Chapter 5 ~ She's my girlfriend, Jamie ♡
1554 Words
Karen Turner was planning on flying to Mexico at the end of the week for another work trip.
Max was elated.
Jamie wondered if she could control her impulses.
She wanted to be firm with Max this time.
He was getting in too deep.
He was just infatuated with her because they were always alone together.
She pushed him to work more, hoping he might lose interest in her.
She knew she would be okay without him. That's what she told herself.
She was a bad liar.
Max pulled her close as he snuck into her room each night.
They had resumed their love affair once Karen had left for Mexico.
Lying in her bed, Jamie turned to Max and stroked his face.
He was exhausted from working all week.
She softly soothed him, telling him she was so proud of him for working so hard.
She knew that Karen wasn't telling him anything.
She stroked his hair until she heard him snoring.
About an hour later she had heard knock on her bedroom door. It was Aaron.
" I can't find Max, my tummy hurts!"
She heard him throwing up in the hallway.
She moved out from under Max's embrace.
"Ah sweetie, I'll be right there."
She said through the closed door.
Max woke up and said," What is it?"
Aaron heard his brother.
"Why does Max get to sleep with you?"
Jamie told him a lie, "Oh he just came in because he was sick too."
Max put on his clothing, he actually wasn't feeling very good and he ran to the bathroom and threw up.
Jamie let Aaron in and put him into her bed.
Max came back and fell in bed with his little brother.
Pretty soon Simon came up to her room as well. He had a fever.
Jamie had a feeling it would be a rough week ahead.
She wasn't feeling sick yet.
She moved to the couch and did her best to sleep.
In the morning Simon and Aaron were supposed to go to their dads house.
Jamie called Mrs.Turner. "Everyone's sick here, except me so far. What do you think about the boys staying with me , should I cancel Tim coming."
She sounded angry at the intrusion, "Tim Turner needs to experience all parts of being a dad, it's his week to have them. If they want to go, by all means let them."
Karen was drunk. She hung up the phone, saying she had to run.
Jamie had heard a male voice in the back ground, giggling.
Jamie was pissed now.
She called Tim Turner and canceled the boys scheduled time with him.
The boys needed a real mother.
She texted Karen and told her- Not cool Karen, way to put your kids first!
She pushed send.
She immediately regretted it.
She threw her phone down and went to take the boys some analgesics.
An hour later, Tim Turner showed up to see the boys.
Karen had called Tim and told him she that was letting Jamie go once she had returned from her work trip.
She said that he had needed to step up.
Mr. Turner had seen Jamie around throughout the year.
She had always looked like an uptight, well- a typical nanny.
Today, however her hair was loose, it flowed around her face.
She wore a pair of shorts and a sleeveless tank top that accented her curves.
"Jeesh, what a little hottie," he thought.
He made small talk and was trying to flirt with her.
He touched her arm, making physical contact with her.
Max had entered the room seeing his step dad making moves on Jamie.
She saw Max get mad.
His eyes were aflame.
She made a move to intercept him.
He moved around her and jumped on Tim.
"Don't you touch her!"
He pushed his step father back onto the floor.
Startled by his sudden outburst, he put his hands out in front of him and said,
"Hey now son," he continued in a soft tone, "Easy my boy."
Max said,"I ain't your boy and I'm not your son, you SOB!"
He let out years of resentment. Jamie moved away.
She saw Tim's knowing looks, he knew then that they were lovers.
He stood up and brushed off his pants.
"No wonder your mother is firing her."
Simon ran down to Jamie and squeezed her waist,"No, I won't let her fire Miss.Jamie, I won't!"
Aaron came in with tears in his eyes.
"What's going on?"
He threw up on himself.
Tim looked at his sons and moved backwards.
Jamie rushed forward to help Aaron.
Tim made an excuse to leave.
He saw that they were all in love with her.
He said," Don't worry, your secret is safe with me, I'll put in a good word for you to Karen.
Maybe she will forget she's mad at you.
Let me know when the boys are better, I'll come back."
He took off.
Max stood there with his fists clenched.
Jamie got them all to calm down and made some broth and toast.
She was up for the challenge.
She recieved a text from Karen a short while later- I was probably a little harsh on you, Tim told me you are an angel. I will try to get an earlier flight home.
Jamie didn't have time to care, she was too busy cleaning up the puke.
Towards the end of the second day, the boys had felt better.
Tim came back and picked them up.
Jamie took a deep breath and went to lay down.
She had a fever now.
Max called in to work three days in a row.
He was on the phone with his manager.
His manager had informed him that he needed to come in or get fired.
Jamie told him to go. He left for work.
She slept soundly, waking up to a rummaging noise in the garage below.
She had heard a male voice now.
She sat up quickly, feeling scared.
She stood up, feeling her legs shake, she was dizzy.
She grabbed her phone and locked herself in the small bathroom and listened.
She felt queasy and ran to throw up into the toilet.
There was a loud bang at her door.
The man yelled,"Jamie get out here now!"
She recognized that voice now. It was Sam. He was out of his mind.
"I have been watching you two love birds, I saw you together.
You chose him- a boy- over me a full grown man!"
He growled and crashed into her door again.
She was throwing up again.
She felt like she would pass out.
He busted down the door with a loud crash.
He stomped forward to her bathroom.
She heard him close now.
She felt the room spinning and everything went black, she had passed out, droping to the floor.
When she woke up, she was in her own bed.
Sam had picked her up, seeing her laying in her own vomit and realized that she was helpless now.
He had been high on drugs.
He could rape her now, she wouldn't even know.
He wanted her to want him. His anger seethed.
She slowly opened her eyes and cried out,"Max no!"
He looked at her and got angry now, she had just said his name!
He raised his fist to smack her. He moved over her.
He never saw it coming.
Max raised the baseball bat and hit him over the head with a loud crack.
Sam crumpled to the floor in a loud thump.
Max went to her now, he held Jamie, feeling her arms and legs.
" Did he...hurt you?"
He had thought the worst.
Sam moaned.
Max had called the cops on his way home.
Jamie smiled, delirious now.
The cops came and took Sam to the hospital.
Jamie had been able to tell them what had happened in whispering tones.
Max stood by, arms crossed over his chest.
They interviewed him now. "And how did you happen come upon them boy?"
Asked detective Monte Jones. Max sneered," I'm a man, sir."
He went on to explained that Jamie had texted him when she had heard the noise, she had thought it was him coming home at first.
He told her to go into the bathroom. He had told her to hide.
He left work and drove over right away.
He had called the police on the way there.
He had never felt such fear in his life.
Officer Monte asked what their relationship was. He told them, " She's my girlfriend."
Officer Monte raised his eye brows.
Lucky guy, he thought. He never had such a hot girlfriend at such a young age.
Jamie groaned. It was all over now.
The news reporters arrived hearing about a break in on their police scanners.
They sat outside filming.
After a while office Monte Jones came out, having completed his interview with Jamie and Max.
He granted chanel 5 news a brief interview.
"Well, what we know is that the assailant, the victims former boyfriend broke in and attempted to assault the female victim in the home.
The victims boyfriend arrived after she had texted him about the break in.
He saved his girls life, I can see they are very much in love."
