A Highschool Cliche.

Chapter 34.

We were driving back from Sam's place and i was on cloud 9 after meeting Chloe.

We had a really long conversation about how we can do alot of stuff together and we could be a great duo of cute and hot.

I swing side by side in the passenger seat like a little kid who just had a successful trip.

I was so excited that i completely forgot about Jason who sat driving the car that he asked someone to bring so Sam doesn't have to drive us back.

I was happily imagining all the things Chloe told me about while Jason continuosly glanced at me from time to time with a worried expression.

"Hey is everything okay?" He questioned after a while of driving in silence.

"Yeah why?" I asked curious as to why everything will not be alright.

"No i was just worried that maybe.... Maybe you would feel uncomfortable because of me and Chloe being ex" as soon as he mentions it i was reminded of all the feelings i pushed behind to focus on Sam and Chloe.

I sighed as all my insecurities flooded back in.

"It's okay. I mean look at those two they look so happy together i wouldn't change a thing about it" i smiled as i remembered their moments together.

"But still.....i just wanted to make sure that you were okay" he spoke as his eyes flickered between the road and me.

"I am not completely fine, i want to be honest with you about it" i laughed as a little pain was felt in my heart.

"I understand" he spoke without glancing at me this time.

"I don't hate her, I don't hate Chloe and i am not jealous of her either. She is beautiful inside-out and you won't believe but I'm thrilled to be able to be her friend. Do you know she told me about so many stuff that she wants to do with me like girls night out and she also mentioned a party where she goes once in a while but she says it's too boring but it would be fun with me" i giggle at the thought of her telling me about it, how it was so clear through her expressions.

Jason lets out a small chuckle as he looks at me jumping up and down excited while sharing everything.

"Well, i am glad you enjoyed. But are you telling me you are not even a little jealous?" He tried give a cute expression while sticking out his lower lip a little and looking at me with big eyes.

"No." I said and turned my face forward.

He looked baffled by my nonchalant attitude i observe him glancing sideways.

"Seriously not even a little bit!" He states

I don't react to him and just stare outside the window.

"Come on Women! Tell me you are jealous over your man atleast a little bit!" He sighs dramatically and i hold back my laugh.

I laugh out loud as his expression becomes more confused and upset.

Catching my breath after laughing i finally spoke getting serious, " I'm not exactly jealous, i just feel.... I feel a little.... insecure"

"Insecure? About what?" He questioned getting curious.

" I'm sorry i know it's all in the past and i don't want to bring the past between us but... You have been with so many women and honestly I'm not jealous of anyone of them instead i feel like..... Like inexperienced, self conscious.... insecure, ugly I don't know!" I sighed and closed my eyes not meeting his eyes at all.

I know it's stupid to have all these thoughts but I can't seem to help it. I am disappointed in myself maybe i am even letting Jason down by having such negative thoughts.

He abruptly stops the car and i glance his way. He clutched the staring wheel tightly, i can see his knuckles turning a shade of pink as he deeply breathed in and out, his eyes were closed shut as well.

"Jas..." I couldn't complete my sentence as he suddenly turned to my side undoing his seat belt and held my cheek gently getting close enough to feel his breath on my face, his one hand was still on the staring wheel.

"Don't" he whispered before taking my lips against his.

He gently caressed my cheek with his thumb while moving his lips against mine in a gentle manner.

Breaking apart after a short while, our forehead lightly touching he spoke, " don't ever say that, alright!" He stated in a stern yet caring tone.

I lightly nodded as he turned facing forward, clutching the staring wheel with both hand again as he started the engine.

After a while i started to notice that the way we were heading at was not to my apartment building.

"Where are we going?" I asked staring out the window trying to make out whether i can recognise anything in our surroundings.

"To my house" Jason mentioned in a straight tone.

My head turned in shock as he stated that.

"What? Why!" The anxious voice in me started taking control.

Seeing my panicked state he just smirked a little and again focused on the road. I stared at him in a baffled state till he finally decided to answer which by the way didn't help me calm down either.

"I'm gonna make sure you know just how much you don't need to be insecure about" he smiled.

He seemed excited and happy but my head was having wild imaginations of it's own and from that moment i couldn't stare at Jason at all.

What the hell was that suppose to mean?
Okay Irene it's alright no need to go in a fight mode. You are fine! There's no need to overthink at all!

While i was busy prepping my brain not go in a overdrive Jason took notice and laughing slightly, spoke, " get your mind out of the gutter!" He continued to chuckle, shaking his head a little staring at the road.

"I wasn't...." I tried to speak somethings to cover my embarrassment but it only came out as a mumble.

"Hey, if you wanna see me naked say so! I won't mind" he winked and again turned his laughing head to the road.

I know he must be enjoying as i was sure i turned into a red tomato. I turned my head pretending to be upset at him but my face said something else.
