Jasper’s POV
“Hello.” I đã đưa ý kiến gruffly.
“Where are you?” my mother barked.
“At Alice’s.” I said.
“I told bạn to be trang chủ bởi ten and it’s ten and you’re not here.” My mother yelled.
“I forgot. Can’t I spend a little thêm time with Alice?” I asked.
“No, bạn have school tomorrow.” My mother hissed.
“I’m on my way.” I đã đưa ý kiến defeated and disappointed. I hung up and turned to see Alice’s angelic face.
“You have to go home.” She said.
“Yea, Mom beckoned me home. She says we have school tomorrow.” I said.
“Okay. See bạn tomorrow, Jazzie.” Alice đã đưa ý kiến before planting a wet Kiss on my lips. Alice walked me to the door and watched as I left. I sped trang chủ to make sure I arrived not too late. When I pulled into the drive, the light was on outside. I ran inside to be greeted bởi my mother.
“15 phút late.” My mother tsked.
“Sorry ma’am. I forgot.” I said.
“Like bạn forgot to go to work? Your employer called to find out why bạn never showed.” My mother shouted.
“Mom, I’m sorry.” I đã đưa ý kiến because I couldn’t tell her the truth. She’d think Alice was crazy.
“You’re sorry? That’s all bạn have to say. After I left that girl live here, this is how bạn repay your father and I. We took her in no các câu hỏi asked. Are bạn two sleeping together? Is that your problem? That girl is changing bạn Jasper. bạn used to be so punctual and no we’re lucky if you’re an giờ late. Jasper Hayden Whitlock, bạn tell me the truth, are bạn and that girl sleeping together?” my mother was a bright red.
“No ma’am we’re not. I promise.” I đã đưa ý kiến quietly.
“Get to bed, bạn have school tomorrow.” My mother đã đưa ý kiến dismissing me. I ran upstairs to my room and got into bed. I grabbed my phone and texted Alice.
    Hey babe.
    Hey. Are bạn in trouble?
    Not a lot. Mom freaked and thought we were sleeping together.
    Oh. Sorry I got bạn in big trouble. I’m sure your mother hates me now. What’d she say?
    Not much. Told me she knew I’d skipped out on work and wanted to know why. Of course I just apologized and she sent me to bed.
    Wow. Sounds bad.
    It wasn’t too bad.
    I’m still sorry.
    No worries Ali cat.
    I’m tired so I’m off to bed. Sweet dreams.
    You too, darling. I tình yêu you.
    I tình yêu bạn more.
    Not possible.
I fell asleep shortly after and woke to the sun shining in my window. I crawled out of giường and into some jeans and a t-shirt. I grabbed shoes and went downstairs to eat something before I went to school. I grabbed a pop tart and headed out. When I arrived at school I instantly looked for Alice’s shiny black BMW. When she stepped out, my jaw dropped. She was dressed in a grey dress with a thick black thắt lưng, vành đai and black heels. She had màu hồng, hồng tights on too. She walked towards me and I wrapped my arms around her protectively.
“You look gorgeous, babe.” I đã đưa ý kiến awe-struck.
“Is it too much?” she asked quietly.
“No, bạn look perfect.” I đã đưa ý kiến grabbing my school bag. Alice took my hand and we walked into the school. As we walked down the halls I noticed Alice focused on her shoes.
“Jazzie, are bạn mad at me?” Alice asked when we stopped at her locker.
“No. Never. Why?” I asked perplexed.
“Just curious.” Alice đã đưa ý kiến grabbing her Chem book. I took her hand in mine.
“Mary Alice Brandon, I tình yêu bạn and nothing could stop that. Unless of course bạn wanted to chẻ, phân chia, split ways and have someone else.” I đã đưa ý kiến putting my forehead against hers.
“Oh Jazzie, you’re too good for me.” Alice cooed kissing me briefly.
“I mean it.” I đã đưa ý kiến sweetly.
“I know.” Alice đã đưa ý kiến grabbing my hand and heading towards her Chem class. I watched as she sat down tiếp theo to her partner, Edward Masen. Then I made my way to Pre-Cal.
