Nothing is What it Seems (BVB Fanfiction)

Chapter 7:True Love Strikes Fast

(Jinxx's POV)

"How is the--how's your drink?" Midnight asked him.

"It's beautiful--"he answered, I was shocked to see Ashley so tongue tied, but then I saw her necklace glowing pink. I smirked silently. "I mean it's delicious." he mended himself. "You're beautiful." he added, as I saw blush creep up on his cheeks most likely out of embarrassment.

"Thank you." she said as she blushed and looked away from him. She glanced at him. "Do you want to open up a tab?" she asked, trying to sound professional again.

"Yes." Ashley answered as he glanced at her.

I couldn't help but laugh, they were so cute. They both looked at me.

"What's so funny, Jinxx?" Ashley asked as I saw the blush get darker.

"Nothing." I told him.

"Yeah, right...what is it?" he asked, the blush fading now.

I looked over at Midnight. "Excuse us, Josefine." I said.

She nodded as she went back to work, I then pulled him into a secluded room.

"Man what the hell?" Ashley yelled at me.

"Ash, what did you see?" I asked, ignoring the fact he yelled at me.

"What--?" he stopped his question, when he caught on to what I was asking.

"When you shook her hand, you saw something; didn't you?"

Ashley nodded as he remembered.

"What was it that you saw?"

"I-"He started. "I was like you...she and I were...married with kids."

I stared at him, as I remembered my mom telling me the same thing when I asked how she and dad meet.

"What?" he exclaimed, pulling me out of my thoughts. "it's the truth."

"I believe you."

"Y-you do?"

I laughed once, as I remembered I had said the same thing to CC. "Yeah." I answered. "It's what happens when a mystic meets their mortal true love." I continued. "remember what I told you about my parents?"

"Yeah."

"Same thing happened to them as it had happened to you." I said. "...and I have a feeling that CC will have the same experience."

"What about Jake and Andy?"

"They already have who they're supposed to be with."

Ashley looked away from me.

"Come on, lovebird, let's get back to the guys."

(CC's POV)

After some time, Jinxx came found Ashley and the two of them meet our waitress. Ash had started to come over to us but he stopped to introduce himself. He then jerk his hand away and stepped away from her as if she had punched him. Some words were spoken, then Jinxx laughed causing the two of them to look at him. After more words were exchanged, what happened next surprised the hell out of me. Jinxx pulled Ashley into a secluded room. It was some moments later that I saw them exiting the room and making their way over to us.

"What did you talk about?" I asked as I got up to let Jinxx in and they sat down at the table.

"Nothing..." Jinxx answered as he gave me 'ask me later' look. "important." he finished.

I looked over Ashley and he couldn't keep his eyes off of our waitress. He even had a smile on his face. I sighed as I continued drinking my drink. Once I finished, I got up and went over to the counter. Hoping that the bartender would talk to me.
