"I'll get it!" Jax jumps up from the back of the truck and into the passenger seat, grabbing the bag of snacks we had gotten. Ivy sits closer to me and twirls her blond hair around her finger, i look at her smiling.

"whats up with you and Jax?" she blushes and i smile brighter.

"we've gone on a couple dates.. he's the cutest. every time we hang out, i feel so magnifique..i really like him." i squeal and she laughs.

"that's good! he seems like a great guy, you guys are perfect together." she smiles and then purses her lips together.

"wheres Julian?" i look away from her immediately. she knows me too well and I'm practically transparent when I'm around her.

"i didn't wanna see him, i already am with him enough." she sighs.

"mon amour.. you like him. don't you see? don't go through with this Jade." i shake my head and smile when Jax comes back. i cannot like him, i have to do this.

Jax crawls next to ivy and wraps his arm around her shoulders, she leans her head on his chest and he pours candy in a bowl. i wrap myself in a blanket burrito and bite my cheeks so hard i taste blood, I've been hella anxious lately. if you haven't noticed, this job has gone on far too long- it needed to end weeks ago but nooo..'you have to wait Jade!' this is just what happens when a 22 year old and 24 year old have to spend every minute of every day together, it's just attraction. i can admit that right? yeah, it's just lust. he's hot, I'm hot. that's it, that explains all of the weird little moments. i can't have feelings for the guy I'm supposed to kill, that's not how this job works. and I'm sure as hell not gonna do all this for months and not get paid or not get my credit just because i wimped out and didn't kill the poor bastard. this entire situation is bullshit.

my thoughts are interrupted when i hear Jax squeal and the warm laugh of the cause of my fucking anxiety. i drop the popcorn out of my mouth and look at Ivy.

"Oh merde.." Ivy murmurs, looking at me with wide eyes.

"hi Jade." Julian says to me with red cheeks, i look him up and down. my heart is about to explode. i roll my eyes and look away, figuring that that's the best option to greet him. he jumps up on the truck and sits next to me, and i scoot away. he scoots closer to me but this time i push him back.

"yeah no, I'm not sitting by him." i look at Jax and Ivy with pleading eyes.

"I'll sit next to you." Ivy says, i shake my head.

"Ivy- asseyez-vous près de votre garçon..whatever. I'll tolerate sitting by it for a night." i say, referring to Julian. my plan is to be as cold and bitchy as fucking possible to terminate any gross feelings that might be there.

"I'll sit by you guys!" Jax smiles and wiggles his way in between me and Julian. Julian's been speechless this entire time and I'm honestly glad.
