A Night Under The Stars

Chapter 11: Alek, God of Mischief

"I sort of, set them up on a date." he stammered. "What?" My eyes widened. "I know she likes him." he defended himself. "Who is he?" I asked. "The guy from the apartment." he confessed. "Why would you do that? He's human. And if she likes him, Alek! She'll be heart broken!" I cried. "Ah, but see there's this thing. He's-" My eyes widened. Before he could say another word, I knew exactly what was going on in that devious little mind of his. "How do you know?" I wondered. "Well, the other day I was in the elevator and he hopped on and we got to talking." he said. "Does she know?" I pressed on. "No. It's a surprise." he snickered. "Oh, she's going to kill you." I chuckled.

"You what?" Jasmine yelled. Alek stumbled back a bit. He knew she would be mad, but he never would have imagined this mad. "How could you do this to me!" she cried. "Jas-" he tried to get out. "This is a nightmare! He's going to come over here and..." her eyes widened. "Jasmine-" "I have to cancel. I can't go." she reached over the counter for the phone when Alek cut her off. "JASMINE!" he yelled. "What?" she was furious. "Will you let me talk!" he let out. She crossed her arms. "Fine." she huffed rolling her eyes.

"I never meant for this to be a bad thing. I was trying to say thank you. For helping me with Chloe." he staggered. "By setting me up with a guy I could never be with?" she barked. "Jasmine" he sighed. "Alek! He's a human! What am I supposed to do? High-five him? It's not like I can kiss him!" she growled. "It will never work!"

"Well maybe if you let me explain!" he roared. She started pacing back and forth throughout the room. "Humour me." she let out. "It was meant to be a surprise. I never thought you would take it badly. I was just trying to help." he started. She raised an eyebrow at him. "A few days ago, I was on the elevator and he hopped on. We got to talking and he basically told me everything."

"What?" she questioned. He hesitated a moment. "Jasmine, he's Mai." Jasmine stopped pacing and turned to face him. Eyes widened. "W-What?" she slowly fell to the couch. Not believing what she was hearing. ".Mai" he repeated. He walked over to her and sat down. "But, but he never, said anything?" she said. "He was new to the city, and he had just found out. He didn't know who he could trust." he informed. She placed her head in her hands. Taking in deep breaths.

"He told me that when he met you..." he smiled. "...he couldn't stop smiling. You made a huge dent in his heart." he said. She slowly looked up at him. "He really likes you Jasmine. And he was afraid to ask you out. Especially being Mai and all. He knew the consequences." She bit her lip. "Really?" she asked. "Really." "Does he know about us?" she pressed on. "Yes. Since neither of you knew the other was Mai, it was hard to have a friendship, let alone a relationship. Right?" he asked. "Yeah, it was hard for us to be around each other. I told him it wouldn't work. He didn't seem to understand but, I think he knew too. I never knew how to explain why without telling him the truth."

"I- I had to let him go." she confessed.

A grin lit up his face. "Well now you don't have to." he assured. She bit her lip. "Jasmine?" he worried. "I'm sorry for yelling at you." she apologized. He chuckled. "You didn't know. Still want to kill me?" he asked. "No." she chuckled. "Good." he smirked.

"Thank you." she said. He smiled. "Well, I couldn't let this once-in-a-lifetime-opportunity for you to go on a date get passed up." he teased. She punched his arm. He snickered. She gave him a hug then stood up. "What do I wear?" she whispered to herself. "I think I know someone who can help with that." he stated. She turned her head to look at him. "Who?"

"Me!" I giggled walking into the apartment. Jasmine smiled and headed for her room. I winked at Alek following after Jasmine. He leaned back on the couch, propping his feet up on the coffee table and resting his arms behind his head.

I raided Jasmine's closet leaving no stone unturned for an outfit. My eyes landed on a cute zebra print dress with a black buckle along the waist. I snatched a pair of black heels and walked over to Jasmine. "Are you sure?" she wondered. "Yep! Trust me." I handed her the outfit and she went to go change. I smiled. She came out. "How does it look?" she asked. "You look stunning!" I admired. She smiled. "I'm really nervous." she chuckled. "That's good right? To have butterflies?" I nodded. "Don't worry. You're going to have a blast!" I assured. She twirled around, admiring her reflection. "How are you going to wear your hair?" I asked. She shrugged. "I have an idea!" I squealed.

I came out of Jasmine's room. Alek was still in the same position we left him. Only this time his eyes were closed. I tip-toed over, trying not to disturb him. I stood over him, smiling at his charming good looks. "Are you just going to stand their and watch me?" he teased. "Maybe." I joked. He grabbed me by the waist and threw me on to his lap. Wrapping his arms around me. I giggled. He kissed my cheek. Jasmine floated out of her bedroom. All glossed up with her hair curled and ready for her date. She smiled. "I'm sorry miss. We were just waiting for our friend Jasmine. You kind of remind me of her." Alek teased. She rolled her eyes.

Door Bell Rings

Jasmine's eyes widened. "Oh mai god! I can't do this!" she exclaimed. "What? Jasmine, you look gorgeous and he already likes you." I assured. She took a deep breath. "If you want, we can make it a double date?" I offered. "Yeah! And we can all talk and get to know each other! I can put the fear of ME in him!" Alek taunted. Jasmine's eyes widened even more. "That's okay." she chuckled. "Best we not scare him off already." she joked. "Not that we could. He's crazy about you!" I added.

"Here we go." she walked up to the door, slowly opening it. A smile formed on her face as she saw him. "Hi." she whispered. "Hi." He smiled at her. "You look, amazing!" he said. "Thank you." He held out his arm for her, she gladly took it. "Jasmine!" Alek called. She turned to look at him. "Be home by 11." he ordered. I punched his arm. "12." I assured. She chuckled and shut the door behind her.

"Just you and me." he said. "Yep." I giggled.

"So where are we going?" Jasmine asked. "Well, I was thinking along the lines of dinner and a movie. Is that okay?" he asked. She smiled. "Perfect." He opened the car door for her as she hopped in. He got in on his side and shut the door. "Ready?" he asked. She nodded.

I smiled. "What?" he asked. "It's nothing. I've just never seen Jasmine that happy before." I confessed. He chuckled. "That's because she's not. Ever. She's constantly miss grumpy pants." he joked. I chuckled. "So what are we doing tonight?" I asked. "Sleep." he teased. "You're mocking me aren't you." He smirked. "Just a bit."

"Hey. Can I ask you a favour?" I asked. He shot me a curious look. "Sure." he let out. "Can you..." I bit my lip. "Teach me how to dance?" I asked. "What?" he snickered. "Alek, I'm serious!" He laughed. "What, you mean like slow dance?" he asked. "Yeah." I said. "You want me, to teach you, how to dance?" he questioned. "I don't see what is so funny about it." I said. He tried to hold back a laugh. "Chloe King, doesn't know how to dance. And of all people, you want me to teach you." he pondered. "So?" "So" he chuckled. "Why?"

"I don't know how." I sighed. "And I don't want to look like an idiot on friday." I confessed. "You seemed to be doing just fine on your own earlier." he teased. "You expect me to dance like that at a ball?" I questioned. "Yes." he joked. I got up and walked away from him. "Fine. Forget it. I didn't want to have to do this but you leave me no choice." He furrowed his brows. "What?" I grinned. "I'll ask Kai. He'll teach me." I giggled.

He shrugged a shoulder. "Okay. But I must warn you. Have you actually ever seen a Jackal dance before?" he asked. I sighed. "No." He smirked. "And you expect Kai, to teach you?" he pressed on. "Well you're obviously not going to help me." I said. "Obviously." he taunted.

A devious grin crept on my face. "What the hell you doing?" he asked. "I have a proposition." He tried to hide a smile. "I'm listening." "If I can go 5 minutes without looking at you, you teach me to dance." He chuckled. "And if you can't?" he pressed on. "I'll go with the moves I got." I smirked. "Okay." he agreed. "But you can't close your eyes." he added. "Fine." I agreed. "Go."

"Hey chloe." he started. I turned away from him. Looking at a wall. "Chloe. Do you find me, irresistible?" he taunted. I bit down a smile. This was going to be hard. I really wanted him to teach me to dance. I had to use all mai strength and will power to not think about him. Or look at him. "Chloe. Chloooooeeee." he called. "Yes?" "You're beautiful." he said. I smiled to myself. Still trying to not to look at him. "Thank you." I said.

3 Minutes down.

"" he whispered in my ear. I giggled. His breath tickled on my ear. "What?" "I know you want to look at me." he taunted.

Jasmine and her love had small chit-chat about themselves. He paid for their dinner and escorted her back to his car. He opened the door for her as she slid in. "Thank you!" she said. He shut her door and got in on his side. "Any particular movie you would like to see?" he asked. She smiled. "Surprise me."

1 Minute to go.

"I'm winning." I teased. "Not for long." he assured. I wondered what he was planning. He always was one for mischief. He started nibbling on my ear. "Alek." I pleaded. He kissed my cheek and made his way to my neck. "Cheater." I said, still not looking at him. He stopped. Taking his hand and turning my face to look at him. I quickly looked the other way.

30 Seconds.

He pulled me closer to him and kissed me. My eyes slowly fluttered open. "Times up." he said. I tried to hide a smile. "I win." "What?" he questioned. "Yep. All's far in love and war." I declared. "Cheater." he chuckled. I raised my eyebrows and crossed my eyes. "Fine." he gave in.

The movie was already an hour in and Jasmine and her love were not even close to paying any attention to what was on screen. They were too busy kissing.

"Congratulations. You now get to teach me to dance." I giggled. This 'ought to be fun. He signed. "Alright." He stood up and walked over to the speakers. Turning on some jams.

We were just kids, We were the rulers, We had the world, but no we never had enough, Your head on my chest, I watched you sleeping,

Stayed awake and wondered what you're dreaming of.

He walked back over to me. "Okay, place your arms on my shoulders." he said. I swooped my arms around his neck.

Tell me how long it takes, To fill an empty heart, To let it wash away and take it back, take it back. Back to the way we burned, Like we were falling stars. Tell me how long it takes to, Take it back; take it back, back to the start.

He placed his arms around my waist. I laid my head on his chest.

I miss your touch, I miss the late nights. I wish you never would have gotten on that plane. Did you get scared Or did I love you too much?

He held me in his arms, as we swayed back and forth.

Where did you go? I gave you my heart. I'm by myself and we're you go, Whatever you chase, No one could ever take your place. I won't let you go, Don't be the one that got away.

"You know, for someone who doesn't know how to dance, you're doing beautifully." he whispered. "Hmm. Maybe I just have a good teacher." I smiled. The song ended. Alek still held me in his arms. The song switched and we never let go.

Hanging on a tight rope, swinging ten stories high. Doing my best to not look down. Feeling like a ghost in the middle of a crowded room. I'm alone, a stranger in my own town.

He looked down at me and smiled. I blushed.

Don't let me go, don't let me go. Is anybody gonna lift me up?

When you gonna come lift me up? I'm out of my head, flat on my face.

Is anybody here listening? When you gonna come let me in? Don't let me go.

He pulled me closer. Kissing my cheek.

Oh just a memory, I'm chasing. Better days, but I'm far behind. Am I still alive?

He chuckled. "What?" I asked. "I'm starting to think you knew how to dance this entire time." he confessed.

Cause the hardest part is holding on, When everything has come undone.

Yeah everybody needs someone. So when you gonna come lift me up?

When you gonna come lift me up? Are you gonna come lift me up?

When you gonna come lift me up? Don't let me go.

"Maybe. Or, maybe I just wanted to be in your arms." I smiled. He kissed me.

"I had a really great time tonight." Jasmine smiled. "Me too." "We should do this again some time." she added. "Can't wait." he said. He started to turn to walk away when he stopped. "Hey Jasmine, I'm really sorry about everything. I never wanted to hurt you or anything. I had just found out and I didn't know much about the Mai then. I never knew you were one too. I didn't want to lead you on if it could never work." he confessed. She smiled. "I know." she kissed him.

She opened the door. "You want to come in?" she offered. "I'd love to, but I can't. I have an early morning tomorrow." he said. She smiled. "Okay." He kissed her and waved goodbye. She walked in and saw Alek and me dancing.

"Hey guys." she smiled. Walking to her room. Alek kissed my forehead and let me go. I ran after Jasmine. I knocked on the door and walked in. "Hey." I said. "Hi." "How was tonight?" I asked. "Amazing. He's perfect!" she giggled. "You really like him don't you?" I asked. She smiled. "I do."

"You really like Alek don't you?" she asked. A smile filled my face. All the memories of Alek and me filled my mind. "Very much."
