Chapter Six
"What?" Rosalie and Allison chorused as the boys gave silly grins. The truth was that they jointly stalked the two girls for the last few years. Jaden wanted to stalk Rosalie, so he roped in Stuart, his best friend to accompany him. While Jaden was already in love with Rosalie, Stuart fell in love, watching Allison every day.
He purposely bumped into her at a nightclub and things went out of control and they landed at the backseat of his car, making love. It was the best night of his life. He hadn't been able to forget that night and her, so here he was, forcefully living with her to make her fall in love with him.
"Let's go for the date you promised me?" Said Stuart and Allison rolled her eyes.
"It's not a date. It's just a treat to dinner for winning a bet," she corrected him.
"Oh it's all the same. I'll turn it into a date," he said and she huffed and puffed all the way to her car.
"Shall we go home?" Asked Jaden as Rosalie nodded. Jaden started his motorcycle, handing her a helmet. She fixed it upon her head, it was too loose.
"Here, let me tighten that for you," he said and she allowed him. His fingers brushed against her chin and she trembled.
As she climbed behind him, Allison came rushing towards her. She picked her hand and placed a key. "Key to your new lock," she said and Rosalie grinned.
"Thanks," she said. Allison went back to her car.
Jaden started his motorcycle, and Rosalie straddled onto it behind him.
"You need to hold onto me," he said, happily. That was the reason why he brought his motorcycle.
She loosely kept her hand on his shoulder. Jaden wasn't happy. He removed that hand from his shoulder, and placed it around his torso. Feeling a little satisfied, he sped off, screeching to a halt as Rosalie's body slipped closer to his back.
"Hold onto me tightly, " he said. She shyly held tight, her front squashed against his back, her legs brushing his. Happily Jaden sped home. He parked his motorcycle at the basement parking of their building and helped her remove her helmet. They took the elevator and went upstairs.
They reached her apartment and both of them produced a key each! Rosalie grinned inwardly. She had her lock changed, so this time Jaden wouldn't be able to enter so freely.
"You open," she said, suppressing a grin.
"Ok," he said, shrugging his shoulders. He fitted the key in the new lock and viola! The door opened. Rosalie stood shocked. How did he have a set of new keys? Then she remembered his best friend Stuart. He might have given him.
"You have the new keys too?" She glared at him. He scratched his head and chuckled.
"Yeah," he said.
She would now have it changed personally. Then at least she would have her privacy.
"Next time I'll have it changed myself and ensure that you don't have any key," she said, still glaring at him.
He grinned, "Try me. I'll still get the key," he said and she stomped her way inside her apartment, followed by Jaden.
"Thanks for the lift. Don't you have an apartment to go to?" She asked, irritatedly. She wanted to shower and change and relax a little but Jaden was following her around like a lost huge puppy.
"Yeah, but it doesn't have you inside, so I'll stay here, " he said, lounging on her sofa.
She just gave up and went to her bedroom and locked the door. She showered and changed into a blue floral dress and came out of her bedroom.
Her mobile phone buzzed with an SMS. She checked to see a message from Mr McAllister.
I'll come to your new apartment tomorrow, to have dinner with you. Around 7 o'clock.
Allen
Her face fell. She didn't want him to come to her apartment. She didn't want to cook dinner for him. Jaden came over and checked out the SMS from behind her.
He growled with anger."I'll come over and give him a piece of my mind, " he said angrily, his hands turned into fists.
"Noooo, please Jaden. Promise me you won't come while he's here," she said.
"No, I can't promise. What if he tries to kiss you? Has he ever kissed you?" He asked, agitated at the thought.
"Ewww, never. But still you won't come in," she said sternly.
"I will," he said.
"No you won't. Please Jaden, " she pleaded.
"Kiss me then. I might change my mind," he said, wickedly.
"No, anything else but not that. I'm an engaged woman, " she said solemnly.
"That's the only way. Otherwise I'll come in and fight with that old man. A punch will land him at the hospital, for sure," he threatened.
"No you won't do that," she said, widening her eyes in panic. Jennifer won't leave Jaden and her if that happened. Her dad asked her to lay low for a while till he thought about a way. She couldn't take a risk. It was just a kiss. She'd give him his kiss. That was the easiest way.
Jaden turned and walked up to her door. "Wait, I'll kiss you," she said and he grinned. Turning around he walked back to her. He came as close to her as possible, "I'm waiting," he whispered, his face only an inch away.
She stood on her tiptoes and kissed his cheek but he grabbed her by the waist and picked her up, holding her bottom so that her legs were around his waist. He sat down with her on his lap on the nearest sofa.
"What are you doing? I gave you your kiss," she said, squirming to get free.
"You call that a kiss?" He whispered, pulling her closer into him. He claimed her lips hungrily, his tongue parting her lips and plunging in. He deepened the kiss, tasting her tongue, tasting every recess of her mouth. She kissed him back. There was something about him that made her long for his nearness. She knew it was wrong. She knew that she was engaged, but kissing Jaden felt so right. She couldn't imagine kissing Mr McAllister ever. Yuck. Jaden broke the kiss to breathe. Again he claimed her lips. He just couldn't let go. Her response to his kiss ignited a flame in him and he wanted more of her.
"I love you Rosie," he said, when he at last broke the kiss, embedding his face into her neck. "Leave him and be mine. "
"I I can't," she said and Jaden got upset. He placed her down and got up to go.
"Then you leave me no choice," he said threateningly and walked out.
Rosalie sat still on the sofa where he placed her. What would he do? She wanted to break off the wedding but not without her dad's permission. Till then she would have to make Jaden understand.
It was an impossible task to make Jaden understand. He was as stubborn as a mule, but maybe a kiss or two would be able to contain him.
She made dinner and went to bed early, dreading tomorrow's dinner with Mr McAllister. What would she cook for him? She had no idea. She would decide tomorrow after work and go to the supermarket to buy the ingredients.
