Still into You [GxG]

24.

In the middle of our conversation, Jace interrupted which I'm thankful because there's no words coming out other than staring to Jules questioning face.

"You're good to go. I told Ms. Campbell that you have therapy session after class" You know I'm thankful that she saved me from being stuck in my own tongue but also hate her for saying it out loud. Great, how about let everyone know about it? Ugh!

I looked back to Jules "Sorry again" before picking my bag in the stage and heading out to the parking where she parked her car.

The headlight lit up as she unlocked it.

"No Jade?" I asked

"Do you see her?" I'm not in the mood for her wittiness so I pulled open and sit "I'm not an Uber" she gestured the front seat but when did I comply especially to her?

"I didn't want to catch bacteria in your make-out spot" I say then watching buckling her seatbelt.

"But you're sitting on it" She says through the rearview mirror with that smirk "You know it's always in the back seat right? Because, you know it's hard when you do it here, the space is limited and—"

"Fine! Shut up. I don't want to hear your sex car story" I say then climbing into the front seat "God you're annoying" I muttered in irritation between buckling the seatbelt.

"Wow it's flattering to know that you consider me your God. I can show you how to kneel properly later" If she speaks one more witty rebuttals I'm gonna have to kill her here.

****

I sat in my usual spot while she's across with a clip board "You know I'm so much fine now. To end this because I know we both want to end our boring meeting. I talked to my brother about the frat night, in details. I saw how it broke him and dad. What else, my friends are now my friends again and earlier I made a move to reconcile with Jules, she's my closest friend among the three. So, I'm fine now and I don't need this anymore"

Kelly suits her name and that smile even says her name is Kelly. She's in her early thirties, attractive and has that figure and face that you can't call ugly.

"You did great Reese" she proudly says "But, why did you do it? Why did you feel like you had to forced yourself to be this new girl who never likes parties from the first place? Who are you hiding from Reese?" Her question felt like there's something stuck in my throat "Reese, there's no judgement in this room. Never feel threatened by me, I'm not the enemy here...but yourself"

I inhaled a deep breaths. This might be what my mom wants to find out. Of my sudden change. I'm not that stupid not to figure it out.

"I want to experience something new" I said in straight response.

"Because you're trying to run from the old one? I'm a friend Reese. Come back to me when you're ready to show this real Reese behind that facade" She even ended her statement in smile.

Grabbing my bag and walking out in her office but feeling the sudden anxiousness and then there she is sitting in the waiting room busy in her phone but it's like she has a sixth sense, Jace lift her head and smiled "Hey shorty"

And it makes me feel like everything inside me is tumbling.

"Let's stop in ice cream shop" she says

"Stop treating me like a kid" I retort.

Yet she lightly tap my head then wrapped her long arms in my shoulder and pulling with her "But your height is a kid size" her infamous line starts.

We drove in one of the best selling ice cream and it's the 7/11. A fucking convenience store because first and foremost Jade is here.

"Pick your ice cream" she said before walking to Jade in one of the table.

'Pick your ice cream' I mimic before heading to the batch freezer.

Of course it has to be the vanilla nothing else will beat this awesome best discovered flavor. I went to the cashier and unaware that Jace is behind to pay then goes back to Jade.

Jade smiled and waved at me and so I did returned her friendly gesture then wait for them to finish whatever they're discussing.

I'd been here for almost an hour waiting for them to finish talking over there. And the patience I packed in the bag is growing thinner.

Therefore, I can't wait any longer so standing up, I headed to them to say "I'm gonna go for Uber"

But Jace seemed too focus on her IPad while Jade is giving me a sorry smile between glancing to busy Jace.

As if she didn't hear me. Fine. Turning around and picking up my phone inside my pocket, ready to book an Uber, Jace grabbed my wrist and pulling me to sit beside her "15 minutes" she said in serious tone.

Being Reese, I have a lot of complains. "Guess what? I can go home alone" I say in sarcasm

She looked to me and noticing her baggy eyes, she look drained, tired and deadly serious "15 minutes Reese"

I'm sure she casted a spell for me to nod on that before she continues typing in her IPad.
