The eyes of fate.

Chapter #7

Sorry everyone who's been waiting, I just had my exams and then I got pretty lazy. So here it is..... Jason's back YOOHOO! :p

“Ting Tong” I heard the bell ring and quickly ran down the stairs, expecting Joyce to be standing in my front porch.

“Hey” She greeted me with a quick hug.

“Hello” I greeted back, returning her hug.

“You ready?” She asked, quickly glancing my outfit. I was wearing a black long sleeve top with shorts underneath. My hair was loosely tied into a pony and as usual I hadn’t applied much of makeup.

Yeah ! Let’s go” She nodded, and led me the way to her car.

                                              ---------***----------

Me and Joyce had been waiting for Jason for god knows how long. He was expected to be done with the baggage shit and all by now. I remember him telling me to wait for him at exactly the place I am right now. So where was he? Maybe I should call him……… I’m pretty sure he’s in the same dilemma as me and Joyce.

He picked up on the fifth ring and I waited for him to start the conversation.

After half a second I heard his familiar voice. 

“Nicole?” His voice had a questioning tone. “Where are you? I can’t see you anywhere.”

“Oh crap! I th-thought you told me to wait for you outside” My voice lowered with embarrassment and my face tinted pink due to my stupidity.

“That’s so like you Nicole….  Well, hurry up now” He sighed and hung up.

“Uhhhhhh…….” I looked at Joyce, trying to find the words to say ignoring the blood rushing on my face.

“Don’t bother” she said waving her hand at me. “I heard everything, let’s go”

“Nicole! I’m over here! Turn around!” I heard a familiar voice scream my name as I tilted my head slowly.

“Jason !” I ran to him, squishing him like a teddy bear. “I missed you!” I said whispering into his ears.

“I missed you too” he whispered back, returning my hug.

We parted after a few seconds as Jason gave me an inquisitive look. “Uh who’s that?”

“Jason, this is Joyce. Joyce, this is Jason.” I said nonchalantly.

“Hey!” Joyce said, a smile on her face.” I’ve heard a lot about you.”

“Hi.” He smiled back “Well, I haven’t heard anything about you” he said looking mortified. “Are you a new student?”

“Yah… just joined the day you left”

“O- kay…. Can we go now?” I asked breaking the silence. “Btw where are your parents Jason?” I added.

“Oh, I asked them to go home, already knowing you would come pick me” he replied calmly.

“Cool then… Joyce will be dropping us back.”

He nodded in approval.

After spending the longest ten minutes of my life in awkwardness with my bestest friends we finally reached and boy was I glad.

“Thanks for the ride Joyce, call me later” I said, getting of her car.

“Thanks …umm…. Joyce” Jason said awkwardness clearly written all over his face.

“Why couldn’t you guys just talk! It was so weird and awkward and why were you acting like a girl?” I yelled at him feigning to be pissed.

“I wasn’t acting like a girl! I take time to get used to new people and you of all people know that!”

Oh and one more thing…… I know your not pissed, so stop pretending like you are.”

“Why does everyone always know?” I sighed looking at my shoes.

“Because your too easy to read?” he smirked and ran away from me after tapping me on the back. “Catch me if you can Nicole” he said in a smug tone.

“I always sucked at this game when we were little and I bet I still do” I whined, running after him.

“Faster MINNIE! Look at you running like a baby” he teased sticking his tongue out at me.

“You better zip up that mouth of yours man-whore” I ran as fast as I could and before I knew it I had tripped on my own feet, trying to get up I realized I had sprained my foot.

“Damn it!”I cursed myself, scrutinizing the bruise further.

“Holy shit! Are you okay? I’m sorry. Its my fault isn’t it?” he apologized, glancing at my foot.

“I don’t think I can walk. Carry me?” I asked looking up at his face.

“You on for a monkey-back ride?” he asked, exhilarated.

“Remember when we were kids?” I said, climbing on his back.

“Yeah you used to literally torture me to carry you on my poor back.”

“Ha Ha Ha Ha! I remember that…”

“I feel like we’re little again without a care in the world”

“Remember those times when the only tension in the world was to wake up in the morning for the school bus?”

“Yeah IKR? Time passed by so quickly, Can’t believe we’ll be graduating in a year”

“We better make the most of it”

“Here we are your highness” he bowed fake curtseying.

“Ring the bell you dumb-ass” I lightly hit his head in annoyance.

“Whoopsies, my bad.” He rang the bell with one hand, holding me tighter by the legs.

“Jason, sweetie your back! God, I missed having you around SO MUCH.” My mom said planting a kiss on his cheek.

“Mom, I sprained my foot  ‘cause of him!”

“Nicole, your best friend just came back today and this is how you treat him, get off his back at once.”

“Its okay Mrs. Stewart I’ll drop her till her room. You see, she fell down ‘cause of me.”

“Well, that’s bound to happen. She is a klutz.”

“MOM!!!!!!!!!!!! I whined, blushing furiously.

“What? Its true.” She smirked, enjoying my humiliation.

Jason carefully carried me on his back till we reached my room. Gently he laid me on my bed, switching off the lights he whispered “Goodnight Minnie, take care.”

“Goodnight Mickey”

I slowly drifted into a world of my own, recalling today in my mind once again.
