The Unexpected One

Trying

Tara's POV

I came home and went straight to my phone. I texted Jason, "We need to talk." He instantly replied with, "oh really, how about we talk about you and Jackson because apparently he matters to you." I groan. I knew this would happen. I need to get Jason to trust me again. We had it so perfect until Jackson butted in. Why can't Jackson just get out of our business!

I text, "Jason, I can't stand Jackson. The only reason I held hands with him was because it was one of the blackmail dates and I punched him in the gut, and he got mad so I had to hold his hand so he wouldn't blurt. And also, after you ran off, I left him in the dust to run after you and try to explain, but you were already gone. I love you Jason, and if you don't love me right now, know that I love you and I will as long as we're together. I love you, I love you, I love you!" It takes Jason time to read it, and then he replies, "ok, I trust you. And yes I still love you you're so beautiful that I can't physically stop loving you, but one question. Why didn't you tell me about the blackmail date? And also, tell me everything you did. No cutting out anything, I can tell when you do."

Yay! He trusts me and loves me and thinks I'm beautiful. This is good. I quickly reply, "I didn't tell you because I didn't want to ruin your day. I didn't want you to be upset for me. I want you to stay happy, so I didn't tell you and I really regret that now."

"Fine, but tell me about the date. I want to know. And yes, I am implying this in a creepy overprotective boyfriend kind of way." He replies. I giggle. Jason is so cute and funny when he tries to be intimidating. I text Jason about the whole 'date' and don't exclude anything. Including the kiss.

Jason explodes at me through texts. There a lot of "I'm gonna get Jackson" and "Jackson is a complete idiot" and "I hate Jackson!"

"Calm down." I text. "I am just as mad as you are, I mean, I was the one being kissed." I add.

"Ok, can you send me a picture of you, I want to see your beautiful face." Jason texts. I blush hard. Jason thinks I'm so beautiful that he needs a picture of me. I love him so much. I poof up my hair and take a quick selfie. I send it to him. He sends the emoji of the person with heart eyes. He then sends the kissy face emoji and says, "You are so pretty. I love you so much." I blush again. Jason is too cute!

"Hey, can you send me a picture of you? I miss your face and hair and eyes. You are so hot." I text.

"Ok," he texts back. I can tell that he's blushing. Soon I'm greeted with Jason's handsome face. His cocoa brown hair, flipped perfectly across his forhead, his deep brown eyes that just melt your heart. His soft looking skin, it's just so perfect. I text the heart eyes emoji and text,"oh la la you, my friend, just melted my heart. So are so cute." I add a winky face emoji. Jason is perfecto for me. He is so handsome and perfect.

We text for another few hours and then I look at the clock. 9:15. I text a quick good night and pull on some pajamas. I then crawl under my covers and fall asleep.
