"They are undercover and are here for your protection."
"What? Are you crazy? I don't need protection. And these two bulls undercover?" I said pointing towards the bulky men. "There's nothing undercover with them following me around."
"Oh no you got...
"Don't like who?" I asked walking into the game room.
"Umm uh- " Marcus stuttered looking between me and Jay who was looking as pale as ghost.
"So?" I questioned settling down on the bean bag beside the couch on which Jay and Marcus were sitting.
"Rachel!! He was talking about not liking Rachel!" Marcus almost shouted. I raised my eyebrow at his sudden behaviour. Not exactly speaking the truth huh? So I turned towards Jay.
"I thought you loved her?"
"I thought I did but no I didn't love her." He said looking at me.
"I know you guys are hiding something but that's not my place to ask about your personal life so I'll just leave you be. And I hope whatever it is you are smart enough to know that if it's right or wrong." I said to them before turning my attention to my buzzing phone.
*PING*
Anthony : Today 7:00 pm. Meeting with hacker.
Giara : Okay. I am trusting you with this Anthony.
Anthony : Okay. See you later Ms. Edwards ;)
Giara : Sure Coach ;)
Marcus was leaning over to try to see who am I texting. I smacked his forehead hard.
"Oww!!" He exclaimed leaning back rubbing his forehead where I smacked him.
"That's what you get for being sneaky." I said locking my phone and pushing it down in my back pocket of the jeans.
"What? I was curious! And why are you chatting with our coach?" He asked.
"And why do you care?" I asked.
"Don't answer with another question!"
"Are you guys dating?" That was Jay I turned towards him looking confused.
"Dating?" I questioned.
"Yes dating." He said with a stern voice and little bit of anger in it.
"Why do you care?" I asked.
"I- I- " He started stuttering.
"Because it's illegal, you are his student and he is your teacher." Marcus spoke up.
"For few months." I said still looking at Jay.
"So you are dating him?" He asked. Jay looked up with an expression I don't know, as if he wanted to say me no so I said.
"No." They both literally signed in relief.
"Well I wish I could date him. I mean he is strong, intelligent, hot and sexy. Totally my type. Hmmm maybe I should date him."
"No!!" Both of them shouted.
"Excuse me?"
"We mean to say that he's too old for you and you are not even at legal age to date him." Jay said.
"Well I am not at legal age to work as a secret agent, yet here I am. And he's just 26, not too old." I said shrugging.
"But why go for an oldie when you have someone who's your age, who's strong, intelligent, hot and sexy. Who's totally your type!" Jay exclaimed.
"Who's that someone? I see nobody." I said innocently looking around.
"You know what? Go date him, have babies with him, I don't care!" He exclaimed taking the game controller in his hands and turning towards whatever game he was playing. I just chuckled under my breath.
"Snacks are here!" George came in carrying snacks.
"Hmm. Why do I smell nuggets?" I said sniffing.
"Because I brought chicken nuggets too. Especially after master Jay demanded saying you like chicken nuggets."
"He is partially correct. I don't like them, I love them. Thanks George." I smiled up to him.
"You are welcome Ms. Edwards but you should thank Master Jay for that." He said winking at Jay who turn bright red.
"I'll do that." I smiled up at him.
"You do that. I'll take my leave. If you need something, I'll be downstairs." With that George left us three.
"Chicken nuggets specially for me huh?"
"Umm y-yeah. I mean you like them and I wanted to say thanks for what you did for us." He stuttered. "I mean if it wasn't for you then we would have been still fighting and you know what I mean right?"
"I know what you mean but I definitely doubt it. That you and Marcus would not be talking. You guys are like identical twins, not look wise but very much alike in other ways. Like you know what other one is feeling without him telling you. It's rare. I don't think you would have been able to stay away from each other for more than a week."
"Yeah that's true." Marcus said smiling at Jay who had the same dazzling smile on his face.
"You guys are lucky to have each. I wish I had someone like you in my life." I mumbled out the later part. Nobody heard probably because Marcus spoke smiling at us.
"That we are. But now enough of the sappy talks. LET'S PARTY!!!!" Marcus shouted.
And just like that we digged into our food, teasing each other, laughing and snogging at food.
"Hmm. Oh my god. This is so good." I moaned popping another nugget in my mouth.
"Can I have one?" Marcus asked eyeing my nuggets.
"Nope. Get your own." I said pulling them my chest and continued eating.
"But Jay didn't let me. Please pretty lady." He whined.
"Good. Because they were for me. So you don't get any." I poked my tongue at him childishly.
"Pleaseeeeeeee." He pleaded dragging the 'e' of please.
"No." By now he was by my side on knees eyeing my nuggets. "Don't look at them. They are mine." I hissed hiding them from his hungry eyes.
"Just one please!" He pleaded again putting his arms around me and hugging me tight.
"Noooooo!!"
"Please! Please! Please!" He exclaimed tightening his hold on me.
"No. Get away from me Marcus!" I shouted holding the nuggets away from his grasp.
"Stop being childish you two." Jay finally spoke, fed up with quarreling.
"First tell him to get off me!"
"No first tellher to give me a nugget. You should share. Sharing is caring, prettylady!!"
"But Giara doesn't share food because she don't care!"
"Well Marcus is going to teach Giara to share food!" We both wereliterally screaming at each others face.
"Stop it both of you!! And stop talking in third person, it's weird!"Jay screamed making us halt our screaming fest. "And Mark get offher." He scolded.
"No. I'm comfortable here." He said hugging me again. It was as if Iam a tree and he's a koala.
"Mark."
"Yes Jay?"
"Get off now."
"Why Jay?"
"Because-"
"Oh I know why! You're just jealous that you don't get to touch her or hugher like I do. But don't worry she is all yours, I'm just trying to get mynugget." He said making Jay blush like a Virgin Mary. I wonder if he's avirgin? Hmmm.
"Mark shut up!"
"Yeah Marcus shut up and those are MY nuggets not yours!" I saidemphasising on my.
"Ugh! You guys are impossible. Giara give him one. I'll get you more ifyou want."
"No."
"Oh come on Giara don't be like that. You are suppose to be my badassbodyguard not someone like childish Mark."
"I am not childish. I just want a nugget!" Marcus screamed at Jay'saccusing comment.
"I'm a badass bodyguard but that doesn't mean that I have to share myfood."
"Oh god! You're worse than Mark." I just scoffed at that. "Markbe a good boy and get off her." When I didn't obey he resorted back tohim.
"But I want a nugget Jay!" He whined.
"I'll tell George to bring in some for you okay?"
"You promise?"
"I promise."
"Okay." And I was finally free to enjoy my nuggets. Marcus poked histongue at me.
"Now I'll get my own nuggets. And I won't be sharing." He saidsmugly.
"Good. But Jay got these-" I said pointing towards the nuggets andthen to me. "Specially for me but for you, he just wanted you to get offme." I replied back smugly.
"No!"
"Yes!"
And with we were back to square one. Quarrelling.
