Deciding to not question Jason about how he knows I have a boyfriend, I bite my tongue and just stand there, back pressed against the door.
"You're mine, Melody Jones."
''Newsflash, Jason, I'm not yours.'' What is this? 365 Days? I'm a free woman and I don't belong to anyone. I challenge him with my eyes, daring him to contradict me. He remains mute and takes a few steps back, no longer caging me. I release a breath I didn't know I was holding and fall to the ground with my knees tucked in my hands.
That's enough male testosterone for one day,
''We should get going. The others are probably worried.''
He nods wordlessly and stretches out his hand. I take it without hesitation and give a little smile. ''Don't forget what I said, Melody.''
Melody? That's a first because he usually calls me Jones or Princess.
''We're on first name basis now?''
