My Evil Boy Toy

"Love, thank you for this house. Finally, I have a home." I whispered.

We were on the bed hugging each other after a few more rounds. I was exhausted but I was happy.

"You always have a home, Peggy. As long as we're together, everyday feels like home." He said while kissing me on top of my head.

Jayden really changed a lot. He was still a devil in bed but I actually liked it. He wasn't like a perfect prince or a boy next door type of guy. 

He was an evil type of guy who always yell at me and call me stupid. He's someone who's both gentle and rude. He shows his love on a totally different level.

I scooched closer to him and buried my face to his neck. I heard him chuckle while looking at the ceiling.

"Love, will you allow me to talk to that man?" I finally asked.

I was thinking about it for the past few days and have come to this decision. I know Jayden might disagree with it but I still wanted to ask his permission.

"You mean my other self?" He frowned.

I sighed and nodded. I was still in that position and didn't look at him.

"I don't know, love. It's dangerous." He answered.

I stood up and sat on the bed, looking at him.

"It's still you. I don't think you would hurt me. I trust you."

"Peggy, I know you trust me but I don't trust myself. What if I hurt you? I will live on having the guilt on my shoulders."

He was still staring at the ceiling when je answered.

"You won't. Please, love." I pleaded.

"No. I want you safe so please do not insist on talking to that guy."

I pouted and crossed my arms on my chest. He sat on the bed, facing me.

"Peggy, you haven't ask Alora about her demon right?" He asked, looking at me seriously.

"You mean her other self who didn't have a name? The one who Aliya told us before I left three years ago?" I curiously asked.

He nodded and continued. "Yes. Alora said she appeared in her dreams once but a few months after you left, she actually appeared. Did you know she almost killed Luke? She stabbed him twice. After that, Alora lost conciousness. She was asleep for two weeks. Luke was taken to the hospital and stayed there while Alora was confined in her room."

I was shocked to hear about it. No one actually told me but I guess I didn't ask them at all. I didn't even ask about what happened to my friends for the past three years.

The room Jayden talked about was the isolation room in Queen's. Three years ago, Luke asked Emily to design an isolation room for Alora. It was when Alora started hearing different voices in her head and at one time, hurt Luke by accident.

"I don't want it to happen to us. I have to know what the other me is capable of. I don't know when will I switch but I felt like he was always trying to take over me so when it happens, promise me you will run away from me. Go to Queen's and take Caden. But I was also planning to have my own isolation room here at home." He continued.

I couldn't answer him back. I was surprised from what happened to Luke and Alora so I understand why Jayden didn't agree with it. I suddenly felt scared of facing his other self. 

He was right. We don't know yet what his other personality can do. If he's like Camila who would only kill to protect Alora or if he's a cold blooded murderer, we don't know anything about him except for the fact that he wanted revenge.

I was startled when Jayden cupped my face, staring into my eyes.

"Love, can you promise me that you will go to Queen's if I switch?" He asked.

I don't really know if I could do that. I cannot leave him behind while he was suffering from his illness. But I know he wouldn't stop until I say yes.

"I will. I promise." I answered.

He pulled me into his arms and took a deep breath while embracing me tight.

"I'm sorry you have to go through this. I promise I will do everything to control him." He murmured.

I smiled at him and just nodded. I know he already has a lot on his shoulders, my father was one of them and now himself. I don't to add to his worries so I will agree with him for now.

I woke up from the warm hand that was touching my face. When I opened my eyes, Jayden was sitting on the bedside, smiling. He pointed at the balcony and I saw the food he prepared for us.

"I was supposed to cook for you. I'm the wife." I giggled.

"Hey, who said only women can cook and prepare breakfast? We are equal." He said while pulling me out in the balcony.

I sat down when he pulled the chair for me.

"So I can also work after I graduate from college?" I asked.

I took a sip of the jasmine tea he prepared and was surprised that it tasted really good.

"I told you I won't stop you from reaching your dreams. I'm here to support you. If you want to work, go ahead. Just don't exhaust yourself too much." He blinked.

My heart fluttered seeing his handsome face in the morning. Last night, we made a love a lot of times and I couldn't even remember how many times he said the words I love you. I curled my lips and slowly smiled while thinking of him. I didn't realize that I was staring at him, blushing.

"Love, if you look at me like that I might carry you in the bathroom so we could have another round." He teased.

I rolled my eyes while he laughed from my reaction. His laughter was like music to my ears and I hope that our happy moments together would never end.
