I shouldn't love you

CHAPTER FOURTEEN

Asher

I haven't been able to get hold of Jenna since the ordeal at the café happened. 

Stephanie gave me her number, but I think she knows it's me because she hasn't been answering my calls. 

Today my brothers are coming over to help me get ideas on how to win back my girl. Stephanie told me not to go to their house unless I want her dad to shoot me so I'm fresh out of ideas. 

I have pizza and refreshments for the guys. I hear the doorbell ringing. My family are part of the approved people to enter the complex so there is no need for security to notify me when they arrive. They are the only ones who have unrestricted access. 

I open the door and I'm shocked to see dad standing with the guys on my front step. "Hey, guys come on in." I usher them inside. "Didn't know you were coming, dad," I smirk at my father.

"Yeah, he was at my house when you called, and he wanted to tag along," Mickey says. We settle around the sitting room and wait for the pizza. "So why did you call us over brother?" Mickey asks.

"Yeah, it sounded like quite the emergency on the phone." This comes from Ethan, the little sucker.

"Okay, you all know the gist of what happened, well except for dad." 

He shakes his head and then says, "Oh I know all of it." I look at Mickey, the little traitor and I give him a glare for good measure.

"Okay well, since we are all in the loop." I look at Mickey for a few extra seconds so that he knows he broke the bro code and he just rolls his eyes at me. "I want to know how I can get her to talk to me and listen. She thinks we betrayed her and that is definitely a point against me if I'm looking at being her anything." I say.

"I get why she would be mad at her sister but why you?" Ethan voices what I have been thinking about for so long as well.

"I don't know...wait at the café she said something that made it sound like she fell for me." and I'm just now remembering this.

"I would understand then why she would feel betrayed by you because she probably already has a picture of what kind of guy you were in her head and you proved her wrong," Mickey says.

"Then what do I do to make it right?"

"Woo her," Dad says as if I didn't know that, now it's my turn to roll my eyes. 

"Yeah, I know that, which is why I brought you guys over to help me brainstorm," I say to the group.

"Geez man, you're treating this like some business deal that you have to win. She's a girl and all she wants is to be happy, well at least that's what Tawni wants. She wants the romance and to know that you care." 

Jack is the only that has made sense since we sat down and started this conversation. The doorbell rings and I get up but start at Jack and put him in a headlock and ruffle his hair, "You are a star I could literally kiss you right now." Because he has just given me an idea.

"Kiss, kiss, kiss." Ethan the doofus says. 

I pay for the pizza and place it in front of the guys with plates that nobody uses because they want to dirty my house. The rest of the day is chilled, we relax and watch some sports on tv, after brainstorming ideas of course.

Since last week when I had the guys over for a brainstorming session, I've taken to sending gifts to Jenna's house every day, which means I've sent four gifts already. 

On the first day, I sent her a pixie figurine and a note that basically told her that the first time I saw her I was reminded of a pixie. 

On the second day, I sent her a bracelet with one charm and asked if I can be her prince charming, cheesy I know but what's a guy gotta do when the girl of his dreams won't give him the time of day?
