget him.

"Hey, look at me." Jake whispers, causing me to turn my face back towards him.

"It's not forever, it'll heal," he says quietly, planting a gentle kiss on the side of my mouth. So different from the passionate crazed one he had given me mere seconds ago.

"I'll always remember it though, he'll always haunt me
