Chapter 52
Veronicas p.o.v

I look at the blond in front of me with bewilderment.

"Don't start this, please. I've had enough of these already." Toby groans.

Like he did last night.

I mentaly smacked my head on a wall. Not the time to think about an amazing night.

"Umm, Toby? Who's this?..." I whisper to him the blonde couldn't hear. "And why did she call me a..." I trailed my words. I didn't want to curse. I didn't want to get down on her level.

"Veronica this is Jasmine. Remember her?"

The memory from our first date came rushing back and I remembered the story that he told me about his best girl friend...Jasmine. She's older than him!? She looks 17! She can't be 18 or 19.

I silently nodded and bad scenarios came to mind.

What if he falls for her again now that she's back? Does she like him now? What if they get together and try to kill me?

Okay, maybe the last one was too much.

"Jasmine this is Veronica my-" Toby got caught of by Nate.

"Our friend." He gave me a smirk.

I narrowed my eyes at him...what?

Jasmine chuckled. "So, you guys replaced me with that? I feel sad that you did but I kind of pity you for who you got." She scoffed and walked around me. "Just look at her. Skinny arms, no muscle, some fat on the stomach-"

I was getting angrier by the second everytime she said one of my flaws.

She gasped. "Oh! And look at that...she even cuts herself!"

I hide my arms by hugging myself and look down at the ground. Who the hell does she think she is talking to me like this.

"How. Pathetic."

She was on the ground in seconds. I didn't know what came over me but as soon as that word left her mouth all that came to mind was my sister. Not me, but her.

I felt arms wrap around my waist and pull me up, away from Jasmine.

Dash helped her to get back up and she spit out blood while smirking at me and massaging her jaw. "That was a surprise. I'll give you that. But it doesn't change the fact that you're a pathetic person-"

"Jasmine that is enough." I hear Toby from besides. I look behind me and see that it was Nate who got me.

I wiggle out of his trap and fold my arms. Staring at Jasmine. Toby comes besides me and hugs me by the waist. As I see the surprise on Jasmines face I want to smirk to myself. But I didn't, of course.

"Veronica is my girlfriend and it would be nice of you if you would treat her with respect." His hold on me tighten.

"I'm sorry for...attacking you." I mumble in embarrassment and looked away .

Jasmine chuckled without any trace of humor in her tone. "This- I mean- she is your girlfriend?" she pointed her finger at me. "Wow." What surprised me the most was the smile on her face. A genuine smile. "I'm proud of you."

She walked towards me and I put my hands up in defence.

"What are you doing? I was just gonna give you a hug." She laughed.
