Until We Meet Again

Chapter Five : The Misunderstanding

Chapter five : The Misunderstanding

Jason's POV

I didn't even mean to stay the whole day and night yesterday,but my mom just freaking left me! Plus her Aunt said stay and hey- I am not complaining! Joy was everything that I would look for in any girl. Even though I never really searched for someone,the people that I've gone out with asked me to go out with them,so I wasn't used to this at all. But none the less I wasn't blowing this one off.

This movie has been boreing me half way to death, my eyes were getting heavier and droopier by the second. I was almost there until my phone buzzed. Me,being me, I was being really lazy and wasn't going to get it at all. "Aren't you going to get that? It could be important" Joy said still really into the movie .

In my mind I said a string of choice words,but didn't let them leave my mouth,my Mom would have it out for me. Speaking of which, 'i need you @home. Asap' was what my mom had just texted me. As comfortable of a position as I was in , I had to leave. Granted I was very pissed with my mother I knew better than to disobey her,that's just not cool,especailly with my mother.

"Joy I got some bad news." I sighed,I didn't want to leave. I was having fun. Even though we weren't doing anything I was still enjoying myself.

"What is it?" She asked with all of her attention still engrossed into the telivison.

"Um,I have to go. My mama said that she needs me asap" I said mocking my mom.

"Well how are you getting home?" She asked suddenly and whiped her hair around her beaut-

"Hello? Jason? How were you getting home?" She asked again. "Oh um I have a car" I said as she suddenly jumped up and looked at me with wide eyes. "You have a car?!" She asked in a fairly high pitched voice. "Wow and yeah I do!" I said faking her voice. "Ohhh and you got droped off the last time cause you were with your mom right?" She asked with clear underatandment on her face. "Well what about the ice cream?" She asked with wide eyes. "Oh! Man uhhh moms going to have to wait twenty mintues."

When I was finished with the ice cream I was about to go when Joy asked ,"Can you PLEASE make some more pancakes?". At first I protested and then she pulled the face and it was horrible and and I just couldn't resist wanting to make pancakes for her. So after I was done with the pancakes I had added a surprise to the pancakes this time and and when I sat it down she looked at me and was very confused, "What does this mean" she asked.

On the plate I had five letters ; W Y B M G. I was already nervous about it and this misunderstandment was messing with my nerves slightly. So to further complicate this, I had to explain it to her. "It means 'will you be my girl friend' Joy" and as I said this relization was written all over her face. "Ohh! I get it now!" She said and dug into the pancakes. Cue my mental palm to the forehead. "Umm Joy I'm kinda asking would you me my girlfriend..." I said trailing off slightly ,looking at her face for full impact. This was all or nothing.

"Umm Jason I need to tell you something" she said putting her fork down slowly. I widend my eyes at that. 'Please don't say something weird like I was a guy or something' I thought to myself. "Okay then tell me" I said as calmly as I possibly could. "Well I kinda can't have a boyfriend. My parents don't think its right for me". My mouth visally dropped and she let out a heavy sigh. "That's why I flipped the matress when you were still here this morning and when you said my Aunt was cool about all of this."

"Well how old are you?" I asked after calming back down. " fifteen about to turn sixteen" she answered twisting her fingers together nervously. "Well I'm only sixteen so.. and I only have a car because my older brother used to have one." I said explaining this and then sitting back roughly. Then suddenly she took my hand whcih casused me to look up to her. "Is there anything I could do for you?" I asked still shocked. "Jason could you wait for me?" She asked me quietly. And to ruin the moment once again my phone buzzed again and I knew it was my mom telling me that she needed me to get to moving.

"I'm sorry I have to go" I muttered ,totally disreguarding her question. I was scared and I didn't want to tell her yes I would wait for her and then betray her.'great timing mom' was all I could think. "Just iin case we don't ever see each other again," she stood on her tip toes and kissed me. The kiss wasn't cute and romantic like all the others, it was a good bye kiss and to be honest it was scary.I didn't want to leave her yet. "Oooooo Jwason has cooties!" Kennedi screamed. But that still didn't stop me and Joy, we kissed for a second later and then I went and hugged Kennedi and she screamed, "Eww you have cooties!" She screamed again. "No I don't you silly girl! So give me a hug so I can put you down.". I said looking back at her st her. She looked at me for a second and then hugged my neck tightly "Are you leaving Jasie?" She asked,using my childhood nickname. "Yeah, but I'll be back" I said sadly."When?!" she asked happily. I looked uncertain for a moment then I looked back at Joy who looked beyond sad." Soon enough". I walked over to Joy and I was about to kiss her again but there was a child in the room so I went and hugged her tightly. "Bye Joy but it sure wont be our last I promise" I said and she hugged me again. " I hope". When I left I literally had missed her, I was never going to be able to live with this, 'im coming back for you Joy' I thought to myself.
