Chapter 42 - chapter forty

Her breathing was coming out lightly,he's too close,and she knows he's doing it intentionally,he knows exactly his effects on her body.

"What are you doing" she breathed. He words coming out more like a whisper.

"Jasmine please.you have to forgive me,I couldn't sleep knowing you're mad at me,please let me explain"

He pleaded,Jasmine could see the sincerity in his eyes,and she remembered how her actions landed him in the hospital.

"OK fine,am ready to hear you out, but not with you being this close, move."

"Why,am I affecting you butter?" He smirked.

"Would you explain or not!" She snapped out in frustration.

"OK OK " he moved back,putting some distance between them.

Jasmine folded her arms ready to listen to his explanations.

"When my mom was sick,on her umm.. Death bed actually, she ah...made me promise to marry Evie. And I did,I promised her I would marry Evie,unfortunately,that was the last conversation I had with her." He sniffed,his eyes turning teary,he loved his mother so much,and just the memories of her,makes him emotional.

Jasmine felt bad and sorry for him.

She moved closer to him and placed her hands on his arms in a comforting way.

"Am so sorry to hear that." she whispered rubbing his arms soothingly.

"B-but why would she ask you to make such a promise."

"Well Evie was the daughter she never had, Evie's mom was like a sister to my mothers,but she and her husband died in a plane crash,so my mom adopted Evie.

We actually kind of grew up together."

He further explained.

"Hmm,more like childhood sweethearts" Jasmine teased.

"Nope what I had for Evie,was purely platonic" he defended.

Jasmine smiled,and wrapped her arms around him.placing her head on his chest,which took him by surprise.he sighed with relife and hugged her tightly.closing his eyes and relishing the warmth of her body.

They stayed like that for like a minute before he broke the silence.

"So….. You meant it when you said you love me huh?" He asked with a smug smile.

Jasmine raised her head to look at the proud look on his face.

"Nope I changed my mind" she broke the hug,and sat by her bed.

The goffy grin on Teddy's face slowly died down.

"No..no no no no no no,you can't just change your mind.." He rushed and crouched down to her level.

"Of course I can" she responded,flipping her hair.

"What!?" He questioned in disbelief.

Jasmine was really enjoying the look of misery on his face right now.

"You sly thing" he chuckled when he saw the small smile she tried to hide.

She shrieked and squirmed when he started tickling her belly.

"Oh my gosh, hahahahahah STOP it hahahaha" Teddy straddled her and continued with his attacks.

He finally stopped and layed beside her on the bed,they were both facing the ceiling and were trying to catch their breaths..

"Ha… You're so mean.." She whined

"You deserve it". he grinned.

"Ouch" he exclaimed when he felt harsh bite on his neck.

"You also deserve it " she smirked while he scoffed and bit his lips,the look in his eyes was making her stomach churn and cheeks burn.

"Stop starring at me like that".

"Never wake a sleeping lion"

"What do you mean?" She asked confused by his riddle or whatever that was.

"You'll see" came his simple response.

"So what are we gonna do now,about the crime you're accused of,it seems you're gonna have to skip classes."

"Of course not,am not a coward that will hide,I have a free conscious,let's just forget about this for now" he stylishly ended the topic.And silence engulfed the room.

"You sleepy?" he asked.

"Nope,you?"

"Nah…,let's have some fun jazz,were both not sleepy" his voice came out low and husky,driving her insane,before she could comprehend what he meant.

She felt his warm lips on her neck and an involuntary moan escaped from her mouth..

The next day was Monday,in the snow mansion everyone was getting ready to go to their various destination.Judith Jason and Teddy were already at the table waiting for Jasmine.

"What's taking her so longgg" Judith complained.

"Teddy why are you smiling this early,did something nice happen last night" Jason asked out of curiousity.

Teddy smiled and said

"yeah something nice happened last night" Jason was really curious

"what happened last night" asked Judith with a gossipy look on her face,just then Jasmine came downstairs ,her head lowered facing the floor.her steps were slow and careful,

"Jasmine!! Really? We waited for you for so long and look how you walking"

"Am sorry" Jasmine apologized and hasten her steps.

"Good morning everyone" she greeted and took a seat next to Judith,her father observed her closer and noticed she didnt for once spare a glance at Teddy.and Teddy kept smiling mysteriously..

"Teddyy!!" Jason called slowly

"Yes uncleeee"

"What did you do to my daughter yesterday??"

Jasmines cheeks flushed red when she heard the question her dad asked,

"Dad mind your business"

Jasmine blurted out making her father chuckle..

"Oooooohh" Judith grinned.

"OK OK I'll mind my business...but please make sure you use condoms"

Jasmines cheeks neck and ears turned red as an Apple.

She slammed her fork on the plates carried her bag and ran out of the dinning room.making everyone at the table chuckle.

"Uncle please stop teasing her,we didnt do what you're thinking"

"Oh better" said Jason with an accusing gaze.

"At least not here" Teddy added with a smirk.

He ran for his life when he saw a bottle water thrown his way.

Brandon left with Teddys car last night so teddy had to go with the snow sisters.

The atmosphere in the car was awkward.but Teddy kept on smiling while Jasmine's face was red with anger.

Judith kept on grinning enjoying the look on their faces ,she's just curious what really happened last night though,she's sure they didnt do the do if not she would have heard some noises.

Their car pulled over at the schools parking lot, the atmosphere in the school shocked them.there were many nonstudents with banners and shouting, on the banners were written TEDDY WE LOVE YOU.TEDDY WE BELIEVE YOU,TEDDY WE TRUST YOU.and the students were chanting,TEDDY WE LOVE YOU,JUSTICE FOR TEDDY,

"oh wow you have quite a loyal fans in the school Tedd" said Judith with amazement

The same thing happened in the school. students chanting and holding banners in support of Teddy.Teddy felt touched.and the videos were going viral online.

Everything finally settled down when the second bell for classes was rung.

" Oh man we heard what happened,are you okay?". asked Levi worriedly.

"Yeah am fine"

"Brandon told us what happen,can't believe Evie stooped so low. she filed a case against you Ted,this is getting serious,and we need to find evidence" Tristan was very worried that this is going out of hand.

" Evie filed a case against me?"

Teddy asked in disbelief.

"We'll take care of it,there has to be evidence somewhere" said Brandon.

"the CCTV footage of the apartment building,if we could get that it'll prove everything" reasoned Levi.

"We'll do that after classes"

"I'll talk to Tom,he should get it ASAP,we shouldn't waste more time" said Brandon,he took out his phone to call their manager.

LUNCH BREAK

"Jazz why are you angry today,Chris asked after their dance lesson for the day,

"Its nothing"

Chris understood that she didnt wanna talk about it so he dropped the topic.

"Sawyer looks a bit off today," said Chris

"Yeah I noticed too what happened"? Asked jasmine .

"Have no idea,you should ask her"

"Yeah sure,,bye Chris see you after school hours" Jasmine waved and headed to her class.

Chris sighed,he has to tell her his feelings someday.

Jasmine walked into the classroom and there was no one in but teddy..

Good very good she has been looking for an opportunity to see him alone.

"You scum" she gritted her teeth and threw her school bag at him,but he dodged at the nick of time.

"Jasz hold o what's wrong, wait ahh" he screamed as she followed him around the chairs throwing books at him.

"You brute just wait and see how I deal with you ahh-" she yelped when she hit her knee on a desk and fell down.

"Shit! Are you okay love?"

Teddy asked worriedly as he came to her and helped her up,

"are you hurt babe- Ahhhhhhh shit shit Jasmine are you a vampire,why are you always targeting my neck..." he exclaimed when Jasmine suddenly bit his neck harshly

" thats my revenge for last night you bastard" she yelled as she tried scratching his face but he was quick to get hold of her hands and restrain her,

"Leave me alone" said jasmine her voice cracking at the edge.

"Oh jazz am sorry" Teddy cooed as he pulled her into his arms hugging her tightly but a chuckle escaped his lips.

"But jazz we didnt even have sex,why are you so rilled up" said teddy earning a glare from Jasmine.

"But Jasmine you and I knew you enjoyed what I did hunh ,my fingers did a good job in-"

"JUST SHUT UP" jasmine yelled her face and ears turning red.

"Ohh my babe is shy" teddy smirked bitting on her red ear lobe.

"I've changed my mind,I won't date you I won't be your girlfriend again" Jasmine said as she puffed her cheeks and she walked angrily out of the class.teddy burst out laughing hardly.

'oh gosh jazz you're funny,and naive and I can't help but keep on falling hard for you' he thought with a smile.

Jasmine kept on huffing and puffing as she walked to the ladies bathroom. But she paused on her tracks when she saw sawyer lost in her thoughts.

"Sawyer what's wrong?" Asked jasmine.

"Sawyer took a deep breath and said,

" jazz I think Caleb is sick"

sawyer said worriedly.

"Really why? What happened " asked

jasmine.

"He has so many needle pricks on his forearms,both healed ones and fresh ones,there are so many dots on his forearms" sawyer explained.

Jasmine took a deep breath and browse through her phone.

"Is it this?" She asked showing sawyer a picture of such arms from the google.

"Yeah exactly!" Sawyer exclaimed.

Jasmines face looks distorted,

"What's wrong jazz What type of sickness is this".

" I don't think its a sickness sawyer,I think Caleb is into drugs,he injects himself"

Said jasmine softly.

Sawyers eyes widened.and she scoffed.

"Caleb is not into drugs" she stated strongly.
