《The Mistake》Chapter Twenty
Advertisement
Hey school started and I've been already loaded with homework. I'll do my best to update at least once a week. Enjoy!
Mindy blinks rapidly a few times to make sure that what she was seeing is real. Her eyes left his and roam down to his naked chest once again before looking at her own body covered in fabric she knew didn't belong to her.
"Aaahhhhhh!" her scream came piercing to the ears.
Shoving his body away from her, once she's made enough distance between them her legs yank out to connect with his torso kicking him off the bed.
He falls with a hard thump on his bum.
"Dang it princess, well it seems you are all better now." He groan getting up rubbing his bum all at the same time.
Jonah knew she was awake the moment her smile spread across her face. His eyes had never left her once so he knew she was conscious when her movements started a couple minutes ago. His heart drummed rhythms of happiness and relief. He quietly thanked the lord and angels for watching over her when she had open her honey eyes he so dearly missed. But of course he replaced the loving smile that he wanted to show with a sly sexy smirk.
Mindy had already made her way off the bed onto the opposite side. As much as he missed her, his eyes travel down her body to her bare legs. Now that she was actually awake and in one of his button up shirt that came down to her mid-thigh with only her underwear underneath, he loved the look on her and thought she was extremely sexy.
She follow his gaze down to her leg only then to realize that she wasn't wearing any pants and was only covered by his shirt.
"Kyaaa!" shrieking she hops back on the bed covering her body with the blanket.
"What the hell is going on here!? Why were we sleeping together? Who changed me? Where's my clothing and where the hell is my bra!?" her arms covers her chest and her cheeks flush remembering the warm embrace she woke up to that she cannot deny she loved.
"Hahaha, calm down princess. I can explain everything." He purrs.
"You've been out cold sick for days and yesterday you were cold with a fever so I warmed you up. I've washed your clothing they are in your room right now including your bra and panties. I took off your bra because I thought you would be more comfortable without one. You're in my shirt because I know you'd appreciate not being in one of your tiny shirt with your chest exposed through it. Although I wouldn't had mind. Pants are off because you are injured on your thigh. And of course, it's just you and me here so who do you think changed you?" He said arching his brows twice teasing her. "God I missed this," he thought.

"You...you...you changed me?" she stuttered, eyes bulging.
"I didn't see anything and had my eyes closed. And I didn't do anything to your precious body. Scouts honor." He said putting his right hand over his chest.
She tosses a pillow at him directly hitting him on the face.
Suddenly, the memory of the night when he came home drunk race through her mind. Now that she's thinking about it, her body and muscle aches all over and there was a sting on her left thigh. The anger she had at him disperse and was replace with hurt. She was hurt that he had done that to her. Even though he wasn't in his right mind at the time, she can't forgive me. She had almost die out there in the rainy cold.
Jonah recovering from the hit by the pillow, was ready to tease her when he saw the seriously look on her face. He knew then that she had remembered all that had happened.
"Mindy, I want you to know that I'm sorry. I would never hurt you that way if I was in my right mind. I don't know what came over me and I promise it will never happen again. I'm sorry." He said sincerely his eyes begging her for forgiveness.
"I probably deserved it. Now can we call it even and let me go?" she whispered.
"I'm sorry I can't." he said quietly looking away.
"I knew it." With that she gets off his bed dragging her body along.
"Where are you going?"
"Don't worry, I can't leave. I don't have the strength too. I just really need a shower."
"Okay."
He watches her back as she slowly makes her way out of his room. He wanted so badly to wrap his arms around her and help her walk but knew this wasn't the right time.
*****
A few days past since Mindy's return to consciousness. Within these days, Jonah haven't made much contact with her. He'd bring her food in bed claiming her to be too weak and fragile to go downstairs or basically do anything. Besides that he would occasionally check up on her to see if she was having another fever, clean her cut or see if she was uncomfortable in any way.

Mindy continued her charade even after her body has fully healed. He was paying less attention to security as he thought she was still too weak to rebel against him so she planned to use this to her advantage. She had already devise a plan to get away and that plan was going to be put into use today.
It was 6 in the morning, and she had made sure to wake up early to put her plan into action. She can hear Jonah getting up in the next room. About five minutes later she hears the shutting of a door and the shower in his room turning on.
Swiftly but silently she gets out of bed and tiptoe her way into the bathroom. She was already dressed in skinny jeans, and a white tank with a green hoodie over it from the night before. She turns on the shower faucet closing the curtains after. Turning the lock on the bathroom doorknob she steps out of the bathroom shutting the door. Going back into her room she lays out a new set of clothing on the bed. Finally putting on her running shoes, she makes her way downstairs. Silently she opens the door and steps out into the early morning. Closing the door, she steps back taking one last look at the house before running off towards the wood.
Jonah was whistling random tunes as he dresses in his room. He knew Mindy was awake because the shower was already running in the hallway. It was odd that she is up earlier than usual but he brushes it off.
Walking down the hall he takes a peek into her room to see her outfit for the day laid out on her bed. Turning around he knocks on the bathroom door, "Hurry up princess, I'm going down to make breakfast."
Smiling to himself, he heads to the kitchen.
It's been 30 minutes and Jonah was already done with preparing breakfast. Setting up a plate, he brings it up to her room.
"She's still in the shower? What's taking her so long?"
"Princess? You alright in there?" he asked knocking on the bathroom door.
"Hello? What's taking so long?"
-Silence-
"If you don't answer me I'm going to come in."
He knocked some more but there were still no reply. Thinking the worst that maybe she fainted in the shower he hurried into his room to grab the keys in his drawer. Opening the door, he was greeted with hot foggy air. Waving the air away he moves towards the shower.
"Mindy, I'm going to open the curtain of you don't reply."
Jonah was nervous for some reason. His gut was telling him that this was a bad situation. He pulls the curtain aside and his heart sink to the pit of his stomach.
"Mindy where are you?!" he shouted while rushing out of the bathroom into her room which was of course empty as well.
"Shit shit shit shit!" he speeds downstairs to the front door only to find it unlock.
"She left..." he almost whisper. His heart pained at the fact that she actually left him. But that was quickly replace with worry and fear.
He looks out the window to see his car there. She didn't take the car he was surprised. But he knew that only means that she wouldn't take the chance of taking the main road either.
"Is she crazy. That girl has no idea the dangers in this forest." He didn't want to think about what can happen to her. The forest was very dense in certain areas and stretch farther than the eyes can see.
Running up to his room he throws on a hoodie and his shoes and he grabs his gun out of the locked cabinet.
