I Can't Let You Go

Chapter 20

Jasmine's POV
"Jaz, you look amazing." Logan smiled as he picked me up from my house. We were going to the movies tonight. Lindy was back from Paris now, but she didn't want to come with us. She was busy unpacking.
"Thanks. You know what that makes me think of?" I asked, remembering that awesome moment.
"The fall dance?" Logan laughed, "That was the night when I officially realized I liked you. It actually kind of crossed my mind a couple days before when you were at my house and said that you would just want your boyfriend to be happy with what he was wearing. I thought that would be nice since Erin was so obsessed with matching. And then, I saw you at the dance and you looked great. The thing that really confirmed it was when I saw you dancing with Owen. I knew that second I wanted to be the one dancing with you. And that next morning, I was going to ask you out, but you were dating him. I was crushed."
"Really? I realized I liked you when we were fake dating over a year ago. At first, I found it kind of weird, but the longer we did, and this is what I told Garrett, the less it felt like we were pretending. I felt like it was real. And I tried to ask you out, but you were leaving with Jenna. I was very upset then." I admitted.
"Well, I'm glad we are together now." Logan grinned as I jumped on his back and he gave me a piggy-back-ride to his car.
"I couldn't be happier." I laughed as he ran around in circles with me on his back.
"Neither could I." He giggled. I never realized how happy one person could make me. He dropped me off in the passenger seat.
---------------------------------*-------------------------------
We sat down in our seats at the dark theater. Logan and I were sharing a soda and popcorn. He put his arm around me and I smiled and grabbed a piece of popcorn.
"Hey, Jaz, is that Delia and Garrett in front of us?" Logan looked at me in confusion.
"I think so!" I exclaimed. I tapped Delia's shoulder. They both screamed and jumped out of their seats. Popcorn came flying all over us.
"Hey, I caught a piece in my mouth!" Logan smiled.
"Hi, um, what are you guys doing here?" Garrett asked nervously.
"What does it seem like we're doing? Watching a movie!" I rolled my eyes and Logan and I both laughed.
"And why are you on a date?" Logan looked confused.
"Oh, it's not a date. We are just hanging out as friends. Really." Delia claimed.
"Then why didn't you tell us? We could have invited Lindy and then all 5 of us could have gone." I suggested.
"I don't know. Now I don't want to distract you guys from watching the movie..." Garrett began.
"Garrett! We know you guys kissed!" I shrieked. I was so annoyed with him right now. First he breaks Lindy's heart and then all he cares about is Delia!
"Yeah, and don't even try to deny it. We have a video on our phones." I nodded as Logan said that.
"That was a one time thing. There is nothing going on here." Delia stated.
"Okay, say what you want..." I muttered under my breath.
---------------------------------*-------------------------------
Logan drove me back to his house. Tonight all three of us were going to hang out. When I walked through the door, there Lindy was, studying, as usual.
"Oh, hey guys. How was the movie?" She asked.
"It was great!" I grinned.
"Cool. So, what do you guys want to do tonight?"
"It doesn't matter to me." Logan smiled.
"I don't care. What do you want to do?" I asked Lindy.
"Whatever." Logan and I sat down when Lindy spoke. I layed my head on Logan's shoulder and he put his arm around me.
"Hey, Linds, are you okay? You know, since the break up a couple days ago." I looked sad to show my sympathy.
"Yeah, I'm fine. I'm just waiting until the day that Delia and Garrett are together." Lindy said, although she was slightly hesitant.
"Yeah, about that...When we were at the movie, it turned out that Delia and Garrett were right in front of us! They claimed they weren't on a date, but we thought they were." Logan admitted.
"You know what? They probably went back to Garrett's house since that's closest to the movie theater. Are you guys thinking what I'm thinking? We should spy on them!" I exclaimed.
"I'm in!" Lindy laughed. We all grabbed our phones, a flashlight, and my Vera Bradley blanket. Once we were ready, we left and I was so excited.
"Jaz, get on my back." Logan giggled. He always gave me piggy-back-rides and it was so sweet. He treats me like a princess and he is always making me laugh 24/7. I really never thought I could love him as much as I do, but it seems like even way back in freshman year before we were dating, I love him more and more every day. I wrapped the blanket around me and him. The entire time we were all cracking jokes and I was dying in laughter.
"We have to stop laughing so hard when we get towards Garrett's house or they will hear us!" Lindy said, holding back a laugh.
"Yeah, I don't know how easy that will be." Logan attempted to hold back a giggle as well.
"You know, I have to admit. Logan, you and Jasmine are pretty fun. I thought that tonight I would kind of be third-wheeling, but it's been awesome. And it definitely has taken my mind off of Garrett and all that drama." Lindy said as we turned the last corner before Garrett's house.
"Thanks. We'd like to say we are a power couple." Logan smiled and we fist bumped. Oh my goodness, I just love him!
"We are a beast couple." I laughed.
"Shh...we are one house from Garrett's!" Lindy whispered. I got off of Logan's back and we all huddled together in the grass in Garrett's side yard. In his living room, their curtains were up, and just as predicted, there was Delia and Garrett! Before we knew it, they kissed, and we giggling just like they were dating. I gave Lindy a side hug. I felt so bad for her. I wasn't quite sure if she was over him yet or not, but I wanted to make sure she knew I was there for her.
"Let's get going! They are looking out the window!" Logan shrieked. We grabbed the blanket and held it above our heads and ran for our lives. The entire time I was freaking out, worried that they would catch us and follow us back to Lindy and Logan's house. Once we got back to their home, we locked the door and let out a sigh of relief.
"Thank goodness." I sighed, "That was so scary!" We all sat down on the basement couch. Instantly, there was a knock on the door...
