Chapter 4 Raising suspicions

[HOME]

Lexi gave Jasmine no breathing space and started romancing her when they got to her room.

"Jazz, were learning more today" he said in between their kisses.

"what are you going to teach me?" her hands were wrapped around his neck.

".. what I and Alicia normally do"

"No.. no Lexi" she moved away from him.

"Jasmine, every guy likes a girl who is experienced and can drive them crazy, apart from not loosing it to a random person, I'll make you experienced and no guy would want to leave a girl like you" he explained.

"but I don't think this is how relationships are" she shook her head trying hard not to believe Lexi.

"you don't have to do it if you don't want" he came off her.

"you're making me feel like I'm standing between you and Alicia" she said guiltily.

"I'm sorry if helping you was a wrong decision" he stood up and prepared to leave.

"Lexi.." she held him. "please go easy on me" she sobbed and he smiled. He enveloped her and had s£x with her, each side gaining equal pleasure.

"Did you like it?" Lexi asked Jasmine as soon as they ended their little play, she was lying on his chest.

"Yeah but it still hurts down there"

"Don't worry, today is the only time you'll feel pain" she stroked her arm gently. During the time he was making out with her, she tried hard not to think it was wrong but she finally asked the question she was afraid of:

"won't I get pregnant?" she asked him.

"you can't get pregnant on your first sex" he pecked her head. He always does that whenever he was reassuring her.

"Okay" she trusted him and started dozing.

"My jasmine" He said affectionately before joining her in sleeping.

[NEXT DAY]

Alicia was in her own apartment washing clothes with the machine when her phone vibrated in her pocket.

1 UNREAD MESSAGE

She tapped on it and it displayed an SMS from an unknown number.

DO YOU TRUST YOUR BOYFRIEND, LEXI - UNKNOWN.

YES AND WHO IS THIS - ALICIA.

I WANT TO REMAIN ANONYMOUS BUT PLEASE DON'T BLOCK ME. WHAT IF I GIVE YOU A REASON TO DOUBT HIM - UNKNOWN.

WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO BREAK US APART, ARE YOU MY SECRET ADMIRER - ALICIA.

A picture was sent to get and it content was her loving Lexi and a girl, the angle looked like the picture was taken in an hidden place and Lexi's hand were clutching to Jasmine's butt. Her heart sped!

WHAT ABOUT NOW? - UNKNOWN.

She exited from the chat and tried her best not to freak out by what she just saw. She has always not like the close relationship between Jasmine and Lexi but she had to be silent because she makes him happy.

But what if the picture was Photoshopped and the person was trying to get in between them. No!

Her stomach began to rumble at that time and hurt her. She stopped the machine from operating and stood up from where she was squatting earlier. She advanced groggily to her medicine cabinet to get some menstrual pain relief tablets but she discovered she had ran out of it.

Maybe it was as a result of the killer pain she was feeling or because of the realization that she might be heartbroken anytime soon but the tears from her eyes won't stop flowing out for no reason.

She hurriedly got out of the apartment and went to a convenience store that was not too far from her street.

[JASMINE AND LEXI'S APARTMENT]

Jasmine's mind wasn't calm since she woke up. She has to be careful, if it results to a mistake.. she'll be blamed for being reckless.

"Help me with my zipper" It's a Saturday and she already made plans to meet with her mum. She turned her back to Lexi but naughty him pulled it down and wanted to pull her jumpsuit down.

"what are you doing" she managed to escape from his hold, she passed him a frown but he winked at her instead.

"You know Mum would've been waiting" she whined.

"Okay I'm sorry" he sighed before turning her around and pulling the zip up.

"Do you have any plans for today?" she asked him.

"No, I'm just going to do some assignments, extend my greetings to Aunt Claire"

"Okay, go back to your room.." she kissed him and left the house. She got into her car and branched to a convenience store before going to get mum's place.

She darted straight to the adult nerdiness and took out a pack of cøndøms. She was still examining whether it was good enough when a familiar voice spoke.

"Jazz, you're here too" she looked up and saw Alicia.

"Hey Alicia, what a coincidence.. what did you come to get"

"nothing much, just some sanitary napkins and drugs.. I see you got yourself a boyfriend now" Alicia stared at the cøndøms in Jasmine's hand and Jasmine subconsciously hid it behind her back.

"erm, I .. it's not what you think" She tried to explain but it only raised Alicia's suspicions even more, she clearly remembered Jasmine getting stood up again. We're Jasmine and Lexi sleeping together?

".. I'll get going" Alicia said and left so that things won't get awkward.

"Did she suspect anything?" Jasmine breathed and took some birth control drugs too and went ahead to settle her bills.

°°°°

If only 'beautiful' could be used as an adjective for a man, that would've been the best word to describe the shirtless masculine figure that was laying on his bed but the frown he had on his face had to ruin it all.

"How the fvck did she get my number" It isn't enough that he left the reunion so early because of how close she was touching him and now.. she won't stop sending her nudes to him no matter how hard he tries to ignore it.

He used to like her but not anymore, how did things turn this round?

"Aiden, can you come give the Kims this fruit basket while I go visit my friend?"

"what do I have to be the one to run errands? it makes me look like the poor boy trying to curry favor from the prestigious family" he groaned.

"well, that's partially right.. if you play the role of the good boy right, they might lend a hand in your admission process or sponsor your studies. Yunno things are not that going well in my work place..."

"Yeah Mum, I understand.. I'll try to act like a good boy" he collected the basket and went out.

°°°°

Jasmine went to visit her mother.

"mother" she hugged her as soon as she got to the house.

"look at you, you've grown taller than me in how many days"

"mum come on, it's just the heels" she rolled her eyes.

"Whatever, I guess Lexi is taking care of you"

"well.. he is" she nodded "how is dad?"

"he's on his usual business trips.. Rahila! come prepare some food for my daughter" her mum called and maid rushed out.

"Welcome home young mistress" she bowed before hurrying back to the kitchen.

"Let's sit and have a chat before it gets ready" she said and they sat on the cushion.

"so.. how's your studies, read quickly so you can take over your dad's company"

"Mum, were over this, I'll never do business in my life" They were still bickering when the butler came in and interrupted them.

"madam, young master Clothier is here" he bowed in courtesy and a young guy passed beside him and appeared.

"Aiden, how are you" Claire stood up and went to hug him.

"Aunt Claire, my mum asked me to give you this fruit basket" he said and gave her the basket.

He was smiling politely when his eyes moved to the younger version of Claire seated on the couch. The resemblance is too much and that reminded him of the lady at the bar.. it's her!

His eyes couldn't leave her and when Jasmine noticed how intently he was staring at her, she waved to greet him.

"I.. " he really wish to collect her number but won't it be rude if it's in the presence of her mum.

"I'll get going" he left.

"Do you like him?" her mum asked as she noticed her staring at him till he left.

"whaaat, you're impossible mum!!" she blushed really hard.

"that's our neighbor and his mum has a fruit farm, I can hook you up with him if you want"

"Mummy!!" Jasmine blushed uncontrollably.
