He pulled and pushed me into the bathroom but when I flatly refused the shock of severe pain against my cheek. I grabbed my face staring at him, “What the hell did you do that for?”

“Paul, do you love her?”

“Yes, of course I do that is why I need to wait here for her to come back.”

“No! Do you want her to come back?”

“Yes, but if I wait for her she comes every night. I just have to wait in the…”

“No! Is this helping you? I’ll answer that. No, it’s not! You need to go to school and finish the school year. We only have two and a half weeks left and you need to finish this.”

I had to agree with him. I decided to get in the shower, but he continued to talk to me.

“You need to show her that you’ve grown up and you appreciate the time you have together, and that you will be able to support her. Besides, it doesn’t help you to feel sorry for yourself.”

I got out of the shower. He did leave the bathroom, but he left the door open. I walked out glaring at him, “Fine, I am going.”

He grabbed his stuff and waited for me when I walked out. He laughed and I turned around in a circle wondering what he was laughing for.

“Paul, it’s not final like Annie. You can change this and you have a year to get your shit together.”

“Fine, I said I was going.”

“Yeah, well you might want to put pants on before we go.”

Taking notice that I forgot to put those on I walked back in my room and put pants on my body.

If you like the beginning of this story read It’s Not Over. You’ll see what happens for Jessica and Paul once she returns home.
