The orange civic pulled into a dark and barely lit parking lot. The car pulled into an empty parking space in front of the building door. The headlights beamed onto a tan stone building Jay put the car into park. He looked up at the building then over at the passenger’s side. Darcy laid there asleep. Her head was faced in Jay’s direction. Her brown slightly curled hair lay against her face. Jay reached over and pushed her hair aside. He smiled at her.

‘What are you doing Jay? She isn’t your type and you’re not her type. Don’t get hung over her.’ He looked down and then back up at Darcy. He ran his thumb over the deep cut on her face. He frowned. ‘Why would anyone do anything to someone like her? Someone needs to be there for her.’ He leaned against the door. Darcy leaned her back against her door. He took his seat belt off. He put his keys on his chain that was attached to his pants. He then put the end of the chain into his jean pocket. He turned and slowly opened his car door. Once the door was opened he slowly slid out of the car. He stood up and saw his short and stubby landlord walking up to his car. ‘Oh damn. This guy is like a leach the ones that don’t know how to go away.’ Jay turned and bent over to make sure Darcy was still asleep. Her head was in the corner of the seat and on the door. Her face was facing Jay’s side. She was so calm and peaceful. The cut on her face was shown. She seemed so normal when she was asleep. ‘She looks like an angel. She deserves more then what I have to offer her.’ Jay thought as he gently closed the car door. There was a tap on his shoulder. He jumped a little bit forgetting that the landlord had come back to collect this month’s rent. He turned around to see the fat landlord wearing the same outfit earlier today.

“Jay where is my money?” asked the fat landlord. Jay looked at the raunchy landlord. His right arm reached into his coat pocket. He felt around the inside of the pocket. He finally pulled out an envelope. He held it out at the landlord as he looked at the envelope. Then landlord looked at him with a determined face. “Is that all of it?” he asked as he took the envelope out of Jay’s hand.

“Yes, If you don’t believe me then count it out yourself.” Jay said in a little annoyed voice. ‘I haven’t ripped him off yet and he thinks that I didn’t pay him everything.’ He thought. Jay put his hands in his coat pockets. Then he leaned up against the driver door of his car.

“Who is the knockout?” the landlord asked as he leaned back and saw Darcy asleep. He stood up and began to count the money that Jay had given him. Jay leaned down and looked through the window to see Darcy. He smiled and then smirked when he looked back at the landlord. He pushed his hair back. ‘Damn that is what I keep forgetting to do is to get a haircut.’ He thought.

“That is umm well that is just Darcy.” Jay said as he looked at the ground and then leaned back against the car door. The landlord looked up and laughed. He shook his head at Jay as he put the envelope in his sweats pocket.

“What?” Jay asks looking at the laughing landlord. Jay had a confused look on his face.

“Nothing. Nothing, Jay.” The landlord said as he looked back at Darcy. “She looks underage.” He asked looking at Jay.

“She’s a friend of the family.” Jay said as he tried to stop himself from smiling. So he put a smirk on to hide his emotions. The landlord looked at Jay. He smiled. He saw pure happiness and joy in Jay’s eyes. He shook his head.

“Yeah okay Jay. Your secret is safe with me.” The landlord said as he looked around. He knew that Jay wanted more then a friendship with Darcy.

“What?” Jay pauses and then finishes, “What secret?” Jay was so confused. He looked at the smiling landlord and then at Darcy. ‘What secret? What is he talking about?’ Jay asked himself as he stared at Darcy.

“Someday you will know what I am talking about.” The landlord smiled and showed his gross golden teeth. The landlord then winked. The landlord began to walk away from Jay and the car.

“Okay?” Jay said. Once he turned away from Darcy he saw the landlord walking away. Jay walked around the front of the car to Darcy’s side. He opened the door slowly and carefully. Once the door was opened Darcy began to fall out of the car. He caught her. He moved her right arm over his shoulders. He moved her head so he could see where the seatbelt buckle was. He then undid the buckle with his left hand which he slid behind Darcy’s back. He took his right hand and moved the seatbelt to its original position. He then put his right hand underneath her thighs. He slowly and carefully pulled Darcy out of the car. He was far enough away from the car so the door could shut. Once the door was shut he walked towards the front door of the building in front of them. He walked up to the door. He opened the door, and slid into it without anything touching Darcy. The entrance light flickered on and off. He looked up and sighed. He walked over to a flight of wooden steps that led downstairs. He took one step at a time trying not to wake Darcy up. He made it down the steps and then he walked down a tiny hallway that was painted an off white color but because the lights weren’t very strong you couldn’t tell that it was an off white color.

“Jay?” Darcy mumbled quietly as she was still asleep. He looked at her and smirked.

“Sh. It’s okay. You are safe with me. Go back to sleep.” Jay whispered to her. Darcy moved her head so it was leaning against his neck. He passed a door on his left and turned around at the first door on his right. He walked over to the wall. He leaned Darcy up against the wall and had most of her weight on his leg while his right hand took his keys out. He then reached over and began to unlock his door. He opened the door to his apartment. He didn’t shut the door. He walked straight to his bedroom. The kitchen light was on so he could sort of see but it wasn’t very easy. He kicked his bedroom door open. He walked into the small room. He turned to his right and looked down at the bed to make sure nothing was in the way of her. He then set her down on the bed. He grabbed a pillow and lifted Darcy’s head. He put the pillow under her head. He went to the foot of the bed and pulled up two sheets and set them on Darcy’s hips. A tingling sensation ran up his arms and down his body. He closed his eyes and thought, ‘right now she will not forgive me if I did.’ He opened his eyes and then went back to the foot of the bed and pulled the comforter up and set it down at her neck. Darcy laid on her back fast asleep. Her hair was in her face. He smiled and then brushed her hair off her face. He bent down and then kissed her on the forehead. Darcy rolled over and lay on her left side. She pulled her hands under her face and her legs curled into her stomach. He then made sure that she was all comfortable. He walked out of the room and into the living room. He pulled the blanket that was thrown on the back of the couch down. He then walked back in his room and reached over to grab an unused pillow. He stood back up. He closed the door as he watched Darcy sleep. He walked over to the couch when he realized that the front door was still open. He walked over and softly closed the front door. He then locked the two deadbolts. He turned around and then headed for the couch. He sat down on the middle cushion and began to take his shoes off. ‘This is so unlike me. Damn there is a hot girl in my bed and I decide to play Mr. Gentleman. What happened to the real Jayson Hogart? But maybe just maybe there is some good in me after all.’ He thought. A smile grew on his face. He took his coat off after he pushed his shoes under the coffee table. He then lay down on the couch. He readjusted the pillow to where it was comfortable and then pulled the blanket over him. He laid there for a moment on his side and then turned over and faced the couch back and went to sleep.

The sun was sneaking in through the new wooden blinds. Jay’s cheek had a line of light on it. Jay moved his hand to stop his cheek from heating up. He then opened one eyes at a time. His eyes were barely open because of how bright the sun was. He sat up and rubbed his eyes. He got up walked half asleep and half awake into the tiny kitchen and started a pot of coffee.

‘It is definitely a coffee morning. What time is it?’ He thought to himself as he looked up at the microwave and saw the time 11:30 am flash across the screen. His right hand went through his hair. ‘Man I need to invest in an alarm clock. Wait a minute why was I sleeping on the couch. And why am I in yesterday’s clothes?’ He thought as he looked down at his old clothes. He then looked over at his bedroom door. He remembered everything that had happened last night. What stuck to him was the cut he saw on Darcy’s cheek. ‘Is Darcy still here?’ He walked over to the door. He carefully and quietly opened the door. Darcy was half awake and half asleep. She looked up at Jay and smiled. Her hair was a mess. She was wrapped in Jay’s sheets. Jay looked at her and smiled. ‘Damn she is so gorgeous. Who knew that Christian girls were so hot in the morning? Even with her hair a mess.’ He thought to himself. Darcy sat up and wiped her eyes. Her fingers ran across her cut. She frowned and looked down. Jay opened the door up all the way. He walked into the room. She looked up at him and gave him a half ass smile. She then crawled out of bed and walked over to Jay.

“Hey.” She said in a sleepy voice. She reached out and hugged him. He was shocked. ‘What should I do?’ He thought. But for some reason his arms wrapped around her. Darcy leaned her head against Jay’s chest. He leaned his head down so it lay on top of her head. Darcy felt his head on hers.

‘Is Jay actually being cuddly? Who knew?” She thought with a smile on her face. She pulled away and looked at Jay with her smile. He smirked back at her.

“What exactly happened last night?” Darcy asked with a look of concern on her face. Jay smiled and then looked down. Darcy began to worry. “We didn’t. I mean me and you.” She paused and took a deep breathe. “We didn’t have sex did we?” She said in one breathe.

“No,” Jay said. He put his hands on her shoulders and looked at her and shook his head. “We didn’t have sex. You asked if you could stay the night.” Darcy had her mouth opened but nothing came out. She looked around at the semi clean room. For some reason she could not look at Jay. She wasn’t sure why.

“Oh, so if I slept here, where did you sleep?” Darcy asked as she looked at the bed. ‘Is Jay an actual different person when his friends aren’t around?’ Darcy asked herself as she bit her bottom lip. Jay looked at her. Then he looked out the bedroom door in the direction of the couch.

“I slept on the couch last night.” Jay said as he let go of Darcy and started to walk towards the living room. Darcy watched him. She turned around and faced the bed. She looked down and then quickly turned around.

“Jay?” She said as he was at the doorway. He leaned back and looked at her. “Why did you sleep out there? I mean I thank you or appreciate what you did. But I didn’t think you would give up your bed for me?” She had a look of wonder and curiosity.

“Because…. I….” He looked at her. ‘Why is so hard to tell her why. Oh, duh, because I am not normally like this.’ He thought. He swallowed hard. “Because I care about you.” He said in a low and quiet voice. He looked at the ground. Darcy smiled and began to blush a little bit.

“Did you say that you care about me?” Darcy asked in a little bit of a shock. She took a step backwards and hit the bed causing her to fall on the bed.

“Yes. I care about you. I care about your thoughts and everything about you.” Jay said as he walked over to the bed. He stood there facing Darcy. She was in complete shock. She sat there looking at Jay’s feet.

“Why?” She asked him looking at the floor. “Why would you care about me?”

“Why? Why wouldn’t I? IF you must know it’s because I know how you want to help people. But everyone needs someone to help them out. And I want to be that someone.” He said as he kneeled down in front of Darcy. He looked up at her. He saw her cut. He reached out with his right hand. His right hand touched her left side of her face. He dragged his thumb across the cut. “Right now, you need someone. You need someone to talk too. Someone to protect you.” Darcy looked at him. She saw that he was telling the truth. Tears began to form in her eyes. Her left hand touched Jay’s right hand which still against her face. She closed her eyes and a few tears come down her cheeks. Jay got up and sat down next to Darcy. She leaned over to him. He wrapped her arms around her.

“Thank you, Jay. You are right thought. I do need someone to talk to.” She said as she began to cry harder. ‘Should I tell him about my mom He probably wants to know.’ She thought.

“Its okay I wont let anyone hurt you again.” Jay whispered to her. Darcy leaned her head onto his chest. He turned his head so his left side was leaning against Darcy’s head. Darcy pulled away from Jay. She looked at him. He was looking at her cut.

“You probably wan to know what is going on. Am I right?” Darcy asked Jay. Jay looked at her and then at her hands. He grabbed her hands and held them.

“IF you are ready to tell me then you can I am not going to push you.” Jay said as he looked at her eyes. Darcy looked down at their hands. A few tears fell down her cheeks and hit Jay’s hand. He let her hands go and wiped her face off. “Hey. You don’t have to tell me if you don’t feel comfortable. I am here for you Darce.” She looked up at him and then stopped crying.

“Well I guess I will start from the beginning. My parents have been together since they were in high school. But my dad wasn’t faithful. He didn’t think it matter. Well one of his playgirls got pregnant.” She took a breath.

“Let me guess, that is how I got you.” He said pushing her hair behind her ear.

“Yeah, well back to my story. My dad doesn’t believe in abortions or adoptions, so after I turned one my dad got full custody of me. The only mom that I know of has hated me or just don’t like me being around. Even though my dad has said that my real biological mom was just a fling. But my mom still thinks that if it weren’t for my real biological mom dying six months after my dad got custody of me that she would have lost my father to her.” Darcy leaned over at the table and grabbed her wallet. She pulled a picture of her dad and her mom. Her mom had Darcy’s face and body. Darcy was a complete duplicate of her mom. She gave the picture to Jay. “That is my real biological mom and my dad. It was taken about 3 months before they got pregnant with me.” Darcy looked away from the picture and at the floor. She closed her eyes. ‘I hope he doesn’t freak when I show him what my life is really like.’ She thought as she opened her eyes up. Jay looked back and forth from the picture to Darcy. He saw her breathe and close her eyes. ‘She looks so much like her mom. But I am more worried about how in the hell that cut got on her face. But she will tell me in time I hope.’ He thought looking at the picture.

“You look just like her.” Jay said as he looked from the picture to Darcy. He smiled at her. ‘I hope I can get her to lighten up some. I hate seeing her like this.’ He thought looking at Darcy who was really sad and depressed at the moment. “You have her nose.” He said as he lightly touched her nose. She looked at him and smiled lightly. ‘There is the Darcy I like to see.’ Jay thought. ‘It looks like Jay pays more attention to me then I thought.’ Darcy thought as she looked at Jay.

“You have her eyes. The same twinkle in your eye is in hers. The same brown creamy color that I love to see in your eyes is also right in this picture.” He said holding the picture up to Darcy’s eyes. She looked down and then back up. ‘He is so different. Is this an act or the real Jay?’ She thought looking at him. She began to smile as she hoped that is was all for real.

“There is the smile that lights up the room. You see.” He showed her the picture of her mom smiling. “That smile is the same one that she wears. That smile is the one that I like to see.” He said as he touched her cheek. She began to blush. ‘I am so glad that jay is here.’ She thought.

“I have to show you something. I have never showed anyone this.” She said as she turned around. She faced the wall. Jay looked at the back of her shirt. He watched her with a confused look. ‘Please tell me she is not going to ask to have sex with me. I want to but I don’t want to push her.’ Jay thought as he saw Darcy’s hands grab the bottom of her shirt. She began to pull her shirt up. Jay saw about 3 inches of her lower back.

“Umm wait. Darcy I am not asking for you to do anything you are not ready for.” Jay told her as he grabbed her arms. She turned her head and a few tears ran down her cheeks. She bites her lower lip.

“I know but there is something that you need to see and know about me.” She said as she looked at Jay. ‘Please tell me she isn’t a she-male.’ Jay thought to himself. Then he saw the cut on her face. ‘No it’s nothing like that. Come on Jay get your head in the right place.’

“It has to do with the cut on my face.” She said still looking at Jay but this time with a scared and unsure face on. Jay looked at her with a concern face.

“What is it Darcy you can tell me.” Jay said reaching out to tuck the strands of hair that were in her face behind her ear. She turned back around and slowly takes her shirt off. She did this with a bunch of pain. She let out a soft gasp of pain. Jay touched her bare back and saw a bunch of bruises and scars on it. He softly dragged his hand over a bad black and purple and blue bruise that was right underneath her bra.

“What happened? Who did this Darcy?” Jay said as he turned her around. She had tears running down her eyes. Jay reached over and hugged her. “It’s going to be alright. I promise.” Darcy wrapped her arms around his neck. ‘I hope you are right.’ She thought as she buried her face in his shoulder. He put a hand on her head. ‘I will make this right for her. I swear I will make sure whoever did this pays.’ Darcy pulled away and then looked at Jay. She wiped her eyes.

“My mom is the one that did this to me.” Darcy said as tears rolled out of her eyes. She looked up at the ceiling.

“Why?” Jay asked her as he wrapped a loose blanket around her.

“Because she said that I am nothing but trouble. That I should not even be here. But I think it’s because she sees my real mom in me and she is jealous because my mom was better then her and she will never amount to her.” Darcy said as she looked into Jay’s eyes. She sat there and then bites her lower lip. Jay looked back at her. He grabbed her face and titled her head down and kissed her on the forehead.

Awww I wanted to cryy!! Her moms a bitchh!!

wow! that was awesome! i never thought of jay and darcy being together.

thank you you guys! I really appreciatied it. I am goign to work on some more updates later during xmas break.

Darcy’s cell phone rings to “Missing You” by Tyler Hilton. Jay pulls back and leans back in his chair as Darcy gets her cell phone out of her pocket. She flipped it open and it read “HOME.” She looked back and forth from the phone to Jay. Jay saw the worry and fright on her face. He grabbed the phone and answered it. “What in the hell do you people want?” Jay said in an angry voice.

A female voice traveled through the phone. “Listen mister. I know that this is Darcy’s phone so you are going to put her on it right this second.” The voice said in a demanding voice.

“Oh really! And what are you going to do if I don’t?” Jay said trying to sound all brave but he was really just pissed off. ‘No one should be able to do this to Darcy for anyone but mostly Darcy.’ He thought as he waited for a reply. He looked over at Darcy who had the blanket wrapped around her. Her knees were pulled up and hidden under her chin and her arms that held them close to her body. Jay got up and kissed her on the top of the head. Then he walked to the living room so that he didn’t upset Darcy.

“I am her mother so God Damn it. Put her on the phone now!” the voice said as it began to get louder. Jay pulled the phone from his ear.

“Why don’t you try again? Because Darcy’s mom died so try the fuck again!” he said over the female’s voice. He began to pace around the room while he talked to her.

“I will call the cops and have you arrested.” The voice threatened. Jay laughed out loud. Darcy looked over at him. Jay saw her. He stopped and then hung the phone up. He set it down on the end table next to a couch. He began to walk back to her when her phone rang again. He rolled his eyes and then turned around.

“Damn don’t people understand what it means you someone hangs up on them?” Jay said out loud as he was about to walk over to the table to answer it again.

“Don’t.” Darcy said in a shaky voice. Jay turned around to face her. He raised an eyebrow up and looked at her with confusion. “Don’t. She isn’t worth it.” Darcy said again. But this time she said it in a more confident voice. Jay stood there. The phone continues to ring. He looked back at the phone and then at Darcy who was now standing up. The fuzzy blue blanket was still wrapped around her. She drops the blanket. It floats down to the ground. Jay watches her.

“Darcy?” He said in a low and soft voice. “What are you doing?” He said as he picked the phone up without taking his eyes off of her. She walks over to him and slide the phone out of his fingers while not taking her eyes off of his eyes. She flips the phone open. Her thumb drags over to the off button and presses it.

“I don’t want to have her bother me ever again.” She said looking up at Jay. A small but pleasing smile arose on Jay’s face. His hands softly touch her hips. She slowly tilts her head to the left side causing her hair to fall off her shoulders and over to that side.

He leans his head down to her ear and whispers, “And ummm who do you want to bother you?” He then softly kisses her neck. She closes her eyes. She raises an eyebrow and titles her head back some.

“You probably don’t know him.” She said slowly as she enjoys the touch of his lips on her neck. He pulls away and looks at her and smiles. She opens her eyes as she feels his lips leave her neck.

“Oh and does this guy have brown hair and blue eyes?” He asks her as his right hand leaves her hip. He touches brushes her left cheek with his thumb as his hand cradles her face. She leans her face into his palm.

“Maybe but he is a little bit more of a jerk.” She said in a sarcastic voice as her left hand touches his outside hand. Jay laughs. He shakes his head softly.

“You are a piece of work you know that.” He said in a soft voice.

She looks up at him with a smile on her face. She stands on her tip toes. “I know.” She said as she leans forward and kisses his lips softly. Jay kisses her back. He pulled away and looked at her. The light from the floor lamp made her hair into a light brown and brown color. Her face was glowing with happiness. Her eyes, her mysterious eyes, seem to have a different feel to them today then what they have ever had before. Her small petite lips from a soft and caring smile. His thumb that once touched her cheek traces her top lip. ‘God how do I deserve or how did I get someone as wonderful and special as Darcy.’ He thought.

“Jay,” Darcy said as she stopped the silence as she moved her hand down to her side. Jay nodded not sure what to say but more then anything afraid to saw anything. “I love you.” She finished quietly. He looks at her in shock and happiness. “I do… I have liked you for a long time. I always seemed to be mean to you before because I was afraid. But I am not afraid anymore.” She said as she began to babble.

“Hey. Hey, slow down. I like you too.” He said softly. She bites her bottom lip as her smile fades away. He left his hand free her face. ‘That is it. Is that all? Don’t you feel the same way about me?’ Darcy’s mind began to race as it thought. Jay saw that her mind was racing. He heard her heart pounding louder. “I don’t just like you. I love you. I have loved you since your freshman year. When you kissed Rick I was so jealous. I was jealous. But mostly I fell in love with you that day because of how different you were from everyone else.” He swallowed hard. A smile began to form on her face.

“Then why…..” She was about to say something when Jay’s index finger touched her lip.

“If I could create my perfect girlfriend, friend….. Wife…… partner…. It would be you.” He said slowly and carefully.
