Chapter 1:

Once upon a time there was a Middle school girl who was in love. The girl had fantasies

about a boy who was in her grade at McCormick Junior High. The only problem was that the boy

didnt know she existed and was popular and she was a geek. The girls name was Anastasia. The

boys name was Jacob. One day a twist of fate happened and it changed Anastasias life forever!That night Anastasia was sitting reading her favorite book Harry Potter and The Prisoner Of

Azkaban by J.K. Rowling when her cell phone beeped. She had a text message.

Who would be texting me? thought Anastasia. She never gave her phone number to anybody

except her friends. She decided to read the text message. It said,

Unknown: I need your help would you be willing to help me?

Anastasia: Sure but what do you need help in

Unknown: Lets just say its a subject you know well

Anastasia: Wait how did you get my number?

Unknown: I have my sources

Anastasia: Wait can I ask you a ?Unknown: Sure

Anastasia: What is your name?

Unknown: I cant say but I can tell you that I go to your school and you see me in the halls

everyday

Anastasia: I have to go

Unknown: Wait, how can you help me if you dont know where we will meet?

Anastasia: Ok where do you wanna meet?

Unknown: How about the McDonalds on 4th Street?

Anastasia: Sure how about at 4 oclock tomorrow?

Unknown: Sure Ill be there bring all your supplies pens, pencils, and textbooks cause yourgonna need them

Anastasia: All right Ill see you there good night

Unknown: Good Night

Ok so Im going to meet a total stranger at McDonalds on 4th street at 4 oclock

tomorrow Anastasia thought

When she told her mom that she was going to be coming home late tomorrow her mom

asked her where she was going. She didnt want to tell her mom that she was meeting some total

stranger so she told her mom

Im going to the library to meet a kid for tutoring. Then her mom said

Ok as long as your home by 7 because Im having my boss over for dinner.

Not again Anastasia groaned

Now try to be nice I know he isnt the nicest man or the most interesting person either but

I really need this raise.

Alright

OK have a nice time.

I will mom. Anastasia went to bed that night dreaming of whom it could possibly be that

wants to meet her.

Anastasia turned around to see whom she had run into, Jacob. Anastasia ran even harder

when she noticed Jacob.

Guys I really have to go, I only have 2 minutes to get to where Im going and thats 3

blocks away

Ok dude well see you at the pool at 7 another friend named Ian reminded Jacob

Ok dudes. With that, Jacob was off.Anastasia waited patiently for her mystery person to show up she kept looking at the door

until five after 4 Jacob walked in. He walked up to the counter ordered his food and while he was

waiting for his food, he searched around the room as if he was looking for someone. When he

had his food, Anastasia noticed that he was walking towards her.

Is this seat taken? he asked

No not at all he sat down and they sat in silence for about 5 minutes while they ate until

Anastasia decided to break the silence by asking him about the text messages.

So were you the one who sent the text messages? Anastasia took out her phone and

showed him the text messages.

Yep thats me, Jacob saidWhy the secrecy? Anastasia asked confused

You would have found out it was me if you had looked in your yearbook where I signed

Jacob said

What do you mean?

I signed your yearbook and put my cell number down. Jacob said looking at her confused

You did! Anastasia said shocked

I must not have noticed I was to busy staring at you Anastasia said shyly a blush coming

across her cheeks

What did I have something in my teeth? Jacob asked

No I just have had I crush on you since we met in English last year Anastasia admittedOh Jacob said not really sounding disgusted at the fact that Anastasia liked him

But I know you already have a girlfriend so Ill stay away

Actually I broke up with her I caught her with my neighbors son Jacob said though not

really looking sad about it

Oh Im sorry Anastasia said actually being genuinely apologetic

Its ok she was wanting to go a little farther in the relationship than I wanted to go Jacob

said making Anastasia shudder slightly

A little too much info there Anastasia said with a look of disgust on her face

Sorry Jacob said being apologetic

Its ok so anyway what is this all about

I need your help Jacob said scratching his head nervously

What could someone as popular as you need my help with? Anastasia said curiously

Something my popularity cant help me with; my homework Jacob admitted

I kind of figured that you needed my help in school, Anastasia said shrugging her

shoulders

Yeah well Ive had tutors and they dont help me so I came to you I figured find someone

in middle school to help me with middle school Jacob explained


4/82

Ok Anastasia said not really getting what Jacob was saying seeing as he wasnt making much

sense

But what I really need help with is Social Studies

One of my best and favorite subjects Anastasia said with a smile

I know thats why I came to you

Ok lets crack the books our homework is page 53 questions 1-5 Anastasia said grabbingher Social Studies textbook out of her backpack

Ok lets get started. Jacob said also getting his textbook out

Chapter 4:

Anastasia and Jacob spent the whole afternoon studying and talking. Until a manager told

them, they had to leave because the restaurant was closing for the night.

Wait what time is it? Anastasia asked

After 9 Jacob said looking at his watch

Oh shit my mom is going to kill me Anastasia exclaimed quickly packing her stuff upHere let me walk you home Jacob said standing up

Ok Jacob grabbed Anastasias hand and he walked her home.

I had a really nice time tonight Jacob Anastasia said shyly

Me too I was wondering if I could take you out to dinner tomorrow night

Sure um Ill text you later and give the details

Ok

I have to get inside before my mom gets more mad then she already is

Ok bye Jacob kissed her on the cheek and then walked off to his house that was three

doors down.

Anastasia ANNETTE Robertson WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN! YOU ARE 2 HOURS

PAST THE TIME YOU SAID YOUD BE HOME! Anastasias mom yelled at her as soon as

she got in the door

Sorry mom I forgot I got caught up at the library

Well Mom if you dont need anything else from me Im going to go to bed

Wait Anastasia Anastasias mom said stopping her half-way on the stairs

Yeah mom

Who was that boy that I saw you with outside?

No one Anastasia said a blush creeping on her cheeks

Alright goofball, see you in the morning

Night Ma Anastasia had a nice sleep dreaming about Jacob.

The next morning Anastasia told her mom about Jacob and that, she had a date with him

tonight.

Oh crap I forgot to text him with the details and if you said yes. He probably thinks I

dont want to have dinner with him.

Text him now tell him I said yes


5/82

Oh mom. Really; thank you. With that, Anastasia ran up to her room to text Jacob.

Anastasia: Hey Jacob Im sorry I didnt text you last night but I fell asleep right when I

went in my room

Jacob: Dont worry about it Anastasia did your mom say yes

Anastasia: Yep right after I told her. She even rented us a limo and is paying for dinner

Jacob: Youre joking rightAnastasia: Nope she is paying for everything

Jacob: Ok so what time should I be at your house?

Anastasia: Dont worry; about it the limo driver is going to pick you up at your house so be

ready by 6

Jacob: Ok see you at school

Anastasia: Shouldnt we act normal at school? So your friends dont suspect anything

Jacob: Oh yeah your right but Ill still see you around. Before you head to school come to

my house for a sec I have something for you

Anastasia: You didnt have to buy me anything

Jacob: It was no problemAnastasia: Ok see you in 2 minutes

Jacob: Okay bye

Anastasia got to Jacobs house in 2 minutes, as she said. Jacobs mom let Anastasia in

Oh you must be Jacobs new girlfriend Anastasia

New girlfriend thought Anastasia.

MOM! Said a familiar voice. She turned around to see Jacob standing at the top of stairs

in shorts and a t-shirt his hair damp from a showerCome on Anastasia your surprise is up in my room Jacob said motioning for me to come

up stairs

Ok Anastasia said wanting to get away from Jacobs mom

Bye mom Jacob said

Bye Mrs. Michaels. When Anastasia walked into Jacobs room Jacobs face turned a

bright shade of red.

Sorry about the mess Jacob said sheepishly

Its ok my room used to be like this too. But now we have a maid Anastasia said

shrugging her shoulders

Sorry if my mom embarrassed you with her comment Jacob said

No its ok Anastasia said

Oh here it is. Anastasia saw that Jacob had pulled out a velvet box and opened it up to

reveal a plain gold band.

Anastasia, would you do me the honor of becoming my girlfriend?

Oh Jacob I would love to but I cant accept that ring it looks expensive Anastasia said

looking apprehensive about taking the ring

Not at all its not that expensive and only the best for you Jacob said with a smile


6/82

Why me? Anastasia asked not really understanding why Jacob liked her so much

I think youre special. Can I walk you to school? Jacob asked

Sure. So Anastasia and Jacob walked hand in hand to school. That is until they were

interrupted when Jacob heard his friends coming up behind them.

Oh shit, Jacob said under his breath.

So Jacob is this who you were with when you ditched us at the pool, said Hunter, one ofJacobs friends.

Yes youve seen her in the halls before and in some of your classes. Guys Id like to

introduce my new girlfriend Anastasia Robertson Anastasia turned around to see that all of

Jacobs friends had their mouths hanging open

So you ditched us to hang around with the school trash, Joel said, suddenly Jacob heard

crying and turned around to see Anastasia running away crying.

See what you did now, Jacob said turning angrily to Joel

We just helped you dude you shouldnt be hanging around with girls like her shell ruin

your reputation Joel said with a sneer, suddenly Joel was on the ground with a broken bloody

nose.Jacob I cant believe you just did that said AJ, Jacobs best friend for as long as he could

remember.

I got to go find Anastasia. Take him to the nurse to get that nose checked out. Then Jacob

ran as fast as he could to find Anastasia. When he had gone three blocks, he heard crying behind

a tree. Jacob walked over to the tree to see Anastasia crying so hard that there were actually little

puddles on the ground.

Anastasia I Jacob started saying before Anastasia cut him off

I bet you want ring back and you probably dont wanna be my boyfriend anymore

Anastasia said sniffling

Why wouldnt I want to be the boyfriend of someone as pretty as you Jacob leaned inand kissed Anastasia. Soon the kiss deepened with passion; Anastasia was the first to break away

Jacob we need to get to school Anastasia said looking at the watch on her wrist

Yeah probably should Jacob said not really wanting to leave

I heard AJ yell at you, what did you do? Anastasia asked

Punched Joel in the nose and gave him a broken bloody nose Jacob and Anastasia

laughed at Jacobs comment.

Wait, why did you punch him in the first place? Anastasia asked confused

Because he called you trash and I cant have someone calling my girlfriend trash Jacob

said sending Anastasia as smile

Thank you I have to go Anastasia said turning to leave

Ok Ill talk to you later Jacob said leaning in to give Anastasia a kiss

Ill see you tonight at 6 Anastasia said moving away so Jacob couldnt kiss her

Ok see you then Anastasia walked off before Jacob could give her a kiss.

Chapter 5:

So how was your study date? asked Caddie when Anastasia got up to her locker.

Jacob, who did this to Anastasia?

My ex-girlfriend Olivia punched her square in the forehead because she was mad at me

hospital in the ambulance with Anastasia. When they finally got to the hospital Anastasia was put

into a room and Jacob went and called her mom.

Hello Mrs. Robertson this is Jacob.

Hello Jacob why are you calling me at work

Because Anastasia is in the hospital

What! Is she okay?

They just put her in a room she got punched by my ex-girlfriend in the head and she fell

Bye with that Jacob was on his way back to Anastasias room.

Chapter 6:

Anastasia had been unconscious for 3 weeks the doctor told Jacob that she was in a coma

and that she had a 30% chance of waking up.

Please Anastasia wake up. Please wake up dont leave me like this Jacob soon couldnt

hold back his emotions and he started crying his tears were going all over the place when he

heard a familiar voice

Where am I?

10/82

Excuse me for a moment while I go talk to my girlfriend about the baby.

Anastasia HOW COULD YOU BE PREGNANT!

I have no idea I am still a virgin

Well you cant be pregnant and be a virgin

Just let me think Anastasia sat there and thought for about 10 minutes before she finally

remembered

Flashback

Ow let me go!

Ok you little bitch you listen to me and you listen good no screaming, yelling, or crying if

you do Ill slit your neck. You can moan but thats it. Try anything tricky and youll be dead in a

second! Got it?

All Anastasia could do was nod. She completely knew what was going to happen this man was

going to rape her.

The man had hurt her so bad and she had bled really badly then too.

End Flashback

When Anastasia came back into reality, she started to cry.

Anastasia why are you crying

I finally know how I got pregnant, Anastasia said between sobs.

How?

Wait a sec doctor how many months along am I?

About 3

Thank you. Um doctor can you excuse us for a moment we need to talk aloneOf course the doctor left, Jacob, and Anastasia were left alone.

Okay Anastasia, spit it out, how did you get pregnant

Well 3 months ago in December I was walking home from the library and this guy

grabbed my arm and pulled me into an alley way

So you mean

Yes I was raped that night I didnt tell anybody because I was too ashamed. Anastasia

suddenly felt Jacob's strong arms around her and she started to cry.

What are we going to do I cant take care of a baby. Im only in middle school

We could always get an abortion

I guess but abortions are expensive

Dont worry about it Im rich remember

Ok

Anastasia Im about to tell you something that I mean with all my heart

Jacob what is it

I love you Anastasia's eyes filled with tears then she said

I love you too

Chapter 7:

About 5 minutes later Anastasia fell asleep into a dream about her and Jacob raising a baby

and were married. Anastasia awoke to find Jacob asleep holding her hand. Anastasia squeezed

Jacobs hand.

Anastasia?Hey sleepyhead

Just now

Ill be right back Im going to go ask the doctor when you can be released from here

Ok dont take too long

DOCTOR! DOCTOR!

Hello Mr. Michaels how can I help you?

I was wondering when, Anastasia can leave the hospital

Lets see; she should be ready to leave this afternoonThank you doctor

No problem Mr. Michaels. Jacob ran off to tell Anastasia the good news.

Anastasia the doctor said that you could leave this afternoon

Anastasia? Jacob walked in to see Anastasia had a cut on her wrist from what looked like

a very sharp knife. Jacob ran to the nurses station

Nurse! Nurse! Anastasia Robertson is bleeding badly from her wrist it looks like someone

cut her with a knife

Oh my god we have to hurry. Take these and try to stop the bleeding Jacob ran off with

medical cloths to stop the bleeding. When Jacob came in, he found a note on the table next to the

bed

Dear Jacob,Tis is no mere incident. Take a guess at who didis. I hope is litlefiend dies. I heardaboute baby. Now I know she is more an just afiend. Geez Jacob if you werent wiling go is far in our relaonship en why did you inis one. I slwilbe back for revenge.

Olivia

Shit not again. Soon the doctors and nurses were piling in trying to get Anastasia

stabilized.

Please Anastasia dont die on me Jacob started crying again and couldnt stop.

Anastasia's breathing was slow until one tear hit Anastasia's mouth and her breathing became


12/82

normal. The bleeding wasnt stopping then when another one of the tears hit the cut and the

bleeding stopped.

Jacob?

Anastasia? Youre alive

Of course Im alive

Anastasia you really need to stop scaring me like this. This is the second time in 2 daysIts not my fault. Someone keeps doing these things to me but I dont know who they are

I do here look at these Anastasia read each of the two notes three times.

I cant believe her!

Now Anastasia, dont go overboard

HOW CAN I NOT GO OVERBOARD? I COULD JUST STRANGLE HER!

Anastasia calm down your gonna hurt yourself.

Fine but only because your so cute. So this is your ex-girlfriend

Yeah shes just mad because I broke up with her for you

Oh how sweet said a voice that Jacob knew all too well.

Olivia what are you doing here havent you done enough alreadyObviously not enough if shes not dead yet

There is nothing you can do that will break us apart because I love Anastasia and there is

nothing you can do to change that

Jacob you really mean that

Yes Anastasia I do

Oh isnt this a pretty sight

Shut up Olivia. If want to hurt Anastasia you have to go through me first

Fine Ill do that Olivia pulled out a gun from her backpack and aimed right at Jacob.

Suddenly Olivia pulled the trigger andBANG! Jacob fell to the floor with a thump. Suddenly

Anastasia screamed at the top of her lungsNO! suddenly, Anastasia's doctor and five security guards came running into Anastasia's

room. The security guards arrested Olivia and took away the gun.

Doctor, are you going to be able to help him? Anastasia asked the doctor.

He should be ok the bullet hit him in the stomach. Anastasia do you remember where the

girl was aiming?

Yes she was aiming for the heart. I guess she figured that if she couldnt have him then no

one could

Ok thanks Ill be sending in a detective. Ok?

Sure doc.

About 5 minutes after the doctor left the detective came in.

Hello Ms. Robertson I am Detective Dawson when Anastasia looked up she saw the

most beautiful blue eyes and messy blonde hair

Hello detective

Ok so Ms. Robertson

Ok so Anastasia what is the name of the attacker

Her name is Olivia I have no idea what the last name is


13/82

Ok how many attacks has she made

Shes made 3; 2 on me and 1 on my boyfriend

What exactly did she do?

She knocked me into a coma by punching me in the forehead and then she slit my wrist.

Then on my boyfriend she shot him

Do you know where Olivia lives?I have no idea but you can look it up at our middle school McCormick Junior High

Ill look into that

I was wondering is there any way that me and my boyfriend could get a restraining order

against her?

Its possible there is enough evidence. Oh by the way are there any notes or anything

Yes there is two here you go

Ok thank you Anastasia. Ill call if theres anything else I need

Alright bye detective Dawson

Bye Anastasia the detective left and then the doctor came in 20 minutes later.

Ok Anastasia you should be able to go home now. Just let me get a nurse to take the IVsout and then youll have to replace the bandages on that cut every 3 days.

Thank you doctor

Ok bye Anastasia oh by the way Jacob just got out of surgery and they got the bullet out.

But he only has a 30% chance of waking up from the coma hes in.

Thank you doctor. 2 minutes after the doctor left a nurse came in and took out

Anastasia's IVs.

Um nurse could you tell me what room Jacob Michaels is in?

Yes the room right next door

Ok thank you

Bye Anastasia.Anastasia changed into the clothes her mom had brought for her. Then walked over to Jacobs

room to see him laying there the only indication that he was alive was his chest going up and

down from his breathing. Anastasia pulled up the chair that was in the room and sat next to him

holding his hand and never letting go like he had promised her.

Jacob please wake up please dont leave me and the baby.

Chapter 8:

Anastasia sat like that for 3 months waiting for Jacob to wake up he hadnt woken up and

Anastasia was starting to lose hope. Her cut had healed 2 months ago and she was feeling better.

Anastasia was just getting ready to go home and go to sleep when she saw Jacobs eyes open.

Anastasia walked back to Jacobs bedside when he grabbed her arm.

AHHHHHHHH!!!! Anastasia ran out of the room to the nurses station

Nurse come here Jacobs awake

Ok lets go. Anastasia and the nurse got back to the room to find Jacob sitting up right in

bed and eating the food that had been placed out for him.

Oh my god you really are awake hold on a sec while I examine you. The nurse did the


14/82

examination and left.

Jacob I cant believe your awake

I know wait how long have I been out?

About 3 months and Ive been here every day hoping that you would wake up

Wow I missed a lot of school

Yeah Ive talked to all you teachers and they have excused you from all the homeworkand tests youve missed.

Thats good

Jacob there is something I have to tell you

What is it Anastasia you know you can tell me anything?

Well with all the stress of everything that has happened in the past 3 months it was just

too much stress andand Anastasia suddenly broke out crying and wouldnt stop

Shh Anastasia its ok you can tell me anything

I lost the baby! I had a miscarriage

Anastasia its ok I know about the stress of thinking that your loved one is never going to

wake up. Anastasia and Jacob talked for 3 hours about what had happened in the past 3 monthswhile Jacob was in his coma.

Wow I missed a lot

I never let go

Just like I promised you; you did the same

Well just to tell you Olivia is in jail for 3 murder attempts; so she was sentenced to 10

years in prison with possibility of parole at 8 years. We also have a restraining order against her

Wow thats great. The doctor came in to examine Jacob.

Ok Mr. Michaels your ready to leave

Right after he just woke up

Yep if he was able to sit up in bed and eat by himself without the help of you or a nurse heshould be fine

Ok so all he has to do is get his IVs taken out and he can go

Yep 5 minutes after the doctor left a nurse came in and removed Jacob's IVs. Anastasia

left the room so he could change into the clothes that his mom had brought him and he was ready

to go.

Ready Anastasia

Yep

How are we getting home?

My mom is in the waiting room. Shell take you home

Ok lets go. Jacob and Anastasia walked to the waiting room hand in hand to see Cheryl

sitting there reading a magazine.

Hey mom

Jacob you really are awake. You just woke up and theyre already releasing you?

We couldnt believe it either mom but oh well can we go home now

Sure lets go. When they got to the car Anastasia and Jacob sat in the backseat. On the

way back home Anastasia fell asleep in Jacob's arms and Jacob fell asleep soon after. Jacob

awoke suddenly by the sudden abrupt stop Jacob saw that they were in Anastasia's driveway.


15/82

Anastasia wake up were home

What oh come on Ill walk you home

Ok come on lets go. Anastasia and Jacob walked to Jacobs house where they were

greeted by Jacobs mom.

Hey you two Jacob Im so glad you woke up now get upstairs and go to sleep

Anastasia thank you so much for taking care of my Jacob for me

No problem he was there for me when I was hurt so I was there for him

Im glad he has someone as sweet and caring as you for a girlfriend. His last girlfriend

Olivia was a total snob

Pretty accurate description she was the one that caused all this trouble

Well thank god shes in jail good night Anastasia

Good night Mrs. Michaels. With that Anastasia walked home to get a well-deserved rest

knowing that Jacob was safe in his bed at home.

Chapter 9:

When Anastasia woke up the next day she was excited to go see Jacob. It was a Saturday

and they were going to spend the whole day together. Anastasia got dressed in her pink tank top

and her blue skirt that was an inch above her knees and put on her white flip flops. When

Anastasia knocked on Jacobs front door his mom answered it.

Hey Anastasia Ive got to get going Ive called Jacob to get him to wake up but he hasnt

come out of his room

Dont worry about it Ill wake him up

Ok see you later and have funBye Mrs. Michaels

Tell Jacob to make sure to lock all the doors before you guys leave

Ok bye

All right bye Jacobs mom left and Anastasia went up to Jacobs room. When she got in

the room, the room was dark except for the bit of sunshine that was shining through the blinds.

Anastasia went over and pulled the blinds up to reveal the sunshine rays that soon filled the

whole room. Jacob mumbled something that Anastasia could hardly hear

Who opened those darn blinds? Anastasia went over and gave him a kiss on the lips.

Anastasia is that you?

Who else would it be goofball?" Jacob got up out of bed only to jump right back under the

covers.

Whats wrong?

I just forgot that I sleep in boxers

Oh you take a shower and get dressed and Ill be downstairs waiting for you. Alright?

Alright now get out of here so I can take a shower

Alright. Anastasia went downstairs to the living room to wait for Jacob to get ready.

Jacob finally came down after 30 minutes.


16/82

Geez I thought girls took a long time. I have never met a boy that takes 30 minutes to get

ready

Alright stop interrogating me. I get enough of that from my mom.

Ok lets go. Were going to the beach

Ok lets go. Jacob and Anastasia walked to the beach. They spent 2 hours at the beach

playing in the sand and in the water. While they were walking back from the beach to go getlunch Jacob noticed that Anastasia didnt have the ring on that he gave her.

Hey Anastasia wheres the ring I gave you?

What I thought my finger felt empty. Now that I think about it I havent seen it since the

day I was slit on the wrist by Olivia.

Olivia must have taken it off your finger once you were unconscious.

Thats not good

Oh no I remember now that I had it engraved to say for Jacob's girlfriend if she wears

that and shows it to her friends people will start to think that shes my girlfriend again

Crap Jacob we have to see if she had that ring when she was admitted her into the prison

Well lets go get some lunch and then well take the bus down to the Juvenile HallOk. Jacob and Anastasia went to the McDonalds where they first met and had lunch then

headed to the bus station. About an hour later, they arrived at the detention hall.

Ready Anastasia

Yeah lets go.

Hello how may I help you? asked the receptionist at the front desk.

Yes wed like to see Olivia Johnson

Ok just wait over there until we get her ready well call you when were ready for you

Ok. About 15 minutes later the receptionist told them they could go in.

Lets go. When Jacob got into the visiting area, they saw Olivia waiting for them.

Hello Olivia Anastasia said.What do you two want?

We have a couple of questions for you

Alright go ahead shoot

Ok first of all why did you hurt us?

Because I was mad at you Jacob for breaking up with me I was so used to getting what I

always wanted and you were something I wanted so I guess because I thought that if I couldnt

have you then no one else could. So thats why I tried to kill her so I could have you

Ok so second question did you steal my ring that Jacob gave me?

Yes because I was jealous of you because he gave you a ring but he didnt give me one.

So when Anastasia was unconscious I took it

So where is it now?

The detention center has it youll have to ask them what they did with it

Ok thanks Olivia. We need to go but maybe well come by and see you again

Bye you two When Jacob and Anastasia left, Olivia was glad to have a weight lifted from

her shoulders.

Excuse me?

Yes can I help you again?


17/82

Maybe when our friend was admitted here she had something of mine with her I was

wondering is there any way for me get that back?

Yes all you have to do is fill out these forms stating what it is that she had and the name of

the person and return them to me and I shall retrieve it for you

Ok thank you. It took Jacob and Anastasia 15 minutes to fill out the forms and sign them.

Alright Ill be right back. The receptionist took another 15 minutes to find the ring.Ok here you go anything else I can help you with?

Nope that should be it thank you

Good bye

Bye Anastasia and Jacob said in unison.

Thank you Anastasia said.

For what?

Everything with that Anastasia leaned in to kiss Jacob. When Jacob pulled away,

Anastasia wondered why

Whats wrong?

Go on you can tell meIts nothing really everythings perfect. When Im with you nothing can go wrong

Hey Jacob

Yeah?

When are we going to tell everybody about our relationship?

We could walk to and from all our classes holding hands and when we dont have classes

when before we part to leave I could give you a kiss on the cheek

Sounds good

Lets go I have a surprise for you

Ok lets go. Jacob and Anastasia got back on the bus heading for home. When the bus

stopped at there stop Anastasia and Jacob got off and walked home. Anastasia couldnt wait toget her surprise; little did Anastasia know that her surprise was something that she wasnt going

to enjoy. Jacob headed for the park where he and Anastasia sat on one of the benches so that

Anastasia could get her surprise.

Ok ready for your surprise

Yeah

Ok here it is Jacob took a deep breath Im moving

What?! Anastasia yelled tears forming in her eyes

Im moving Im sorry. I dont want to but my mom was offered a job down in California.

So were moving there

No this cant be happening I finally get to go out with you then I find out that your

running as fast as she could without looking back. Suddenly Anastasia realized that she was at

her house. She unlocked the door and ran up to her room closed the door and started crying.

Anastasia couldnt stop crying no matter how hard she tried. Then she heard a knock and she

heard her mom

the doorbell ringing.

Yes please if its for me just send them up and have them knock

Ok honey. When Cheryl got downstairs and opened the door, she saw Jacob standing in

the doorway.

Thank you so much. Jacob practically tripped as he ran up the stairs to Anastasia's room.

Anastasia jumped at the sound of a knock on the door

Come in mom

Well Im not so sure about the mom part but Ill come in. Anastasia turned away from

the computer to see Jacob standing in the doorway of her room.

Jacob is that you

Who else would it be?

Why you are here come to break my heart more then it already is

I didnt mean to break your heart. I didnt mean to hurt youYeah right. I should have known this would happen

Come on Anastasia dont do this to me

Im so stupid

Youre not stupid

Why do you have to leave? Why cant you stay here with your dad?

Because my mom has custody of me so I cant stay with him. I could try but it probably

wont work. But for you Im willing to try anything. After that, Anastasia started crying again.

She couldnt help it the tears just started flowing. Suddenly her whole world faded around her

when Jacob leaned in and kissed her. Suddenly Anastasia jumped at the sound of a thunderclap

outside.

Oh my god what was that?

It was a thunderclap outside looks like we got a rainstorm. Then there was a knock on

the door

Come in Cheryl walked in.

Jacob your mom just called and said that youll need to stay here until this rain lets up. Its

too dark, rainy, and windy for you to go outside

Okay Mrs. Robertson


19/82

Now come downstairs you two its time for dinner

Ok coming Anastasia and Jacob said in unison. For dinner, they had chicken Parmesan

that Cheryl cooked herself.

Thanks mom dinner was great were gonna go downstairs and watch a movie

Ok have fun. Anastasia led Jacob down to the entertainment room with the big screen

TV.What do you wanna watch?

I dont know how about Titanic

Sure. Anastasia got Titanic off the movie shelf, put the DVD in the DVD player, and

started the movie. Then her and Jacob cuddled up together on the couch and watched the movie.

Half way through the movie Jacob made a comment that made Anastasia blush

You know Anastasia the characters in the movie are kind of like us if you think about it

How do you reckon that?

Because Im from the popularity group so like Id be first class and you were from the

geek group so you would be from third class and we had to go through hell and back just to be

togetherI can see where youre coming from. Just when Jack and Rose were kissing on the bow

of the ship Anastasia and Jacob started kissing too until they were interrupted by Cheryl who

brought down snacks for them.

Thanks mom

Youre welcome dear when Cheryl left Anastasia looked at the snacks she had brought

down she had given them a six pack of diet coke, a plate of fresh baked cookies, a bowl of

popcorn, and a bag of Doritos.

Wow this is quite a snack feast that my mom has given us. Im surprised my mom doesnt

usually give me snacks this late at night I wonder whats up

Oh forget about it lets enjoy this unusual treat.Youre right. Anastasia fell asleep on Jacobs shoulder during the rest of the movie when

the movie was over he carried her to her room and laid her down on the bed and pulled the

covers over her. Anastasia stirred a bit in her sleep but didnt wake up. Jacob went downstairs to

find Cheryl sitting in the living room watching TV when she heard Jacob enter the room.

Oh Jacob you scared me is your guys movie over

Yeah Anastasia fell asleep so I took her up to her room and put her in her bed so shes

upstairs asleep

Good she needs a good nights sleep

Hey Mrs. Robertson can I ask you a question

Go ahead Jacob

What was with all the sweets while we were watching the movie? Anastasia said you

dont usually let her have sweets this late

Well I was hoping to tell you both together when your movie was over but since

Anastasia's asleep I can tell you both in the morning

You can tell me I can keep a secret

Alright I was going to wait but I guess I could tell you. When you mom called we talked

about you and Anastasia's relationship and your mom realized that she didnt want to break you


20/82

two up because we can both see how much you both care about each other. So your mom and

decided that it would be unfair to split you two up. So we decided that you can stay here with me

and Anastasia as long as your relationship doesnt interfere with your school work you have to

keep a C average in your grades or else you have to go down to California to live with your

mom

Youre kidding rightNope but do we have an agreement

Yes totally and completely

Ok now go to bed its late youre staying in the guest room right next door to Anastasia's

room.

Ok thank you so much. Jacob ran upstairs to the room he was staying in he was so

excited for what was going to happen in his and Anastasia's relationship. Jacob fell asleep that

night dreaming of Anastasia and Anastasia fell asleep dreaming about Jacob. They both knew

that nothing could break them apart.

Chapter 10:

Jacob this cant be happening we finally get to be together said Anastasia as they were

packing all of Jacob's things that he would need over at Anastasia's house.

I know its like fate brought us together

I know. They finally finished packing all of Jacobs stuff and moving it all into his room

at Anastasia's at 4 oclock.

All moved in next thing to do is unpack everything first lets unpack my clothes. Because

you and I are going out tonight, Jacob said

What youve got to be kidding me

Nope now help me get my clothes out of these boxes so I can find something to wear outtonight then you can go and change into something different for tonight. I had your mom rent us

a limo. When they finished unpacking his clothes Anastasia went into her room then into her

walk-in closet that was huge. It took Anastasia an hour to get ready. Jacob waited downstairs for

Anastasia to finish up. Jacob finally heard a door close and he went in the entryway to see

walking down the stairs in a beautiful white strapless dress with flowers on it.

You look, uh, uh

Take your time itll come to you

Bye Anastasia, be safe. Anastasia heard her mom say as she closed the door. Jacob and

Anastasia got into the limo and headed for their destination.

So Jacob where are we going

We are going to the hottest teen club in town

Oh my god this cant be happening. When they got to the club, someone opened the door

and Anastasia stepped out to see camera flashes then questions when Jacob got out of the limo.

Anastasia didnt realize how famous Jacob and his family are. When they got to the front door,

the guy didnt even have to ask his name because he already knew whom he was. When Jacob

and Anastasia got in the club, the music was so loud that you could hardly hear yourself think.

HEY YOU WANT A SODA?


21/82

SURE ILL HAVE A DIET COKE

OK ILL BE RIGHT BACK. It took Jacob 10 minutes to get back with their drinks.

THANKS

NO PROBLEM. When Anastasia finished her soda Jacob asked her if she wanted to

dance.

HEY YOU WANNA DANCE?SURE. When they got on the dance floor the song Girlfriendby N*Sync Anastasia knew

this was a sign that her and Jacob were meant to be together. After that, song was over a song

played that Anastasia and Jacob both knew would be their songBreaking Free by Zac Efron and

Vanessa Hudgens. They both could relate to this song. Anastasia and Jacob left the club at about

10:30 and called the limo to pick them up.

Jacob this night was great; nothing could ruin this night

Not as long as youre here. Soon they came to a stop they were home.

Good night Jacob. I love you

I love you too

I need to go instant message Caddie. Good night Jacob. With that, Anastasia's doorclosed behind her.

Chapter 11:

Dreamgurl868: Hey Caddie. You there

CBRules: Hey there girlie. How have things been between you and Jacob I havent heard from

Dreamgurl868: Pretty good hes living with us now because his mom was going to move to

CaddieGirl888: Oh, guess who asked me out while you were gone

Dreamgurl868: who

CaddieGirl888: Jacobs best friend AJ

Dreamgurl868: you have to be kidding

CaddieGirl888: Nope so, I invited him to go to the mall with us and he said he would go but only

if you brought Jacob with you

Dreamgurl868: ok hold on a sec let me see if hes awake and Ill ask him

Anastasia left her computer to go check and see if Jacob was awake. When she opened the door

to his room, he was watching TV.

Hey Jacob. Do you wanna go to the mall with me and Caddie?

Oh do I have to said Jacob whining like a 5 year-old.


22/82

AJ will be there

Why is AJ going to be there?

Because he asked Caddie out so she asked he if hed like to go and he said hed go but

only if you were there. Please Anastasia said giving him the puppy dog eyes.

Oh how could I say no to that face? Alright. Anastasia ran back to her room and

messaged Caddie again

Dreamgurl868: ok he said yes after I gave him the puppy dog eyes

CaddieGirl888: ok see you at the mall

Dreamgurl868: ok bye

Just as Anastasia was about to log out she got a weird instant message it said:

Anonymous123: My dear I have been watching you and I consider myself disappointed. I know

you can do better. Ive seen you kissing him and it fills me with rage. You had better watch him

with a close eye because I could be lingering around any corner when youre out in public.

Just when Anastasia was going to reply to the person, they logged off. Anastasia got scared so

she printed out the message and took it to Jacob.

Jacob, here look at this message I got Jacob read the message three times. Just as Jacob

was about to speak Anastasia's phone beeped. When Anastasia opened her phone, she had a text

message it said the same message

524-0000: My dear I have been watching you and I consider myself disappointed. I know you

can do better. Ive seen you kissing him and it fills me with rage. You had better watch him with a

close eye because I could be lingering around any corner when youre out in public.

When Anastasia tried to respond the phone said the number was disconnected. Just when Jacob

was going to speak, again he heard a dingdong noise come from Anastasia's room

Thats my computer. Anastasia ran to her room with Jacob following close behind.

When Anastasia got to her computer, she had e-mail. It was the same message as before

To: [email protected]

From: [email protected]

Subject: sadness

My dear I have been watching you and I consider myself disappointed. I know you can do better.

Ive seen you kissing him and it fills me with rage. You had better watch him with a close eye

because I could be lingering around any corner when youre out in public.

Jacob who could be doing this
mailto:[email protected]:[email protected]:[email protected]:[email protected]:[email protected]:[email protected]


23/82

I have no idea. Just ignore them if they keep coming

Ok. Hey Jacob can you sleep in here I dont wanna be alone

Ok come on lets go to bed its late. Anastasia fell asleep in Jacob's arms and had a

peaceful dreamless sleep.

Chapter 12:

Anastasia, Jacob, WAKE UP BREAKFAST IS READY! Anastasia and Jacob woke up to

the sound of Cheryl yelling at them.

Anastasia time to get up

Not yet mom its too early

Anastasia wake up. If you wake up Ill give you a kiss

No thanks mom

Its Jacob, not mom, now get up. With that, Jacob rolled Anastasia off the bed and onto

the floor.

Jacob what did you do that forYou wouldnt wake up

I was just joking around with you. I heard every word you said. Now come over here and

give me a kiss like you said

Fine. Just as Jacob was about to kiss Anastasia her mom walked in.

Anastasia get down here Neils waiting for you

Oh my god I totally forgot Neil was coming over today. Come Jacob go get dressed so we

can have breakfast with Neil. Cheryl left the room and Anastasia told Jacob whom Neil was.

Whos Neil? Jacob asked.

Neil is my cousin who lives in Issaquah I guess I forgot to tell you

Thanks for keeping me in the loop Jacob said sarcasticallyNow go get dressed Neil has been waiting to meet you

Why does he want to meet me?

He wants to meet the boy who stole my heart. Now go get dressed

Alright Im going. When Jacob left Anastasia closed and locked, her door then went to

her closet to pick out an outfit to wear. Anastasia couldnt decide what to wear so she decided to

call Caddie.

Hey Caddie you can come over here to my house I need your help

Fine Ill be there in a few minutes. Caddie arrived about 5 minutes later to help Anastasia

pick out an outfit.

Hey Anastasia can I come in Anastasia went over and unlocked her door and let Caddie

in then she closed and locked the door again.

Ok I need something thats cute and revealing enough for Jacob but not too revealing for

Neil

How about your blue and white halter top and a pair of jean shorts.

Caddie you always know what to pick. That is the perfect outfit. Oh by the way Neil is

going to be coming with us to the mall

Thats fine he can hang out with Jacob and AJ while you and I go shopping


24/82

Hey Neil needs someone to go with

Why dont we invite Gerry?

No way Gerry hates Neil

Ok then how about that seventh grader that he used to date Shanae?

Perfect. Lets call her now. Anastasia picked up her phone and called Shanae.

Hey Shanae its AnastasiaOh hey Anastasia whats up?

Do you wanna go with me and Caddie to the mall?

Sure

Good be at my house in 1 hour

Ok see you then Anastasia bye

Bye Shanae.

Yay maybe Neil can finally be happy

Yeah listen I gotta go home and get ready for our triple date

Ok bye Caddie. Anastasia walked downstairs with Caddie and said good-bye then went

into the dining room to see Jacob and Neil waiting for her.I was wondering what was taking you so long Anastasia, Neil said.

You know us girls we like to take our time getting ready

Ok so lets eat Anastasia can you pass the eggs?

Oh by the way Neil you are coming with me and my friends to mall today and I wont

take no for an answer

Fine Anastasia no need to cause an argument Neil said jokingly

Good and we, me and Caddie, have set up a blind date for you

Oh no Anastasia you didnt need to do that Neil said looking slightly scared, he did have

every right to be though since the last blind date Caddie and I set him up on ended up in disaster

Oh trust me you're gonna thank me for this someday. Youll be hanging around with Jacoband his friend AJ while we girls go do some shopping

Anastasia dont you have enough clothes already? Jacob asked.

A girl can never have too many clothes. Plus Im getting something else but thats a

surprise because guess what today is

What?

Our 4 month anniversary

Really wow time sure flies.

Chapter 13:

An hour later Anastasia, Jacob, and Neil were sitting in the living room waiting for

everyone to get there when Anastasia heard the doorbell ring.

Thats either Caddie and AJ or Neils blind date. Anastasia ran to the door and opened it

to find Shanae standing there with AJ and Caddie.

Perfect! AJ, you can go in the living room tell Jacob to have my friend close his eyes

Alright whatever you say. AJ walked into the living room where Jacob was sitting with

another guy.


25/82

Hey Jacob, Anastasia told me to tell you that her friend needs to close his eyes

Ok now Neil, close your eyes and dont open them until Anastasia says to

Ok. Out in the entry way Anastasia and Caddie were talking with Shanae.

Ok Shanae, close your eyes and dont open them until I say so

Ok. How do I know where Im going?

Caddie will guide you. With that, Anastasia and Caddie guided Shanae into the livingroom where Jacob and AJ had Neil standing up.

Ok you guys open your eyes. After Anastasia said that Neil ran up and hugged Shanae.

Oh my god Shanae I thought that Id never see you again

Why are you here? Did you move back?

No I didnt move back Im just here for the day. So lets make the best of it

Come on lets go. With that Anastasia, Jacob, AJ, Caddie, Neil, and Shanae left for the

mall on the bus. Once they got there they decided to split up, the boys went to the arcade, and the

girls hit the GAP. They decided they would meet in the food court in 1 hour.

So Shanae did you like the surprise we got you

I dont think I can thank you two enough after Neil moved we kind of lost contactWell there is no need to thank us Im just glad that Neils happy again

Thats good has he been really depressed since he left?

Yes he has missed you so much. Now come on lets go pay for our stuff then head over to

the sports store so I can pick out Jacobs anniversary present. When they left the store;

Anastasia had bought three dresses, two skirts, 3 pairs of shoes, and two new shirts. Caddie had

bought four pair of jeans, and two new pairs of shoes, and five new shirts. Shanae had bought

five new dresses, 2 pairs of shoes and sunglasses. Then they headed across the mall to the sports

store.

Hello ladies, how can I help you? asked the clerk.

Yes my boyfriend is a huge sports fan and our anniversary is today so I need a giftOk may I recommend a baseball bat signed by the whole mariner team?

Thats perfect Ill take it. Can I get a special case for it too?

Sure. With that the clerk rang them up and they paid for the purchase and left to meet the

guys at the food court.

Chapter 14:

So Jacob. How long have you and my cousin been going out?

You heard this morning weve been together for 4 months and let me tell you weve been

through hell and back just to be together

What has happened to you?

Well lets see weve both been attacked by my psycho ex-girlfriend

What did your ex-girlfriend do to you guys?

Well she knocked Anastasia into a coma by punching her in the forehead and then while

Anastasia was in the hospital she came back snuck into Anastasia's room and slit her wrist. Then

when Anastasia woke up from yet another coma. Olivia, my ex-girlfriend came back, she shot

me in the stomach, and then I was in a coma for 3 months. Then my mother told me that we were


26/82

moving but then our relationship was saved by Cheryl letting me live with them in their house

Wow at first I thought that you were just using her but now that I know what you guys

have been through I know now that you really are a great guy

Thanks Neil

Hey Neil and Jacob we better get going we have to meet the girls in 10 minutes

Ok lets go.

Chapter 15:

Hey Boys the three girls said in unison.

We were wondering what was taking you guys so long

Well were here now.

HEY Jacob!

Oh no Jacob said as someone ran towards them.

Jacob who is that?

That is my sisterHey Jacob what are you doing here

Hanging out with my friends Andy

Well are you going to introduce me?

Sure thats Anastasia my girlfriend, thats AJ, thats Caddie, thats Neil, and thats Shanae

Hi everybody

Hi

So Jacob how have you been. I havent seen you since last Christmas

Ive been good Im surprised mom hasnt called you

Well you know mom she can be forgetful

Well shes not even here shes down in CaliforniaWell then why arent you with her

Because she let me stay here so I could be with Anastasia. So now I live at Anastasia's

house

Oh well Anastasia I hope my baby brother hasnt been too much trouble for you

No not really he can be a pain sometimes but most of the time hes pretty well behaved

Well thats good. Well I have to get back to work bye guys

Bye. After Andy, left Anastasia started asking questions.

Jacob you didnt tell me you had a sister

I didnt want to. Listen I didnt mention her because I wasnt allowed to she was rather

banished you could say from the family. We only see her on the holidays

Why was she banished from your family?

Because when she was 16 she got pregnant with a baby and then ran off with the guy that

got her pregnant and got married. When she returned home my mom had packed all of my

sisters stuff and my mom told her she wasnt welcome in her house anymore

Wow Jacob Im so sorry that must have been horrible for you

Yeah we were best friends and then everything changed

Well come on lets get home mom is probably freaking out right now because were not


27/82

home yet and its after 5:30.

Alright lets go. They left the mall in silence and then rode home in silence. When they

go to their stop, they all went their separate ways. Except for Anastasia, Jacob, and Neil.

Mom were home

Ok come on Neil we need to get you home

Ok bye AnastasiaBye Jacob

Bye Neil. Cheryl and Neil left after that. Then Anastasia heard Jacob go upstairs then

when he got upstairs he disappeared into his room. Anastasia ran upstairs then knocked on his

door.

Jacob can I come in When there was no answer, Anastasia just walked in to find Jacob

sitting on the bed crying. Anastasia went over to the bed and sat down then put her arms around

Jacob and let him cry on her shoulder. They sat like that for an hour before Jacob finally stopped

crying.

Jacob why were you crying?

My sister. Seeing her there at the mall it made me realize, what she put me through when Iwas 8 and I dont want that to happen I dont want to see her and then have her leave again.

Jacob you dont have to see her again if you dont want to

Thanks Anastasia you always know how to make me feel better

No problem. Here this will make you feel even better Anastasia leaned over and kissed

Jacob.

Oh hold on a sec let me go get your anniversary present

You didnt have to get me anything

I wanted to. Ill be right back Anastasia ran downstairs to get the bag with Jacob's

present. Then she ran upstairs.

Here you go. Go on open itOk. Jacob ripped off all the tissue paper and pulled out the baseball bat.

Oh my god Anastasia this is the best gift anyone has ever given me. Thank you

Your welcome. Now wheres my present

Your present is coming later

What do you mean?

Its coming later. Now lets go swimming.

Ok let me go change. Anastasia ran into her room only to here her comp beep. Anastasia

sat down at the computer to see what it was another instant message.

Anonymous678: My love I saw you at the mall and I must confess myself disappointed in you.

Why do you keep doing this to me? You need to leave Jacob for me. I could have killed him today

too if he didnt have his friends with him. Your relationship will be ended soon.

Chapter 16:

Jacob, get in here

What Anastasia. Why arent you in your bathing suit?


28/82

Because of this Anastasia showed Jacob the message.

Not another one. Well Ill have to watch my back and make sure someone is with both of

us at all times

Ok now wait while I put my suit on but you have to get out of the room. Jacob left the

room and Anastasia put on her pink and white bikini.

Ready to go swimming. Jacob turned around to see Anastasia in the most beautifulbikini.

Jacob hello anybody there

What oh sorry

Its ok. Lets go swimming

Ok. They went out in the back yard and set their stuff down on the deck chairs. Then

Anastasia was the first one to jump in.

come on the water isnt cold its a heated pool. With that said, Jacob jumped in.

Your right the water is warm it feels good

Hey I bet I can hold my breath longer than you can

I bet you cantOk on the count of 3. 1. 2. 3. Go. Anastasia and Jacob plunged beneath the surface.

Anastasia was counting in her head the seconds. One2345678910

finally, Anastasia had to breathe so she went to the surface.

Ok Jacob you can come up now Jacob didnt come up to the surface.

Ok Jacob quit playing games when Anastasia didnt hear anything she went back

underwater. She saw Jacob slowly floating to the top. Anastasia swam up to the surface then

pulled Jacob up onto the poolside then started to do CPR.

Come on Jacob. It took Anastasia 5 minutes before Jacob finally spit out the water and

started breathing again.

Jacob you scared me half to deathIm sorry. Someone tied me to the ladder I tried to cut it but I couldnt then I finally got

the knot untied then everything went black.

It took me 5 minutes of CPR to get you breathing

Well Ill try not to scare you again. We need to quit doing this to each other

We should really try I dont want to lose you

Never let go

Ill never let go. With that Anastasia and Jacob went over got their towels dried off went

upstairs to get on some clothes on. Then they went downstairs and watched movies.

What movie do you want to watch?

How about Lion King 1 .

Ok. Anastasia put in the movie and her and Jacob sat together on the couch and watched

the movie. They were interrupted by the sound of the front door closing.

Anastasia! Jacob! WHERE ARE YOU GUYS? Cheryl yelled from upstairs.

DOWN HERE MOM Anastasia yelled from downstairs. Anastasia and Jacob heard

Cheryl coming down the stairs.

What ya guys doin

Oh all right. Anastasia and Jacob actually made it through the movie with neither of them

Ok just let me turn everything off then we can go upstairs

Ok I have an idea. Pretend to be asleep and Ill carry you upstairs that way itll look like

You can such a Mr. Evil you know that

Yeah I know. Now lie down on the couch so I can pick you up and carry you upstairs

Ok

Now close your eyes and look like youre asleep. Jacob carried Anastasia upstairs

without any questions from her mom. When Jacob got into Anastasia's room, he closed the door

and locked it then set Anastasia down.

Perfect job Anastasia you should be an actress

Ok come on Anastasia pulled Jacob over to her bed and they sat down.

Anastasia are youre sure you wanna do thisYes. With that, Anastasia and Jacob sat on her bed for 2 hours and made-out.

Jacob we should go to sleep. Its after 10:30 and we have school tomorrow and with both

of us having been gone so long we need to go

Oh alright. But can I sleep in here with you please

Fine but go get ready for bed. Ill be in my closet if you need me

Ok he gave Anastasia one final kiss and then went to his room to change into a pair of

shorts and a tank top because it was so hot.

Hey Anastasia you almost ready. Just as Jacob said that Anastasia came out of her closet

in a silk nightgown that was 2 inches above her knees and showed a little too much cleavage.

You look beautiful

Thank you Anastasia said

And you look handsome as ever she added

Why Mr. Jacob I think you are blushing

What oh sorry your just so beautiful

Come on lets get to sleep we have a long day tomorrow

Oh all right if we have to. Anastasia and Jacob fell asleep in each others arms.


30/82

Chapter 16:

Anastasia and Jacob woke up to the sound of Cheryl singing in the shower.

Oh is that your mom singing?

Yep. Come on get up we have to get ready to go to school.

Ok but only because you asked. Anastasia walked over to her closet to pick outsomething to wear.

Anastasia are you almost ready

Yeah hold on. What to wear what to wear, Oh, I know the blue and white striped

spaghetti strap dress. Now what to do with my hair, Oh, Ill wear my hair as Ashley Tisdale did

in her number in High School Musical. So Anastasia put her hair up in a ponytail then clipped it

to the rest of her hair. When Anastasia was ready, she opened the door to her room quietly. But

apparently not quietly enough because Jacob turned around to see his beautiful girlfriend

walking down the stairs

Ready? But all Jacob could do was stare.

Jacob hello anybody in that head of yoursWhat oh yeah lets go? Anastasia and Jacob were walking down the street when they

heard their names being called. They turned around to see AJ and Caddie running up to them or

at least Caddie was trying to in her heels.

Hey guys. Anastasia and Jacob said in unison.

Oh my god Anastasia you look gorgeous

Thanks Caddie. So do you.

Come on lets get to school. But just as they were turning to leave Jacob noticed Joel and

his gooneys coming up to them.

Hey everybody look its the two traitors. But before Jacob could say anything Anastasia

beat him to it.Shut up Joel. You deserved what you got 4 months ago

Yeah right. Just like Olivia deserved to go to Juvie.

She did she almost killed both Anastasia and me

Yeah Joel, Jacob and me are only traitors in your eyes because were going out with

people outside our clique AJ said squeezing Caddies hand

Well AJ you could have stayed but you had to go off and be just like Jacob here. Just

because he ran off with school trash doesnt mean you had to run off with the other one. Right

when Jacob and AJ were about to punch Joel two fists beat them to it. Anastasia and Caddie had

given him a bloody lip and a bloody nose.

Well what does it feel like to be beaten up by two girls Joel? But before he could answer

the four friends were already walking off to school. When they got into the main hall everything

went silent. Everybody knew what was going on.

Ok so whats our first class?

The four of us have Spanish with Mr. Rodriguez.

Alright lets go. They sat through Spanish watching the Spanish version of some movie

from the 80s.

Well that was enjoyable, said Anastasia as they left the classroom.


31/82

Ok what do we have next Anastasia?

Well you and I have sculpture and AJ and Caddie have band.

Ok. When do we see them again?

Next period we have science together

Ok bye guys see you later. Anastasia and Jacob sat together in sculpture while they

listened to a boring lecture and watched a boring movie on Alexander Calder.Yet another boring class period

Come on lets go meet up with AJ and Caddie. With that Anastasia and Jacob ran off to

find Caddie and AJ.

Hey Jacob, Anastasia. Ready for science

Yeah I wonder what Mr. Williams has planned for us. When they walked into science

they saw that the lab stations were set up which meant they were going to do one of Mr. Williams

crazy experiments.

Wow that has been one of the best class periods so far

Yeah whats next lets see AJ and me have math and you and Caddie have social studies.

No wait woops wrong schedule we all have math together; sorryOff to math" When they got to math they had a sub and they all were scared of her it was

Mrs. ONeal.

Oh look its the happy couple, Mrs. ONeal pointed to Jacob and Anastasia.

You; Anastasia over there next to Josh.

What why?

Because I want no holding hands or playing footsie, so move now. Before I give you a

detention. Before Mrs. ONeal could say another word Anastasia had moved. The whole class

period Anastasia was uncomfortable because Josh kept trying to hold her hand. When class was

over Anastasia was the first person to leave the classroom. Anastasia waited for Jacob to come

out of the classroom but it looked like he was talking with Mrs. ONeal.Hey Anastasia.

What do you want Josh?

I was wondering if I could take you out Saturday night

Why are you even asking you know Im going out with Jacob?

Yeah well I just saw him in the classroom flirting with another girl

Hey Josh you do know I can see him in the window right there talking with Mrs. ONeal.

Fine stay with that jerk just dont come crying to me when he breaks up with you for

another girl

He wont do that I know Jacob and he wouldnt do that

Fine my love. Ill leave you but I am always watching you

Wait did you just say my love. YOU JERK IT WAS YOU SENDING ALL THOSE

MESSAGES. I CANT BELIEVE YOU

Shush now Anastasia you dont want to cause a scene

Wait you were the one who raped me 7 months ago

Guilty again

Then you know you got me pregnant with your child

That cant be possible. But you do know that once Jacob broke up with Olivia I


32/82

immediately went to her and helped her try and kill Jacob. She wasnt supposed to kill you

Hey Anastasia she heard Jacob say. When Jacob spoke Anastasia ran off crying.

Josh I should have known

Well I shall be leaving now

Im not done with you yet

Yes well Im done with you. Ill be back for Anastasia later. Right after Josh left Caddieand AJ came up to Jacob.

Caddie I need you to go and see how Anastasia is doing. AJ go and tell Mrs. Thompson

what happened and then tell her that Im in the principals office. Everyone split up and did as

Jacob said. When Jacob got to the principals office he knocked on the door.

Um Mr. Addison can I talk to you?

Sure Jacob come in and take a seat. What do you need to talk about?

Well its about a boy named Josh Anderson

Yes one of the Honor Roll Students

Yes well any way. After 4th period while I was talking to Mrs. ONeal. Josh confronted my

girlfriend Anastasia RobertsonYes another Honor Roll Student

Yes anyway well youve probably heard about all the things that have happened to us the

past 4 months

Yes but I thought it was Olivia Johnson did all that

Yes she did but Josh was the one helping her along the way and he confessed to raping

Anastasia 7 months ago

That cant be possible Josh is one of the best students here at McCormick Junior High.

Ok but look at these messages that Anastasia has been getting for the past few months.

What has Josh got to do with these they look like a bunch of notes sent by a secret

admirerYes but if you look at them carefully they are kind of threat notes some of them. And Josh

also confessed to those too.

Well Im not sure what you want me to do

I want you to suspend him. Hes a danger to me and Anastasia and you dont want the

news to hear that our school is putting its students in the line of danger

Alright. Ill have to think about it and I should have my answer by the last period of the

day.

Ok thank you Mr. Addison

Anastasia are you in here? After Caddie said that she heard crying in the second stall.

Caddie walked up to the stall and opened the door to find Anastasia crying.

Anastasia come on lets go to the counselor

Alright lets go. When Caddie knocked on the door the heard a womens voice behind

the door

Come in.

Hello Mrs. Peters. I think my friend needs someone to talk to

Well Im not sure what you want me to doI would like you to help convince the principal to suspend Josh immediately.

Alright

Good bye Anastasia. Just as Anastasia and Caddie were leaving the office they ran into

none other than Josh.

So now Anastasia and Caddie are in Mrs. Peters office and Jacob is in Mr. Addisons

Josh what are you doing here havent you caused enough trouble as it is asked Caddie.

When I heard Anastasia was crying in the counselors office I came to find her so I could

apologize

walk away Josh grabbed Anastasia's arm before she could go anywhere.

Ow! Let go your hurting me

I will never in a million years accept your apology

Fine be that way then I wont let go of your arm.

Hello Jacob

Josh why cant you just leave us alone

I wont leave her alone until she tells me where my kid is. She says I got her pregnant

when I raped her 7 months ago. So if your 7 months pregnant then why arent you showing

Because the baby died. You and Olivia caused her so much stress that she had a

miscarriageSo my kid is dead

Yes and Im glad who would ever want to have a kid with you

How dare you say that?

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!! LET GO OF MY ARM!!!!

Ill let go of your arm when I want to

Or how about you let go now. Jacob punched Josh in the stomach and he fell to the floor

holding his stomach.

Anastasia are you ok?

I cant move my arm

Come on lets get you to the nurse. Jacob took Anastasia to the nurse so she could haveher arm checked out.

Mrs. Norman?

Oh hello Jacob and Anastasia whats wrong?

Its her arm she cant move it

What happened?

Josh Anderson grabbed my arm then when he got really mad he squeezed my arm real

hard and now I cant move it

Well it looks like you have some nerve damage. Well have to put it in a sling to keep you

from moving it. Can you move your hand?

I think soWell it looks like you have movement of your hand. What about your arm can you move

it?

I bet I can

Well I bet your right. It looks like the only thing you dont have movement of is your

upper arm. Let me go get that sling.

Well Anastasia it looks like you are going to be ok. Mrs. Norman came out and put the

sling on Anastasia.

Ok Ms. Robertson your free to go to class. Jacob, Anastasia, and Caddie walked the halls

in silence not really knowing what to say.

Hello Mrs. Thompson

Hello Jacob, Anastasia, and Caddie. Were doing silent reading so take out your book and

start reading. Right when they got in their seats the bell rang

So um Anastasia what is our next class.

Ok wait in the living room while I go get something on. When Anastasia got up to her

room she heard crying coming from inside. When she opened her door she saw Jacob lying on

They walked into the entryway to see Anastasia walking down the stairs in a beautiful whiteblouse with a pink sweater over it and jeans with sparkle flowers at the rim of the pant legs and

she had her white tennis shoes.

Wow Josh and Jacob said in unison.

and saw that Anastasia had put the ring he had bought her in his hand.
