Till I Met You

Chapter 49

Harry's POV:

I was so nervous

 And then Jennifer spoke, "I am getting impatient Ry. I'll remove this stupid blinfold." Then she started counting backwards. "5...4...3...2.."

She was about to say one when I immediately removed the blindfold fom her.

"Ryan?" she said. Then she turned around and saw me. "Harry?? What are you doing here? Where's Ryan??"

"Uhmm. He..uhm..uhh..he went...somewhere.. I guess." Oh my God, I sound like a robot.

She looked at me, confused. "Hey. Are you okay? You look..pale."

"What?? No! Uhh, I mean, yeah? I'm fine."

Suttering.. "Uhm.Jen?"

"Yeah?"

"There is something I want to tell you." This is it!!! "I...uh...I love..."

"You love? What?"

"I love..." I gulp.

"What? You loveee??" Sounding so impatient.

"I love yo...." jesus christ!! "I love your dress." Crap! "It looks good on you, really." The I handed her the flowers. "Uhmm. Here. You might like it." I forced a smile.

She took the flowers from me, though she's hesitant. "Uhm. Thanks?"

"Hey Jen! I've been looking for you." Said another voice, we both turned around and saw Affleck.

He looked at me and he placed an arm on her waist.

"What are you doing here, Connick?" He asked me.

"None of your goddamn business!" I said.

"Well, just as so you know, this is my date. And this is our night." he said.

I sniggered. "And that is my fiancee." I said pointing to Jen.

"Yeah right. From a fake engagement."

Jen's eye's widened in shock. "What?! How did you know about that??"

"Well, let's just say that some stupid no-brainers talk about that whole fake engagement thing inside the men's room an I accidentally overheard them." He said.

Jen looked at me, and I nodded.

"Who else knows about it?" She asked.

"Just me." he said, and then he looked at me. "But I might be tempted to speak up about all this shit if someone no-brainer out there will continue meddling with us." He smirked.

"Really? If you think I'll leave you alone, you're wrong. Not unless you leave her alone. " I told him.

"Do what you want connick. But I am warning you, if I speak up in public about this shit, you're dead."

Jen suddenly interrupted. "You are the no-brainer here, Ben. If you'll speak up in public about all this fake engagement thing, I as well be affected. If you do that, don't you think his family won't intervene? His grandfather is powerful and influential, way way way over than you. And lastly, if we deny all you stupid statements- me, Harry and his family and mine-who do you think will be dead? Guess who?...It's you."

There was an awkwards silence between the three of us.

Another voice spoke, "What are you guys doing here?"

It was Jill. She looks so pissed when she saw Jen.

"You're next in line."

I stepped towards Jen and I grabbed her hand.
