33. I don't want to loose u😞

JAYDEN'S POV

After mum had left I walked into the kitchen to prepare something for Hailey before she woke up. I pray I don't burn down this house tho. I began preparing scrambled eggs and toast bread and my mind wavered to what mum said.

How on earth am I even going to tell her I like her? I'm not even ready to be in a relationship. What if she turns me down if I eventually ask her out? What will happen if she turns me down? What will happen to my ego? It probably would be the first time in history to hear that Jayden Michaels was turned down by a girl!

So embarrassing!!!

"Jayden...." I heard Hailey's voice. What the hell is she doing in here? I felt my veins popping out.

"Leave!" I say in my usual cold voice. She looked confused and it pissed me off the more.

"I don't understand" she asked sincerely.

"What part of LEAVE don't you understand? Hailey just leave this place now!" I yelled at her and she ran out of the kitchen.

Shit!
I didn't mean to sound so harsh!
I obviously hurt her.

I just couldn't stand her being in here. Jace was asthmatic and he died in this kitchen.
What if something went wrong and she breaths her last, what will I do?
I can't bear loosing all the people I love.

Love?

Do I love her? What the hell is wrong with me? No one really knows about Jace except Mira and Andriano because we all grew up together. Speaking of Andriano, today is his birthday! How on earth can I forget?

I quickly set the table, Hailey wasn't anywhere around here. Shit!

Could she have really left?

I ran upstairs to my room and I see her standing in front of the window and staring outside. She is still putting on my clothes and it sent a warm feeling in me. She was perfect, the joggers was too long for her and the cardigan was big but still looked so good on her.

How can someone be this beautiful?

"Hailey.." I called and she turned to look at me. I could make up the map of dried tears on her face. I hate the fact that I made her cry. How do I start apologising? She's definitely not going to understand.

"I'm sorry" I say to her and she shrugged.

"No need for that. I'm used to it already, to you being all cold and harsh to me. So foolish of me to actually think we were cool" she muttered sadly and sat on the bed. I walked towards her and sat beside her staring at her face. She ignored my gaze and began to untangle her messy morning hair. Morning hair sure looked so hot on her.

"I'm sorry for what happened in there" I say to her and she stopped to look at me and went on with playing with the tip of her hair. I took her hand in mine and she met my gaze without saying a word. I love swimming in those ocean blue eyes. She broke my gaze and took her eyes back to her thigh.

"Seeing you in that kitchen reminded me of my brother. Actually he was my twin and we were Identical except for the fact that he was asthmatic and I was not. He had an attack in that kitchen one day and he died. When I saw you there I remembered your condition. I didn't want anything to go wrong. I didn't want to loose you Hailey" I say to her and her eyes were fixed to mine. They were warm and laced with compassion.

"I'm sorry for what happened to your brother" she said to me with a small smile and I nodded.

"Why not show me those cute dimples" I said to her with a grin and she smiled harder and it soon turned to soft giggles. The sound of her laughter was like music to my ears. I couldn't take my eyes off her even for a second and she soon stopped laughing and stared at me. She looked like she was thinking of what next to do.

She took me unawares when she wrapped her arms around me. I was stiff for some time before hugging her back. I just pray she doesn't hear the sound of my heart trying to erupt from my chest.

She broke the hug and I immediately missed her warmth. I touched her cheeks lightly and she smiled at me. Today must be a really blessed day cos she has been giving me her charming smiles lately.

"Thanks" I say to her and she smiled.

That smile was definitely my undoing.

She literally made my day today. I just feel the urge to kiss her, maybe a peck on the forehead but I'm so nervous. I've never been this nervous around a girl before.

"Food is ready!" I say to her with a smile and she mirrors it while standing from the bed.

"Your ankle is better now? I can help with a massage though" I say to her and she smiled.

"No need for that. I'm perfectly fine" she replied following me to the dining room. I watched her eat not taking my eyes off her for even a minute.

I know she feels uncomfortable under my gaze but I can't help it.

What are you doing to me Hailey!?

Awwwww!
Jayden's likes Hailey!

I'm glad he explained things to her tho and I'm forced to believe they're cool now!

Stay tuned for more interesting updates!
