My Best Friends Boyfriend

Chapter 15

It had been 2 days and I still hadn't gotten a reply from Jason. I was staring to get very annoyed at him. What have I even done? I start thinking. What if he wants to break up? I start getting very worried.

"Jess?" I hear my father call my name and he knocks on my door.

"Yea?" I respond as he the door opens and he steps in.

He looks annoyed.

"Jason is at the door." He states and I quickly get up from my bed and rush past him and down the stairs towards the door.

I see him. After 3 days of not seeing him I finally get to see him.

He has 2 day stubble on his chin and bags under his eyes. What has happened?

"Hey." I smile at him.
"Hey." He says, running a hand through his light hair.
"Do you wanna come inside?" I offer and he nods his head without saying a word as he follows me up to my room.


We are both sitting across from each other.

He looks upset.
"What's wrong?" I finally say and he looks up at me, his grey eyes glistening.
"Are you sure it's me that you want to be with?" He answers and that catches me off guard.
"What are you talking about?" I say not answering his stupid question. How dumb can he be if he can't see that I only want him?
"Do you have feelings for Skylar?" He responds not answering my question either.
"What? Where is this even coming from Jason?" I snap getting annoyed at his questions.
"The.. The other day when we were supposed to hang out.. I.. I saw you two on the beach." He finishes and closes his eyes tightly.
"You saw us on the beach and that's why you've completely shut me out for the past 2 days?!" I yell because I am so frustrated with him.
"Well you two looked really cosy from where I was standing!" He raises his voice too.
"Well you could have just asked me instead of assuming the worst! I like you and only you Jason. I can't believe you can't see that after everything we've been through!" I yell at him, and I hope the words get through to him.

He looks at me with his mouth open wide. "I..I." He tries to say something but he can't get the words out.
I sigh and lean back on the headboard of my bed.
"I just feel so stupid." He whispers.
"Yea well you are." I say coldly and I begin to regret it as I see hurt flash through his eyes.
"I guess I deserved that." He laughs not looking at me.

I move closer to him and take his hand in both of mine.

"This is probably one of the most stupidest fights I've ever had." I admit and I hear a low chuckle from him.

He looks up at me and buries his head in the crook of my shoulder.
"I'm so sorry Jess." I hear him whisper into my neck. His warm breath sending chills all over my body.

"I'm sorry too. I don't think it's a good idea for me to be around Skylar with him liking me." I laugh and Jason's head snaps up and he looks at me.

"Skylar likes you?" He repeats.
"Yes.." I swallow.
Jason looks angry.
"I thought I told you already? Its not a big deal anyways." I say trying to reassure him.
"And how do you know this exactly?" He continues to question me further.
"He told me." I answer truthfully.
"He told you? He must really like you because he never tells a girl how he feels." Jason looks surprised.
"Like I told you, it doesn't matter because I only want you." I say kissing him on the cheek, this brings a smile to his face and reveals that cute dimple I found out about the other night.

I can feel myself smiling to and I notice Jason staring at me. "Are we okay now?" He asks. "Yes! Of course we are. Now stop being silly and lets just pretend none of that stuff happened okay?" I smile as I go in to give him another kiss on the cheek. Jason's head turns though and my lips collide with his and this automatically brings butterflies to my stomach. I groan between kisses with him and eventually I realise how sexual that must sound to my dad if he can hear so I stop.

Jason and I hang out for a few more hours and then he has to go home but I promise him that I will come to his work tomorrow and see him so we can hang out again.


I wake up the next morning and take a quick shower before putting my bikini on and a yellow sun dress over it and then slipping into a pair of gladiator sandals. My blonde hair is still damp and becomes wavy since I haven't brushed it.

I am starving I think and check the time. It's reads 12:15pm so I think it's time for lunch. I can surprise Jason at his work and have lunch there and maybe do some shopping along the boardwalk when he's done, I think. Sounds like a good idea.


As I walk along the boardwalk to Jason's work, 'The Wave' I hear my name being called out.

"Jess!" The soft voice calls.
"Jess!" I hear the voice get louder and I turn around to see who it is.

I face a pair of piercing green eyes and my eyes widen.

It's Cassie.
