She's The Winning Piece

Chapter 40: "I can't find her"

RICK FETCHER'S POV
I see Ian smiling widely and I don't really understand why. The last time I saw him smile this much was when he talks about Jasmine to Kendra.

Yes, my Jasmine. I'll tell you the full story some other time. Yeah you might say I'm a bad brother but I had to.

His smiles are interrupted when my father calls him. I see him roll his eyes and I don't understand why dad still loves this boy more than me.

I tip toe to his room and I see his phone still on. I move closer to check his source of smiles and I see a text from Jasmine?

It was a text telling them to meet up at an alley or so. I take a picture of the text and leave the room before he gets back.

This boy is really fucking testing me.

***

I follow Ian to the alley but he didn't notice at all, dumb ass. I park at a far corner and use binoculars to see them. I see Ian lean in and kiss her.

What the fuck is going on here? First, he meets her at a venue of which she proposed without telling me.

And now, they're in each other faces. This is so messed up fr.

I drive my car to where they are and I come down with a very angry expression. Jasmine looks worried now as she breaks the kiss.

"What the fuck is going on here?" I ask as I move closer to them, grabbing Ian's shirt.

"Rick chill, just chill please. It's not what it actually looks like, I swear I can explain" she tries to calm me and I'm confused at what she has to explain.

"Explain what Jas? That I just caught my idiot brother kissing my girlfriend in a private place. How could you Jas? Please what else am I missing?" I yell.

I'm so mad at both of them especially Ian cause he did this intentionally. I hate him more now.

"Rick watch your mouth. Jasmine has a right to do whatever the fuck she wants to do. Maybe I even kissed her better than you've ever done" Ian grabs my shirt too, making things worse with his words.

How dare he? I'm this close to slapping him but I hold back.

"Ian don't say things like that. We're still together" she tell him and he growls.

"Look how Ian is talking to me without regard that what he did was wrong" I looks at her, annoyed.

She just removes my hand from Ian's shirt and removed Ian's shirt from mine. "Babe, calm down. Okay, let's get out of here and let me explain" I try to tell him.

"Explain whatever you want to here. Let this fool be present to hear" I punch Ian.

And with that, Ian throws a punch at me and we begin to fight. I've always wanted this.

I hear Jas telling us to stop but we don't pay attention or listen to her. But after sometime, I don't hear her anymore.

I push Ian off of me and ask, "Where's Jas?" "Jesus, she was here just now. What did you say to her?" Ian growls at me.

"We were in each other's faces. What could I have possibly said, uh?" I reply him. "Then call her, check if she went home" he orders me.

"Don't you order me. I'll call her cause she's my girlfriend" I roll my eyes at him and call Jasmine.

I hope she picks up.

***

I've been calling her since and it keeps going straight to voicemail. This is the eleventh time now.

"What's the problem?" he asks me. "She isn't answering. It keeps going to voicemail" I say, worried.

"Let me try. Try calling any of her friends" he tells me. I'll only listen to him cause of Jasmine's probably in trouble.

He calls her and I call Diana. "Hey boyfriend of the year" I hear her bubbly voice. "Uh hi Diana. Is Jasmine with you?" I ask her, tensed.

"No? What's the problem?" she asks me. "Well she's nowhere to be found. Are you sure she's not in school Diana? Please check" I say more tensed.

"I don't think so. I'm not in school now, I'll call Seren to help. Don't panic, we'll find her, okay?" she tells me.

"Okay. Call me back then" I hang up. "What's up?" I ask Ian. "Same thing, voicemail" he tells me.

Shit! Shit! This is our fault, if we had paid attention to her and stopped being dickheads. This wouldn't have happened.

Ring! Ring! I check my phone to see if it's Jasmine calling but the ringtone isn't from me but Ian.

He picks it up and I hope it's Jasmine. He ends the call some seconds after.

"Dad wants to see us now. He says it's very urgent" he says.

What's wrong now?

~ Um.. by the way. The next chapter would still be in Rick's POV. Just pointing that out though.
