~Ariadne~ I looked out the window as JC stopped the car, and my smile got huge. I was so happy when I saw my dad. I jumped out the car and ran into his arms. “Hey daddy. I missed you so much,” I smiled at him, flashing him a smile. “And I missed you too, my princess,” Mr. Hernandez smiled. “Well, where will I be staying?” I asked as JC grabbed my hand. “You can stay at my place if you want?” JC asked. “That’d be great,” I said as I put a fake smile on my face. I then watched my dad walk in the police station. I turned to look at JC and glared at him. “Don’t touch me,” I snapped as I slapped him across the face. He then flew his hand across my face, making me drop to my knees. “Gee, you remind me of my FUCKED UP MOTHER. Hey, you might as well be her,” I said as I stood up in his face. “Did you just say that? Fuck you!” JC said as he pushed me up against the wall. I then looked at him, with tears running down my face. I don’t think I’ve been this scared in my life. I was like shaking and my boyfriend here was scaring me to death. I looked away just wondering what was next. He meant everything to me but damn, he was bringing back memories of my mother. “JC!” Lance said walking up to him, “Are you crazy? I know you may been upset but dude, look at your girlfriend,” Lance said letting out a deep sigh. “Just let me go,” I said as my body started to tremble with fear and exhaustion. “Oh my god. Ariadne, I didn’t mean it. Baby, I guess when you started to kiss on Yvonne, I got mad,” JC said, grabbing my hand as a tear escaped his eyes. “Just let me be,” I said as I pulled my hand away. I walked away from JC and Lance as tears came rolling down my face. I brought my hand to my face as it stung. Cheyenne and Yvonne came up to me. “Did he hit you?” Cheyenne asked pissed off. “Yes...” I said biting my lip. ~Cheyenne~ As Ariadne told me what else Josh did, I couldn’t believe this. I saw Lance and JC kissing and it made me sick. I mean, he was my best friend and damn, he wasn’t doing a damn thing. I then parted myself away from Yvonne and Ariadne. I then pulled JC away from Lance’s lips. “Why you do that for?” JC asked pissed off. “I can’t believe you. She’s been through so much and for crying out loud, you hit her and called her names,” I said glaring at him. “What’s it to you? You got Ben. Just mind your own damn business,” he said looking to me and grabbed Lance’s hand, “Lance and me are going to go to my place.” “You aren’t the Josh Chasez I knew,” I said as I walked away. ~Lance~ I looked at JC and sighed. Why was he acting this way? I then saw Ariadne talking to some guy. “Hey Jace, who is Ariadne talking to?” “I don’t know,” he said with a shrug. “Should we find out?” “Yeah,” he said as he led us over to where she was. “Dan, I so love you,” Ariadne said hugging him, “That’s so good to hear. You are having another daughter. I wish I could have kids but I haven’t found the right guy yet.” “Well, when it happens, I’ll be there,” he said kissing her cheek. “I will let you know,” she flashed him a smile. “Um, who are you?” JC asked suddenly. “I am Dan Miller. I’ve been Ariadne’s best friend since we were five,” he said smiling a little, “Who are you?” “I’m JC, Ariadne’s boyfriend.” “Boyfriend? Wow, I didn’t know you had one,” Dan said softly. “I don’t have one. I am single as I can be,” she smiled, “Tell Britney I said hi, okay?” “All right baby. I sure will,” he said as he gave her a chain. “What’s this?” “Look closely.” ~Ariadne~ As I looked closely to the chain, my heart stopped. It was the chain he gave me when I was twelve. It had the words Dan and Ariadne equals Friendship forever. “Aw Danny,” I said hugging him tightly, “Thank you.” “Your welcome. Well, I got to go now. I got to buy some baby clothes for our one-year old,” he said laughing a little. “Okay bye,” she said as she kissed his cheek before he walked away. “You aren’t single, Ariadne,” JC said walking up to me as everyone walked in the building. “I’m not?” I asked looking to him. “No! You are my girlfriend....” “Well, you sure aren’t acting like it. You have hurt me more than my mom has in a whole year,” I said holding back my tears, “Seriously, what did I do to you? I am trying my very best to make you happy but...” I got interrupted by JC’s lips crashing on mine. I felt his tongue slide into my mouth, rubbing it against mine. All off a sudden, I started to get butterflies as I felt him suck on my bottom lip with anticipation. I moaned gently as I ran one of my hands through his brown, spiky hair, while my other hand went to his neck as my fingernails ran over his neck. I then felt him pull away as my eyes fluttered open as I had tearstains on my cheeks. “Baby, why didn’t you tell me about the kiss?” “I was scared but why did you have to call me a bitch and hit me?” I asked him as I ran my hand over my cheek, soothingly. “I was worried I guess you can say. But that gives me no reason for what I did, Ariadne. You are my world,” he said looking in my eyes, “Do you still want to be my girl?” “If you let me and don’t hurt me again in any way.” I then felt his lips brush against mine and I couldn’t be more happier. ~Yvonne~ I shook my head as I held Lance’s hand. “Those two need some therapy,” I said seriously. “I agree with you but JC needs to calm his nerves down,” Lance said softly, “I can’t be with him if he’s going to keep hurting her.” “I know baby. He has to watch it, though,” I told him, giving his hand a light squeeze. “I agree with you, Yvonne,” Cheyenne replied as she approached us with Ben, “He’s always been a worry-wart, and well it scares me because he can actually lose Ariadne big time.” “Well, yeah, he can,” Ben replied as they walked inside the building. “Wow, this is nice,” I said looking around and I spotted a couple, “Who is that?” “That’s the detectives. Detective Timberlake and Detective Martin. As you can tell, they are together,” Ben said laughing. “Wow, is everyone hooked up?” “Nope,” Ariadne said as she entered the police station with JC, “My dad is still single.” “Hey Timberlake!” JC called. Justin turned his head from Samara and his smile got huge. He walked up to him and gave him a hug, with a pat on the back. “Hey man, when did you get back?” Justin asked looking at everyone. “We just got back not to long ago.” “Well, actually, Lt. Hernandez is taking everyone on a trip in a couple days so there is not much to do,” Samara replied flashing a smile. “Well, I can’t wait. Anything with my father, I am all up for it,” Ariadne said grinning. “Would my daughter love to help me with paper work?” Lt. Hernandez asked approaching them. “Sure. Lead the way, daddy,” she said taking his hand and dropping JC’s hand. “But Ariadne, what about me?” JC pouted. “I’ll be back as soon as I can,” she said kissing his cheek and walked away with her father. “So, you guys are okay?” I asked as I gave Lance’s hand a little squeeze. “Yeah. I seriously feel bad for what I did. It’s just the fact I’ve been so hurt in the past and I took it out on Ariadne. She forgave me but I don’t know why.” “She loves you, Josh. She told me she thinks you could be the one for her,” Cheyenne replied with a smile. “Are you shitting me?” JC asked in shock. “No babe. She told me not to tell you but I think you should know. You two are in love,” she said smiling a little. ~Josh~ I could not believe my ears. I didn’t even know what to do anymore. I just found out that Ariadne thinks I may be the one for her. I already thought she was it for me. I smiled as I led them to a big round table. “This police station is really nice,” Lance said looking around. “There is a whole lot more too,” I said smiling. “Can we get a tour?” Yvonne asked suddenly. I nodded my head as I started the tour. |
