Risky Temptations

Chapter 3: Where is the line drawn?

When I got home I put my stuff down on the couch and went to the fridge to grab a quick bite. Lets see, macaronni and cheese? Nawh, how about some strawberries...nawh. OH! My left overs from Smash Burger the other day. Fatty, but perfect. :P

I walked to the couch to lie down and watch some TV with my heaven on a spoon. I flip the channels until I see something intresting. Its a movie called, "How to Loose a Guy in Ten Days." This is great, maybe this can help me with Chase..

Not in a bad way, but in a way I still adore him, I want to be friends again. I miss being his friend. Being his girlfriend is not as fun as I thought it would be. When we were friends, we did everything together. We went paddle boating, we walked in the park, we texted like every second of the day, we told eachother everything, it was perfect. Yet, when we started dating it got different. First I loved the fact that we were dating. Now, I won't have to worry that I might just daze off and kiss him smack on the lips.

Accually, that's how we started dating. We were just talking, and I just couldn't resist anylonger. Being unable to concentrate on anything he was saying, and I focused on his eyes that called to me, kiss me. So I did. I didn't mean to. I was in a trance. So I apoligized and was about to get up from our picnic. I was so embarrassed. But as I was stood to get up he pulled my hands and kissed me back. It was so magical. I didn't know he liked me like that. I thought I was just the one that liked him. It was one of the happiest days of my life. Yet, now when we kiss, it just feels like nothing. It feels like whatever. I wonder if Chase feels like that too..

As I started to think about it, my phone started playing, Call Me Maybe. I thought the text was from Chase and it would be a sign that I was way over my head even considering leaving Chase, but instead it was a random number I had never seen in my life. I opened the text and it read, "Hey Jen, its Jason." I died. What did this mean? Do I answer, or just like act like I didn't see it? Just then I recieved another from Jason. "I couldn't stop thinking about you," it said. This is coming from a guy that was just having girlfriend problems back in California. Was he just a player, or did he accually really like me?

I replied, "Oh hey. :)" The text was plain, but I didn't really know what to say.

About a minute later I got one back. It said, "So I was wondering, since I just moved here and I don't really know anyone, maybe you'd want to hang out or something."

What?! What do I say! I felt bad because he just asked me out, and I was taking forever to respond. After like 7 minutes I texted back, "That sounds great, but just as friends. I have a boyfriend." I think it was right for me to say that I have a boyfriend rather then to not say and for him to think that it meant anything more than two friends hanging out. Even though, I kind of wanted it to be more than that deep down. About 5 minutes later, I got a response.

"Oh...okay. As long as we can still hang out one of these days. You seem really cool and I really like your personality." I was shocked he wasn't mad I hadn't told him about me having a boyfriend. But I'm grateful. "How about Saturday at 7?"

Should I say yes? I thought long and hard....

-------Thinking----------

"Okay, that sounds nice," I responded. I figured since it was just us going out as friends, there was nothing wrong with saying yes. And to prove it, I was going to tell Chase, that way if rumors spread about me and Jason "going out," he would know it was just as friends.

Jason's POV

I was so nervous asking Jenifer on a date. I mean it's not a date, we're just hanging out as friends. [Even though I want it to be a date.] I have to find away to make her mine. She is so special. Ever since I knew her name, I just don't know what it is.. She's so nice, she looks nice, she dresses nice, she draws nice, she even smells nice. I just want to wrap my arms around her and kiss her. I have never felt this way before about anyone and I barely know her, and she has a boyfriend....what am I going to do?
