Changes

Chapter 5

Brian's POV

I receive a text from Jasmine telling me if she can come over. I respond to her and give her my address. I wonder what is so urgent that she must come over at 7pm to talk about. But with Jasmine, you can expect the least unexpected. A knock at the door tells me her presence and I unlock the door.

She looks completely pale in the face with a red mark that is swelling on her right cheek. That son of a bitch. He did not just slap her. She then runs up to me and I wrap my arms tightly around her back as she wraps her arms tightly around my neck. As great as this feels, I need to focus on her problem. I just can't believe she chose me to come to. Her eyes glisten and a single tear slips down onto her left cheek. I use the gentle pad of my thumb to slowly and carefully wipe away that one tear that could hold more hurt and sadness than a million tears ever could.

"Take a seat, you must be very cold." I say as I wrap a blanket tightly around her body. I take a seat next to her and she scoots a little closer. I get her hair out of her face and she smiles sweetly.

"Why did you come to me?" I ask. "I mean, why did you come to me after..this?"

"Because you're the only person who I trust." when she says that, my heart flutters. She blushes.

"Remember when you kissed me?" She quickly changes the subject.

"Yeah, that was a dumbass move." I admit. I flush a little.

"I regret leaving you there in the middle of the street. But I don't regret that kiss." She sweetly says as she places a gentle kiss on my cheek.

"I'm sorry." she says as she blushes.

"No, I see a different side to you." I continue, "A happy girl with a playful side and a beautiful heart. You try to hide it under the blackness, but you still shine bright like a diamond." I admit.

"Wow, we got a Romeo over here," she laughs and winks.

"Haha." I sarcastically say, hiding a small grin. Damn, this girl is driving me crazy, but I love it.

"Earth to Brian." She snaps her fingers.

"Nada." I remark and she laughs.

"Would you like to spend the night here?" I nervously ask, nervous for the answer.

"Sure, I have no where else to go." she shrugs.

"Okay, you can sleep in my bedroom and i'll sleep here on the couch." I say. I then receive a text message from my father.

We won't be home, we have an unexpected business trip. Be back Monday.

Fine.

God made this happen for a reason.

"Ugh.. no. You're sleeping in the room." she sleepily demands.

"Fine." I reply with a small smirk on my face.

We head to my bedroom and she instantly lays down on the bed. She takes off her shoes and puts them by the door.

"Do you have something I can wear?" she asks as she points to her black dusty clothing. I get a pair of checkered pajamas and pass them to her.

"What.. what are you doing?" I shiver as she slowly removes her tight jeans and belt. She is wearing black boy short panties. I can't help but stare at her perfectly tan legs. The way they slowly slip out of the jeans.

"I'm just changing." she smirks and licks her lips, trying to tempt me to go further. She quickly slips on my loose pajamas. She still looks absolutely divine in them. She suddenly looks much younger.

"I'm going to the restroom, don't worry i'll find it eventually." she says as she slips out of the bedroom and into the hallway.

I quickly change while she's gone. When she returns she is no longer wearing makeup. She looks much more beautiful without it. I don't know why girls wear it. She doesn't have to, she is perfect, all natural.

She removes some of the pillows and lays down on the soft comforter. I lay down some blankets on the floor and a pillow. I remove my shirt and lay down on the hard ground.

"Goodnight." I whisper.

"Goodnight." She replies back.

I wake up around midnight and I find Jasmine laying down next to me on the ground. She looks so peaceful while she's sleeping. I come closer to her and I pull her tighter to my body with my hand wrapped around her waist and she stirs.

I feel a kiss on my neck, during that peaceful and wonderful night.
