Chapter Nine
Your POV
I put my fingers to my temples and I start pacing back and fourth. "How old are you." I ask while pacing back and fourth "8." she whispered "8!" I yell in shock what's a 8 year old doing out on the streets. I CANT take care of a 8 year old matter of fact I cant even take care of myself she looks at me and her eyes flicker from my face to my wrist. I quickly pull down my sleeves to hid the 'battle scars.' she then did the same but I cant leave here back out on the streets just then a door opened causing me to pull out of my thoughts. I turn around to see what I'm going to guess is Jack "Well look's like the tables have turned now whos making the noise." my eyes flickered to the girl and back to jack. "I need to talk to you." I whisper "Ah sure who's the girl and do you want to come in." I look back at her she shakes her head frantically and I can see tears sting her eyes. "S-she's had a ruff day I-I think it would be better I-if we talk at my place." he nodded his and slipped out of his apartment the girl ran into my apartment right after me she then hid behind me. "Hey......-Amina" (Uh-mean-uh) she interrupted "Well Amina its getting pretty late." I say well taking out my phone "Do you want to take a bath and head to bed." she nods her head slowly I take her to the bathroom she waits there while I went to get a shirt that would probably fit her. I give her a towel so she can wash up "Do you know how to take a shower?" she nods her head "Ok just yell if you need anything." I then close the bathroom door. I enter the living room where I left Jack " You know your really great with kids I can already tell that you'll be a great mother." I blush a bit before I go back to being serious "She lives on the street." I accidently blurt out his whole expression changed "What do you mean where did you even find her." " I stopped her from getting kidnaped." he opened his mouth wide "What the actual fuck did you try calling the police." "Mmhhh really there's a thing called the police I never even thought of calling the police OF COURSE I TRIED CALLING THE POLICE!" I yelled "Sorry I know stupid question I'm sorry but what are you going to do?" I sit on the couch and put my hands in my head "I don't even know I thought you would." I feel a dip in the couch meaning he sat down next to me I feel his hand on my back I put my head on his chest "But just know that if you need anything at all I'm right next door." I hear footsteps and a quiet voice speak "I'm ready for bed." I looked at Amina she had this cute shirt on that looked really big on her and a messy bun
"Oh really?" Jack asked she nodded her head "Well did you have a story told to you?" she shook her head no Jack then gasped "Oh no you need a story told to you that's like in the rules of sleeping before sleeping you need to be tucked in and secured then a story." she looked at me confused "Oh yeah its a pretty big deal in the sleeping world." she smiled jack then got off the couch a swooped the girl in his arms and brought her to my bedroom and carefully placed her in bed she giggled I slid in bed on one side of her and Jack slid in the other "So what do you want the story to be about?" Jack asked "Oh how about princesses." he smiled and started the story "OK once there was a princess...."
