Lita stood frozen, ice cream in hand, her expression void of emotion as she noticed him. There he sat in the corner of the ice cream store, a radiant smile on his face as he gazed at the girl before him.
A surge of longing and jealousy swept through Lita, a feeling she desperately tried to suppress. It wasn't her he was looking at with such warmth; it was his beautiful girlfriend. As much as Lita wished to dismiss the twinge of hurt and jealousy, it lingered beneath the surface.
"You gotta be kidding me—" Jacob's voice cut through, and he followed Lita's gaze. Wrapping an arm around her, he gently turned her away from the couple, guiding her to their own table.
"Just ignore him," Lita muttered to herself, but the ache in her chest made it easier said than done.
"Are you alright?" Quil asked, his usually light tone replaced with a more serious note.
"Never been better," Lita replied, the words leaving her lips with a forced cheerfulness that didn't quite match the turmoil within.
Lita's eyes widened in sync with Paul's as she watched Jade rise from her table and make her way over to theirs.
