Jason P.O.V
I drive back to my house smiling to myself. I didn't forget that she brought her car, I just want us to spend more time together. She seems so fragile and strong at the same time. I need to help her build her confidence a little and understand why she hurts her herself so I can help her.
I reach the gates as it opens allowing me to drive in. I get down from the car tossing the keys to Jamie.
"Thanks man." It won't kill me to be polite so I am.
Walking into the sitting room I notice Ayo sitting down on a couch watching Ricky and Morty, I plop down beside him allowing him to sense my presence.
"Babe." He nods at me.
He always calls me that among other relationship names. It's kind of our thing.
"How was the project thingy with Hazel?" He asks his eyes still on the screen.
"Uh, good I guess. She kind of ran out before we could go any further though."
He paused the show.
"Oh God." He palms his face." What did you to man? Show her your di-"
"Woah! Dude! Shut up okay. I didn't do that. Why would you- how-. Never mind." I let out a breathe watching him smile."
You're crazy man."
He laughs.
"I know. But seriously, I know you broke up with Stacey cause of Hazel. What're you up to?"
"I really have no idea." I turn my attention back to the screen. "I just...I just want to figure her out. Help her I guess."
I turn to him to see him smiling like a maniac.
"Awwwww. My boy's going soft. Cute."
"Call me cute again and I will break your face." I say a smile tugging at my lips.

Hazel
I reach over blindly to stop the loud annoying sound of my alarm clock. I get up from bed to perform my morning rituals.
When I'm done with my hair I look my self in the mirror.
"This is going to be a good day. This is going to be a good day."
As I'm about to pick my bag when my phone buzzes. I pick it up to see a message from an anonymous person.
Anon:Hey Cherry.
I immediately know its Jason. He's the only one that calls me cherry.
Me: Jason?
Anon: Ding Ding Ding. You got it right!
I laugh and save his number.
Jason: I'm in front of your house. So get your ass outside.
Smiling like I just won a lottery I reply him.
Me: I'm on my way.
I grab my bag and rush downstairs grabbing a bottle of water and an apple.
"Morning mum." I kiss her forehead.
"Hey sweetie."
"I'm going to school now." I say walking towards the front door.
"Not so fast." I halt in my steps." Where is your car. I didn't see it yesterday."
Oh shit.
"I- um ...I forgot it?" I say more like a question but follow it up quickly." But a friend is picking me up, he's outside right now even and I promise I'll bring the car back today, I'm sorry and it will ne-"
