The Jump by B.B. (best ereader for manga txt) 📕

I am Juliana. I am '6 "1 . I have black hair that is always in my face, hiding my blue eyes with a ring of red. I have what people call the "perfect figure". I don't care. My life sucks, always has, always will, until the day. I have been planning for a very long time. I will go to the top of my 10 story building, (apartments) and jump. Perfect plan, and I have made it flawless. I will do it when my 'boyfriend' (he doesn't act like it) is at work and no one I know will be around, and I will die, just die, and not have to live another day.

"Hey Juliana! I'm home!" That is Eric. Tall, skinny, blond, sweet, loving, but never seems satisfied with me. "In the study!" I hid the small index card in my pocket and open my laptop, looking at the work I still have. I quickly finished by the time entered. I pressed save, sent it to my boss, and twirled in my chair to face him. "Hey." I say with a forced smile, but they think it's normal. Suddenly his lips are on mine, loving, passionate. I felt my eyes go wide. What the hell?! He never does that. I felt myself relax into the kiss and we finally broke apart. "What was that for?" I asked honestly surprised. "Anniversary present." He smiled that smile that I love. That's why I started dating him. I pulled roses and his favorite cake from behind me. "Well I guess you don't need these?" I teased. "YES I NEED THOSE!" He grabbed the stuff and yelled "Be in the kitchen!" as he left. I felt used for some reason. I knew it was the beginning of the end for me. Ever since I was a child I was brutally torchered. I was made fun of for anything and everything. Even Eric makes fun of me. People just choose me to pick on. Am I easy pray? Do I look like that? Now back to kindergarten, give you a little background. Best year of my life,because of Thane. He beat up bullies for me, I lied for him. He brought the drinks, I'd bring the snacks. He was the tough guy, I was the softy. It is the truth that opposites attract. But my hero was not there in high school, where I got eaten alive, and I wished he was. I had tried to commit suicide, not once, not twice, but three times in my 4 years because of the emotional pain, which built up into physical pain. Attempt 1) Drug overdose, Attempt 2)Blood loss Attempt 3)Drug overdose again. Eventually, I just gave up, and now it has started again, and it's finally time. Time for my end. To rid the world of me.

Thane's P.O.V.

Why me?! Why did I have to love a girl that was taken!?!? Being a vampire sucks enough, but add love and emotion in the equation = I'm doomed! Juliana, so beautiful, but she doesn't realize it. Her 'boyfriend' just takes and never gives. Never makes her feel good. It's not fair to her! She's had a tough enough life! Practically being killed, then bullied her whole life?!?! What the hell is wrong with people?! When we had been in kindergarten [vampires age till 18, I slipped blood in her drink, (I remember that day, she asked if I had anything to drink and I said "Ya" and handed her my blood. She didn't seem to notice. Therefore she stopped aging, but shes not a vampire)] a bully had pushed her off the monkey bars and she fell, quite a distance back then. I caught her, then beat the kid to a pulp. I felt a tap on my shoulder. "Thank you." She said and gave me a hug. I hugged her back and knew she was mine. I loved her. The principle came out and asked what had happened. She stood right in front of me and said "He" (pointing to the boy who pushed her) "pushed me off the monkey bars, and so some guy came up and beat him up and left. I don't know where he went." She just lied for me. Me. Of all people. The principle asked her, believing her "Do you know what he looked like?" "No, he had a mask thingy on and I couldn't see his face." She just flat out lied again. She must watch the news, because supposedly there is a man on the loose that has done things similar to this and looked like she described. "OK. Well I want you guys to stay inside now OK?" The principle asked. "OK." She answered. She grabbed my hand and pulled me inside. She pulled me aside and said "This is our secret, no one can know. K?" "K." She nodded her head seriously like an adult and ran off to the classroom. She was fast! I heard her "Sorry Mrs.Ember, we got caught up outside." "Don't worry, the principle told me. It's OK." I came in slowly after her. I wish she was mine, well technically she is, but you know what I mean. *Sigh* Another Valentines Day without her. "Hey what all the doom and gloom for bro?" Alec said (my brother). "When am I not?" I muttered, going up to my room. I want her, and only her.

Juliana's P.O.V.

I slowly got dressed and went to bed, alone, again. He left to go out with his buddies or something. I soon fell asleep, tears going down my face. Tomorrow was the day. My death. I had already written my will. To a guy I haven't seen since kindergarten. Thane Kain. I give him everything I own, and I singed it "This is our secret, no one can know."Death will be coming for me soon, and I welcome him. I welcome death, for he has not let me come yet and I want to. I want to end the physical and emotional pain once and for all. All I have these days are flashbacks of bad memory's that should has never reappeared. Those were my worst. Kids in the hallways of my college threw knives at me and told me to die. Some threw empty pill bottles and told me to go die. These are people I had never talked to or met. I just wished to die, every year of my life, and tomorrow was the end. The final end. My hero wouldn't be there this time. I dreamed of my college years. I had been walking to my class when a girl came at me with a knife. I had never met, seen, or even spoken to this girl and she said "Go die bitch! Nobody needs you around!" and threw the knife at me. I hit the ground. This continued all thought college. I hate my life, and it was time things changed, and boy oh boy would they.

I rode in the elevator and every second felt like an hour.As I finally reached, the top floor I had no doubts. I was sure. Rid the world of me. End my pain and suffering. End me. I took the stairs to the roof.I slowly walked to the edge and I stood there, on the edge,just my breathing my last breaths of air. I was ready.I watched from the edge of the 10 story building as people gathered. One person pointed, another called 911, and yet another, and another came, soon the crowd was hundreds of people it seemed. Police came and all that crap, but I was not afraid, I had wanted to die, and NOT be saved, for so long I wished to die. "Miss! Come down from there!" I herd one yell with an amplifier thing. I did not want to be saved, I shall not be saved. I took a deep breath, but heard a voice,Eric's voice "Juliana! Wait! You don't know what your doing!" I laughed. "Oh. I know more than you." Of course I knew. I had always known. I had always known. I had found out that Eric was cheating on me and that he told his girlfriend he didn't love me it was just for money. So I really was just a piece of trash no one loved. But I loved Thane Kain and hopefully he loved me too, or I would die. I heard in the background "Let me go! I gotta save her!" "That's our job." I whispered, but I knew they could hear " too late" and fell, fell in bliss, waiting for the end, but it never came. "Hello secret." I gasped. Him. Thane. My kindergarten hero. My one love. I may have not seemed to love him, but it's weird he was always there when I needed him. Whenever I went on vacation to get away he was there to comfort me. To love me. He always had love shining in his eyes. That was the only way I knew what love is. Is from his eyes.I opened my eyes and was immediately dizzy. Everything was going by so fast. "Close your eyes." I did as I was told and immediately felt better. I had eventually fallen asleep, I just hoped I didn't have to go home, they would just lock me up in the loony bin. Enough talk, just sleep.

Thane's P.O.V.

I was walking past her apartment, when I saw the crowd. I moved passed them, and saw her breathing in the morning air, and then falling, falling so fast, but she looked peaceful for some reason. I reacted without thinking. I ran as fast as I could, caught her and ran. "Hello secret." I said. She was always a secret. I heard her gasp. I saw her open her beautiful eyes, and saw she was dizzy. "Close your eyes." I murmured. She did. She was always so beautiful. She was mine. Mine and mine alone now. I slowly slipped into
