Girls vs. Boys (25) - Hunter Jonathon Drax

This is not like a regular chapter of Girls vs. Boys. Read on and you'll see the difference quickly.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
I, Hunter Jonathon Drax, am not an idiot. At least, that's what I had always thought. I had been feared ever since the day I was born, all because of who my father was and what he had done in his past. I grew up with people looking up to me like I was a prince, even people who were even older than my father. This made me narcissistic and self-absorbed. This made me think I could do anything and everything without a second thought. This made me who I was.

My childhood was as normal as it could have been. With a loving mother and father, my home life was nice. As an only child, I was spoiled. My father loved me dearly, knowing that I would be the one to take over his loyal gang, the Blazing Brothers.

You might not believe it, but both of my parents treated me like a prince when I was a child. The environment that I grew up in wasn’t the best, but my family loved me very much. My father knew that I was going to do great things for the gang.

But I didn't want to do this, at first. As a child, I was harmless and sweet, only wanting friends that I could play with. But as I grew older and saw what my father would do, I accepted this as my fate. I knew that this was what I had to do.

So when my father died when I was only fourteen, I knew it was my time to step up. To finally become a man. I knew that this was what I was supposed to do.

Many members of the gang weren't happy that I was now the leader. After all, I was really only a child. But they knew that they couldn't complain, because I was my father's son. It was in my blood to be the leader.

I met Erica a short time after I had become the leader. She was the daughter of one of my father's best friends. She was two years older, beautiful, and interested in me just as much as I was with her. We started dating almost immediately, and I thought that what I felt for her was love.

And when I met Jesse Jacobsen, I thought I found one of the most loyal followers yet. He was willing to do anything, just out of pure boredom. He was loyal to me and the Blazing Brothers for almost four years. I never would have thought that he would steal the supposed love of my life from me.

I didn't expect this from Jesse. He had supposedly been in love with the same girl for almost four years. This girl wouldn't give Jesse the time of day, so he just decided that Erica would be good enough?

It was something that I just couldn't let him get away from. I wasn't going to let Jesse Jacobsen live after he had stolen my girlfriend and left the gang without the Blazing Brothers symbol burned into his back. I was going to get my revenge.

Jesse had never done anything with Erica. He didn't like her in that way at all, though Erica truly thought she was in love with him. After I had found out and Jesse rejected her, Erica fled across the country to Maine, where she knew she would be safe. Little did she know, I tracked her down easily and followed her there.

So when I saw Jesse Jacobsen for the first time after everything that had happened, I was surprised to see the girl with him. She was definitely beautiful, but she wasn’t the one that I was focusing on at the moment.

At first, I didn't know who she was, but in the back of my mind I couldn't help but find her familiar. But after I saw the way Jesse protected this girl, I knew that this was how I was going to get my revenge for Jesse stealing Erica.

When Jesse let it slip that the girl's name was Jordan, it finally clicked in my mind. This was the girl that Jesse Jacobsen had been in love with. This was the girl that he loved so much even though she couldn't stand the sight of him.

And I knew that this was just the start of the perfect revenge.

And that was what it started out as. Harassing Jordan was as  much fun as I thought it would have been. Scaring Jordan meant scaring Jesse as well, and that was what I wanted to do. I thought of nothing but revenge as I warned Jordan that I wasn't going to stop until Jesse was dead. I thought of nothing but revenge as I killed her grandmother.

But this was all about to change.

The first time I had really met Jordan Emery was when we were only children, but neither of us could really remember the other at first. After that, we would see each other every now and again because I had been best friends with her older brother Austin. We had been so close to each other before, but I never even noticed.

At first, I felt nothing for the girl at all. She was merely a pawn to get to Jesse Jacobsen. But as time went on, I noticed a different feeling I was having whenever I saw the girl. And at first, I really didn’t like it.

The first time I finally accepted that I was getting these feelings was when I snuck into their camp during what they called the senior fair, and I thought that the whole thing was stupid. I was able to get in easily, and I knew who I was there to see.

When I saw the girl sitting at the kissing booth, I couldn’t help but feel undeniably attracted to her. I didn't know why, but I shook it off as I sat across the booth from her. I had to remind myself that I loved Erica, and I always would.

And Jordan was disgusted to see me, like she always was. And when I asked to kiss her, she automatically denied. She wasn't about to kiss the man who had killed her grandmother, I knew, but that didn’t mean that I couldn’t try.

But this didn't stop me from getting what I wanted. Even though she had denied, this didn't stop me from kissing her. I thought that it would mean nothing to me at all, but things changed after that fateful kiss. Nothing with Jordan changed at all, I knew. I knew that something had changed inside me from that moment on.

I found myself not caring about Erica any longer. She wasn't the girl that was always on my mind any longer. Jordan was. I found myself quickly falling in love with her, which only fueled my hatred for Jesse Jacobsen even more.

Jordan didn't think that I was truly in love with her. But honestly, I was. She was always on my mind, and I really didn't want to hurt her. I didn't care about anyone else but her, but I knew that she was falling in love with my hated enemy.

I couldn't let that happen. I couldn't let the girl I loved so much fall for the same guy that had taken my first girlfriend away. I could have, and would have, treated her so much better if she only let me. If she gave me a chance, I would have shown her how amazing she really was. I wouldn’t have teased her for years like Jesse Jacobsen had.

Deep in my mind, I knew that Jordan didn’t love me and never would. I knew that she hated me more than anything and she really loved Jesse Jacobsen. But this wasn’t going to stop me from fighting for her.

I just didn’t see the appeal of Jesse Jacobsen at all. He was annoying and rude, and yet girls fell for him left and right. I knew how that felt, but I never liked any of the girls that had ever hit on me. The only girls I ever cared about were Erica and Jordan.

I wouldn’t deny it if someone said that I had something wrong with me mentally. I knew I wasn’t the sanest guy around. I had always been screwed up, and I was sure it was because my father had raised me the way he did, telling me all about the gang for my entire life.

I might have been a psychopath with a lot of other problems, but I really did love Jordan. Even though other people might not believe it, it was the truth.

The stupidest thing I had ever done had to be what had happened in the warehouse. No, I didn’t regret killing that girl, Alexandra or whatever. I regretted hurting Jordan the way I did. I just couldn’t control myself, and I treated her like I would any other person. But she wasn’t just any other person, she was the girl that I loved.

When I first pushed her against the wall, I didn’t even mean to. It was like I didn’t have control over my hands. I was just so angry and I didn’t even realize what I had done until I had already done it.

I was glad that Jesse and Alex stopped me before I had killed her. Because if I had ended her life, they would have been finding my body not much later.

If I had to kill her, I would have killed myself as well. I really didn’t want to hurt her any more than I already had. I had put her in the hospital after I had lost my temper and had beaten her. When I looked back on it, I honestly really regretted it. I had nearly killed her.

So honestly, I was glad that Erica had shot me. She had stopped me from killing Jordan and myself. All I really cared about was finally ending Jesse’s life.

When I had gotten caught, Jordan looked so relieved. It almost hurt me when I saw the look on her face, because I wanted her to look that way when she was with me. I wanted her to look relieved and safe when she was with me, because I could have kept her safe.  

She begged for my life during my trial. I thought that she would have been the first person to tell the jury to send me to death, but she wasn’t. She wanted me alive.

This gave me the slightest bit of hope, if you want the truth. If it wasn’t for her, I would have been killed. I had killed and hurt so many people that I should have gotten the death penalty. But much to Jesse Jacobsen and Alex Carson’s surprise, Jordan begged for my life at my trial.

“Hunter Drax is a horrible person,” she had started, and she looked straight into my eyes and not at the jury as she spoke. “He’s killed my grandmother, and my friend Alexandria. I’m sure he’s killed many other people other than them, but I honestly don’t want to know about that. He’s a horrible person, and he deserves to spend the rest of his life in jail. But I don’t want him to die.”

That asshole Jesse Jacobsen looked like he was going to jump out of his seat, and his idiotic blonde friend that was sitting next to him looked like he was going to pass out. All I could do was smirk, still staring right into Jordan’s brown eyes.

“I want him to live with what he did,” Jordan had continued now, glaring when she had seen me smirk at her. “Killing him would let him off easy. I want him to live knowing that I prefer someone else over him. I want him to live knowing that I love someone else and hate him. But also, I can’t let someone else die because of me.”

As long as I was alive, I had a chance with her. And that was all I really cared about.

I honestly loved her more than anything on the planet. I didn’t feel this way about Erica or any other girl before in my entire life. I thought that I had been in love with Erica, but I was wrong. I didn’t want to be with her anymore, I wanted to be with Jordan. But they both preferred Jesse Jacobsen over me.

When I was sentenced to life in prison without any possibility of parole, I was expecting it. It was the only sentence I could have gotten without dying. I knew that there was no way for me to get out of prison unless I somehow escaped. This might have been possible, but I was going to have to think about that before I tried anything stupid.

“I just have one thing to say,” I announced as a guard grabbed my arm to lead me out of the courtroom. I turned toward Jordan, who was now standing beside Jesse and Alex. I smirked at her as I continued, “I’ll always love you, Jordan. No matter what you think.”

She stared at me, but didn’t say anything as I was now being escorted out of the room. I didn’t know if this would be the last time I ever saw her, but I was going to treat it like it was. So of course I had to have the last word.

I wanted to kill Jesse Jacobsen for what he had done to me. He had taken the love of my life and had thrown me in jail. He wasn’t exactly an angel, but no one ever thought about that. Everyone seemed to forget that he had been in the gang as well. He might have not been the leader, but he was still in the gang.

He would deal drugs all the time, even though he never did them himself. I didn’t do any either, because that was how my father had died. Jesse would get into fights, even though he hadn’t ever killed anyone. Just because he hadn’t killed anyone didn’t mean that he hadn’t stabbed or shot someone before like I had. He just didn’t have the guts to go all the way like I did. He was too soft, and I blamed it on Jordan. If it wasn’t for her, he probably would have ended up just like me.

But she had made me soft, too. If it wasn’t for her, I never would have let my guard down. I never would have gone to their graduation, and I never would have gotten thrown into jail. I would have still been on the streets, able to do whatever I wanted. But no, the stupid girl made me weak.

This wouldn’t have been much of a problem, if she had left Jesse for me. I always wondered what it would have been like if we had met some other way. Could she have fallen for me if we had met through her brother? Would she accept me and the gang like she had accepted Jesse? Would everything be different?

If I had met her through her brother, I knew things would have been different. If I had met her through her brother, when she still hated Jesse Jacobsen, we could have gotten closer to each other and she wouldn’t have fallen in love with that asshole. She would have forgotten about Dallas, the guy she had liked back then, and she would have fallen in love with me.

Jesse Jacobsen wasn’t the perfect little angel everyone thought he really was. But no one was going to believe me, because I was supposed to be the bad guy.

All the guards at my prison hated me, but I didn’t really blame them. They would tease and poke fun at me whenever they could, and most of the time they would viciously make fun of me about Jordan. This was the one thing that I couldn’t stand to hear when I was in prison.

The guards had fought over who would tell me the news that they had just overheard. Finally, one of them told me the horrid news. Jordan was pregnant with Jesse Jacobsen’s child and they were planning on getting married.

I had been in jail for four years before this had happened, and I didn’t hear anything about Jordan except for when the guards would taunt me. But when I heard the news, I didn’t know what I was supposed to do.

I wanted to kill someone. Preferably Jesse Jacobsen, who had caused all of my problems in the first place. If it wasn’t for him, I never would have lost Erica and I never would have fallen in love with Jordan. Jesse Jacobsen caused everything bad to happen in my life. If it wasn’t for him, I would have been a free man and I wouldn’t have been in jail.

She was supposed to have my children, not Jesse Jacobsen’s. I had to get my revenge on him somehow, no matter what I had to do to do it. They were starting a family and continuing their lives as if I didn’t even exist anymore. But I had to be in the back of their minds, I just knew I had to. They couldn’t have just forgotten me like I never even came into their lives.

I had to do something, I knew. But what, I didn’t know. I just had to do something about what was going on outside of my prison cell. I had been sitting around for four years, and now the love of my life was pregnant with another guy’s baby. I had to do something to stop this.

I love you, Jordan, and I’m willing to do absolutely anything to be with you.

I missed Hunter so much that I just had to write this. Don't judge me. ;)

There will be a normal chapter next, I promise.

The video on the side... If you watch Pretty Little Liars, you might have seen that scene. It made me scream when I saw it.

I'm sorry that this took forever for me to upload! I've just been kind of stressed out lately. And on Friday, I had to study lines for an understudy part that I got, and I had to perform it on Saturday. I was freaking out before I went on stage, but everyone said I did great. :D

Please COMMENT, VOTE, and FAN! :D
