When we reached Potter's , I was really glad that I dressed up nicely for the date instead of going with Jacob's 'you look beautiful no matter what '. Nervous and a bit excited , I tugged at the hem of my dress as I walked beside Jacob who was carrying Annabeth in his arms . A ninny - no , a high maintenance,well poised and neatly coiffed hostess was walking in front of us , her back ram rod straight as she lead us to our table. I stole a few glimpses furtively as we walked past the occupied tables. Most of the tables and booths were full and as for the patrons they were dressed exquisitely ranging from business suits to cocktail gowns. Even the unoccupied tables were set with bone white china plates , tiny square vases , folded cloth napkins and spotlessly clean goblet maybe used for wine or water , whatever the patrons preferred .
On the right , there was a silver haired man was playing violin upon a raised white marble platform and beside
There wasn't anything more embarrassing for a girl than getting caught by your brother when you are kissing - no full blown making out with your boyfriend .It was hella embarrassing for me as well and it was with awkward grace with which I stepped out of Jacob's lexus while Chris glowered a glower at Jacob that deepened when his gaze drifted to my swollen lips ." hey , Hamilton " unlike me who was hopefully staring at the ground wishing that it will some how spilt itself and swallow me whole , Jacob was completely relaxed . He got out of his lexus in apparent ease and raised his brows at Chris with hands in his pocket " You waiting to me off ?"Something about his lazy demeanour must have ticked Chris off because a second later I heard my brother growl like an enraged animal " I really have no idea what my sister sees in you -"Jacob who was looked thoroughly amused by Chris enraged profile cocked his head and mad
'Trust is an unexplainable part of any relationship ' when Jonathan and my mother separated their way this was exactly what my nanna told me , in her words when trust fades away from a relationship there is nothing left except an empty shell that traps two people together until they decide to even break that shell that was tying them together . I was a firm believer of this theory which was why I didn't want to doubt Jacob after what Chris just told me but still after much tossing and turning I was still widely awake , staring at RM poster on my ceiling point blank .But for some reason even my charming RM couldn't get my mind off Jacob , after the 'very nice 'chat with my brother - I came to my room to watch Korean dramas on loop , stalked cough platonically surfed RM 's official page but nothing - my mind was still in a mess." god dammit !" cursing I sat up straight and glared at the wall opposite to my bed , I
Sandwich in mouth, my mind went high as if it was on adderall , I tried to think of reasonable excuses that might excuse my sins and serve me my penance . But no matter how hard I thought , I couldn't think of a reasonable excuse as for I was ignoring my boyfriend in just a relationship of two days .Maybe I should just bite the bullet and come clean and tell Jacob that I needed some time and space ? It was a shitty thing to do but my heart needed some time out to prepare itself for this sudden ' stranger danger 'that popped up out of no where ." Jake I -" I started but then a chill ran through me when I finally caught glimpse of the person who was staring down at me and I back tracked at once , swallowing hard I raised my hand in surrender while my sandwich flopped back on the brown paper bag on my lap " whatever happened to Ariana , I didn't do it "Yup it was Conan , I
To say that I took the 'yes I was kinda involved in my ex girlfriend accident cum murder case ' well would be an understatement . I took it with flawless apparent ease - Not !The moment I was done with the little chat with Jacob , I told him exactly what was going in my mind and that was - I need time and space . Guaranteed , Jacob didn't took it well but maybe he was smart enough to know that this time , he needed to play by wits instead of playing his cards by force .Thus , he didn't stop me from leaving but that doesn't mean he gave up pestering me. He had been constantly flooding my inbox with messages which had no important subjects or content . As on cue my phone chimed and I swept a glance at my smartphone which was vibrating upon my dashboard with 'Jacob ' flashing on its screen ." Your phone is ringing " with her Mr .Pooh teddy bear in her arms , Annabeth told me . Today was Saturday and as per my promi
Jacob's assurance put my mind at ease, though there was a nagging voice in my head but I threw it right at the back of my mind , presuming it as anxiety which rose because of my overthinking regarding the situation . And now that my heart was a little settled down , I had another thing to worry about - I was alone with Jacob , in his damn room .I could vividly imagine a huge signboard hanging over Jacob's head that read " Please move with caution your virtue is at risk " in vibrant flashing colours. Unfortunately , the signboard was a tad bit late ." Well thanks for clearing it up " I said struggling to sit up straight as I pushed against Jacob's chest " It would be nice if you - you know if you let me get up "" And why would I do that ? Hmm princess ?" just like yesterday noon his eyes
" Where the fuck were you ?" this was the first thing Chris said to me the moment I stepped inside the house . It was past ten at night and well obviously it was past my bed time , not that I had a decent schedule of going to bed but I did have a fixed schedule of returning home which I unfortunately failed to follow tonight . It wasn't my fault though , I was well prepared and ready to go back home once Jacob came all over my bre**ts but then he went down on his knees and shoved his tongue inside my wet folds and well Ahem that kinda distracted me and by the time I shattered under the assaults of his tongue and fingers , the ticking of the clock was past nine .I knew I was late but Chris's unnecessary scowl and that interrogating tone rubbed me wrong ." you might be my brother but you are not my darn keeper " I retorted shrugging off my jacket I threw it on the coat rack that wobbled under force of my thr
Several days passed by after that little burglary attempt , Chris was still harping mad about the entire thing . I won't say he was overreacting , not when my brother who was pretty much broke after getting a pretty dang job done on his car , had to take out whatever measly savings he got, to repair his playstation as well as the broken window pane . In his words ,if he ever get his hands on that stupid little bastard,he will shove a fist size rock right up his a*s and have him shit it out.At first I was a bit spooked out by the stone throwing incident but later on as the day passed and nothing happened , I totally chilled out not only because Chris's stupid theory of 'Jacob 's major stalker ' was proved wrong , I was pretty much certain that the entire thing had nothing to do with any prankster or any crazy psycho maniac - most probably it was a burglar who got his facts wrong and made a mistake. With a certain assurance , the odd nag
I was humiliated , embarrassed but most importantly I was enraged - terribly incensed . Rage surged in my body leaving a hot charred blistering heat in its wake . I could feel the heat of my anger traveling up my neck and suffusing my head .My expression must have been terrible because both Selina and Ron were looking at me like I was a hungry T - Rex that was ready to rush out and chew up a good hundred and thousands , and honestly I was - I wished I could rip Jacob Knight's heart off his chest and gobble it up but did that guy even had a heart for me to rip out and even if he did , I was quite certain his heart would be nothing else but a blob of molten black tar ." Don't look at me like that " I said testily when Selina and Ron kept watching me with precaution " I'm not gonna do anything , of course I am inclined to punch Shaun Shotto
