Mr.James *UNDER MAJOR CONSTRUCTION*

Chapter 17- Nice To Meet You

Jazmin's Pov

I felt bad keeping Ben home from work to watch over me. I tried to tell him to go, that I could handle myself but he wouldn't listen. The weekend finally came and Ben went to work while James watched over me. James Laid on the bed next to me, me under the covers, him over them. "Check-up day tomorrow. How you feeling, kid?" He asked. "Numb," I said bleakly. "Damn. Being in bed isn't that bad, is it?" he said. "No, I mean literally numb. I've been in bed all week other than going to the bathroom. My body feels like liquid." I told him. I heard the door open downstairs. "Someone's home," James said like I was a child. Ben came in. He handed me a sub from Ernies and I devoured it. "I changed the check-up to today. Do you know if you can walk at all?" He asked. "I don't know. I can try." I said. I sat up, and it didn't hurt as much as before. I turned to the side so I could get off the bed. I slid off the bed and tried to stand but my legs gave and I fell to my knees. James reached down to pick we up but I swatted him away. I used the bed to stand up and and I braced myself against Ben. After he helped me out and to my room I found the strength to hold myself up. I changed out of my pajama's and changed into some jeans and pulled on some shoes. James helped me downstairs and I got out to the car on my own. I got in the Ben drove and James offered me shotgun but I told him I should sit in the backseat, and he said okay. I sat behind James. Once I put on my seatbelt, I closed my eyes and leaned forward against the back of James' seat. I could smell his deliciously musky cologne. "Why're you leaning forward in your seat like that, It's dangerous," Ben said. "I was...sorry," I said, leaning back in my seat. My cheeks burned in embarrassment. We pulled into the hospital parking lot. Ben cut off the car and looked at me. "You feeling alright? You can walk in on your own?" Ben asked. I nodded. I James got out and opened my door. I grabbed his hand and tensed and looked at me. "I hate going to the doctor," I said. His expression softened. He intermingled his fingers with mine. "It'll be fine," he said. Ben came and whispered something in James ear. James gripped my hand tight making me wince. "Sorry." He said loosening his grip. He whispered something back and Ben nodded. "What's wrong?" I asked. "Nothing." He said, giving me a soft smile. I didn't push the matter but I'd find out what Ben had said. James walked me up to the entrance, Ben following behind talking quietly to someone on the phone. He smiled at me. I smiled back. I sat down while James went and talked desk woman. He comes sits beside me and takes my hand again,held it tight. The doctor finally came and called us back. James pulled me up, and lead me back, following the doctor. 

They gave me two scans, a regular X-ray, and an MRI. The X-ray showed that I still had significant damage and needed to stay out of schools for another week but I could be taken off of home bed rest. James walked me back outside, where Ben was sitting in the car. "What did they say?" He asked. "I have to stay out another week, but I can stay out of bed," I told him. Ben sighed. "I'll get the time taken off and some more put on." He asked. "No. I can stay home on my own. I can get out of bed." I told him. "I can get someone to watch her," James said. Ben looked over at him. "My friend Kyle is one of the best babysitters in the city," James said. "Ben, If you keep taking off time, you'll get fired. If you really don't want me o be home alone...I'll deal with the babysitter." I said. Ben sighed. "Okay. Call or text every hour. I mean it." he said. "I promise I will," I told him. "I'll take you over there tomorrow before I go to school," James said. "Okay," I said. Ben started the car and drove us home.

I grabbed my bookbag and went out to James' car. James drove me to the other side of town to his friends house. I grabbed my bag and got out, about to go up to the house. James got out and grabbed me up in a hug. He kissed me on the head. "I'll walk you up." He said. He walked me up to the door. James knocked, and a man answered the door quickly. he was was the same age as James. He was fit just like James but James was sexier. The man smiled. "Salutations, sexy girl."The man said, with a smile and wave. James growled behind and I blushed. "She's mine." James hissed. I could feel my cheeks burning red. "Look what you've gone and done. She's red as a tomato." The man said. James sighed and looked at me. "This is Ceaser," James said. "Just call me Kash." He said. "Hi." I said shyly. "Shy, just like I like'em. Can I keep her?" He said, with a evil smile. "I need you to watch her. She got hurt and she can't go to school. By the way she in high school." James said. "that doesn't stop you from fucking with her." He said with a mischievous grin plastered on his face. "Can you not read my mind?" James said. Kash went pale. "Don't worry, she's one of us. Show him," He said. I formed flick of fire in my hand and Kash jumped. "Ah-ha!" He exclaimed clapping. "I like that. Teach me that." He said. " Sure thing," I said. I turned to James. He grabbed me up in a hug, wrapping his big arms around me. I wrapped my arms around his torso and hugged him tight. He let me go and give me a small peck on the forehead. I turned back to Kash. "Wanna cause some trouble?" He asked with a mischevious grin. It was then that I knew this would be a long week.
