Chasing His Rejected Luna 184
JADEWhat came to my head when Jaiya said we should go out? Not much really, but it shouldn’t have been the idea of staying in. Because she did specifically said going out, so, why would I think staying in?Well, why I’m thinking about this is because the music is too loud and my head is thumping with the beat of it. Definitely not how I thought I would spend my evening. Though, I’m sure my irritability has more to do with the fact that Antonio hasn’t messaged me still. This is the longest we have gone without talking in… ever. Since before we even became official.It’s not even that he didn’t message me. I’m worried something was wrong because this isn’t like him. And that banned letter and its contents have been nagging me in the back of my head.If anything, Jaiya doesn’t look like she is any more fun than I am. She is lost in her thoughts and ha scene nursing the same drink. I got water, which I didn’t even drink.I wanted to ask her what was wrong because this is not like her. Sh

JADEThe walk to where Jaiya was seemed to have tripled, or even quadrupled compared to when I got up to go to the bathroom.She looked up when I got to her and I instantly noticed how dilated her eyes were. And it know it is not just because of the drinks.“Oh my God, Jay? Are you okay?” I placed my hand on her shoulder, giving her a little shake because even though she was looking at me. It didn’t seem like her mind was here at all and that made me break out in a sweat, my mind running as I thought of who to call.I moved closer to her so she could lean on me, which she did. And her body was deadweight, I had to adjust my stance so we both don’t topple over. Taking a survey of the whole place. I checked all entry and exit points. The most crowded and ;essential crowded spaces.All I needed to do was get us to the door. With another glance at Jaiya, I saw that it wouldn’t be as easy as it sounded in my head. But I wasn’t just going to sit here and wait for a miracle to happen.“Can y

JADEI woke up feeling someone’s eyes on me. Getting up with a start, a hand grabbed my shoulders, trying to pulls me back down. Or at least it seemed that way. My instincts kicked in and I started fighting whoever it was. My fist connected with their upper body and I heard a groan. And a very familiar voice curses.My eyes opened and I came face to face with Jaiya whose face was twisted in pain.“Shit. I’m so sorry Jay.” I spoke, getting up and giving her the seat. She nodded, trying to breathe through the pain.“Fuck!” She breathed out. “You’ve got a mean pinch. Remind me to never get physical with you.” Even though the situation was serious, I found myself chuckling a little and she smiled too. “Hey.”“Hi, good morning.” I greeted, taking a seat beside her and slinging an arm over her shoulder in apology. “I’m so sorry. My flight or fight instincts kicked in.”“And you’re a default fighter.” She groaned, rubbing her lower belly.“Unfortunately.” She nodded.“No problem. It was my f

JADEI tried to convince myself I didn’t see anything and it was just my overactive mind breathing fake scenarios. But it felt real. It wasn’t just a dream because I know what I saw and as much as I tried to convince myself it isn’t that. The truth is glaring at me.Jaiya noticed how I was getting flighty and she kept asking if anything was wrong. Not wanting to worry her, I lied ad said it was nothing. There was no need to scare her too unless is was sure it was something serious. For all I know, it could be the paparazzi. They liked following me like endless flies. And I’m saying this with the utmost respect seeing as they were doing their jobs.It just so happens that they have the most annoying job in the world and it makes me sick.We went back to the penthouse. Deciding to walk since that was how we came. I kept looking over my shoulder had expecting to see the an following us. But it was just a busy road with everyone minding their business.I thought we would get jumped, kidna

JADEI freeze hearing that. Jaya doesn’t look any better with her widened eyes, almost filled with horror. I tried to come to terms with it. Remembering the weird energy I felt between them. But I said I was going to mind my business so I never brought it up. Now, I don’t know if I should have or not. Because she looks like she is about to have a metal breakdown.“Once?” The question slipped out. And I wanted to smack myself in the head because why does it matter if it was once? She seems haunted by it.I was ready to apologise for stepping over the line when I saw the slight shake of her head. It was very small, I would have missed it if I wasn’t studying her so well.“Twice?” Another subtle shake of her head. I reached for the bottle of water on the coffee table table and gulped down more than half of it in one go. My stomach rumbled, not agreeing with it because it was one things happening to my body to another. “How many times? Jesus.”The way I sounded must have been funny becaus

JADEI didn’t understand what Jaiya meant by that. Why did she have to reject Damien? They seem to like each other well enough, so what exactly is coming between them? It doesn’t make any sense to me. Though, she looks like she is not in the right frame of mind to answer that question right now. I didn’t push her either, I wrapped my arms around her and comforted her until she stopped crying.We were both quite for the longest time. The only sound that could be heard in the apartment was the honks of cars from outside. And even that was faint.The doorbell rang and I got up to answer it before she could make a move.When I opened the door, there was no one there. The anxiety started coming back at full force. I remained calm, as much as I could with shaking hands and peeked looked around. But there was nowhere toe even look, it was just a little foyer that leads to the elevator. I pressed the elevator button and it opened a short second later. Which meant, no one was using it. Who ran

ATLASJade hasn’t reached out or even looked for me. At the very least, send a message. I thought she would do at least one of that after the message I left her, but nothing. It was like I wasn’t even existing and that was the worst feeling ever. I hated every part of it.I would take her anger any day. Her yelling or telling me anything she wanted, over this simple game of ignoring me. It was making me go crazy.I find myself pacing my hotel room more times than not. Staring at the telephone in the room and waiting to be called from the reception because she is here asking for my room.Or just looking at my door, expecting her to knock and just walk in.I have thought up every possible scenario you can think of and none of that has happened yet. The only thing I am doing is wearing a hole in the carpet on the floor of the room. I couldn’t turn my phone off because I was hoping for a call or message form Jade. So, I muted Andrew instead. Because he was still texting me.I think he has
