The Girl Who Can't Say No

Epilogue ♔

"I have to go mom!" I yelled hurriedly at my mother as I slipped on my black and white Converse and tied the shoelaces together.

"Okay, bye sweetie!"

"Let's make tomorrow a family night, capisce?"

"Sure dear, movie?"

"Let's vote later!"

"Okay, have fun on your date."

I couldn't help but roll my eyes. "Aren't you suppose to say the opposite?" I joked.

"With other guys, most likely. With Jaxson, he's a total sweetheart."

I rolled my eyes again, "Glad to know he made a good impression on you."

I heaved as I remember I wasn't even there when Jaxson first met my parents.

So basically, I was gone that day to do stuff and other errands. You know, for my job. And when I returned, completely drenched in sweat, Jaxson was sitting on my couch like he owned the place. And the next thing I know, mom was bringing him tea of all things! Apparently Jaxson turned up in my house to bring me back my sweater that I left accidentally in his car, and there you have it.

But that wasn't even the most mortifying thing, oh no, they had been chatting while I was gone.

I couldn't even imagine what they had been so animatedly conversing about.

Well, I had an idea actually, based on the baby photos of me that were on the dinner table.

And I definitely don't remember putting that horrid thing there.

But anyways, that's the end of the story.

I laugh, "Bye mom! Say hi to dad for me when he gets back from work!"

"I will!" My mom called out.

I rushed out the front door and right away, I detected Jaxson waiting for me by his fancy new car.

He held the door open for me smirking, and I went in the passenger seat while he went around and sat in the driver's side.

"Aren't you such a gentleman," I commented at his act.

"Well, there are perks," he winked, knowing exactly what he meant.

"Just move it Jax," I groaned, "where are we going anyways?"

"Somewhere," he smiled cheekily.

I sighed, "Why did I even bother?"

My thoughts wandered and I muttered something under my breath.

Jaxson looked at me questioningly and then out of nowhere, burst out laughing, which made me laugh as well.

"What was that?!" He asked with a brow raised.

"Nothing...?"

He continued to laugh at me, "Okay, you weirdo."

The ride was long, longer than all our other dates. Like a lot longer.

"Where are we going?! The curiosity is eating me up!" I said frustrated after sitting quietly in the car for a little more than an hour and a half.

"And satisfaction will bring it back," he stated humorously, "or something like that."

"Jax!"

"Soon, princess, soon."

"Didn't I tell you not to call me princess?!"

"You never told me why..."

I shot him my best glare, "Just don't."

"Fine, fine, whatever you want honey bear."
