My Special Spirit

VII

Janessa's POV

I was exhausted. Band practice drained all my energy. I had to wear a long sleeve shirt to hide the bruises.

As I was walking to my band locker I was looking down at my phone. I suddenly bump into someone, guess who... Jayce.

"oh sorry, didn't see you there" trying to act all cool. Which I was not.

"No it's okay, I was meaning to speak with you" said Jayce.

We headed to the outside doors of the band Hall making our way to the patio.

I lift up my sleeves whenever I am nervous. His eyes instantly focus on my arm. I was lost until I look down at my arm and see my bruises.

"Are you okay? Is someone hurting you?" He asks with concern.

"Oh no, I was just playing with my brother and we play kinda rough. Boys, am I right?" It sounded so fake, I knew he wouldn't fall for that lie.

"Hey Jass, you can trust me."

"No seriosuly nothing is going on! So what did you need to talk about?" I crossed my fingers, hoping this conversation wont be about Mrytle.

Jayce's POV

We were outside the patio, looking at her blinded me. She is so beautiful... I get so nervous even looking at her!

"My cousins are having a party this weekend and I wanted to ask if you want to be my date?" I ask shyly.

"Date? Well that sounds great! I need to make some arrangements with my parents, but hopefully I can be your 'date'!" She giggles.

"Well just let me know alright? I would really like for you to be there."

"Me too Jay."

We hugged and said our goodbyes. She was so fragile and skinny. I am definitely going to marry this girl!
