I grab my drink from the counter and make my way back to the cafe booth, my eyes glued to my phone screen
I sit down and laugh from the texts I'm receiving
"You're back!" Ace grins sitting across from me
"Mhm" I murmur, not paying attention.
"Where's my drink?" His light tone simmers down.
I look up for a split second "oh I think I forgot it" looking back into my phone.
He sighs.
Distracted by the device in my hand I laugh again.
"Who's making you laugh?" Ace growls across from me in the booth.
My head whips up at his sudden anger
"It's no one"
"Cassedy" He leaned on the table, his eyes staring into mine.
"It's this kid named Jason..he wanted to take me on a date so we were just talking"
His shoulders sank.
"A date..?" He whispered. His head hung and his breaths came out slow.
The emotion he had was different from what I was used to. It wasn't jealous..and he wasn't angry at all. It looked like he was sad.
"Are you okay?" I rest my phone down softly.
He shook his head, looking as if his confidence has gone down 95%.
He's never been like this before he's usually the angry jealous type.
"Don't go" he says
"What?" I sit up at his voice
"I said don't go. Don't go on that date" he looks up at me.
"No..what? You can't tell me what to do" I stand up and my voice projects unintentionally.
"Cassedy, I'm trying to tell you what's best for you. Jason--" his voice raises a little but not to the same level mine was at.
"No you just don't want me to be with anyone but you"
"That's..thats partly true but I'm telling you. Jason isn't a good guy" his voice booms at Jason's name.
"You're lying!" I protested
"I'm not. I just, I want you to be safe!" Ace stands up and you can sense his anger growing.
"That is a lie! Jason is sweet and shy. He wouldn't hurt a fly" I feel my voice strain from yelling.
"You don't know him like I do Cassedy!" His arms flex from the anger. "He treats girls horrible! One after the other everyday! He just throws them away!"
"YEAH LIKE YOU DON'T!" I shout. Drawing attention from everyone in the cafe
"No!" He yells, "I would never treat a girl like that! I don't use girls!" He sighs "You should know that" he says the last part low but I still heard him.
"I'm just trying to keep you safe" his voice cracks at 'safe'
"I don't need your help" I glare at him and shut the cafe door behind me.
