A Highschool Cliche.

Chapter 27.

1 week later

Ring! Ring! Ring!

I was walking out of the meeting hall when i heard my cell phone ring.

"Hello?" I answered.

"What is this i am hearing? Irene" a stern male voice spoke.

"Dad? What happened?" Curious because of his angry tone i questioned.

"You broke up with Dave! Why?" My father spoke in a angry tone.

"Because he cheated on me" i answered casually not letting my voice tell that it affected me.

"He did What?!" He spoke in surprise and i gave him a minute to register

"I am sure we can talk it out, Irene" hearing my father say this i stopped in my tracks.

Did he actually just said that!

"He has a fiance, father! How could you even suggest something like this!" Now i was furious at his ridiculous Idea.

"Calm down, Irene. It's not like he is married and i expect you to understand the situation better" he reasoned with me.

"Do you even hear yourself, father! Married or not he cheated on me and I am not negotiating anything!" With that i hung up the phone.

Frustrated i ran my fingers through my hair and took a deep breath to calm myself down.

Jason's POV

It has been a week since everything happened.

I tried to give Irene as much space and time as she needs, because god only knows i much i missed this women and i am not risking loosing her again.

I have been stubborn after she left without giving me a clear reason, i fell back to my old ways hooking up from women to women through college that's what I did but after seeing her again i realized the love i still hold for her, able to touch her again, be close to her, that was everything.

I am glad i have a family that supported me and helped me build a company otherwise i would just be a playboy i guess, ofcourse can't forget my friend Sam, now my stupid best friend. He maybe clingy at times but he helped me through alot not just with business but with everything.

I was sitting in my office, working when i saw Irene walk past my office, straight not even sparing a glance.

She looked disturbed, i saw her running her fingers through her curly brown hair and huffing out some air through her mouth.

I stood up and left my office to follow her.

"Miss Vermillion?" I called out in a professional tone since we were in the office building.

She didn't respond so i reached my hand to grab her by wrist.

"Irene? Are you listening?" I turned her around only to see her red eyes, like she has been crying.

"Oh hey Jason, um i mean Mr. Sterling, I'm sorry i didn't hear you" she tried to look around.

"It's okay" i quietly spoke.

"Is everything okay? Miss Vermillion?" I asked concerned by looking at her state.

"Yes everything is fantastic" she smiled hiding everything from flashing that smile and i decided to not push her instead changed the topic.

"Good. Well then how would you like to have dinner with me?" I asked her smiling.

Her eyes widen at the sudden invitation but she quickly composed herself.
