Love Story
Chapter 5
So I sneak out to the garden to see you
We keep quiet 'cause we're dead if they knew
So close your eyes
Escape this town for a little while
True to his word Billy Black sent Jacob to their country home the next morning. Jacob liked the house, it was smaller than the one he had just come from and had acres of rolling farm land around it. He often liked to take his horse and ride across the lands, it was the only time he had alone. Of course… the time he had alone was filled with thoughts of Edward. Two weeks had passed since he had last seen the other boy and that fact had him wondering if all the words the other had given him were just what his father said… a trick.
Jacob dismounted as he rode into the stable from his morning ride. He handed the reins over to a stable boy and gave him a smile of thanks before heading inside. Taking off his riding boots and standing them by the door he slipped into the kitchen and grabbed an apple from the bin. “Apple pie tonight?” He questioned the cook.
“If you don’t eat all my apples first!” The cook answered good naturedly. Jacob laughed and promised not to touch another until the pie that night. Heading into the main part of the house Jacob had just started up the stairs to his room when a servant called out to him.
“Master Jacob!” Jacob turned and looked.
“Yes?”
“A letter just came for you,” the servant said holding the letter out to him. Jacob took it and nodded his thanks before heading up to his room. Why would his father have sent him a letter? Throwing his apple core out the window Jacob fell back onto his bed and opened the letter. Expecting his father’s handwriting he was surprised at the neat, swirly writing that met his eyes.
Dear Jacob,
I apologize that this letter has taken so long to find you. I did not realize until you had already left that you never told me what town your country home is in, so I had to do some searching. I miss you greatly. The night we spent talking in the garden fills my every thought and I cannot wait until we are able to do it again. When I can get away without being missed I will come pay you a visit. We will have to be careful, both our families are very well known and if I am spotted and word got back to your father… well I am sure you know the reaction would not be good. I must go now but know that you are in my thoughts and I live for the days that we can be together again.
Love,
Edward
Jacob could not help it; he smiled and reread the letter again. Edward was going to come! It had not all been a trick, his father was wrong. Now he just had to wait… and tear this letter up. No one could know that Edward had sent him a letter. First Jacob tore the letter into pieces and then lit a candle and burned the torn pieces.
---
Two weeks later Jacob found himself woken in the middle of the night by a light tapping on his window. Yawning, he rubbed his eyes to get rid of the sleepy feeling and climbed out of bed. Looking out the window he did not see anything and was about to go back to bed when another pebble hit the window from his left. Quietly opening the window Jacob leaned out a bit and smiled widely when he saw it was Edward. It was Edward!
“Come down,” Edward whispered.
Jacob nodded and thought, the stairs leading to downstairs were very creaky and would surely wake someone if he tried to use them. Looking back out his window Jacob saw the wooden squares that the roses grew up… he had used it to sneak out before. Quickly changing Jacob climbed up onto the window ledge and started to reach for the rose wall.
“What are you doing?!” Edward hissed. “You will hurt yourself!”
“I’ve done this before, don’t worry about me,” Jacob replied grabbing the rose wall.
“Jacob!”
“Shhh! Do you want to wake everyone?” Jacob questioned, he made sure to keep his voice lowered as he slowly climbed down. Once he was close enough to the ground he jumped and Edward’s hands steadied him, even though it wasn’t needed.
“Don’t ever do that again,” Edward scolded.
“Were you worried?” Jacob asked with a smile. Edward just rolled his eyes and took Jacob’s hand.
“Where can we go?”
“There’s a small garden that way, anyone from the house will not be able to hear us if we go there,” Jacob answered. Edward nodded and led Jacob away from the house to the garden. Neither spoke until they were actually in the garden. When they were hidden behind a row of trees Edward pulled Jacob into his arms. Jacob smiled and melted into Edward’s warmth. “I can’t believe you came…”
“Anything for you… I missed you,” Edward murmured cupping his cheek. Jacob closed his eyes at the touch. If this could last for the rest of the night… for the rest of his life, he would be happy. It could never be that way but for now…for now he could escape in Edward’s arms.
