Frankly, it became another day down at Rumble Juice as business began running smoothly, which wasn't interesting since the place became less busy due to less customers. One customer in face, sat in one of the sofas, while waiting for a certain girl to come by and enjoy his company.
In fact, Logan Watson was that guy. And believe it or not, Jasmine Kang was the girl he was waiting on. Apparently, the two decided to fake date in order to make their crushes, which were Jenna and Mike, jealous. Their fake relationship didn't sit very well with their friends at first, but when they informed Lindy, Garrett and Delia of this, they decided to support them.
So far, the relationship was working like clockstoppers. Jasmine was being taken to dates that even her ex-boyfriends would even think of taking her due to being lazy. Endless trips for smoothies, long walks in the park, and endless times they had to see that awesome zombie romance flick was way too much for Jasmine to handle. And she actually liked that from Logan, including the flowers that he gave to her from a funeral.
However, the fake relationship started to finally get on Lindy's nerves. She couldn't stand having to see her brother and her best friend act all so lovey-dovey around each other. So she gave them an ultimatum, If they really liked each other for real, then they should at least express how Logan and Jasmine feel about each other.
Somehow, Lindy's words hit Jasmine like a big nasty brick. With all the dates Logan has taken her and the compliments that she gave to her, maybe it was time to tell him how she really felt all this time.
That's why she came here to Rumble Juice in the first place. After a big deep breath, Jasmine decided to go for the kill.
"Hey Logan, can I talk to you?" Jasmine replied.
"Yeah, sure." Logan nodded as Jasmine took a seat next to him. "What's up?"
"So, uh, I've been thinking about what Lindy said," Jasmine responded. "And it's totally crazy, but we've been spending a lot of time together, and it's really been a lot of fun. And um, we have been friends forever so-"
"Here, Logan." A girl said, cutting Jasmine off. "Ready to go?"
Suddenly, Jasmine looked up to see Jenna with both smoothies in hand. It was the same girl who Logan wanted to see jealous. From the carefree look on her face, she wasn't jealous at all. With a hungry look on his face, Logan took one of the smoothies from her crush while Jasmine felt a bit upset inside her heart. However, it was wise for her not to let it show on the outside.
"Ohh, Jenna." Jasmine bluntly replied.
"Hi, Jasmine." Jenna greeted her.
"Oh, Jenna and I are gonna go see a movie." Logan said to Jasmine, who feigned a smile. But then, he turned back to Jenna. "Can you give me a minute?"
"Sure!" Jenna nodded as she left outside.
This left both Logan and Jasmine to continue their little one-on-one conversation.
"Isn't this great?" Logan smirked. "I ran into Jenna and told her you and I broke up, and she was totally into me. Just like you'd said she'd be."
"That's great, Logan." Jasmine smiled. "I'm happy for you."
"Thanks, I bet Mike comes around soon, too." Logan smiled as well.
"Yeah, we'll see." Jasmine nodded.
"So what we're you saying before?" Logan raised his eyebrow.
He was right. What was Jasmine really about to say to Logan right before Jenna had to step in the picture like that? Unfortunately, Jasmine had forgotten what to say to him now. So she had no choice but to pass.
"Nothing, it's not important." Jasmine replied. "Go have a great time."
"Okay, see ya later!" Logan exclaimed as he got out of his seat and out to the door.
And as Jasmine looked on, she took another deep breath and sighed.
Unfortunately, it wasn't a sigh of happiness. This time, she felt a bit sad and disappointed. Sad and disappointed on the fact that she didn't get a chance to tell Logan about her true feelings. She knew her heart was at the right place, but sadly, it wasn't at the right time. From there, Jasmine felt all alone and defeated, having the thoughts of her 'fake' boyfriend swapping spit with Jenna at the movies.
While she was minutes away from soaking it up, her best friend Garrett came in the store feeling quite ecstatic.
"Hey Jasmine, feels good doesn't it?" Garrett smirked.
"Oh, it's going great." Jasmine said, feigning a smile again. "You look so giddy. What's up with you?"
"I finally get to sit on the bench again!" Garrett smirked again. "All of those weeks of having to sit on the equipment bag are dead and gone. If they think they can steal Garrett Spenger's bench, they got another thing coming, let me tell ya."
"Yeah, you're probably the master." Jasmine rolled her eyes.
"That's what Delia said." Garrett nodded as he took a seat alongside Jasmine. "So, how's it going between you and Logan?"
"Oh, it's fine." Jasmine feigned a smile again. "We've been fake dating just to make sure the girl Logan had a crush on was jealous. Turns out that it worked. I'm pretty sure Logan's very happy with what he got. I'm proud of him."
However, Garrett could notice Jasmine's leg twitching up and down in total jealousy.
"Are you sure about that?" Garrett raised his eyebrow.
"Yeah, I'm very sure." Jasmine nodded.
"Um, why is your leg twitching?" He replied.
"Hey, I can't help it if it does that." She replied back. "It's not like I'm jealous that Logan's with someone that isn't me. That sounds silly."
"Okay, suit yourself." Garrett shrugged a little before sipping on his smoothie.
Suddenly, there was now silence between Jasmine and Garrett. The silence was so tense between the two that it felt a bit quiet inside their minds. Jasmine on the other hand, felt her leg shake a bit violently. Apparently, something wasn't right about this at all (basically from Jasmine's standards). So Garrett wanted to know why. But since he didn't want to butt in, he thought Jasmine's reaction could say it best.
So after feeling her leg shake again, Jasmine finally decided to give up.
"Okay, I give up!" Jasmine shouted.
"I knew it." Garrett rolled his eyes.
"I think the reason why I came here was to tell Logan how I really feel about him!" Jasmine cried out. "I mean, Logan's not like any other guy I've dated. Logan is way different than anyone else! I mean, he's nice, he's funny and he's quite a gentleman around me! I mean, even if I was with Mike, he wouldn't be what Logan is. I know he's a bit of a moron on the outside, but deep down, I just really like him on the inside! I just feel so stupid that I've could've told him earlier instead of later."
Garrett didn't know what to make of this. I mean, he felt so bad for Jasmine that all she wanted to do was roll up into a ball and move into a dark place where she could hear nothing but water drop. It suddenly reminded Garrett of the times he would usually be alone without a girlfriend. But there was no way Garrett would ever think about being lonely and single for so long.
Meanwhile, all he could do was deal with Jasmine's whining.
"I need someone to hold." Jasmine pouted. "Hold me."
Suddenly, as Jasmine was hugging him, she ended up blowing her nose on Garrett's cardigan shirt. That of course, disturbed him.
"Really, my shirt?" Garrett replied.
"What am I gonna do, Garrett?" Jasmine sighed. "Logan's with Jenna and now I'm all alone."
Garrett didn't know what to do to be exact. So far, the only thing Garrett did was rub and pat Jasmine right on the shoulder for extra comfort.
"Look, you're not alone." Garrett replied again.
"Yes, I am." Jasmine muffled inside his shirt.
"Jasmine, as a friend, I'm saying that Logan still cares about you." Garrett smirked.
However, this caught her attention as she looked up to the neat-freak.
"You think so?" Jasmine replied.
"Well, sure." Garrett shrugged. "I mean, it's not over for you. I'm pretty sure somewhere along the way, Logan's gonna be less interested in her. Jasmine Kang, I can guarantee you that my best friend is waaaaaaay more perfect for you. It's just a little phase that he's going through, that's all."
"So, there could be a chance for me to show Logan who I truly am?" Jasmine said, feeling her heart beat with anticipation.
"Definitely!" Garrett nodded. "If I can bounce back as my position as main benchwarmer, you can bounce back from this mess! You're Jasmine! You are unstoppable! And nothing, especially no one, is gonna take that away from you. Trust me."
Just like that, every worry was gone from Jasmine's mind. That sudden ounce of depression went away like that. It was actually very relaxing to have Garrett snap her out of her unhappiness. If he didn't come through then she would have ended up in her bed while engorging in a full tub of Chocolate Fudge Brownie ice cream.
"You know what, Garrett?" Jasmine replied. "You're right. It's not over for me. I know deep down that I'm way more woman than Jenna is ever gonna be. I know that Logan's gonna find out who the real girl in his life should be, and it definitely ain't her! I don't care if it takes me a long time, I'll show Logan who's the real boss in this relationship."
"That's my girl!" Garrett exclaimed, enjoying the sight of a refreshed Jasmine. "I know you won't give up on him!"
"That's right!" She nodded.
Suddenly the silence set in again. Garrett on the other hand was still concerned about his cardigan being messed up due to Jasmine sneezing on it in the first place. Still, it was nice for Garrett to see Jasmine happy and energetic once again.
"So um, you doing anything tonight?" Garrett chuckled.
"Not really," Jasmine shrugged. "What's on your mind?"
"I saw that awesome video game down at the arcade not too long ago," Garrett smirked again. "It's actually zombie cheerleaders and you have to hack and slash in order to survive in a locked-down high school. You in?"
"You know what?" Jasmine replied. "I'd like that."
"Sweet," He smirked. "Now only if I can change in a different shirt though."
From there, both Jasmine and Garrett engaged in a laugh together. Just because Jasmine had lost Logan for now, that didn't mean that she wasn't giving up on him anytime soon. She knew somewhere down the line that she and Logan will end up together. This time, it'll be for real and not make-believe. Hard to believe she had to thank Garrett for getting her out of this brief slumber. He was a good friend, and he would always be there to the end for her. So will Lindy. So will Delia. And so will Logan.
And that's all that matters.
Wow, hard to believe it took me a while to finish, but nevertheless, I got it done.
I will admit that Logan/Jasmine is cute, but I do admit that Jasmine/Garrett falls under that cute category as well. And so does Lindy/Garrett. Delia/Garrett on the other hand, I feel uncomfortable about it. Sorry, Gelia fans. Anyway, feedbacks are welcome! Now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna borrow a thousand dollars from Garrett. C-YA!
