Childhood best friend

Jason no!!

Jason gets this pissed look immediately thrown on his face as he widened his eyes, scrunching his nose and clenching his jaw. He stood up and look around the store. Joe stood up as well so Natalie followed. The worker kept looking at them weird but neither gave two flying fucks. "How about we all get a matching outfit?" Natalie suggests trying to calm Jason down. "Dude we've literally got someone following us right now potentially a stalker or some who will-" Jason began but stopped. "Hurt- do bad things to you" He said quietly. Natalie hugged him assuring him not to worry. He eased a bit and agreed to all get matching shirts. They settled with a black thrasher shirt with ripped camouflage jeans and white vans. The total cake about damn near $ 300 dollars for all of it but Natalie had a coupon on her phone for 50% off from her last purchase. They ended up only spending $197.64 (idk lmfaooo) which was a pretty good deal considered how expensive zumies is and they all got a whole outfit. They went to the food court where there was another store for home town clothes. Natalie felt she was already expensive so she just said she didn't like anything there when she was secretly keeping an eye on this black hoodie with "Washington State" on it and the state shape in white. They left with Jason falling a bit behind. They left the mall and the silver car was gone. They get in and Natalie thanks jason for the outfit and he assures he it was no big deal. Joe suggests they should go home and put them on then go to the state fair that was going on that day. Natalie agreed but Jason was hesitant. "I mean I don't want to Jack the outfits up on the first day dude" He said. "Ok then let's just go without changing" Joe shrugged not bothered. Natalie agreed and they were off. They pull up in a large field of grass and park where everyone else was and walked to the entrance. As they walked Natalie seen Liam pulling in eyeballing her. She grew uncomfortable and grabbed the first hand she felt which so happened to have been Joe's. Jason noticed and stopped walking. "Natalie?..." He said looking at her broken. "Please keep walking I'll explain" She mouthed him looking in a rush. Jason slowly started walking again and seemed to be thinking. Once thy got behind some trailers in front of the fairground Natalie let go of Joe's hand and explained to Jason, "Liams following us he's.." she looked behind Jason. "He's here!!" She whisper yelled as she pulled him into the fair. She went to a ride with the shortest line which was the Ferris wheel. They carts had seats for three so Natalie sat between Joe and Jason. She looked down as the started going up to let others on. Liam walked and seemed as though he were looking for something. They stayed on the Ferris wheel for a long time up in the air. Joe put his head on Natalie's head and hummed soothing her. He usually would do this when she's stressed or has a head ache. Natalie relaxes and holds Jason's hand. They sat up there and Natalie our her head on Jason's shoulder while Joe put his head on Natalie's shoulder. They started going back down and Liam spotted Joe and walked away stopped at a bear by bathroom and waited for them. Natalie just stared at him terrified and Jason caught on. He noticed what she was staring at and glared with his nose scrunched clenching his jaw. They got off and Jason gave Natalie a hug and a kiss on the forehead. He let go throwing his head in Liam's direction and stormed. Natalie grew nervous screaming "Jason no!!"
