7 Chapter seven: do not hurt her

Because I am one hundred percent sure that he will hurt you. No girl, absolutely no girl has a nice easy going relationship with Cash. Anna, I don't want it to sound like I don't want you to date, but Cash, he is not the one for you. You have had a lot of boyfriends before, have I ever reacted like this to any of them?"

She sighed for sadly it is true, he has never cared who her boyfriend is except Cash. Is he really that much of an asshole?

"No need for this topic now, get your books, the bus is here" he stood up and cleared the plates but not without her snatching her toast from it. She had him chuckle and couldn't help but smile too, a single sound from him always get her like that.

Due to the bus having arrived, they were not able to do the dishes and just ran out to catch up with the bus. Seeing them running to catch up, some of his admirers urged the driver to stop and like that they got in the bus.

"Hi Jason, I was the one that told Mike to stop" one of them said immediately they got in.

Jason looked at her and offered his killer smile with a thank you and she blushed. Anna felt her heart clutched, she really wanted to rip off that color from her face, she looked at Jason and was angry at him for smiling at her but she really can't be angry with him, can she?

They both took a seat at the back when Jason turned to chat with some friends and girls. Anna didn't have a friend and that's simply because, they all wanted her brother and she can't afford to sit with a friend who is in love with the same guy as she is, although she can't tell them that.

"Hi Anna" someone called and she turned to see one of her friends or so they thought.

"Hey Lilla" she offered a smile.

"I saw you at Megan's party but before I could walk up to you, you vanished."

"Sorry about that, I left early."

"Is it because Jason was mad at you?"

Anna frowned, how did that become a story? "How did you know that?"

"Well, Christy heard him shouting at you at the balcony and she told Tom and Tom told Lukas and he told Mina and she told Francis and he told Florence and she told Joseph and then he told me" she smiled

Anna stared at her wild eyed, why, aren't they much of a gossipers? How many told who? Look at all the line that went before her "wow. What a nice line of story."

"Sorry about that but you know, the news is kind of new to everyone judging by the fact that he is so protective of you and should anyone do more than glare at you, they receive a warning glance from him and now to hear that he shouted at you, everybody was surprised, me too."

Anna nodded "yea, so why are you asking me now?"

"Well, I just want to ask you know, what you did to get him so fired up and also in a party" Lilla smiled.

"It's just a personal matter, no need to concern yourself with that."

"Okay then, you guys are good now?"

"Yea" Anna replied, ready to drop the conversation.

"Okay then" Lilla smiled and let her be while Anna glanced at Jason to know why he said nothing upon hearing how their news traveled but he appeared to be in a heated discussion with on of his basketball fan. She sighed and rolled her eyes, hoping upon hopes that the matter shouldn't be the new story in school.

"Don't worry, it will die off soon" Jason suddenly said and she looked at him, he smiled "it's school, anything new is always a story, give it a day or two and something else will come up. Besides, they will see us walking into school together as always and will just have to shut up" he ruffled her hair and turned to continue with his discussion.

She sighed, so he was paying attention, she thought as she rest on her seat while looking out the window.

They got to school and all eyes was on them. Anna frowned and suddenly Jason hugged her from behind as they matched to her class "don't worry, when they see us like, they won't have much to say" he smiled and she did too.

Cashmere saw them coming and smiled "hi Anna"

"What are you doing here?" She asked him.

"Waiting to walk you to class, is that bad?" He asked with a raised eyebrow.

Anna looked at Jason and back at him "Jason always walk me to class."

"I know" he replied.

"Since you know then, why were you still waiting?"

"I want to walk you, I'm your boyfriend, is that not right for me do?" He asked. Anna wanted to argue with him but Jason suddenly spoke.

"Its alright, let him walk you" he looked at her and smiled "I will see you at lunch. I love you" he kissed her hair and walked away while Anna sighed. If he doesn't walk her to class then their news is not going to end anytime soon since another one will be up of him not walking her to class. She turned to see Cash smiling and figured he might have done it on purpose.

Did he think she was choosing him over her brother? Dream on, she thought and suddenly regretted her impromptu action last night, of course he will be over himself since she was the one that asked him to be her boyfriend. He might think that she is crazy over him, don't worry just a matter of six more days and it's over, she thought as she walked the way to her class and he rushed to fall into steps with her.

Walking back to his class "Cash a moment" he heard and turned to see Jason resting on the wall with his hands folded on his chest.

"Yea" Cash said and Jason smiled faintly before walking closer to him.

"I'm not against you being with my sister, wait who I'm I kidding? I am totally against you being with my sister but I'm not going to say a thing, it's her choice. Although I don't understand why she have to choose you of all people and I also won't question her again but I'm going to make my state clear and simple. If you are with my sister and you know you want to be with her, I'm just gonna say one thing. Do not hurt her, the day she get to shed a tear for you, is the day you get to see the other side of me" Jason said and turned to walk away.

"You don't threaten me Jason" Cash called after him and he stopped in his track, turned and looked at him.

He smiled "it's not a threat, but a promise" with that he walked off to his class.

Josh scoffed before following after him. He walked into their class and saw Jason already seated at his desk. He tried to get eye contact with him but Jason behaved as if he had no idea he walked in.

It ended up being as Anna predicted, the news was everywhere already that Jason didn't walk her to class which lead some into asking if their fight was still that bad. Some who saw them walking into the school in a half hug manner also concluded that they only put up a front to avoid the whispers and if not, then why didn't he walk her to class?

Is that a big deal? She asked herself as she walked into the cafeteria. Strange, Jason was not sitting with his teammates today, she looked around and saw him sitting alone at a table while flipping through the pages of a book. She smiled as she admired him from a distance, he looked so peaceful and handsome with his shiny blonde hair that seems to catch all the sun rays that seeped into the cafeteria.

She sighed and started walking up to him when someone grabbed her hand, she turned to see Cash smiling at her and she frowned "hey Cash."

"Why don't you sit with me today? We can get to know each other better" he smiled.

She looked at Jason's table and he was looking at them, just what have she brought upon herself? "I'm sorry Cash but Jason is waiting for me."

"Come on Anna, he is your brother, you see him everyday, you share both breakfast, lunch and dinner with him everyday, but this is the only meal you get to share with me in a day" he looked deep at her.

If she should refuse him? Won't that make Jason think she doesn't really like him and she won't be able to act really affected when they break up, she needs to make him think, she was totally into Cash so that her acting will be more pitiful "okay" she agreed and Cash smiled before leading her to his table and not without glancing at Jason and giving him a smile.
