Chapters (20)
"You took your time." He grumbles at me the minute I get in. I don’t even want to tell him I know that he could have heard my conversation with Freddy, so he knows why I was delayed.
"I'm sorry but have I done something to piss you off? I get the feeling you don't like me." I ask him as I pull my seatbelt on.
Jaxson looks at me for a while and I get the feeling he is trying to come up with an answer but he shakes his head and just starts driving.
"Right, no answer," I murmur under my breath but I know he heard me by the twitch of his lips.
"I can pick you up on Monday at four, give me your phone," he asks holding out his hand.
"No," I say.
"No?" He questions with a quick glare at me before looking back at the road.
"You do know what no means right? You’re not having my number unless you ask nicely because so far all you have done is demand stuff." I tell him and cross my arms staring him down as he drives.
"You are unbelievable lass. I don't ask anything nicely but fine." he groans before saying tensely.
"Please may I have your number?" He asks with his hands clenching the steering wheel so tight I’m afraid he might break it. I can't help but laugh my head off at how tense he sounds, which even makes him smile then eventually laugh with me.
"Sure," I say wiping my tears away and smiling back at him.
"You should smile more lass; you look lovely when you do." I blush under his gaze before turning to look at the window. I watch as he puts his number on my phone while still driving like a crazy person down thankfully empty roads. We don’t talk for the rest of the drive and I find myself drifting off to sleep as we pass lots of trees.
"We're here." Jaxson’s voice drifts through my mind and a large hand is shaking me gently by my shoulder to wake me up, I open my eyes to see his close to mine. He has really bright eyes that draw you in; I find it hard to look away as I wake up.
"I don't have to go over the whole 'you can't tell anyone about us' thing right?" He says with a small grin at me as he hands my phone. I notice how it really suits him, looking less angry and happier for once.
"Yeah I get it, plus anyone would think I'm mad." I laugh and hop out the car before I shut the door I say,
"You look nice when you smile too Jaxson."
I see his shocked face before I turn and walk back to my apartment that seems really empty without that annoying wolf around.
