Chapter 64

AMY

Another secret relationship with my forever love . Yeah that's right . We are doing great in our life . It's been months since that bullshit happened with Travis and Caroline . Jason always makes sure Travis won't come anywhere near me again .

To be honest I was really scared when he totally turned someone I had never imagined. Luckily I found out it is better to listen to your inner self and come true to your feelings .

I admit that I never forget about Jason and I have always loved him . Even when he wasn't with me , he was right there in my heart at a safer place . He is the only good thing ever happened to me . I now wish that we could just live happily without those fucking disheartening problems .

I came clean with my friends . Ciara obviously overreacted and came back with Asher. But they had some important projects to finish so I assured her that I was totally okay. Moreover Jason always keeps me in his sight . Feels like he would die without seeing me everyday . When I asked he said "I want to make up for the lost time ."

Yup he is a real sweetheart . Sweetheart of my life .

Today I'm finally going on the big stage to represent our efforts . I'm gonna make sure I won't let anyone down . Today is the big day for what I was recruited first into this company. That is what my contract says but we all know why I was forced to stay.

"Today , I'll present a special piece for someone special ." I bowed to the audience and guests of honor before playing my favorite piece . I wrote this song myself . Of Course it is for us . For Jason and me . For the difficulties we went through .

I peeped at him sitting in the front row . He smiled and I returned . He has always loved and cherished me . Now this is my time . My time to run towards him and give him what he deserves . All the love I have bottled up should be opened and drunk by him .

I played the song I wrote and named it 'Our Milestones' .

After I finished , applause and cheering filled the room . I bowed once again, getting up . I even got a standing ovation from the sweet audience .

"Miss Amelia , may we know who this special person is?" Erick shouted . That jerk knows everything . Troublesome is what he is . I give him a scary dead look from the stage .

Out of nowhere . Jason started walking towards the stage . I got nervous . Really nervous . Freaking hell . What is he doing? I'm gonna run . But I'm shaking .

He ran to me and without a single warning he pulled me into a passionate , soft and loving kiss . Suddenly everything stopped . Time stopped . Air stopped . I couldn't hear anything . I couldn't see anything . The new sensation of his gentle and smooth touch on my bare back filled me up .

I want to stay like this eternally .

"I love you ." Jason whispered loudly , resting his head on mine . Cupping both sides of my face .

"I love you more." I smiled , sinking into his touch .

Then I realize we are on the goddamn freaking stage and every single eye is on us . The fuck my parents . I forgot . Fuck .FUck .Fuck . I haven't told them yet . They don't know about Jason . They must be looking at me . I don't want to look in that direction .

God this is embarrassing .

We went backstage and there they were . Mom and Dad and Beth . Ugh . I need to run . I turned on my heels and was about to run away . But Jason Grabbed me, pulling me back into him .He placed his hand on my shoulder .

I looked at Mom and awkwardly chuckled .

"Hey let go." I whispered , trying not to get scared .

"Mrs. Harper , Mr. Harper and Miss Beth , Can we talk?" He said , ignoring me .

"We surely should , right Amelia Harper?" My mom said , in a scary voice . Yeah that wasn't a question . It was more of a command that says follow me or otherwise sacrifice yourself .

I gulped hard and followed them . We went into the room where they had chairs and it was empty . Everyone sat except for me and Jason . I looked at him , angrily .

And This man had the audacity to say 'What?'

You gotta be kidding me Jason . If you aren't prepared for this already . I'm gonna get killed first and then I'm gonna kill you .

"Explain , young lady." My mom said in that ruthless tone . I'm really going to die .

" I .. Mom .. I .. I mean .. We." Before I could say anything Jason interrupted.

"Mrs. Harper we are in a relationship ."

WHAT.THE.FUCK.ARE.YOU.DOIN'?

Wow this man . God . What should I do with him?

"Uhh , it's not like what you think mom . It is not like what it looks like . It . I mean yeah he is right . I mean I wanted to tell you but things were pretty hectic. I didn't get the chance . I'm sorry. Please show mercy." I don't know what I just did. I have no freaking clue what I just babbled .

"OH . Well , weren't you her teacher with whom she had a love scandal at school?" Mom said , leaving us in a great state of shock. How does she know?

"What are you looking at?" she said , giving me shivers. "You think we won't know what happened ?"

"Well , before you took leave . We got a message from the education board office . Then your sister came clean ." She continued .

I gave Beth shallow eyes . She betrayed the sisterhood .

"Amelia, Look." Mom stood up and held my hands . "We love you okay? You need to let us know when you are having a hard time . What do you think parents are for? We are here so that you can lean on us when you face difficulties . No matter what you do or how big you grow , you will always be my little girl ."

"And you young man . If you ever made my girl a wreck ever again , I'll make sure you regret it forever , Understood?" Jason nodded innocently and I chuckled . He is so quiet .

"Now , If we are clear then let's go out for dinner ."Mum suggested .

We had dinner . Jason and Dad have quite a similar understanding . Besides, he is an expert on obsequiousness . He didn't even feel like an outsider . It felt like we were having a warm family dinner .

All we ever need in our lives is this . After going through this much I came to a conclusion that no matter how hard you try you are going to suffer harder and harder. But this suffering can become less of a burden if we share it with someone who really cares for us .

Sometimes we just need to face our true self . Sometimes our feelings are all we need to follow . Guts can become the cause of prolonged happiness and worries . You just need to choose a path where people always welcome you with smiling faces and warm hugs .
