a beeping sound. What was that?
"Dinner's ready" He said with a chuckle. "Stay right here."
Jase rolled off me and stood up. First, he walked towards the kitchen and the beeping stopped. I watched as he walked into the bathroom that was connected to his bedroom. I heard the water running and he came out with a washcloth. He laid beside me on the bed and cleaned me. No one had ever done that before. It was sweet and sexy. Just like Jase. He threw the washcloth to the basket in the corner and started gathering up our clothes. Once we were dressed I started to get off the bed and Jase pulled me onto his lap and kissed me. This time it was sweet and tender.
"I'm falling hard for you Jase" I said without hesitation. I didn't want to sound weak by admitting my feelings so soon but I had to tell him. A part of me was scared he would tell me we were moving too fast. Because the rational part of my brain was telling me just that. But my heart was screaming louder and my mind didn't stand a chance. Jase didn't speak. He just put his hands around the back of my neck and stared into my eyes.
"I don't want to freak you out, I'm sorry." I blurted out and closed my eyes. I regretted saying it out loud.
"Look at me." He whispered. "I started falling the minute I looked into those blue eyes of yours" He said as he caressed my cheek. "I can't even explain it. I wanted to kiss you before you even said a word to me. And once I got a taste, I was hooked. I don't want to mess this up, Lainey. I want this. I need this."
"Me too." I said. I was so relieved. I put my lips to his. I could stay like this forever.
Instead we walked back into the kitchen. Jase grabbed his baseball cap off the floor and adjusted it back on his head. It was so cute the way he always had a hat on. Then we walked over to the table and he pulled out a chair. He motioned for me to sit down.
"Do you need some help?" I asked
"Nope. Sit."
I sat in the chair and watched as he maneuvered around the kitchen. He brought everything to the table. It looked delicious.
"This looks amazing Jase. I should have known you could cook too." I said as I picked up my fork.
"I figured out pretty young how to fend for myself." He said with a little sadness in his eyes. But it disappeared pretty quickly.
"Oh my God." I moaned as I took a bite of the cheesy enchilada. "This is delicious."
"Thanks" He said as he devoured his enchiladas.
After we finished dinner, he started putting away the dishes.
"No way, if you cook, you at least have to let me clean up" I said
"How bout I let you help clean up?" He said with a grin.
"Deal" I said as I took his plate out of his hand and walked over to the sink.
He walked over to the pantry to grab aluminum foil to cover the leftovers when his phone began to ring. It was on the counter right next to me and I couldn't help but glance over. "Jay"
Jase walked over to the phone, looked at the name, hit decline then put his phone in his pocket. He didn't say a word, just kept cleaning the kitchen. Was I just being paranoid or was that weird? Was "Jay" a female? God, Lainey. Yes you're paranoid. Every man isn't like Derek. I hated that I always had to remind myself of that.
"Do you want to watch a movie?" Jase asked as we finished cleaning the kitchen.
"Sure" I said. I put on a smile even though "Jay" was nagging at my gut. I wanted to ask but it wasn't my business. Unless it was a female, then it was my business. Wasn't it? Maybe? I don't know. Were we making this exclusive? Damn it! My stupid paranoid mind would drive me crazy.
Jase grabbed me by the hand and pulled me over to the couch. I snuggled up against him as he grabbed the remote. His phone rang again. Jase pulled it out of his pocket. Of course I was going to look. "Jay" He hit decline again and put his phone on the end table.
"Who's Jay?" I couldn't help it. My curiosity and paranoia got the best of me.
Jase
