Chapter 182 - Sex Education

Jade threw herself on the bed as soon as she got into her room. She hand flew to the spot where Jake had kissed her and she giggled happily. Tonight has been a spectacular one. Her mind ran back to all the beautiful things Jake had said to her and she grinned from ear to ear till they slowly turned red.

"Ah" She exclaimed and sat upright when she remembered she was yet to call Amy and Lair.

She hurriedly picked up her phone and dialled Amy's number first. She'd had to confirm if Lair was home before she could make a conference call of all three of them.

"You had better have some good news for me for disturbing me so late" Amy said as soon as she answered the call.

"Is that how you greet your bestfriend?" Jade asked back faking a frown even though Amy couldn't see it.

"Jade you had better leave me alone. I'm not in a good mood. Being in doors all day is making me depressed. Talk to me only if you have something good that will cheer me up" Amy was really grumpy tonight. She really didn't like the idea of being idle, she hated it. And being at home for days was eating her up.

"I think I have something good for you" Jade giggled falling back on the bed, her belly facing up.

"Really? Then tell me" Amy urged. She immediately sat up on her bed, eager to hear whatever Jade had to tell her. It had better be something nice or else Jade was going to be her first murder victim instead of Lair. "Tell me" She pressed when Jade giggled again.

"He asked me out" Jade said excitedly.

"Who asked you out?" Amy asked in confusion. She didn't know Jade had a suitor. She only knew Jade had a thing for Ja....

"Oh my god" She gasped. "Jake asked you out?" Amy asked in surprise and disbelief.

"Mmmmm" Jade grinned sheepishly, bobbing her head up and down.

"No way!" Amy exclaimed. They were only talking about Jade's feeling a night ago, how had things happened so fast? Jade laughed when Amy ended the call, she knew she was about to receive a video call from her, and indeed Amy's call came in almost immediately.

"Tell me the truth he really asked you out and it wasn't you who did?" Amy asked suspiciously.

"Nope" Jade shook her head. "I was as surprised as you are...okay I was more surprised" She paused and giggled again.

"He said he loves me" Jade said with incredulity, she was still yet to believe it.

Amy gasped in disbelief, "Jake said that?" She asked in disbelief." Jake Beau really said that?" Amy couldn't believe it. Jade bobbed her head vigorously, her smile not leaving her face. Her cheek was probably going to hurt by morning from all the smiling, blushing and grinning.

"I swear Amy, I couldn't believe it. It felt surreal. I'm still in shock" Jade said.

"I can't believe it too. This is so surprising and unexpected" Amy said excitedly. This was indeed great news. She couldn't believe Jake was truly in love with her friend.

"mmm mmm" Jade nodded affirmatively, she couldn't stop smiling.

"Well I can't believe you now have a boyfriend, and it's really Jake Beau " Amy squealed excitedly.

"Who has a boyfriend?" Lair asked as he leisurely strolled into Amy's room, his hands buried in his pocket. It was time for ward round and he had come to check on his only patient.

"Jade got herself a man" Amy replied excitedly, completely surprising Lair. He rushed over to Amy and snatched her phone from her.

"Baby is that true? You now have a boyfriend?" Lair asked in surprise and disbelief.

"Yep" Jade replied with a smile.

"You dumped me? After I've nursed your broken heart you dare dump me?" He asked faking a pained expression.

"Oh yes I did" Jade replied with a playful pout, making Lair chuckle.

"Tell me is it the casanova guy?" Lair curiously asked.

"Don't call him that" Jade warned faking a frown, "And yes he's the one" Jade added.

"Woah that's quick. I guess your virginity is not going to last then" He said plonking down on the bed.

"Lair!!" Amy and Jade called simultaneously.

"What?" He snapped, with an innocent look on his face.

"You can't say that to her. It's going to embarrass her" Amy explained."No wonder you're still single" Amy hissed, as she rolled her eyes at him.

Amy crawled to plant herself behind Lair so she could see Jade. "Baby don't mind him. We both know he's still a virgin at thirty, i guess that's why he's still so clueless" She said to Jade.

"Who said I am?" Lair retorted.

"Are you not?" Amy arched a brow.

"Just shut up"

Lair returned his attention back to the phone to look at Jade. "Are you embarrassed? You can't feel embarrassed with me, I was your best friend first before she poached you from me, and secondly I'm a medical doctor so I have to tell you stuff like that, and thirdly I'm the older one here and lastly I'm a guy so I can educate more on a and guys, mostly on experienced ones like your new boyfriend"

"That's the blind leading the blind. Don't forget you also lack experience" Amy said tauntingly.

"Okay that's enough. Don't scare my baby. You can say all those things to me but not my sweet and innocent angel" Amy said snatching her phone back from Lair.

"Who said I'm scaring her. I just want to inform her about the importance of safe sex and risk of STD's" He retorted.

"Well it's not necessary. Go lecture your students..shoo mother hen" Amy shooed him away while glaring at him, before returning her attention back to Jade

"Jade I'm going to call you and we're going to have that talk. I don't want to have you as my patient on cases I wouldn't like to handle" Lair said fro. across the room before walking out.

"I'm definitely not picking up" Jade replied in her mind.

"So why are you suddenly quiet lover girl?" Amy teased when she observed how quiet Jade had become. "Don't tell me you're taking his words seriously?" Amy asked.

Jade sighed when she heard her, she wasn't quiet because of what Lair had said...okay more like his words reminded her she was keeping a secret from her friends, one she was so embarrassed to share. They had vowed never to keep things from each other, but here she was keeping one from them.

"No that's no it...."

"Well forget about that, when is he taking you out on a date..." Amy asked excitedly, "I can't wait for it" She chirped expectantly.

"This weekend" Jade replied with a happy smile, when she remembered Jake was taking her out on a date.

"Really? Do you have what to wear? I mean something hot and sexy, you have to look extremely beautiful. So tell me do you need my help, because I know you do. You know I can plan a big party from my bed" She said pridefully.

Jade gasped when Amy mentioned the word 'party'. She suddenly remembered the one she had to go with Jake tomorrow.

"What is it?" Amy asked with concern.

"Amy I need your help" Jade said in horror, as she sat upright.

"I know you do, but do you have to be so dramatic about it?" Amy hissed irritably.

"It's not for the date" Jade explained.

"Then for what?" Amy asked curiously.

"For a party"

"A party? What party?" Amy asked inquisitively.

"A party with Jake. He invited me for a party tomorrow. And I don't have what to wear for it. I don't even know what to wear" Jade panicked.

"Tomorrow? And you're just saying it now? You're unbelievable. What kind of party?" She inquired.

"I don't know. I think it might be related to work or something" She guessed. Jake didn't tell her, neither did she ask.

"Work?" Amy went quiet. There was only party she knew of, it was the annual charity ball of the company and it was rumoured the CEO wouldn't be in attendance this year, as a matter of fact Jake hasn't been in attendance for the last five years...well, then his grandfather was still the CEO. Was that the party Jake had invited her? It had got to be it.

"Jade I think you have a lot to prepare for" Amy chirped excitedly.

"I know right. Amy you've got to help me" Jade said in a desperate and pleading tone.

"of course I know I have to. Don't worry we'll go pick up something for you to wear after you close from work tomorrow. I'll do your hair and makeup for you okay. You'll look pretty and lover boy would be swoon off his feet" Amy will fully rendered her services.

"Are you sure you can do that? Maybe I can snap the gowns from the shop and send you the pictures or maybe we make a video call while you help me pick one. You're still recovering"

"If I stay on this bed one more day I'm sure I'll kill Lair. I want to keep myself busy at least till I go back to work. So I'm doing this" Amy said with a tone of finality.

"Okay" Jade gave in. She truly needed Amy there in the first place.

"I'll pick you up tomorrow okay"

"Okay"

"Good night, I love you"

"Love you too baby" Jade replied, before hanging up.. A smile crept up her face when she remembered Jake had said those same words to her.
