Pomni X Jax - Crazy Love.

Chp 4: Digging In.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU GOT FIRED!?

Jax covering his eyes tightly
Geez! Don't need to yell. But as I said, I got fired. And EnderCatTheSimp you want more, well you-

Stop talking to yourself! Pomni yelled What happened!? Why did you get-
Jax quickly leaned in close to Pomni's face, making her go quiet
What was that now? Are you raising your voice at me? He mockingly asked

Y-yeah, I'm only raising my voice because I'm worried about you.
Jax folded his arm, smiling Really? Worried? About me? Already? Did I already get that close to you?

W-what!? No! She said as her face turned red I'm just being a good friend and making sure you're okay!
Are you sure that it's only because you're a friend? I mean I don't want to jump to conclusions and assume that-

Don't joke like that! And not now of all times! I still need to know! What happened? How did you loss your job! You worked their for 2 years, right!? It has to be an explanation!
She said

Well... The boss said I couldn't say the things I said to him in the tone I wanted to say, so he let me go. He said nonchalantly
What!? That's not fair! She said as she stomped her foot on the floor
He can't just do that!

And yet, I'm here and unemployed.
He say down on the couch But it could be worse, now I just need to find a new one, shouldn't take no more than a week or so.

Why!? Why are you so nonchalant about this!? She asked desperately Aren't you upset!? Mad!? Hurt!?

Heh, not at all. I go on with my life like everybody else, don't sweat the small stuff. Honestly, I just don't let the lame and negative stuff get to me, I have more important things to worry about, such as my life! He started

You seriously look through life like that!? Really!? She asked
Uh... Yeah? What's the problem with that?
Jax asked
Are you serious!? So how long have you been doing that?!

Eh... About 5 years... Was is it 5- yeah, it was 5. He said to himself out loud
5 YEARS!? Why!? Why would you do that!?

Just something I like to do, okay? He said as he stood up, he walked to the door Anyway, imma take a walk for a bit, alright? I'll be back in a few.

You're hiding your pain, aren't you

He stopped his arms as he went to grab the door knob

You... You must've been went through something traumatic, making you smile all the time, just so you don't show your true feelings. I-i don't know what happened but I want us to talk about it so we can understand each other. If we talk... Maybe you can-

Jax let out a chuckle, stopping Pomni.
Ya know... In this day and time, a guy expressing his hidden feelings and emotions to a woman just so she can understand him makes him look less and less of a man in her eyes.

W-what!? Why would I do-

And women are known for throwing a man's pain and struggle and past right back at him.
Jax turned to face Pomni, he slowly walked towards her, making her back up
Not to mention, you talking about my past? What about you, huh? I know your life must've had so much crap in! He said with slight aggression in his tone
Go on... Spill the beans!

Pomni fell to the floor, back shuffling away from Jax

J-jax! Y-you're scaring me! She said with fear trembling in her voice. Jax stopped in place. Chuckling to himself, confusing Pomni

Sorry about that kid, I didn't mean to scare ya, I just wanted to mess with ya for a bit. Jax said jokingly M-mess with me? She asked. Jax nodded with a smug ass smile on his face
Come on, did you really think I was gonna hurt you? Spoilers, I don't hurt women.

Jax lifted up Pomni with quickness and pinned her against the wall
But when it comes to you~ I'll happily make an exception~

J-jax! Stop! This isn't the time for teasing!
Pomni said as turned her face away from Jax
Come on now, don't go hiding that adorable face of yours from me.
He placed his hand underneath her chin and made her look at him

See... Was that so hard?~ He chuckled playfully This is for giggles but I'll be the first to admit that jester suit of yours is very cute~

Pomni remained quiet as her face was beet red
Alright, that's enough teasing for one day.
I'm going to hop in the shower for a couple of hours.

Jax let go of Pomni, letting her drop to the floor, he walked to the bathroom.
Why... Why does he love to mess with me!?
Uuggghhhh! She groaned to herself

-3 Hours Later-

Pomni laying in bed reading a book Ugh... I need to use the bathroom.
She got out of bed wearing, walking into the hallway, as she walked closer, she hears something so faint.
Hey Jax? Are you okay?
'Maybe... Maybe I should look through the peephole? N-no! No! That's bad! That's creepy and perverted! I shouldn't! But... He's done showering... Right? I mean he wouldn't wait hours to mess with me, right?

Slowly, she looked through the peephole, and suddenly her eye widened as she saw Jax's eye. Scared, she yelled as she fell against the hallway wall. Jax opened the door, revealing himself to be fully clothed

Well, well, well, who would've guessed, Pomni here invading people's personal space and privacy!
Did I do a little too much Teasing and mess with your head?~ He asked as he leaned in closer

No! Pomni yelled What were you doing in the bathroom for so long!? She asked
Simply having alone time, of course. Jax responded

"Alone time?"
Pomni's head began to steam up as her face turned red. Making Jax bust out laughing

I see your mind stays in the gutter! He said jokingly
No it doesn't! Pomni quickly said as she stood up I just needed to use the bathroom!
She ran past Jax, going into the bathroom, she slammed the door.

Jax chuckled as he walked to the doorway of the bedroom, he placed his hand against the door dropping his head down. Jax closed his eyes, taking him back years ago with him walking to the break room door
Come on man, don't take it personally, it's just a joke. Young Jax opened the door I bought us pizza so you can-
Young Jax looks into the break room of the circus, seeing legs dangling just above a knocked-over chair, his eyes widened with his face turned pale

"Am I funny now. Did I make you laugh with joy?"
