Lie or die (Jason McCann x Reader)

Part 11

*Your pov.*

»Austin?«, Jason wonders standing up from his seat.

»You know each other?«, I ask while examining their intense eye contact.

»Yes, we do«, Jason explains not looking away from my brother,»Austin works-«

»I once worked in a coffee shop to make some more money for college and then I met Jason«, my big brother tells me, his gaze still focused on Jason. 

»Wait«, I say shaking my head lightly in confusion,»But why didn't you tell me? You saw him when he brought me home once.«

No one answers me and I sigh. Silence follows. It's like they are having an eye contact battle. 

»Hello?«, I wonder a bit pissed.

»I think it's time for Jason to go before dad sees him«, Austin replies and I widen my eyes.

»But-«

»No, Y/n«, Jason interrupts me,»I should really go now. We'll see us in class tomorrow.«

Lost in thoughts I watch him leave my room. 

What just happened?, I ask myself and sternly look at my brother.

»What have you done?«, I raise my voice and Austin closes the door so our parents wouldn't notice.

»You won't do anything with him again, understood?«, he shouts-whispers at me.

»Why?«, I wonder angrily.

»Because he's bad news«

»But why? What did he do?«, I ask curiously.

Suddenly Austin grabs my arm tightly and I gasp.

»Promise me you will keep yourself away from him«, he says desperately while staring directly in my eyes.

Completely surprised I just nod and he puts away his hand from my arm.

»Good night, Y/n«, Austin tells me and leaves. 

With wide eyes I sit on my bed and think about what just happened some minutes ago. I remember the kiss again and my stomach starts to send weird feelings through my body. I have to tell Jason that it was all a mistake. This shouldn't have happened. I mean it shouldn't, right?

*Jason's pov.*

I enter the already full classroom and instantly catch sight of Y/n. Nervously I start to walk towards her but unfortunately someone stops me.

»Hey, Jay«, I hear her annoying voice say and roll my eyes.

She laid one of her hands on my chest turning me around to face her.

»Hey, Clara«, I greet her as she presses her body closer to mine.

Honestly, I don't have anything against her. Clara is very pretty, smart and hot but she's a b-i-t-c-h. Every time I want to sleep with her she just does it. I mean that's good for me but she could have a better life. 

»Are you free tonight?«, she asks biting her lip.

You see what I mean?

»Uhm I-I«, I stutter and look at Y/n for a second then back to Clara,»I don't know yet.«

»We could do it in the car this time«, she whispers seductively in my ear and I feel her hand travel down to my pants but I stop her.

»I will call you if I have time«, I tell her as I see the teacher enter our classroom.

Shocked Clara looks at me and I give her a small smile before taking a seat at one of the tables in front of me. The whole lesson long I stare at Y/n.

Why can't I stop thinking about her?, I ask myself. Maybe because she knows things that no one ever really knew about me or because her parents might have been friends with my parents. 

After our classes I watch Y/N leave the room but stop her. 

»Hey«, I greet her.

She stares at me nervously and I frown.

»Jason, what happened yesterday was only a mistake«, she explains and I feel like someone just ripped out my heart,»It had to happen and it happened.«

I gulp down hard and try to focus on a proper response. But I can't help and feel like punching someone in the face.

»Yeah, you're right. I guess I only kissed you out of sympathy anyway«, I tell her and catch sight of Y/n's eyes watering up a bit. 

But it doesn't bother me. Angrily I walk out of the room and the whole day I try to stop thinking about her.

I don't even know why I am so attracted to her, I think to myself. When she told me kissing her was a mistake it hurt me so much and I can't explain why. 

Some hours later I arrive home. My parents are already there and prepared lunch.

»Mom? Dad?«, I ask.

»Yes, honey«, my mom answers while eating her self made pasta. 

My dad nods and continues reading something in the newspaper. 

»Who were Y/n's parents?«, I wonder and they both stare at me surprised.

I just couldn't resist asking them. If she doesn't want to talk then I have to speak with my parents about it.

»Her parents worked with us«, my mom replies calmly.

»In the same company you work in right now?«

»Yes«, my dad answers and I think about it. 

»I saw Austin today«, I tell them and take a bite from my food.

»Where?«, my mom wonders.

»At Y/n's house«, I explain and they look at me shocked.

»What?«

»Yeah, he's her brother«, I say and look at them.

»But her family died«, my dad tells me.

»She's adopted. Austin told me about his adopted sister«, my mom explains and starts to clean the dishes now.

»How?«, I wonder.

»He's working in our company«, she tells me.

»I know but why did he tell you? He never said anything to me«

»Baby, Austin doesn't really like you and you know that«, she starts to say,»I don't know why but I know that he trusts me.«

To be honest I know why he doesn't like me. Austin once caught me dealing with the serums my parents are creating in their company. Since then he hates me. 

But why didn't he tell Y/n about his job?, I ask myself. And why doesn't she know that she's adopted. All these questions are flying around in my head and in the exact same moment I get a call.

»Excuse me«, I tell my parents and go in my room. 

As I look at the screen I frown. First I don't want to pick up but then I bring back my confidence and answer the call. 

»Hello?«

»Jason, can you come here please? I need you«, I hear Y/n's soft voice say and immediately get ready.
