Chapter 18 (Just friends)

"Oh really Alison? Even Stefen here was talking about you. He was wondering where you were," Jasmine spoke looking all frustrated but with a fake smile as if she'd kill Alison just by glaring at her. Stefen was speechless hearing Jazz act weird all of a sudden.

Caleb had a question mark written all over his face too. He never heard a word come out of Stefen's mouth about Alison. So, what was Jasmine taking about?

"Really Stef? You were missing me so much? I missed you too baby," Alison finished her words and kissed his cheeks again replacing the previous one she gave Stefen when they greeted each other. This was it for Jasmine to control.

Does this girl have a contract with the god or what that she'd die if she didn't kiss Stefen after every 1 hour? And baby? Did no one ever teach her that baby is the term used a for young CHILD not a young MAN? Jasmine's soul was cursing Alice.

"When's your birthday Alison," Jasmine asked.

"Why?" Alison asked with her fake accent, looking up not wanting to move her head from his shoulder.

"So that I can gift you a dozen of lipsticks since you have the habit of kissing guys' cheeks every now and then I'm sure you must run out of it often," Caleb choked on his drink and Stefen's eyes widened in shock after hearing what Jasmine said, all in one go.

An internal weird satisfaction was there in his heart.

"You bloody bi***," Alison shouted finally leaving Stefen and tapping her foot in anger.

"If cursing would make a person great then believe me I've piles of ill words roaming around my head right now. And if I start spitting it all out on you right now, it won't take more than a minute for blood to ooze out from those filthy little ears of yours," Jasmine gulped down all her coke and stood up and walked away leaving Alison more frustrated than ever and the boys still in shock of what just happened.

"That bloody psychopath. What does she even think of herself? And does Stefen literally have no problem with her seducing him so openly or is he dumb..." Jazz was standing alone in the balcony enraged at everything that happened.

"OH MY FREAKING GOD... What have I done?" Jasmine covered her mouth as realization hit her. "What did I just do now?" she recalled everything that she'd just done inside. "One moment I was just thinking of those words and the next moment I said it out loud. What's wrong with your brain Jazz?... Nononono I didn't do that. I just embarrassed myself in front of everyone. What had GOTTEN into me? Why was I acting like that all of a sudden? Hell Jazz, the only way out is to now jump from this balcony," she said looking down to check the height. "That Jack jacka**, who told him to buy an apartment that's at this height? It must be just two floors below heaven. What if I die jumping from this height? Mindless idiot."

"Are you done talking to yourself or should I come back later?" A male voice came from behind where Jasmine stood.

"Yeah come back later," she replied instantly not looking back but in the matter of seconds her eyes widened as she recognized the voice and slowly turned her head to see the person, praying for that person to not be the one she was thinking of. Nononono.

"You?" She sounded disappointed. He was probably the last person she wanted to see that moment.

"So, can I know what you were talking about?" Stefen came closer and turned around, his hands resting on the metal railing behind him as he faced towards Jasmine.

"Nothing that you should know of," she kept a straight face and turned to re-enter the apartment but she was stopped by a strong yet soft hand and was pulled back. She dashed on him, her arms rested on his chest as he rested his on her waist. She didn't dare to face him so she just lowered her eyes and stood still.

"I want you to listen to this carefully Jazz."

Jasmine just nodded her head, still lowering her lashes.

"Alison and I are just friends. Our fathers know each other, they do business together so I just can't shut her but trust me I don't see her as anything more than a friend nor will I ever." He said with seriousness and truthfulness visible in those ocean blue eyes of his.

"Okay." She finally looked at him in his eyes, her heart had started to pump in a whole different and new pace. She had never felt her heart beat so fast but still it was relaxing her.

He blinked his eyes and removed his hands from her waist still not breaking the eye contact. Jasmine stepped back as well maintaining a good distance between them.

"I think we should go back in," she said more like whispered to him which he heard it anyway.

"Yeah we should." He nodded and walked in holding her hand and she didn't oppose it as well and followed him.
