We had chatted casually throughout our trip to the cinema, and everything felt perfect. When we arrived, we went to Subway to grab something to eat, and as we sat down, Alex’s phone rang.
‘No mum, I told you, I’m at the movies! she said, her voice irritated. ‘Does it matter with who? Fine, Jai!’ she said angrily.
I decided to log in to twitter on my phone. I scrolled through my mentions and randomly followed some girls who’ve tweeted me, I knew how much it meant for them. I typed a new tweet.
@JaiBrooks1 on my way to the movies now :P
Within seconds, my mentions were exploading. I replied the first one I saw asking which movie I was going to see.
A followed a few more, then I went checking my timeline. Suddenly, I saw many people question who I was on date with. I frowned. Then I saw the same tweet retweeted all over on my timeline.
@luke_brooks @JaiBrooks1 Good luck on your little ‘date’ bro.
I was fuming. How could he do this to me? To our fans? I saw that many girls were upset, they tweeted stuff like ‘there goes my chances of marrying jai’, ‘who is that bitch on a date with my boyfriend’ and ‘Jai’s on a date, brb while I go kill myself’
I could hear Alex still arguing with her mother and I felt so helpless. If I did tweet this wasn’t date, I might upset Alex, which is the last thing I wanted to do. I was so angry at Luke I was shaking. Why? Why the fuck would he did this to me? Alex hung up.
‘Ah it was my mum, so damn annoying, she wanted me to babysit Li-’ She interrupted herself and gazed at me.
‘Is everything OK Jai?’ she sounded worried. ‘You seem upset or something…’
‘Naah, it’s all good, it’s just.. just Luke messing around, it’s nothing’ She didn’t look fully convinced, but she agreed on leaving for the cinema.
Before the movie started, Alex was a bit distant, she kept checking her phone. I was feeling slightly awkward.
‘So er, are you exited for the movie?’ I said. She started talking again cheerfully, and we kept talking until the movie started. Throughout the movie, I was having this argument in my head whether I should grab her hand or not. I ended up bitching it out. Why was I such a coward?
Anyway, the movie was good, and we shared a few laughters, Alex even cried at some parts.
‘He is soooo damn cute!’ Alex whispered, eyeing Andrew Garfield. It was as my insides were curling up with jealousy, I didn’t now what to say, so I answered with a simple ‘Haha.’ She seemed to notice my reaction, so she added:
‘You’re cute aswell, Jai’
‘So are you’
She smiled.
Alex’s PoV
I had seen all this drama on twitter. I had suspected it had something to do with that when Jai were upset about something he read on the phone. If I was a weaker person, I’d probably burst in to tears when I saw what some of the girls were writing about me. And they didn’t even know who I was, they simply hated the thought of me excisting. I shudderd. We were sitting on the train back home.
‘Jai… I saw all the drama on twitter, just so you know.’
He looked horrifed. I hurried on.
‘It’s OK, though, no big deal.’ I said hastily. ‘You can tell them we’re not dating, I don’t want the fans to hurt.’
Now Jai looked hurt, and upset. I hated myself.
‘I don’t know why Luke had to spread that, he’s a dick. But, before I’ll tweet we’re not dating… I want you to go on a second date with me.’
He looked seriously at me. I smiled. And I thought he couldn’t get sweeter.
‘I’m in, where are you taking me?’
‘You’ll see’
We got off our train, and when we got to the place our roads went different ways we stopped.
‘I had a lovely evening’ I said, smiling.
‘So did I’ he smiled, and my heart was melting. His smile was the most wonderful thing. ‘Guess I’ll see you in media class on Monday?’
‘Yes, and that should be interesting’ I was thinking about how the girls were going to act towards me.
‘Goodbye’ I kissed him on the cheek. He touched the place where my lips had been a fracture of a second before.
‘Bye’ he said and smiled again.
I was thinking about what I’ve read twitter, and I wondered how many girls would like to be me at the moment, spending time with Jai. Probably hundred thousands. I was clearly one lucky girl.
tell me what you think guiiiiise, did you like the Jai P.oV? xo
