Jane's POV
"Guess again" he said and I looked up to stare back into those azure eyes .So beautiful. His hand on my waist sent jolts of electricity up my spine and his lips . Oh his lips, I just want to grab him and...Snap out of it . my subconscious scolded . he's talking
"You should be careful next time ". He said as I stud up straight , my body still tingling from his touch
"T..th...thank you ". I managed to stutter out.
"Um.....its...I was trying to get one of the plates from the c.....cabinet . M...maybe .. .please...". I stuttered again but he cut me short a little impatiently
"Sure" he said reaching up and picking the plate up with ease
"Let's go" he said as he started walking to the dinning room. I let out a huge breath and followed with my face as red as a tomatoes even though my chocolate skin is supposed to hide it
As we walled into the room everyone turned to look at us
"Jane , what were you doing ? You took so long we had to send Ji Hoo to find you". She said with a smile obviously meaning that she was the one who suggested that Ji Hoo come look for me .
I gave her a tight smile before we prayed over the food and I declared "let's eat !!!!!" And everyone started eating. Not bragging but I am a good cook those burns I got during my childhood weren't for nothing so the "this is delicious" and "this tastes so good" comments weren't surprising ,but I wanted to hear him say it , not anyone else. I suddenly felt like his approval meant the most to me, but as usual my life is full of misfortunes. He took one spoon of it and asked for the bathroom. I guess I didn't hide my disappointment cuz Nikki turned to me and said "it really is delicious" as if consoling me.
Everyone made small talk while eating , I looked around , Nikki and Brandon were arguing about something, Alice was scolding Kei and Kai about something and Kitty and Trisha were talking about makeup. This would be my most peaceful moment but something at the back of my head kept bugging me....
He didn't come back for the rest of dinner. Apparently, he left
"Great your horrible cooking chased him away"
I shook my head at the thought and started scrubbing the dish I was holding really hard
"Woaw slow down imouto (sister in Japanese)" Kei said taking the plate from me
"Yeah , you look like you were losing a mental battle and taking it out on the poor plate " Kai said .Damn , he's observant
"you're safe now baby , the mean lady didn't hurt you, did she?" Kei cooed at the plate." For shame Jane West , for shame!! Attacking the innocent China". He said to me again with a shake of the head and I couldn't help but giggle
"I think you should sit this one out , you're our hostess, we shouldn't let you do the dishes too".
"Thank you, you shouldn't bother , but thank you" I said before I started making my way to the living room.
" And Jane " Kei called out while dropping the plate on the counter ."You know you can always talk to us if something is bothering you. I know we're not as close to you as the others but for what its worth, we will always be here for you". He finished with a serious face that was so unlike him.
"Thank you"
After they finished with the dishes, the guys took more than half of the stuff I made and left for Nikki's place. So here we are in my room in our pajamas on the floor in a circle. We spun a bottle to decide who will start the conversation and as fate would have it , it landed on Alice .
"Sooooooooooo, Jay , what do you think about our new friend Mr Park ?" She asked with a teasing smile
"I guess he's a decent guy " I replied examining my nails before applying more nail polish
"So, do you like him ?" This was Trisha
"sure, he seems like a good person"
"She means do you like like him". Kitty said wiggling her eyebrows
"I.....um..what....that's not ugh". I stuttered out
Awn, she's so cute when he stutters Alice said before they burst out laughing
"But it doesn't matter".
"Oh yes it does". Kitty said
"you are getting him". She said with a straight face
"But how, I mean Tiffany is interested in him. There's no way that he'll even look in my direction, I mean he already hates me. He didn't even touch the food ". I finished quietly .
"Then its a good thing you have friends like us ". Trish stated
"yeah , as it is you're already really pretty. We're gonna take that initial Beauty and multiply it so much he won't be able to resist ".
" Kitty's doing math this isn't going to end well ". I said shaking my head
"Our main point is that you almost never take interest in guys and we want you to be happy". Alice said as she took my hand and looked into my eyes ."We Care about you". Kitty said
"We see that look in your eye , the one where you're so distant, when we ask you about it you say you're fine when you're obviously not. You need someone, someone that will be one with your heart , someone who knows what's going on with you and will be there for you". She finished as a tear met with the floor , they were all crying because of me
"Alright , fine you guys can give me a makeover " I said hugging them
"yay!!!!". They all yelled wiping their tears. Con artists.
"OK, tomorrow we're all gonna skip school and you can't take back your word , you agreed to this and you're gonna be the one to ask permission from our parents". Now I get it , they're just using me as an excuse to skip
But either way, I know I'm gonna regret this
A\N: so what do you guys think about the story so far ??? and why do you think Ji Hoo didn't eat the food????
