Get A Grip

Jack's POV

"I am sorry for kissing you unexpectedly, Cel. I knew I should have told you what happened last night, but it was too late. Charlotte suddenly appeared at the kitchen door, and I felt so angry with her that I wanted to teach her a lesson she wouldn't forget," I said after I let go of her.

"Do you think it was worth it?" Cecily asked with concern in her face, and my face fell.

"I don't know, maybe I lost my chance on her, but she was too much," I responded and told her what happened between Charlotte and me after I talked with Hunter.

"Jack, I told you to be patient with her. I don't want to ruin our friendship. I like her, and judging by the expression on her face, she didn't like what she saw," Cecily replied, and I half laughed.

"Are you serious? She wasn't affected at all, and she even told us to continue what we were doing. Charlotte is heartless, Cecily," I declared as I put my hands over the kitchen countertop.
