Anthony's POV
Today was a day we are running the choreography for helpless and satisfied in costume. I get to dance with Jasmine. Not gonna say I'm excited but I do enjoy it.She arrived at rehearsal 5 minutes late which is unlike her. She's also more quiet than usual, not laughing so loud with Pippa and Renee. I decide to let her be, if she wanted to talk about something she would, I know not to push her too far, I don't want her to hate me.
We dance and I wait for my chance to say something, "how are you?" I ask, trying not to push too much.
"Great" she gives me a weak smile
"No but are you doing alright?" I worry for her.
"I'm fine" she forces more of a smile
"alright" I smile back at her, but I don't believe her.
We get to a part where I need to put my hand on her side and she tenses up, she looks uncomfortable. She wiggles so my hand slips a little lower towards her hip and her discomfort seems to be gone.
I smirk at her, "want my hands all over you?"
A smile begins to grow on her face, a real one but it quickly disappears. "Not in the mood right now Anthony"
"Something is not right with you today, you've barely even smiled and I want to see you smile" I say as I sit on the stairs, she stands in front of me for this part of the song.
She faked a smile, "there you go" she sounds annoyed.
"A real smile Jas, what happened between last night when we saw each other and today? You were so happy yesterday"
"Nothing, I'm fine now shut up" I let her be.
After doing helpless and satisfied, we ran through some other songs then went to our dressing rooms to get changed. I got changed as fast as I can so I could talk to Jasmine before She left without me.
I left my dressing room to see Renee and Pippa leaving their dressing room so that means Jasmine already left or she's still in there. I ran up to her dressing room and knocked on the door.
"Hold on" she said through the door so I waited.
A minute later she opens the door and rolls her eyes, "oh it's you"
"What? You're not happy to see me" I smile at her
"No, not really what do you want" she opens the door more so I could go in.
I stepped in to her dressing room, "just wanted to ask if you wanted to walk home with me" I decide not to continue our conversation from earlier.
"Isn't that what we do every night?" She reached for her hoodie that was laying across a chair.
"Yeah but I wasn't sure if you wanted to tonight" I said nervously.
"Why not? If you have plans you could just say that." she sighed
"No I don't, just thought you didn't like me anymore or something"
"No that's not true. You're my best friend and I love you, you know that. I'm just having a bad day" she tells me, lifting her arms to put in her hoodie.
With her arms up, her shirt lifted a little. I saw a huge bruise on her side. I grazed my hand over it and she jumped, quickly pulling down her shirt.
"Jas what is that" I ask.
"Nothing" she panicked.
"did he do that to you, I swear if he hurt you again" I felt myself tense up.
"No! It funny actually, today I left late and ran down the stairs but forgot something so I ran back up the stairs but I tripped and there was this person and I landed on their foot and got this huge bruise and today has just overall been a bad day"
Jasmines POV
I just lied to him again, I hated every time I lie to him, especially when I've thought up a story invade he asks. The truth was that I fell asleep on the couch last night and Brady didn't like that so he woke me up by kicking my side."Now that is funny" he believed me.
"It was actually embarrassing but yeah funny" I started thinking, he's very cute when he's worried about me, he's cute all the time.
"Even better. But I actually was worried about you, are you sure he's not hitting you anymore" I found myself holding my breath.
I step closer to him, still holding my breath. I could feel his breath on me and I smiled.
"You know, you're really hot when you're worried about me" I breath out, barely a whisper. It just occurred to me why I hate him. It's because I love him and I hated that. Ya I know I've said I love him out loud, to him, but that was always as a friend. Right now my thoughts are different, I'm so in love with him.
"What?" He chuckled.
"Fuck it" I smash my lips on to his, pushing him against the door, closing it.
I had him against the door, I was leaning on him and I moved my hand to lock the door. Our lips had only separated for seconds for air. I felt my whole body heat up the moment my lips reached his. My kiss was angry and I wanted more.
"Wait Jas stop" I thought I made a huge mistake, he doesn't like me at all. He pulled away but kissed me once more, a short sweet kiss for the reason I guess was for one last time because of what he was about to say, "as much as I'd love to continue this, you have a boyfriend we can't do this"
