Jacob

Searched everywhere for Daniel after class. He had read my text, but didn’t respond.

Then my phone buzzed in my hand.

A text from Daniel.

“Come to the bathroom. NOW!”

The school hours were over, and most of the students were heading back to the dorm.

The text sounded urgent, but I could not leave without attracting the attention of Kenny and his friends.

They’d been gawking at me since after Daniel left the class. And even when the class was over, they’d followed me around like lost puppies… and not in the cute way.

It was in the most annoying ‘I’d break all their heads open’ way.

Kenny’s smirk made everything worse.

“Need to use the bathroom for a minute, K, so it would be really nice if you could hold your friends,” I said slowly, hoping Kenny would understand my situation for once.

“That’s not a problem, Couz. We wanna use the bathroom too, right guys.” His voice was loud, but he didn’t turn to look at his friends. His eyes were fixed on me, like I was some criminal plo

  • Jacob Hale: Enemy’s Secret Toy   Chapter 38

    JacobThe bell rang, after class, loud and annoying, and everyone bolted out of the classroom like it was on fire. Daniel was still not speaking to me, and Reggie?Well, Reggie wasn’t speaking to him either. Backpacks zipped up, chairs scraping the floor, and laughs bouncing off the walls. But not me, I just sat there, all nervous and fidgety.Wanted to go over to where Daniel was, but what would I say if I did? “Sorry, I made us go to the clearing… sorry it’s my fault that you and Reggie aren’t talking.”Daniel stuffed his books into his backpack, and I watched him leave the classroom without even noticing me.Waited a few minutes before I could follow, but Mr Richard had other plans for me."Jacob, hang on a sec?" Mr Richard called out, like it was no big deal. Like he hadn't done something awful to me.Like our relationship was still that of a teacher and his favorite student. I should've told him no, not today. Should have told him that I had a lot of catching up on my studie

    JacobBefore I could even say a word. Daniel already had Reggie on the floor. His fists flying in and out of Reggie’s face. “How could you do this, Reg.” His voice was breaking and I tried to get him off of Reggie, but failed. Reggie also tried to talk, but he landed a punch on his lip. “You’re fucking dead, you bastard.” He yelled. Then a phone buzzed. It wasn’t mine. It was Daniel’s.He flung Reggie to the side, picked up his phone, and his whole expression changed when he opened the text. “Who’s that?” I asked. He didn’t answer, he slumped to the ground beside Reggie’s battered face, and just handed me his phone.It was from the same unknown number that had been texting us for weeks. The text was short.“Poor Reggie, suffering for what he knows nothing about.”The text broke my heart, but I could see it did worse to Daniel. Reggie was innocent, and he’d been battered by Daniel… his best friend. The stalker must have sent Reggie a text to meet as well. He just wanted both h

    JacobThe next day came quicker than I’d anticipated. It felt like few minutes ago since Daniel was in my room, and now it was morning. Time sure did go fast when you’re having a blast. Maybe I was sad, because I didn’t want Daniel to leave… or maybe it was because of the text from last night. “The clearing tomorrow night.”It sounded more like a threat than an invitation, and it was only a few hours until nightfall. “Don’t worry about it, pretty boy. I’m sure it’s someone deprived of attention.”“You don’t know that.”“Yeah… I say we ignore it.”“What do you mean… ignore it? We can’t ignore it. This person has an intimate photo of us… and… and he could post it whenever he wanted.”“Exactly, Jake. We're going to meet… whoever this person is won’t change anything.”“We have to try at least. Maybe we going could make them change their mind. We could convince them.”“This seems like blackmail… and you don’t convince blackmailers… Jake.”“You may be right…. but we’re going. We can’t ri

    JacobThe words were like a sharp blade, suspended midair."On your knees, pretty boy, or I’ll ruin you."My breath stuttered, and my fingers twitched at my sides, muscles twisted tight enough to snap at any second. Wanted to run… to fight… to rebel against this, but Daniel's gaze was an inescapable trap.It was dark, and already savoring the moment. And that was when I realized there was no winning here. Only surrender.He didn't raise his voice. Didn't need to. The quiet certainty in his tone was worse than any yelling. He had won, and this was just the formality of my admitting it.A short moment passed.Then. My stiffened knees hit the floor.Daniel exhaled slowly and satisfied. “Good boy. That wasn’t so hard now, was it?”I didn’t answer. It had started with one secret.A careless one. A mistake, the kind most people could bury and forget, and just move on with their life, but not him. He wasn't most people. He was the kind of guy who exploited people’s vulnerabilities, w

    Daniel“Reg, what the fuck man?”I said, buttoning up my shirt really fast. Jacob had gotten under the chairs really quickly, but his breathing was too loud.There was no point in him hiding at this point.“Sorry man, rehearsal is in ten. I’ll hold them off, while you finish up… and leave.”Leave? The word made me laugh.“Then I’ll let them come if you think I’m so funny now.”“No no no, Reg. Just give me five.”“Be quick, man.” He said, closing the door. Reggie must have been too shocked, that he forgot I was part of the rehearsal… and he was telling me to leave. “You can come out now,” I said trying so hard to hold myself from laughing. Jacob sat up, and the minute he looked at me, it all went to shit.Couldn’t hold myself anymore from laughing, and he joined me. “What the fuck… was that?” He said, almost out of breath from laughing. “Rehearsal is in a few, so you gotta go. Reggie will help you.”“Yeah yeah. See you tonight.”“See you tonight, pretty boy,” I said spanking his

    Jacob “Meet me at the theater after class.” Daniel had sent.The class ended, but before we could leave, Mr Richard came in. Fuck!“Can I go to the bathroom, Mr. Richard?” Daniel raised his hand. “You can go after the pop quiz, Cobbs.”The whole class roared in shock. Pop quiz? Mr Richard was definitely up to something with this.It was like he stood at the door, waiting for the teacher to finish, so he could come in immediately and stop anyone from leaving. “Could it be that these photos and texts were from him?” The thought sounded ridiculous in my head. Then another thought came to my head, and my eyes flickered to Mr Richard and then to Daniel, and as if he understood what I wanted to do, he nodded his head in agreement.Text the unknown number. That was the plan. If it was him sending the texts, the we’d find out. But then, he wouldn’t be stupid enough to bring the phone to class, and even if he did, it would be on silent. But I went ahead and texted the number anyway.

    Daniel“Daniel,” Jacob called out almost out of breath. “I’m sorry about last night. I…l…”“Don’t be Jake!” I said sharply, walking in to my room and he just followed, without waiting for me to invite him in.“Are you okay? You look a mess.” He asked, when we were inside the room. I’m not okay, Jake. But you wouldn’t care if I told you that.Jacob had been apologized for not coming over last night… but not about the incident at the office. “I’m fine. You can leave now.”A door slammed shut, causing us to jump. “You should go be with Mr Richard.”“What?”I didn’t answer.Then he let out a short laugh. “What you saw yesterday… that’s not…”“Don’t care what it was, Jake. It’s none of my business.”Jacob stepped closer, grabbing my hand. “I’m so sorry you had to see that, Daniel.”His eyes looked like he was about to cry, and my heart couldn’t take it if he did, but the words in my throat refused to come out.“I was stupid enough to trust Mr Richard and that was why that happened.”He w

    DanielWalking back to the room, with Reggie striding right behind me, I couldn’t stop thinking about what I’d seen at Mr Richard’s office.Jacob was pinned against the wall, his eyes closed, and Mr Richard… kissing him. He didn’t seem to be fighting against it… or trying to push him off him. He just stood there, eyes closed…hands raised slightly about his shoulders. And Mr Richard? Who the fuck did he think he was to do that… to kiss Jacob.He wasn’t his to play with… or whatever it was he was doing.Jacob was mine. Even without the contract… he belonged to me.And if Mr. Richard thought he would just take him from me… then he had another thing coming.The walk back to the dorm was quick, but each step I took sent shivers of pain down my spine. Wanted to run back, and punch Mr Richard in the face… hard! And drag Jacob out of the office, but there was no point doing that.He seemed to like what was being done to him… to like Mr Richard. Reggie stayed with me for a little while,
