"Gabriel, have you given her -" Jackson stopped short when he saw Zoe and Gabriel together. The both of them broke away from each other upon his arrival and they look as if he had caught them doing something bad. Jackson rose his brow, this was interesting.
With her face looking like an overripe tomato, Zoe immediately said, "I should take my leave." She turned and nearly stumbled In Jackson's way, the guilt and confusion messing with her mind. She acknowledged Jackson's presence with a nod and was out of the house as fast as both of her legs could take her.
Zoe didn't even realize that she wasn't breathing until she made it outside. What the hell happened inside there? If it hadn't been for Jackson's interference, she could have kissed Gabriel - even after their decision to stay as friends.
