Taming Of The TOMBOY!!!!

Chapter 6

Jack parked his car in front of his house and got out of it. He then opened the door for his new bride and reached for her hand. Jenny slapped away his hand and got out from the car. Jack gave her a crooked smile and said "What? Don't want to hold your dear husband's hand wifey? How unromantic of you!"

"Be grateful that your hand is not broken!" Jenny replied with a fake smile and then yelled: "now shut up and let's get into your damn house."

"Whatever you say my dear wifey" Jack said and picked her up in his arms and then started walking toward the door.

"What the heck do you think you are doing?" Jenny screamed.

"What? I am doing what you told me to do. I am getting us into the house" Jack said with an innocent face.

"Don't you dare to be smart with me. Put me down. Put me down right now!"

"Naaah," Jack said tightening his grip on Jenny and continued walking.

"Put me down!!!" Jenny screamed her lunges. Jack didn't even flinch.

"JACK COOPER!!! IF YOU DON'T PUT ME DOWN RIGHT NOW THEN I WILL GRAB YOUR NECK AND CHOKE YOU TO DEATH!!!"

"Feel free to do whatever you want to do", Jack said reaching the door "But I won't put you down until I want to." And then he changed Jenny's position and put her onto his shoulder and held her with his one hand. He then opened the door with his other hand and entered the house and then kicked the door shut. He then walked near the sofa and put her down on it. " So Mrs. Cooper", Jack grinned at her " welcome to your new house."

Jenny smiled at him and stood on the sofa and got near him. Jack smiled back at her. Jenny got more and more near to Jack and then finally stopped, their nose nearly touching. Jack stood their frozen shocked by Jenny's action. Jenny then put both of her arms around his neck and got more near to him. Jack caught his breath, his heart was beating faster. And then ...and then she.... she kicked on his foot as hard as she could.

"Ouch" Jack flinched in pain.

"That was for kissing me in the church and that..." she said kicking on his another foot "was for picking me up in your arms against my will! Now you listen to me very carefully. Don't you ever again try to FORCE anything into me! If you do then you will be sorry I swear you will!" she said and then turned from him. But Jack grabbed her hand and pulled her near him and smiled, "Well that's too bad because I'm going to pick you up again in my arms against your will. Actually, I'm going to do it right now!" He said and picked her up in his arms and then headed for the stairs.

"Where are you going?" she asked struggling to break free and punching him on his shoulder.

"In our bedroom" Jack replied calmly.

"What!" Jenny screamed.

.............................

Jack put Jenny on the bed. By that time Jenny was red with anger and as soon as Jack put her on the bed she punched him hard in the stomach using all her strength. Jack grimaced in pain.

"Ouch, that hurt. What was that for anyway?"

"You need to ask! You know what was that for!"

"No. I don't. That's why I'm asking you. Tell me."

"Don't you dare to play innocent with me Jack Cooper!"

"I wasn't. I just asked you a question. I mean at least I should know the reason of it if someone punches on my stomach. So that next time I could avoid it." he said making an innocent face.

"You really think that you can fool me by giving me that stupid innocent expression? I mean I knew that you were a jerk but I had no idea that you were so dense! Anyway, you want me to tell you the reason right? Fine I will tell you the reason. I punched you because of your picking me up in your arms and then dragging me here in your bedroom and then putting me in your bed!"

"Ok first it's not my bedroom anymore it's OUR bedroom since we got married which I hope you remember. And second I don't see how I deserve to get punched for bringing you on our bedroom. Can you please explain to me what's wrong with that?"

"YOU KNOW WHAT'S WRONG WITH THAT!"

"No, I seriously don't. I mean it was a big day and I thought that you must be very exhausted and need rest. So I brought you into our bedroom so that you can sleep. Now tell me what's wrong with that? Wait a second! You do sleep at the night, don't you? Or did I just get married to a vampire?"

Jenny ignored his lame attempt at joking as she was surprised by his former statement. "You mean..... you mean.....you brought me in the bedroom because you thought I was tired and wanted me to rest?"

"Yeah", he shrugged, "Why? What did you think?" he asked her giving her an evil grin.

"Ah never mind that." she said blushing a little and then regaining her composure, "Anyway if you were so concerned about my comfort you didn't need to bring me here like "that". I can walk you know."

"Yeah, but you were so busy with kicking my feet and lecturing me on how I can't force you into anything and all. So I thought I would save you some time. By the way, tell me something. Are you always this violent? I mean since the moment I met you either you are giving me threats like cutting me into pieces or ripping my neck from my shoulder or grabbing my collar and yelling at me. And today? First, you slap my hand away when I reached for yours and then you kick my feet and then you knock my breath out by punching me. Are you always like this?"

"Oh trust me I'm not usually this violent. It's just you who makes me want to kill. Even your thoughts are enough to make me violent."

"Oh really? I didn't know that I affect you that much. That means i must be very special for you. Well, I must say that I'm flattered."

"Oh please. Don't you think you give yourself too much importance?" Jenny said before she yawned tiredly.

"No. What I think right now is that you are very tired and you should sleep now."

"Yeah, but I need to change first. I can't sleep wearing this," she said pointing at her wedding dress. "Where's my luggage? I need to unpack," she said tiredly.

"You won't have to worry about that. All of your things are unpacked and kept in their place. You will have no trouble finding anything you need. So you can go ahead and change now. All of your clothes are kept in the closet."

"When? How?"

"I had our housekeeper manage everything. Do you have any more questions left?"

"Just one."

"And what's that?"

"Why are you being nice to me?"

"Because right now you are very tired. And there's no fun in fighting with a yawning jenny. Don't get used to it though. Because it's not going to last long. As soon as you are recharged we are back in fighting mood." Jack said grinning at her.

"You are impossible," Jenny said stomping toward the closet.

...................................

Jenny took shower, put on clothes and then got out of the bathroom. She saw Jack waiting near the closet. When he saw her he smiled at her and asked "Done?" She nodded and then he entered the bathroom. She got in the bed and put the cover on her. She saw the remote on the bed stand and switched the TV on. She went through several channels but none of the programs attracted her. "I really am tired", she thought to herself and switched off the TV. Just then Jack got out from the bathroom fresh from shower. Jenny tried to ignore the fact how hot he was looking. "I mean seriously. Since when I started to care about how hot a guy is?" she thought to herself and then shook her head. "I don't care how hot he is. He forced me into this marriage and now my only aim is to make his life hell. And I will do just that."

..................................

Jack pulled the cover and started to get in the bed when Jenny sat up. "What do you think you are doing?" she asked.

"Getting in bed. You are not the only one who is sleepy here."

"And who has told you that you can sleep here?"

"Well last time I checked this house and all the furniture in it are mine. So I can sleep anywhere I want."

"And last time I checked I'm your wife and you were mentioning everything in this house as "our". You also mentioned this bedroom as "our bedroom." And I won't allow you to sleep in my bed in my bedroom."

"Excuse me but if you haven't noticed I said "our bedroom" not "your bedroom". And I will sleep here whether you want it or not." he said and laid down.

"Fine! If you want to sleep here feel free. I'll go and sleep somewhere else. But there's no way in hell that we are going to sleep in the same bed." she said starting to get up from bed when jack caught his arm.

"You are going nowhere. Now come back to the bed and go to sleep peacefully and let me sleep as well."

"No!" Jenny said stubbornly crossing her hands over her chest.

Jack sighed. "Look I really didn't want to do this tonight but you leave me no choice."

"Do whatever you want but I'm not sleeping in the same bed with you!" she said stubbornly.

"Ok then. Pick any room you like but before leaving just think one thing. What will Laura feel when she will know that we slept in separate rooms on our wedding night?"

"You...you...are going to tell her that?"

"That and also the fact that you married me so that she wouldn't have to marry me.

"You can't blackmail me like this!"

"Actually I can. And I Just did."

Jenny got back into bed and laid beside him fuming.

"Why are you doing all this?" she asked him.

"Because this is just how I am," he said arrogantly. Jenny rolled onto opposite side. A tear fell from her eyes. But she wiped it quickly. "No, I'm not gonna cry. I'm a tough girl. I will never fall weak. I've always won every fight in my life. I will also win this fight. I swear I will." she thought in her mind and then closed her eyes.

Jack sighed and said inwardly "I'm doing all this only because of one reason baby. Because I love you. Love you more than my life. Love you more than anything in the world. Love you so much that it hurt. And I can't bear the thought of being away from you. Even for a little time. And I can't win your heart if you'll be away from me. I know I'm hurting you right now. But you've got no idea how much it hurts me when I hurt you. But I promise I won't hurt you long. I'm so sorry that I'm doing this to you. But if I don't force you to stay I know you will go away from my life. And I can't afford to lose you. But I promise I'll make it all up to you. I'll give you all the happiness of the world. You are everything to me. My love. My princess. My angel. You might hate me right now. But I promise you that one day you will also love me. And this will happen soon. Very soon. I will win your heart with my love. I Promise." And then he also closed his eyes.
