Chapter 290 - A Love Curse

Jade waited for Amy at the bus stop so they could leave for the concert which they were both running late for. She looked around her when she felt that familiar feeling she had felt days ago. She had this ominous feeling of being watched by someone but she couldn't see anyone around her.

"Jade," She heard her name. She stood up and looked around her, but there was no one there. She felt uneasy in her heart. This was beginning to creep her out.

Jade stood up from the bench to look behind the bus stop stand but that was when her phone rang.

She whipped out her phone from her bag and a sweet smile broke on her face.

"This is the fourth time you're calling me, Mr Beau, do you miss me that much?" She asked with a smile.

"Ms Peterson, are you complaining?" Jake asked back smilingly. Jade could tell he was smiling.

"Not really, my boyfriend is just being too clingy, but I like it."

"I know you do. So tell me, are you there yet?" Jake asked.

"No, I'm at the bus stop waiting for Amy."

"Bus stop? Why bus stop? You should have waited at home." He asked in a quite displeased tone.

"Amy was running late, so I decided to wait for her so we wouldn't waste any more time." She explained.

Jake hissed, he didn't like the idea of her waiting by the roadside especially when it was this late. "You should have let me take you there," Jake told her.

He had offered to take her to the venue of the concert but Jade had blatantly refused. Asking him to go home and take some rest, because after he dropped her off this morning, lover boy had refused to go home and had stayed in her house all morning playing games with Kevin and helping ruin the cupcakes she had helped her mother bake for the shop, all in the name of helping.

"There's no need for that–" She trailed when she heard the honking sound of a car behind her. She looked and it was Amy.

"And my ride has just arrived. I've got to go."

"Okay, take care. Be careful out there." He told her.

"Sure I will. I'll call you later okay?"

"Okay. I lov–" He slurred when he heard the beeping sound of the phone, indicating that the call has been disconnected.

Jade hopped into the car which has been horning continuously.

"Nice ride." She teased her friend the moment she stepped into the car.

"Yeah, Lair is going to kill us."

"Kill you." Jade pointed out. She didn't need anyone to tell her that this naughty girl had stolen her brother's car, again. She had a thing for riling Lair up by stealing his car.

"Well you're sitting in it, so be rest assured we're both getting a good scold from him," Amy told her, while Jade snorted. Lair should try and scold her.

"Let's go." Amy chirped before zooming off.

"How's lover boy?" Amy curiously asked.

"Fine" Jade replied, causing Amy to cock a brow at her.

She turned to look at Jade, "Details Jade, details. Give me some details, I'm dying to know what happened!" Amy urged excitedly while Jade smiled. Amy couldn't help but notice her smile.

"Something happened you spoilt girl. Tell me about it. I want every lewd detail. Was he good? Did he you know." Amy winked suggestively at Jade, who in turn shook her head at her friend's craziness.

"Well nothing like you suspected happened, but I don't mind sparing you some details, but you'll need some holy water to wash your ears afterwards," Jade told her, making Amy gasps excitedly.

"I'm excited already. He's that good huh?"

"Shut up Amy. I'm not sharing the details. I can't embarrass my man like that." Jade told her, but Amy didn't want to hear that.

"Jade I'm dying here. I helped you, you know. Just some small details won't kill you. And after all, I was your friend first before Jake." Amy tried to cajole her, but Jade scoffed.

"Maybe when you and Mr dreamy start something steamy then we can exchange details. But I can tell you it was the best night of my life and he asked me to marry him." Jade announced with a grin, making Amy's eyes pop with shock.

"Really?" She asked in surprise, while Jade vigorously nodded her head causing Amy to squeal excitedly.

Her eyes flew to Jade's ring finger, "Where's the ring?" She asked when she didn't see a shiny rock on it.

"Well, he's yet to get me one but–" Jade slurred when Amy started squealing again.

"This is great news. I'm going to be a maid of honour soon!" She chirped excitedly making Jade chuckle. Seems Amy was more excited than her.

"And dreamy would be the best man." Jade winked at her smilingly. On hearing Jade's comment, Amy's smile wavered which Jade took note of. She sighed when she saw the wry smile on Amy's face.

"What's the progress with him?"Jade asked in a concerned and serious tone, while Amy sighed deflatedly.

Was there any progress between her and that dense boy? She doesn't even know.

Amy hissed and shrugged, "Sincerely I don't know." Amy answered with a dull voice.

"He keeps giving me mixed vibes every time and I can't tell how he truly feels about me" She paused and took a glance at Jade before returning her eyes to the road.

"You know I love him right? And even when I try to stop having feelings for him, I just keep falling deeper for him. It's like a love curse." She hissed in frustration.

Jade felt sad when she saw the sadness in her friend's eyes.

"But anyway I gave him two weeks to discover his feelings for me or I'll date someone else."

"You did that?" Jade asked with disbelief. Her eyes flew wide open, she wasn't expecting that. "Really?" she asked while Amy nodded.

"So what did he say?" Jade curiously inquired.
