Chapter eight- confession

Jasmine's P.O.V.

I walked into the silent church. Only a few people were in the place for the scheduled confession. I held my purse tight as I sat down in a pew quietly waiting for me to be next. I turn my head to the person who let me turn mine is starting now.

I got up and walked down the aisle to the back of the church into the first booth available. It was the screened booths, I really didn't want to face father Tim rather he hears how bad I feel for my sin. He greets me in the name of the christ. "Father Tim it has been four days since my last confession," I tell him.

I could hear him give a deep sigh and hit his head against the booth. "Jasmine just to let you know not every little thing especially when it's not your fault you have to confess like I said it's great you come in to redeem yourself to the lord, you know you have to at least come here ounce a year," He explains.

I continued knowing how often I come to confession. Even my family thinks I'm overdoing it. "This boy Anthony Ramos, um he has a girlfriend and um I almost let him kiss me," I pour out.

"Jasmine, I told you that wasn't your fault, in fact, he should be here," He responds.

"I know but I almost let him," I continued.

"Okay well, your penance is one hail mary and talk it out with him," He responds.

I smile thankfully. "Thanks, father Tim," I respond.

"No, problem Jasmine, oh and coffee next week Thursday," He adds.

"Of course," I reply.

How am I exactly going to clear it up with Anthony?

Anthony's P.O.V.

Okay, I really don't know what came over me the other day. I guess I was just angry that Jasmine got some dudes number, he doesn't deserve her! I mean I don't like her just...-"Anthony!" Oak yelled passing the ball to me.

I catch the ball that almost hit my chest. I, Dav, and Oak are at the park playing basketball. I cut my why way through making it to the basket, I laughed when Oak realized what I just did. He squints at me, I'm pretty sure he was going to say fuck you but three giggles came from off of the left of us.

It's Pippa, Renee, and Jazzy jogging holding their water bottles. "Hey girls!" Oak yells to get their attention.

They all face us, I make 10-second eye contact with Jasmine (that's actually long for eye contact) "Hey guys!" Philipa shouts back.

"Wanna play!" Daveed yells.

I glare at Dav who smirked. "Sure!" Pippa accepts pulling the girls over with her.

The girls stop at the bench and take off their sweatshirts only wearing a sports bra. I watched Dav and Oak's eyes widen. I glare reminding them Renee is currently married and has kids and Philipa has a boyfriend who is one of my other closest friends, plus they both have girlfriends.

Jasmine cracked her knuckles. "Hot out," Pippa says as she retied her shoes.

"Girls against boys," Renee decrees.

We nod our heads. "I call being team captain," I tell the guys.

"You can't argue no can beat him," Oak tells Daveed who looked a bit devastated.

We started the game. I guess since Jazzy's guarding me she's team captain too. I moved the ball up to trick her and lowered it to pass to Oak who was doing well with staying open. I pass the ball. Wait why is it in Jasmine's hands?

She smirks making her way through the court and passing the ball to Pippa who managed to stay open. Pippa shot and made it.

Our mouths drop. "Game on!" Jazzy yells with her hands up.

I chuckle. SHe's so adorable n-no she's not she's not she'a um cool um. "Anthony!" Oak exclaims passing the ball to me.

I save the ball from hitting my chest. Damn, I gotta start paying attention to the world more I thought.

We played a couple of more rounds which was fun cause Jazzy was there no cause it was just fun now stop it brain! We sat at the park benches cooling the shade. "We totally beat your guy's asses," Jazz tells us.

We all laugh. Jazzy takes out her water bottle and drinks some. I would drink my own but I finished mine and I don't trust water fountains. "can I have some?" I ask her taking her bottle already.

"No!" She exclaims as I drank some already.

She playfully hits my shoulder. "I hate you," She tells me.

"Hey, same here," I add on.

We all laugh as Jazzy stared at her water bottle. "I'll just be thirsty and wait till home to drink water," She adds.

~*~*~*

Later as it started getting dark out the rest left but I and Jazzy stayed to play more games. We rested on the floor of the court. Jazzy held the ball to her chest and stared off into the distance. "You know your not that bad freckled boy," She tells me.

I face her. "You to start girl," I respond blushing.

Jasmine blushes and starts to stand up. I get up along with her, "Well nice game Ramos," She tells me before walking away.

I stared at her who walked away leaving me thinking too much and keep reminding myself I have a girlfriend why do I have to remind myself that?
