ENTRAPPED WITH YOU - EPISODE 51 AND 52

John laughed loudly and Andie gasped painfully as he roughly removed the knife from his belly, Chantelle screamed again when Andie went weakly on his knees, vomiting more blood

John laughed again, looking at Chantelle and he started walking towards her

She shifted back as John got closer and closer

“Tonight is your death hour, ion know why you refused to die with your parents back then, w*nch!* He yelled and rushed to her

He tried to ram the knife into her belly but he was pulled back from her by Andie

Andie pushed him away and John fell..

Andie is still bleeding profusely, he held Chantelle to himself, breathing heavily with bloody lips

“Andie” Chantelle whispered

He looked at her and nodded. “You’re ok right?” He asked, holding his bleeding stomach with the other hand

Chantelle cried more when she saw that

“Then I’ll just kill you both” John said, standing up and grabbing the knife again but this time he was interrupted by the cops

They rushed in and he stood frozen on his tracks as they surrounded him

“Don’t move!, and drop the knife right now” one of the cops said

” Shit!” He spat and threw down the knife

He suddenly dashed for the door and tried to escape but he was captured and apprehended

“F*vk!, I took care of her!, I’ve been accommodating her here since her parents death!, What have I done wrong!, Chantelle I’ll be the one to kill you!, You’ll die by my hands!” He kept shouting as he was taken out

Andie breathed loudly before facing Chantelle, he smiled faintly and Chantelle touched his bleeding tummy, his blood stained her hand in the process

“Andie…” She gasped

Andie hugged her face in his palms and smiled again

“I’m happy” he said faintly

“Why would you be happy when you got wounded because of me…. Andie you’re bleeding…..your blood…” She hiccuped

“I’m happy that you’re fine, and I’m sorry that I came late, your pretty face got wounded” he said, slightly touching her wounds

She cringed and he quickly removed his hand

“I love you….very much” he said and went limp on her shoulder

” Andie!, Andie!!” She screamed and he was quickly taken from her by the paramedics who were contacted by the cops

He was placed on a stretcher and drove out of the place

******

Jeremy’s place”*

*Grandpa!!!” Velvet screamed, jumping into Steve’s arms immediately she entered

Steve was already waiting by the door

“My Velvet” he smiled, hugging her dearly

Jeremy smiled and went to their rooms to drop their bags before coming back

Steve and Velvet are just breaking the hug by now

He hugged Steve and Steve touched his hair fondly

“I missed you both” he said

“We missed you more grandpa, I’m just so glad to see you after one long week” Velvet replied

” How was Caledonia?” Steve asked

“The best place to be” Jeremy replied

“We enjoyed ourselves like you wanted* Velvet said and Steve smiled then hugged them both at a time

“So this month ends on Sunday, next month is starting on Monday, when exactly is grandpa’s birthday?” Velvet asked

” On the 5th, so Friday” Jeremy said

” OMG!, So your brother Bentley will be coming back, can’t wait to meet him but I hope he likes me and won’t chase me out” Velvet said

” He dislikes troublesome people like you so learn to be gentle during his stay” Jeremy said

” Ok…I guess I’ll have to play saint” she replied

“The imagination is giving me the creeps already” Jeremy said and she laughed

“So….what do you guys want for dinner?” Steve asked

” Fried rice!” They both said at the same time, looked at each other and stuck hands

Steve entered the kitchen then a news came on “news now” station on TV

Coming in from mongdae right now, a member of BMM got stabbed by a man whose name is John Diego, …..

“What!” Jeremy and Velvet screamed at the same time

Velvet’s phone rang immediately, it’s Chantelle

“Chantelle did you see the news?” She asked after picking hastily

“Velvet…” Chantelle cried and that scared her

“Chantelle you’re crying?, Why?, Are you ok?”

” I’m not ok a bit…. Andie got stabbed by my uncle and he’s just on the bed right now not talking to me, I don’t know what to do” she cried again

” It was… Andie?, Shoot!, Is he fine now?” Velvet asked

” The doctors said he’ll be fine but he’s not even talking to me, his eyes are closed and he won’t open them I’m so scared” she replied

” Calm down, tell me the name of the hospital I’ll catch up” Velvet said.

” Luna’s” she replied and Velvet hung up

” Luna’s, do you know where it is?” She asked

“Sure…. grandpa we’ll be back!” Jeremy shouted, going out with Velvet

They took a cab which drove them to the hospital and it didn’t take long before they found his ward, one of the VVIP wards

The rest of the BMM are already there when they got in, Chantelle is crying seriously with red wounded face

Velvet ran to her and hugged her,,

“I’m glad you’re finally here” she said as Velvet broke the hug and wiped her tears

” I’m sorry, please don’t cry anymore” Velvet said

“Can’t believe this….your uncle is a beast, and you’ve been living with that beast since your parents death, you’re strong, no wonder I sensed you were hiding something”Barbie said slowly

” The spots on your back…” Velvet said

” Yes it’s his handiwork, he beats me with belt everytime” Chantelle replied

” Shit!, What the hell!” Brittany said angrily

” He’s going to jail, there’s no way he’s gonna escape jail, how could he” Rose said

” There are still animals in human form, I can’t believe this” Bryce muttered

” So that’s why you were cold and stayed in your corner, you’ve been suffering in silence” Jeremy said pitifully

” I just didn’t want to drag you guys into the mess with me” she replied

” Don’t worry about him, he’ll wake up, he’s strong” Brittany said, looking at Andie who’s still unconscious on the bed

“Our blogs is full, Nobles won’t stop sending get well soon” Barbie said

” Nobles?” Velvet said

” That’s BMM fandom name” Chantelle said slowly

“Oh, never knew” she said slowly

” Are you even a full time fan of BMM?, You don’t even know the fandom name?” Bryce said

” Don’t talk to me, I was talking to you last night and you ignored me, let’s keep it going” she replied and Bryce blinked

” I came late my jeez!” Adrian shouted, just entering

” Are the Nobles still outside?” Rose asked

“Yes, they’re everywhere around the hospital, they do care a lot about Andie…..I can’t believe my buddy is lying down without moving, I’m hurt!” Adrian replied

” He’ll be fine” Brittany said and he nodded..

“I’ll believe that” he said

“You should get your face treated” Velvet said to Chantelle

” I did that already, I’m fine now” she replied

She has stopped crying by now

” You’ll be fine now that the demon has been arrested” Jeremy said

They stayed with him like that till it’s late

Only Jeremy and Velvet went back home so they won’t get Steve worried, the rest stayed

*****

The Maddox mansion**

“Agatha you haven’t touched your food at all” Mrs Maddox said during dinner when she noticed

Agatha didn’t reply, she kept staring into space

“Agatha” she called again but it’s still the same till she hit her palm on the table, Agatha spranged up

“Holy Molly, what were you thinking” she said

” Mother” she said, holding her chest

“Something wrong?, Please talk to me” Mrs Maddox said

Agatha ran upstairs immediately, going into her room and locking the door behind

She stayed in front of her mirror and dipped her hand in her hair

“I’m going nuts…. Jeremy” she said to herself , biting on her bottom lip

“What do I do?, Should I die in silence?” She asked herself

” No….I can’t…. I’d rather speak up…… I’d rather tell him….I can’t keep it in anymore” she said to herself

*****

Next morning**

Chantelle came back to the hospital after leaving the cops station, she answered all the questions she was asked and it’s sure that John won’t lose jail, the marks on her back is verification that he beats her

And he’s not denying too, he kept ranting inside the cell that he’ll have her killed

She entered the ward and saw Jeremy and Velvet are back

“How was it?” Velvet asked

“It went well” she replied with a thin smile

“I’m glad, you can put your mind at rest” Velvet said

” That’ll be when he wakes” she replied, looking at Andie

” Then at least eat” Brittany said

“I don’t have an appetite’ she replied

” I said he’ll be fine trust me and eat already” Brittany said

“No….not till he wakes” Chantelle replied

” She’s stubborn, stop trying” Adrian said

” Andie!” Bryce said, seeing him open his eyes slowly.

They all turned to him and truly his eyes are opened already

“Andie!” Chantelle rushed, quickly sitting beside him on the bed

“A pillow” he said and Chantelle quickly placed a pillow on his back which he rested on

He smiled slowly, looking at everyone

“Since when have I been like this?” he asked

“Yesterday when you got stabbed” Bryce replied

” Oh….I didn’t take long, you all must have been scared” he said

“You scared shit out of me” Adrian said

” I’m sorry” he smiled

” It’s fine so far you’re now awake, I’m relieved” Brittany said

Andie held Chantelle’s hand and smiled at her, tears came out of her eyes instead

“Hey stop crying, I hate tears” he said

“I thought you died when you went limp, I was so scared,very scared that I hated myself” she said

” I’m sorry for scaring you, the bastard is with the cops right?”

” Yes” Chantelle replied

” Your face , does it hurt a lot?” Andie asked

“No, what about your stomach?” She asked

“Looking at you right now, I don’t feel any pain” he smiled and Bryce touched his stomach

“Ouch!” He shouted and that made them laugh

” Lair” Bryce said

” I’ll take my revenge” Andie said and Bryce laughed

Andie caressed Chantelle’s hand and she smiled

“I love you” he whispered only to her hearing and she smiled, holding him tighter

They all stayed till night when Jeremy and Velvet left with Adrian

When they got to the front of the hospital, Jeremy’s phone rang, it’s Agatha

He hesitated to pick and waited for her to go first

“Jeremy” she said gently

“What’s up?” He replied

Adrian is already in the car, Velvet was about to enter the car when she noticed Jeremy isn’t following, she held the car door and looked back to see him talking phone

“Can we meet tonight?” Agatha asked

“Why?” Jeremy asked, arching a brow

“I want to see you…. for just five minutes please” she said

“Five minutes” he replied

” It won’t exceed five minutes” she said

*Where?” He asked and she told him where before he hung up

He looked ahead and found Velvet staring at him.

He walked to her and sighed before walking to her

“I need to go see Agatha” he said and her mood changed

” Why?” She asked slowly, looking into his eyes as if to bring out the truth

“She wants to meet for just five minutes, Adrian will drop you home, I’ll meet you” he said and turned to go but she held his shirt

He looked back and touched her hair while smiling

“I’ll be back soon ok?” He said, slowly removing her hand from his shirt

He stopped a cab and entered while Velvet watched the cab till it’s out of sight

****

A bridge**

Agatha is standing on the wide bridge, watching the calm river when Jeremy got there

Her back is on him but when she heard footsteps, she looked back and Immediately she saw him, she ran to hug him tight, taking him by surprise

“Agatha” he said slowly, not hugging her back till she broke it

“I’m sorry…I was just overwhelmed, I’m glad you came” she said, smiling largely

” I have to return fast, what do you have to say?” He asked

“Let’s take a walk, I’ll tell you during the walk” she said

Jeremy hesitated before giving in, they started the walk and the cool night breeze brushed past them slowly as they walked

For over three minutes, they’re still walking till Agatha stopped and faced him, her eyes are glassy, like she’s about to cry

“Agatha” he said, staring at her

“I’m sorry, when you confessed and I humiliated you, I was still so obsessed with my status as the only daughter of the rich Maddox family, I never knew I lost something valuable” she said, finally releasing her tears

“Agatha” Jeremy said, still staring unbelievably

“Since the beginning of the Caledonia trip, I think the veil covering my face got removed, Jeremy I now know how I truly feel about you” she said

” And?” Jeremy asked

” I love you….” she said almost immediately and Jeremy’s eyes went wide

” I love you very much, I love you so much Jeremy, I don’t know if I still have a chance but I really love you now” she said

When Jeremy tried to talk again, she hugged him tightly

” Please don’t say you don’t love me anymore, please don’t say no, please don’t say no I beg you” she said

Jeremy stood confused and watched her crying in front of him while holding him tight

He heaved and allowed her for a while before she broke it herself

She looked up at him and held his face….

She scanned it shortly before slamming her lips on his own…. shocking him more.

****

Grandpa Steve went to bed after Velvet told him Jeremy will soon be back

She took her ice cream from the freezer but couldn’t even eat

All she’s thinking of is Jeremy and what he could possibly be doing with Agatha

He said he won’t take long but it’s taking too long

She went out and started parading the front of the house, waiting for him

It’s cold but she endured, deciding to wait for him there despite the cold

She sat by the door and eventually stood then started walking around again

After about five minutes, she bent down worriedly

“Why isn’t he back yet?, I’m scared, what could he be doing with her…. Jeremy” she said to herself

Just then, Jeremy appeared though she didn’t see him at first.

Jeremy stopped when he saw her bending in front of the house

He started staring at her for what looks like forever before moving

Velvet spranged up when she heard movements and when she saw it’s him, she ran madly to him and hugged him tight,,

That feeling you get when you get back what’s yours

“Velvet” Jeremy whispered, hugging her back slowly

She stayed in his arms for a while before breaking the long hug

Her red nose tip and her red lips shows how cold she is right now, she’s slightly shivering too, seems she caught the flu

“I love you” she said suddenly and Jeremy’s heart skipped beats immediately

“I think I’m going to go insane if I don’t tell you, I’m in love with you baby” she said sincerely and Jeremy kept staring

Another shock but he surely feels the difference between the two,….but right now…. he’s too too disoriented, not knowing what to say, he just kept staring like she’s an ancient statue in a museum

“She looks strong but she’s actually fragile….what if a relationship between us will make her cry, what if we fight….what if we break up if she gets angry?, What if we…..” He kept thinking all these in his mind but suddenly stopped and looked at her

“Let’s not do this” he said and tears immediately rushed down Velvet’s cheeks…
