The last one I want to see now.

"Running away like a chicken?" Jason broke the silence walking towards us with Jessica, Dylan, Tony, and, Cindy. I can already feel irritation seep through every inch of my nerves.

"I'm not, I just choose to not get into this ride" I barked at him.

"Yeah, because you are scared. Admit it." He gave his famous cocky smirk and I just want to take a pen and poke his face.

"No, I'm not" I spat back.

What does he think of himself? Even if I'm scared the hell I'm about to accept it in front of him.

"Yes, you are" he affirmed.

"Get lost you pig" he surely knows how to get on my nerves. I'm already in the mood to twist his neck. I would have done it if not for the twisting n flipping feel in my stomach.

"Oh look little kitty is scared!!" He continued his mocking session.

"Oh let her be darling, she is too small for this ride and she is probably scared, let's go," said Jessica batting her eyelashes at him and softly pulling him towards the ride.

And that's just like putting some salt over my wounds. Why does everyone feel like I'm a little kid?

Yeah, maybe the fact that I reached below Jason's shoulders but that guy is above 6ft. So I'm not to blame and I'm still growing.

"I'm not scared and I would ride this one," said the brainless egoistic me.

Why? Why can't I keep my mouth shut for once!!

"I dare you,"  Jason stopped in his tracks and gave me a mocking look.

"Amy, no need let's go," said Sophie pulling me away by my arm.

"There is no need to prove to him, let's go Amy and you Jason just back off, stop bothering her at least on her Birthday," Ryan yelled at Jason.

But no, I decided to be the nonsensical idiotic moron that I am decided to go ahead just to prove him wrong.

I walked towards the ride with my chin up in the air to show that I'm not scared but I think my wobbly legs gave them the idea of my real state.

I sat on a seat feeling scared but yeah how bad can it be... I will just close my eyes and count till 100.

Amy simple...breathe in and breathe out. I'm mentally preparing myself for this hole I dug myself. I want to smack myself.

I felt someone sitting in the seat beside me and looked at an amused Jason next to me.

"Why are you here?" I asked him irritated.

"You probably want to smack yourself, so I'm here to help you."

How can he always listen to my inner thoughts?? Creepy!!

"If I die here you are going to be the reason" I spat out angrily.

"Oh, I'm so thrilled to watch your face" he looked so excited buckling the restraints.

Is he going to open the restraints and push me out when we are high up in the air? What if he chokes my neck and kills me in here. My mind started to think of all possibilities.

"What about Jessica?" I asked, shouldn't he be sitting with his girlfriend. It is a 2seater so obviously, she wouldn't leave him to sit with me.

"You know I wouldn't miss this chance, and Jess is with Cindy maybe" he shrugged his shoulders like he didn't care.

The ride is about to start, okay last chance run for your life Amy what if he calls you a chicken just run out of here, my mind scolded me.

And the seat restraints got locked. There goes my last chance to live. I closed my eyes and started counting numbers in my mind, my cold hands tightly gripped the bright aqua blue restraints.

I can feel the ride going up. Jason placed his hand on my right hand. I immediately grabbed it right leaving the restraint.

Once we reached the top, the ride stopped for a few seconds. Is it finished? Maybe I got scared unnecessarily, just as I opened my eyes the ride started, it's swirling at full speed dropping down and I closed my eyes fearing my life.

Gone the fear of dropping down my seat, now I'm just worried for my little heart beating crazily in my ribcage. I hope it doesn't stop beating during this ride.

I can feel my stomach doing a flip-flop. And I started screaming while I felt tears brimming my eyes. Just as the ride slowed down after an eternity. I slowly opened my eyes to check whether I was alive or dead somewhere in the middle of the ride because of a heart attack.

Well, I'm still alive. I just pinched myself to be sure. I looked at Jason, bright green eyes looking at me softly.

His facial features are just so attractive, perfect nose and sharp jawline, perfect m shaped light pink lips and his away ruffled dirty blonde hair which looked perfect. I can see why girls go gaga over him.

How would his face look if I puked on him now?

The belts got unbuckled and I stood up in my seat and came down to my friends and I felt my body swaying and nauseous at the same time. Good going Amy puke and fall down face first into it.

I felt strong arms on my waist and looked up to see Jason is holding me looking worried. And I was surprised to see him worried for me.

I just pushed his arms away not wanting to puke on him. But his hold tightened. Why can't this guy understand? I may throw up on him!! But I'm in no place to voice it out.

And I vomited right on Jason. I pushed him off and this time he let me. I went to the sidewalk to puke my guts out, well eating heavy breakfast, hotdogs, pastries and milkshakes while getting on rides is not a good idea.

Point noted for next time.

Jason immediately came by my side and started to hold my swaying body by my shoulders.  Sophie came running with a bottle of water and she started rubbing my back.

After puking everything I ate in the last 24hours. I felt okay after washing my face. Then I turned to Jason, and the image in front of me is priceless. Jason in his leather jacket and T-shirt is covered in my vomit.

Thank God it's not on his handsome face or else I might get killed here and my body will be found floating in the pool.

"Sowwiee," I said with a sheepish smile.

I'm ready to take good scolding from him, or him even dangling my body upside down, but he kept mum and went to the changing room to change. That was odd. He came out wearing a new t-shirt and grey hooded jacket.

As its lunchtime, we all went to the food court. Everyone ordered their food but I just asked for a bottle of water. I'm still feeling slightly dizzy. As soon as the food came, I felt like puking again once the smell of food hit my nostrils.

I excused them saying I would go to the games section. I saw Dylan following me out.

"Arent you going to have your lunch?" I asked him.

"Lunch can wait let me keep you company. Are you feeling alright?" He asked with a genuine concern in his voice.

"I'm fine, just don't feel like eating. And the sight of food is making me nauseous."

We played games till the others returned from lunch. Then we headed into the changing rooms getting ready for the water rides.

Guys came out in their swimming trunks. I changed to a geometric tribal print swim dress and Sophie in pink blue floral swim dress, Jessica wore hot pink 2 pieces with halter ties, a tie back closure, and a matching bikini bottom with tie sides. Cindy in olive green triangular top and matching tie sides

After a few hours of fun in the water, I  didn't even dare to get into the water rides. All I did was swimming race with Ryan and Sophie or lying in my float in a lazy river pool. And then I discovered this lazy river is the best therapy to calm down your nerves.

I closed my eyes feeling content and enjoying the moment but all of a sudden, someone flipped my float pushing me into the pool. I sank into the water and immediately came up gasping for air. The pool is only 4ft in-depth but the sudden drowning experience scared me.

I turned around to see who pulled me out of my little la-la land and I was not surprised to see Jason with his famous smirk on his face.

I walked out of the lazy river and me wanting to beat the crap out of him followed him. I can hear so many sighs and gasps from many girls and women as he walked with 6packs and toned muscles.

As he walked towards the pool, I went behind him and gave him a push, pushing him into the water. His body sank into the water, happy with my achievement I started laughing. I could feel the girls around me giving me murderous looks. I noticed that but I couldn't find him swimming back to the top.

Now I was a little worried. I called out his name loudly a few times. But there was no response. I immediately jumped to the pool and started searching for him and then I felt someone lifting me off my legs and putting me like a sack on his shoulders.

"Let go of me" I shouted hitting his shoulders. My face turned red seeing my newly puffed up breasts slightly brushing his back and his hand just below my arse holding me in place.

After shouting at him to put me down, at last he listened to me. He Placed me on my feet looked at me and without a word turned to walk away. I'm going to give him an earful, cold water with huge force splashed on me, startled I moved jumped towards Jason who is now laughing his head off, and noticed that he made me stand under the huge water bucket that dumps all the water on the crowd under it when it is full.

I was soo pissed off at Jason but striking him back means asking for more trouble and with no more energy left in me, I walked back to Sophie and Ryan. I don't want to waste my day fighting with Jason. I will get back to him tomorrow with new energy.

I felt weak, tired, and hungry with all the swimming, puking, and not having food. So I decided to get changed and wait for others. I changed to my cotton white button-up top and blue skinny jeans. As I walked back to the pool I saw that others were also out of the pool and on their way to changing rooms.

Just then some kids running around pushed me and I fell back into the pool. I came out of the pool and shivered as the cold air hit my body and my white top now turned transparent. A few boys may be highschoolers near the pool gave me weird looks and one with sun-bleached hair whistled at me.

Just as I'm about to shout at them "Backoff she is with us" I heard angry Dylan. I smiled at him and mumbled thanks to him, feeling uncomfortable, noticing that my baby pink bra with bright watermelon prints is visible. I don't even have another spare dress but then felt something warm around me.

Turned to see Jason placing his grey hooded jacket over my shoulder. He sent a flare to the boys and they immediately went away.

I noticed that he already changed to his t-shirt and khaki shorts. I immediately wore it mumbling thanks to him.

Tired Sophie, Ryan, and I started walking towards Jason's car. Just then Dylan came with a penguin soft toy and gave it to me saying "happy birthday"

"Aww thank you so much, Dylan" I smiled at him.

"Welcome Amy and goodnight" he gave me a side hug and walked back towards Tony's car.

"Even Dylan gave me a gift unlike someone who didn't even wish me," I said eyeing Jason.

Jason gave me an I DON'T CARE look and sat in the driving seat.

Once the car started. I dozed off feeling sleepy, placing my head on the window. I woke up startled hearing Jason shouting my name in my ears.

"Shut up you idiot, you are going to rupture my eardrum". I saw that he was standing by the car door and we are in my driveway.

"Get out of my car, you are drooling and containing my window." I immediately wiped the drool with my palm.

I looked at the backseat and I'm alone in the car. He must have dropped Sophie and Ryan first.

"Goodnight Jason"

"Goodnight kitty" saying he pulled me for a warm hug. I inhaled his scent and stood in his embrace.

I wonder how he is always the one who can enrage me and calm me at the same time.

I crashed onto my bed not wanting to change. Just before I'm about to slip into sleep I heard mama shouting from downstairs.

"Don't sleep. Take a shower. I will bring you something light to eat heard you puked your guts out."

I thought I could just ignore her and go back to sleep but then a warm bath and some food could help me sleep better.

I saw a tiny box fall out of Jason's hoodie while tossing it onto the bed.

As I opened it I saw a pair of beautiful blue butterfly studs with diamonds and a note reading "Happy Birthday to my dearest kitty cat" and I smiled not knowing when he slipped the box into the hoodie.

    Jason's POV I walked into the house around midnight. I saw my parents sitting in the living room. Mom with tears in her eyes and Dad with slumped shoulders. I can guess what they are talking about. Everyone is worried about Amy. She is not talking with anyone, always sitting alone in her room lost in her thoughts. I went and sat with them. "I spoke with Amy's doctor, she might need psychiatric counseling. She is barely talking. I have booked an appointment for tomorrow. It's been 2weeks since she came back from the hospital. " said my mom. "I don't know what to do, I promised Rob on his death bed that I would always protect Amy and look after her as if my own, but the way she is dealing with her parents' death, I'm worried about her. She looks pale and looks like she even lost weight" Dad replied in a thick voice. It's not easy to deal with the death of your

    lt is awkward sitting on the bus with a straight face while every person is talking about you. Sophie is sitting beside me and Ryan is in front of me. People came near me, gave me their condolences and pity glances, and then went to their seats. Currently, I was feeling extremely low hearing them discuss the accident and thinking about how I would lead my life now. I felt like crying all over again. 'She would be given to foster home if not for The Browns.' A girl said in the back. Tears clouded my eyes and my vision turned blurry. I held the bag in my lap tightly, acting like I didn't hear any of it. I'm not used to so much attention. Only when Jason tried some stupid prank on me, people would notice me. But no one bothers me in school except Jason. A girl from junior high who is known as the gossip queen came near me and cleared her throat. "Hey Alicia, sorry about

    I could feel my heart thudding against my ribcage. I sat there biting my nails in anticipation. I don't know what is happening in the living room. Peter and Kristina are there with Uncle Raj, they are waiting for my Dad's lawyer. I thought to sneak downstairs and listen to them. Yes, I could go quietly, sneak into the empty guest room adjacent to the giant living room. I hope they are in some serious discussion and wouldn't notice my presence. I still can't understand why Kristina asked me to stay in my room. I have every right to know what they are talking about, it's my life they are discussing. Right? I slowly tiptoed into the long corridor, passing Jason and Ryan's rooms. I ducked myself so that I can't be seen, I walked to the staircase and hid behind the white fiberglass flying fairy sculpture with wings spread and holding a bird in the hand. I tried to hear what they were talking, But I couldn't hear anything, I was contemplating the th

I asked Kristina if she could accompany me to the shopping mall and she agreed happily.I knocked at Uncle Raj's door. I want to tell him before I step out for shopping."Yes," he replied."I'm going out for a few hours with Kristina. I will make sure to come back as soon as possible.""It's okay, I have to take this business call anyway.""Then I will come back before you know it."I waved him bye and left with Kristina in a car. The psychiatrist made me overcome my fear of traveling in a car. I can sit in a car if it's a trusted driver. So Kristina drove the car herself without the driver.I felt really good, coming out shopping with Kristina, and the fact that I'm purchasing everything for mama's family made my heart swell with happiness.I'm very happy with the g

She asked me moving a step back and scanning me up and down. "She eats all the food in the house along with my ears and brain." Jason teased from behind. "Then you don't have proper food at your house and your brain is probably empty." Reeva rolled her eyes at Jason, making everyone laugh. "Why did you invite her?" Jason hissed in my ear. "I'm not ready to get another round of scolding from her because I didn't invite her. I've learned my lesson the first time." We entered the resorts booked for our wedding.

He smirked, cocking his eyebrow up."I swear to God, Jason, if this is again one of your pranks then I will throttle your neck right here and chop your body and feed it to the wolves." I fired at him.This idiot right here couldn't confess his feelings but planned a full proposal? I am not sure."Jeez, you are killing the mood, Amy" Tracy chided me."It's true? He is actually proposing? To me?" I asked Nyla horrified.I may just pinch myself, nope not dreaming."Shit, Amy, what do you think I'm doing here on my knees the past 5minutes?"

Don't tell Nyla, it's a surprise for her.""You didn't!" I whisper yelled, horrified."I did. Isn't it fun? Why should boys have all the fun? I'm sure the boys had strippers too."

This girl is gone insane."Tracy, you do realize that Nyla's mom, aunts, and even her grandma are going to be here, right?""Amy, chill, it's nothing they haven't seen before," Tracy laughed maniacally."Heck, Tracy, this is a bridal shower, not a bachelorette party.

    Once we are in the elevator. His palm left mine and the next second he engulfed me in a tight hug. He hid his face in my hair inhaling the scent.I wrapped my hands around his neck. I want to erase everything that happened in the last few hours, I want to ease his mind. My one hand slipped down from his neck to his back rubbing it up and down.I missed him so much, the teasing, the banter, this togetherness, heck I even missed the fights.He broke the hug and cupped my face and breathed on my lips, "thank..."I decreased the gap between our lips and didn't let him finish his words, his arms around me tightened. I closed my eyes basking in the moment. My whole body tingled as he claimed my lips, hungry and intense, sucking and nibbling on them.Thousands of butterflies danced in my stomach.
