The Challenge

The Love Triangle

"...And STRIKE!" I heard Jeremy shouting energetically while we were passing by.

After me and Jason had got our drinks, he was more into actually drinking it down than asking me any questions about me or more about himself. I knew it had been a hot minute since I went on a date, but this was not at all what I thought it would be like.

Where was the romance? The touching? The feels? The whole fireworks? Instead, it was basic.

Now, that night I had with Sebastian at the rooftop movies was definitely more romantic than this and that wasn't even a date. Was there something really wrong with me?

I was determined to make some kind of progress with this. I had to. This was all I wanted. Right?

"Hey Jason! Uh...do you like bowling?" I asked shyly. He smiled and nodded.

"Oh yeah! Love it. Honestly, if I could spend a whole day doing so I would." He joked.

I giggled. That's more I like it.

"Well, what about a whole night? I've never played." I pointed out. He looked to me surprised.

"No way! Really? Why not?" He asked curiously. I shrugged and grinned.

"Usually my hands are pretty full with a lot of other things. I never really have time to kick back, relax, and have fun often as I'd like. So it's pretty nice I get to do so tonight. You in?" I then asked.

Just when he was about to answer though, we quickly saw London again at our booth now fanning herself due to the humid air inside here looking over her footage she had recorded so far.

Jason's eyes then perked up and turned to me, grabbing all the drinks from my hand and half nodded and half shook his head.

"Uh, maybe later if that's okay! Seems like you're sister is getting hot over there. I should take this to her." He said casually before rushing over there to her.

I sighed and smiled nodding. Maybe I should just give him my job if he was being more eager than I ever was. I knew she was going to ask for hers from me sometime soon, though I didn't count on her doing so.

I guess London was even more entertaining than I thought, or maybe he was trying to cater to her to impress me with how kind and nice he was to her vs. the other one.

I honestly didn't know. I didn't want to. Getting my heart and mind off of Sebastian, was a must. There was no way around it. It had to be done.

As I looked around and down to the bowling ball in front of me, I sadly smiled to myself before I heard a familiar voice behind me speak softly.

"I could teach you..." Sebastian then uttered.

I quickly jumped a little startled again and turned to him and shyly grinned.

He couldn't have picked a more perfect time to do show up. Something about seeing him for a while now always got me so excited in ways I was too scared to find out where it could take me.

"You really want to?" I asked shrugging timidly. He chuckled and walked up to me and nodded.

"Yeah, but ya know it's gonna cost ya." He jokingly answered like we always were to each other.

Definitely more pleasant mood than earlier.

"Oh yeah? What?" I asked in the same tone, crossing my arms.

"I would say a million dollars but since you don't have that...spending some kind of time with you tonight is even better." He told me firmly. I smiled and nodded longingly.
