James walked with Jasmine out to the parking lot. He head hung low.
"What's wrong James?" she asked, concerned.
"Nothing." James mumbled.
" okay, you don't have to tell me if you don't want to."
After a few seconds James opened his mouth. "She doesn't love me."
Jasmine stopped, "Who?"
"Angie, she doesn't love me."
Jasmine didn't know what to say, "Well...you guys are six years apart."
"Love has no limits." James said.
"That's true, but what I'm saying is that maybe you and Angie weren't meant to be." She got her car keys out of her pocket.
James sighed, "Yeah..." He didn't want to admit this, but it was true,"Maybe you're right. Maybe I should like girls my age."
"That would be helpful." Jasmine said, "Bye James." She started walking towards her car.
"Jasmine wait!" James said.
Jasmine turned around, "What?" James ran up to her, and hugged her. Jasmine really enjoyed the hug. She didn't want it to end.
"What was that for?" Jasmine asked when James pulled away.
"You're my friend now, all my friends get hugs." James said smiling.
"So you give the guys hugs too?"
"Well with them, its different. We give each other man-hugs or bro-hugs if you would. My girl-friends get different hugs."
"See you tomorrow, James."
"Bye."
THE NEXT DAY
Jasmine was again sitting on the bleachers after school, watching the guy's football practice even though she said it was boring. She brought her ipod with her so she'd be entertained.
It took forever for the practice to be over, but when it was Jasmine hopped down the bleachers, and waited for the guys to come out.
And today, Kendall was the first one out the locker room. Which was unusual because usually he's always the last one. When he saw Jasmine he grinned from ear to ear. He held something behind his back.
"Hey Jasmine." He said, smoothly. He tried to remian cool.
"Hey Kendall."
"I got something for you." He said, and took a flower from behind his back. It was a rose.
"Aw, thanks Kendall, but you didn't have to."
Kendall stopped her, "I wanted to." Jasmine smiled and sniffed the rose. Her nose crinkled.
"I'm not trying to be rude or anything, but why does the rose smell like sweat?"
"Oh! It was in my dufflebag along with my other gear. Sorry if it smells bad, I can get you another one if you want."
"Kendall it's okay, I'll just spray something on it when I get home."
'Oh, okay." Then the rest of the guys came out.
"What up Jasmine?" Carlos said.
"Hey Carlos, hey Logan."
"Hey." Logan said.
"Hey Jasmine, where'd you get the flower?" James asked.
"Kendall gave it to me." She said. Carlos and Logan gave out a small whistle. James' stomach made a small knot. He was a little bothered by this. He looked at Kendall.
"It was a welcome gift." Kendall said.
"Okay..."
James seems a little jealous xD REVIEW! :)
