Not long after everyone else ca downstairs for breakfast and the table was very lively.
"Where did you guys go last night?" Laura asked Nancy and Leanna curiously.
"There is a club a few minutes away, it's pretty exclusive." Jason answered Laura.
"Ooh, it must have been fun" Laura said slightly enviously.
"You didn't want to co along since you were taking advantage of that beauty over there" Jason teased and pointed at Jas who was in a bad mood since he was practically drunk all day yesterday.
He only had a glass of water in front of him that he could barely drink and the only thing that saved Jason was that Jas was seated quite so distance from him and he was too hungover to care about him teasing him.
"Beauty?" Nancy asked in puzzlent and followed the direction of where Jason was pointing and saw Jas' glare towards Jason. She felt slight chills when she saw his glare and looked down at her plate and silently ate her toast.
"Your doing an additional drama" Jas said with a smile that did not reach his eyes and Jason shut his mouth after that.
He knew that if he continued teasing him, Jas' retaliation would compensate the teasing he did the previous night.
"Aren't you going to eat at all?" Jen asked Jas worriedly.
"I don't think I can stomach anything" Jas said and rubbed his eyes.
"I'll fix you so tea" Jen said and went to the kitchen without waiting for anyone to say anything.
"Is she normally like that?" Jas asked Lucas who was looking at her disappearing back.
"She does whatever she wants, there's no point stopping her" Lucas said as he shrugged his shoulders. Without anyone noticing Laura had also slipped away to the kitchen.
"What are you doing here?" Jen asked when she saw Laura walk in.
"Are you making ginger tea?" Laura asked and pointed at the ginger Jen was peeling.
"Yes," Jen replied as she continued peeling it.
"I'll do it" Laura said.
"I thought you hated cooking" Jen said with a slight frown on her face.
"Just let " Laura said and took the ginger from Jen's hand while she wasn't paying attention.
"What's going on?" Jen asked while feeling puzzled.
"It's nothing" Laura answered as she took a grater and started grating the ginger.
"Do you like Jas?" Jen asked unable to hold back anymore. She waited for an answer but it seed that Laura was determined to maintain her silence.
"Should I ask him directly?" Jen threatened.
"I asked him if he would date yesterday" Laura confessed.
"For real?" Jen asked with her eyebrows raised.
"Mmh" Laura answered as she put the grated ginger into the pot of boiling water and covered it.
"Have you lost your mind? Wasn't yesterday your first eting?" Jen asked in puzzlent.
"I know it's crazy, but it's the first ti I ever imagined myself with sobody. Besides, he thinks i'm cute" Laura replied.
"Eh? so you decided to date him because he thinks you're cute?" Jen asked feeling even more confused.
"No, that's not it. I decided to date him because for the first ti i'm attracted to soone. If I don't take action, I know i'll regret it" Laura said and smiled towards Jen as if she was reassuring her.
"You decided on him?" Jen asked Laura who was now washing her hands.
"Mmh" Laura responded.
"What did he say" Jen asked purely out of curiosity rather than concern.
"He wanted us to wait until today to have a proper talk, but I told him that I wouldn't talk about it with him today if he did not give a proper answer" Laura responded. As she talked, she realised how outrageous she was being the whole ti.
"Oh, you have balls girl" Jen said and patted her shoulder.
"Mmh" Laura responded while trying to figure out whether expressing her interest first may have put her at a disadvantage.
"Since you decided on taking the girlfriend role seriously, then I'll leave you to make tea for my brother-in-law" Jen said and turned around to walk out the kitchen.
"Can you wait a second, wouldn't it be too obvious to the others?" Laura asked in her anxiety.
"Well, are you planning on keeping him a secret?" Jen asked in amusent.
"No, but-"
"Well then you might as well take this opportunity to announce your pairing" Jen said and slipped out of the kitchen.
After about ten minutes, Laura strained the tea and put it in a thermos that she brought out with a steaming cup of ginger tea.
"Do you want sugar with it?" Laura asked Jas once she set the mug in front of him.
"Mmh, but I can g-" Jas didn;t complete his sentence before the sugar was placed in front of him.
"Thank you" Jas said as he watched Laura go back to her seat. He was flustered since he had never been served sothing so exclusively in front of so many people before. In addition to that, Jen was the one who said she was going to make him sothing. how did it beco Laura all of a sudden?
Jen was only watching them in amusent, but not everyone had noticed since they were all being loud while talking to each other, but Laura had gone back to her seat and continued having her breakfast as if she was completely unbothered by what happened, unfortunately, her body betrayed her as her cheeks had reddened considerably.
Jas looked at Laura's reddened face and smiled. He couldn't help but think that she was being cute, and if they were alone he would have said it. However, in the presence of Jason and his friends he decided to stop himself.
After they were all done with breakfast, Jen said that she wanted to go horseback riding so Lucas decided to take her. Laura and Jas followed at a distance and Rachel and Brian had disappeared before anyone realised it.
Jen did not know what happened between those two but she hoped that no one would co out hurt.
