Falling for my Bodyguard (Unedited)

Chapter Eighteen

Jamar POV....

Christmas day....

I wanted to go home to my family for Christmas be I have to work which am ok with. I haven't seen Jasmine in two days, she's locked up in her room again every since that day at the pool. I didn't mean to confused with like that, but I seriously didn't want to let her go. Amanda on the other hands been so obsessive and always around me, she's a really nice girl but I'm in love with Jasmine.

I know its wrong but I can't help the way I feel about her, it kills me to know I can't be with her even though I want to be with her so badly. I glimpse up her room from the guest house but she keep her blinds closed and I miss seeing her.

It's Christmas day but I decided to dress casual since Mr Hastings invites me to dinner. I hope I'll see Jasmine there but Amanda will be all over me I won't get a chance to talk to her, I think I should tell her how I feel about her because its killing me inside. I knock form on the door breaking my reverie.

" Merry Christmas handsome " Amanda greets sweetly.

Before I could reply she March into the guest house with a small gift in her hands. I close the door and follow behind her.

" I got you something" she said excitingly handing me the gift. "Open it" she said smiling

"Amanda you didn't have to get me anything" I said sitting on the couch.

"I wanted to get you something so stop being silly and open it" she replied sitting beside me.

I gently took the gift from her hands, I slowly open it and it was a grey and black stripe tie. Why would she get me a tie?

"Do you like it?" She said before I could say anything.

"It...its lovely" I answer awkwardly

"Good you can wear it to the New years party with me next Friday" she squeal.

"What New years party are you talking about?" I ask unsure

"The one Micheal keep every years, it will be fun" she said laughing.

She kiss me on the cheek and skip through the door before I could reply. She actually ask me to be her date to the New years party, this girl is killing me.

Jasmine POV....

It's been two days since I've received that text, I've been locked up in my room again and I didn't tell anyone about it. I didn't want to have them to worry but I'm scared as hell, I have no idea who would send it unless it's Mr Harris. I decided that today is the day am gonna go out and enjoy my Christmas with my family.

I hop out of bed and walk over to my closet to get something nice to put on, I open my blinds and my eyes locked on the guest house with Amanda walking in and Jamar close the door behind. I feel like something sting me in the heart, I feel a urge of jealousy building up in me. Why can't I get over him? How can I have such strong feelings for him and we were not even together? I tried to occupied my mind with everything I can think off to block out while taking my shower.

*later in the evening....

I did my makeup along with my hair, I fix it neatly in a ponytail with a small bang. I wiggle into my blue tight dress and slide my flats on, dinner is at home so I decided to go with flats instead of heels. I spin in the mirror staring at myself, before heading downstairs. I need to keep my eyes and mind off Jamar, I just want a wonderful Christmas. The table was neatly set with variety of food, everyone was at the table when I arrive. I sit beside my dad and opposite from Jamar, oh great this will be fun. Amanda sit right beside Jamar giggling away, I can't wait for this dinner to be over I feel like an suffocating.

" well looks like everyone is here so let's get started " dad said excitingly

"I'll bless the food, all eyes close please" Monica said smiling.

We all close our eyes while she pray, I peek over on Jamar and our eyes locked instantly and I close my eyes back. After the pray we start sharing food, I didn't take much. I start to remember about the text and loose my appetite instantly.

"Kitten! Jasmine! Are you OK?" My dad asked concern

"Huh? Yes dad am ok" I nod

"Are you sure? You haven't touched your food" he said worried

"I'm OK dad really" I said with a small smile

I start to force myself to eat while everyone get back to her dinner. I feel something brush my leg and I look up on Amanda and Jamar, he's stare at me with a smirk on his face. I straighten into my chair and get back to dinner. I could still feel his eyes on me but I pretend not to notice as I said I want him off my mind.

"Jamar will be taking me to the New years party next Friday" Amanda said excitingly breaking the silence.

I choke on my water and glare at them both, I feel something sting my heart again and I just want to leave the dinner table. How could he be taking her?

"Wow! That's great you two" Monica said smiling " so Jasmine will you be taking Chad" she said to me which cause a frown and dad face.

"U--hmmm Chad and I are not together anymore so......" I trail before dad cut me off.

"That's good news honey so you can come along with me and Monica" he grin

"You guy's were such a perfect couple, what happened?" Amanda speaks as if she care.

"It's none of your business Amanda" I snapped upsetting

"Kitten why being so harsh on her? she just ask a question Jasmine" dad said glaring at me like am the bad guy here.

"I just don't want to talk about it OK" I said softly "excuse me please" I muttered

I got up and leave the dinner table, i hate being around Amanda she always pissing me off and dad never seems to see that about her. I angrily walk over to the garden and tears start coming suddenly. Why am I crying?

Stop acting like a spoil child Jasmine, he wasn't yours, he's not Interesting into you so stop shedding tears for him. My inner self scream at me, I manage to dry my tears and get up to return back for dessert when I heard someone coming towards me.

"Jasmine you're not supposed to be out here by yourself in the dark" A deep voice said walking towards me.
