A Cats Meow

Chapter 5

Kat's POV

I nod my head "Yeah go ahead" I said and he happily sits down. The waiter from before walks over holding a pitcher of what I believe was sweet tea. "Oh hello sir, um... can I get you something to drink?" Jack asked looking at the boy in front of me. I could practically see little sparks flashing at each other while they gave each other the death glare.

I shrunk back in my seat a bit and I guess Jack noticed. He shook his head "Princess your food will be out shortly" and with that he turned on his heel and walked away to other tables to refill drinks.

I looked back at the boy in front of me "I-I'm sorry... what was your name again?" I asked and he looked at me "Oh I'm sorry. It's Jasper." He replied with a kind smile. I smile back "weren't you the one who took me to the hospital? Yeah I remember now" I said with a small smile and looked back at him.

After a few minutes of silence my waiter came back carrying my food and set it down in front of me. The sweet smell of tomato soup filled my nose and made my mouth water. The small feeling of hunger exploded in my stomach. I looked at the waiter and smiled happily "thank you so much" I didn't stutter once and my voice wasn't quiet. The power of food made me stronger (( XD ))

The waiter smiled back "Of course princess." We kept looking at each other for a minute until we were interrupted by someone clearing their throat. I snapped away from the gaze and looked over at Jackson. He gave me a 'really' face and I let a small blush creep onto the bridge of my nose to my cheeks.

The waiter, Jack, looked over at Jackson as well. He wasn't thrilled that he ruined the moment and asked "oh yes, what can I get for you" His voice was laced with annoyance and Jasper smirked "Ill have a coffee and an ice cream sundae"

The talk after that faded out of my brain as I dove into my soup. The hot soup filled me with joy as the warm soup went down my throat. I let out a little moan of delight which caused both boys to look back at me. I froze and looked at them with wide eyes.

"Your order has been taken sir" Jack once again left us and Jasper looked back at me "enjoying the soup are we?" he asked with a smirk. My face went red "Don't watch me eat" She scolded him and dipped the corner of the grilled cheese into the heavenly soup and took a small bite feeling self conscious.

Jasper just chuckled and a few minutes later a girl walked up with the ice cream he ordered and set it in front of him "There you go hun". Her face was lit up with joy and her country accent was showing threw.

He just smiled and took a spoon and dug in. We ate in silence due to quickly shoveling food into our mouths.

Jasper's POV

I kept eating and surprisingly finished my huge sundae before Kat could finish her soup. That waiter boy came back over and handed each of us a check to pay for our food. Kat was reaching for hers but before she could grab it I snatched it away and took mine as well. "wha? hey give that back. I need to pay" Kat whined in a little kid voice

"nah I got it. You must have just spent a fortune from the hospital earlier. You might as well let me do this for you" I said and she puffed out her cheeks "fine" I smiled and she gave up. I handed a card to the waiter and the two black books that had the receipts in them. He just nodded and walked away.

"Thank you" she quietly said from across the table. "of course. Anything to help out" I smile at her. The waiter soon returned and gave me my card back. I put it in my wallet and pulled out a slip of paper and a pen and wrote my phone number down. I quickly folded up the paper and said "well it was nice to see you, take care" while I handed her my number.

She looked at me questioningly but took the paper anyways. I waved a bye which she returned and I headed out. I let out a content sigh as I headed off deeper into town. "Crap. We have school tomorrow don't we" I mutter to myself and headed to a craft store. I needed a new journal and some pencils. Yay high school, the place where you lose a pencil practically every class period.

After I finally finished with all my shopping it was around 9 pm. I walked back to my house carrying all of my bags. The walk was pretty nice, it had gotten colder but it wasn't freezing. It felt great. I glanced around me occasionally and finally made it home. I unlocked the door and closed it behind me. I went to my kitchen and laid all my bags out across the table and put up food and materials I would need.

After I finished it was around 10:30 pm and I was exhausted. Doing my nightly check I made sure all the windows and doors were locked up and I headed to my room. I slowly made it up the stairs dragging my body along and I finally made it to my room. I opened the door and turned on the light. Everything was just how I had left it except for one thing.

On my bed there was a single note laying on my pillow. I walked over to the bed and slowly picked it up. The note read

Hello, you don't know me but I bet you want to, I have found out something intriguing about you, Is it true that you are in fact a hero? I saw you change that night. I have eyes all around and you should have finished the job you started. It's quite unlike you to let a guy go with just a few punches, you didn't even cause any major damage. Just a few bruises... I am ashamed for you masked hero.

But now, I understand that being a hero is some hush hush business, that is why I came to you. In order for me not to release your information to the world I demand one thing. But of course you won't find out about it now. That would be no fun and way too easy.

Until next time,
