Chapter 4 - Unknown Feelings

Jason moves forward towards Zendaya as she starts stepping back.

"W… what do you want?" Zendaya asked.

"I want you to drop this attitude with me and it will be sorted" Jason said while leaning towards her.

Zendaya pushed him by his chest and ran towards Raven. He smiled and slid his hair back excitedly. He smiled ear to ear when Bill came to him.

"I never saw you smiling like that, a rude billionaire smiling. I hope the reason for your smile is interesting" Bill happily said and Jason's smile dropped when Rumana came to him.

"Let's go babe!" She said and Jason found her annoying.

Zendaya came to Raven while breathing heavily— trying to catch her breath.

"What? Why were you running?" Raven asked.

Zendaya hit her "I will see after the restaurant" Zendaya threatened her and they both went to the restaurant.

On the other hand, Daniel became angrier because Zendaya didn't pick up his calls.

"Do whatever you want! But tonight I will make sure you suffer like you never experienced" Daniel angrily said.

In the restaurant, "You feel something for Crane, right?" Raven asked.

"No…! What are you saying?" Zendaya said while ignoring Raven's gaze.

"See you acted suspicious. I know you like him, the way you were looking at him or I said whipped at his cuteness" Raven said.

"W… what? W… was I that obvious?" Zendaya asked with wide eyes.

"Yes! Even Mark noticed you" Raven told.

"Really? He is cute though" Zendaya said with a shy smile.

"Aww don't feel shy but I think Jason also feels something towards you, the way he looked at you" Raven explained.

"What? Jason! He has a girlfriend, he's only motive is to annoy me" Zendaya said while denying Raven's words.

"Well we will see because love never hides for long" Raven said and went towards customers to serve.

"Jason…! Did he…? Nah! She is just overthinking" Zendaya said to herself and shook her head while smiling.

At night, both Zendaya and Raven finished their work and went to their house. They both were very tired so after dinner they fell asleep.

"Now I can sleep peacefully, no one will touch me with their dirty hands" Zendaya happily thought and tears of happiness escaped from her eyes and she drifted into her dreamland.

On the other side, Daniel is waiting for Zendaya to come home and when she doesn't come he calls her many times and is burning in anger when she doesn't pick up his calls.

"Why she didn't come home yet? And why is her phone off?" Daniel asked himself in anger.

Then he went to Zendaya's room and went crazy to see her empty wardrobe, and her important stuff wasn't in their place.

"She ran from here, when? Why didn't I know about her plan? She was planning for this for a long time, that's why I didn't know about it. She can't hide from me for long, I will make you come back to this house" Daniel said and threw Zendaya's photo frame on the wall in anger.

The next morning, Zendaya woke up because of the sound of an alarm. She sat while rubbing her sleepy eyes and then shook the figure beside her who laid like a dead body.

"Wake up! Raven. We have a class" Zendaya said while shaking Raven.

"5 more minutes…" Raven said while going back to sleep.

Zendaya got up and did her morning routine and started smiling when saw Raven sat on bed looking funny.

"Will you come with me or sleep more?" Zendaya said sarcastically.

"Coming. You and your sarcastic ass" Raven irritatingly said.

After some time, Zendaya took Raven to buy a cell phone for herself.

"Don't we have a class, Zenda then why are we here?" Raven said while crossing her arms and with a demanding look.

"Don't you remember? I have to buy a cell phone. That's why we are here and about our class. We have plenty of time because I woke you up early on purpose" Zendaya said while nervously smiling while showing her teeth.

"You tricked me and ruined my precious sleep just because of this, unbelievable" Raven sighed in disbelief.

After buying a cell phone both drove off. At campus, Zendaya is walking while randomly talking with Raven. That's when a well built veiny arm blocks her way. Zendaya looked at the front and rolled her eyes.

"J… Jason...!" Raven said under her breath.

"Hi baby!" Jason seductively said while looking at Zendaya with a grin.

"Hi... Jason!" Raven shouted a little in excitement.

Zendaya in disbelief raised her eyebrows while shaking her head and about to go when again Jason stopped him.

"I said Hi. Don't you have the manners to answer me?" Jason said with a satisfying smile.

Zendaya clenched her fist and said in her mind "No, don't do anything. Just end this here and do as he said."

She took a deep breath "Hi" she said with a forceful smile.

"Will you let me go now?" Zendaya sweetly asked.

Jason removed his hand while unknowingly smiling and Zendaya went for her class while dragging whipped Raven.

In the hallway Zendaya saw Crane and Mark.

"Did you look at those veiny, sexy and muscular arms? So touchable. Uh! My poor heart can't handle that much hotness," Raven said while placing her hand on her heart dramatically.

Zendaya lightly hit her shoulder "Stop drooling! Look Mark waving at us" Zendaya said.

Both went towards Mark and Crane and greeted them. Zendaya unknowingly smiles at Crane but no one notices except Raven.

"Why are you showing all your teeth like a maniac?" Raven whispered and teasingly hit her shoulder to Zendaya's shoulder.

Zendaya's smile faded away and she glared at Raven.

"Did we miss something? Why are you two glaring at each other?" Crane said when saw Raven and Zendaya talking with their eyes.

"N… nothing!" Both said at the same time and then nervously smiled.

All four of them giggle and talk randomly but there is someone who is watching them from far and clenching his fists.

"Jason…!"Bill said but Jason lost in staring at Zendaya and Crane.

"Jason…!" Bill shouted a bit and Jason came back from his thoughts.

"Y… yes! What are you saying?" Jason asked.

"Why were you looking angry while looking at them, huh?" Bill confusingly asked.

"Angry… who? I'm not. And what are they? Nothing— right?" Jason denied and then went inside the class.

After Jason— Zendaya, Raven, Mark and Crane also went inside the class and sat on their respective seats.

After the class ended Zendaya said "I'm going to freshen up myself."

Raven is lost in Mark so she just nods at Zendaya. Crane was out for professor's work. Zendaya got up and went towards the bathroom. Jason looked at her disappearing figure and got up.

"Where are you going babe?" Rumana said while clinging to his arm.

"Leave my hand. Just going to take the fresh air" Jason made an excuse.

"Okay! I'm comin' with you" Rumana said when Jason unknowingly shouted "No…!"

Rumana flinched and everyone looked at them.

"I meant to say… I don't wanna bother you. So you wait for me here and I'll be back in a few minutes, okay?" Jason realized he shouted so then he changed his tone to sweet one and said.

Rumana blushed and nodded.

Jason internally smirked and then went outside the classroom. He starts searching for Zendaya and finally finds her coming out from the bathroom near an empty classroom.

"Now you'll see, baby doll" Jason said while smiling devilishly and hid in the empty classroom.

Zendaya after doing her work— coming towards the classroom when a veiny hand grabbed her arm and pulled her inside the classroom— pinned her hand on the wall which made her scream.

Then she looked up to see the face who pulled her inside "J… Jason?? What the hell are you doing?" Zendaya angrily said while struggling to free her hand from his grasp.

"I'm doin' nothing just bullying you" Jason said— leaning towards her.

Their faces are very close to each other as they feel each other's breaths. Jason looked in Zendaya's eyes and then her nervous lips. Zendaya sees Jason is staring at her lips and she panics. Jason keeps leaning towards her lips. She closed her eyes and tightly grabbed Jason's arms which made him come to his senses and he backed off, saying "SHIT…!"

Zendaya opens her eyes and the environment goes awkward. Jason hurriedly left from there— leaving her behind dumbfounded. He went towards the bathroom and then looked at himself in the mirror.

"What were you thinking there, man…?" Jason said and then closed his eyes.

He still feels Zendaya's breath "What did you want to do with her? Ugh…!!" He said in frustration and then washed his face.

On the other hand, In empty classroom Zendaya is processing what just happened.

"What's with him? Why did I close my eyes and didn't protest against him?" Zendaya lost in her thoughts and came out from the empty classroom.

"What are you doing in an empty classroom?" A voice came from behind her and she flinched.
