"My boyfriend"
Jack's eyes widened and suddenly the world seemed to be crashing down on him. He didn't understand why but he never felt so utterly disappointed in his life. NEVER! But then he quickly put himself together hid all his emotions, gave a small smile something he was really good at considering he did it every weekend in front of all of Sarah's friends.
"Oh…interesting." Interesting? What the hell is wrong with you Jack? He thought and mentally kicked himself. Kate tilted her head and eyed him curiously.
"Uh…yeah...I guess" She said, not sure where he was going with this.
"So what does he do? James, is it?" Jack said his name as if swallowing poison.
"He's a model and the same company as I."She said dryly as if not at all interested in the new topic.
"So...He's a model…"Kate looked up at with a weird expression on her face. Why the hell is he just repeating what I'm saying? Jack was writing something on the clipboard with so much force Kate thought he'll tear the paper. What the hell is wrong with him? He was completely fine before I told him about...OH MY GOD!
Kate bit back a giggle when realization dawned upon her. Is he really jealous of James? Kate wanted to jump up with joy when Jack's behavior proved to her that there was a chance that the feelings she was having were mutual. Kate thought it would be best to leave out the part that she and James had started dating only for the promotion of their new Davidoff fragrance, nothing more-at least from her side. They were suppose to end their 'relationship' at the end of the campaign but James, who was a lot more well know in the industry, grew obsessed with her and Kate agreed to carry the relationship not only because it was doing wonders for her career but that fact that she didn't have anyone better to wait for.
She decided to not tell this all to Jack…She was going to have some fun.
"Yeah…A very good-looking one too."Kate added smiling with pride. The smile grew wider as she saw Jack flinch.
"So how is your relationship going?" Jack prayed silently for a negative answer.
"Fantastic!"She practically yelled on the top of her lungs. Happy with the response she was getting, but her happiness was short lived as she heard a chuckle from Jack. When Jack looked up at her, he had a wide grin on his face and eyes that were screaming-got cha!
"That's a lie!"He said with all the confidence in the world and for a moment that intimated Kate.
"What do you mean?" she said equally.
"Because if it was Kate! You wouldn't have attempted suicide yesterday!"He smiled in victory. But the smile was instantly wiped off his face when his cell phone gave a shrill, he quickly grabbed it and went to the exact place Kate did a minute ago.
"What Sarah!" Jack yelled, extremely unhappy about missing Kate's reaction when he burst her bubble.
"You don't have to yell at me in front of your clients you know!"She replied as she pretended to be angry. Jack took a deep breath, Sarah always acted petulant when she wanted something from him or rather…his credit card.
"Sorry, but I'm really busy right now. What's the problem?"
"Uh...I forgot to tell you…We're hosting a dinner party tonight!" Jack rolled his eyes at her excitement.
"Okay sure I'll try to make it home early…" Not! He added mentally.
"I know that but there was someone I was hoping you'd bring along…."She trailed.
"Who?" Jack asked completely oblivious as to what was about to happen as he took a sip of his water.
"Katharine Austen…"She said, all excited again. If only she could she that her husband was about to faint on the other end of the line.
"Have you lost your mind??"He furiously yelled after he spat the water out. "You're kidding me right?"
"What's wrong with asking her to come over for dinner?"
"What's wrong? Okay…(A) She doesn't know you!(B)She doesn't have time for stupid things like this!(C)why the hell would she come anyway!"He whispered angrily knowing that 'she' was not too far.
"She'd come because you saved her fucking life! She'll know I'm the wife of the man who saved her life! Even if she's a model she still eats dinner!" she yelled, now growing impatient.
"But why Sarah? You don't even know her!"
"Hey! I do know her!"
"Looking at a picture of her in the Victoria's secret catalogue does not mean you know her!"
"Fine...I kind off told everyone who's coming tonight that she'd be there."Sarah admitted shamefully. Jack on the other hand didn't know whether to laugh or cry-this was the last straw.
"WHAT??"He screamed loud enough for even the patient even on the 12th floor in the coma to be able to hear it. "Sarah!!"
"I'm sorry! I just thought you'd be able to convince her….do you know how many people are coming tonight because of her!" Jack could not believe she was getting excited all over again!
She is your wife, you can't kill her!
She is your wife, you can't kill her!
She is your wife, you can't kill her!
"Please baby! Just give it a shot…pretty please!"Jack was only disgusted by her overly sweet and overly fake tone.
"Fine, I'll try. But I'm not making any promises."He had to pull the phone away from his ear while he heard her squeal on the other end.
"Okay, thanks baby, bye….oh and Jack, I love you" SHIT. Luckily Sarah didn't wait for a reply and quickly hung up. Jack let out a huge breath and turned around, only to find a highly amused Kate sitting on the couch.
"Hypocrite." she chuckled.
"Excuse me!"
"You were just about to start giving me advice on relationships. I can see why…yours is going splendidly well." she added sarcastically.
"Hey! Mine and Sarah's relationship is none of your concern!" he added, clearly not enjoying losing.
"Neither is mine and James's!"
"Considering I'm your therapist it is!"
"James and I are very happy together!" Jack couldn't help but laugh at this while it only angered Kate more.
"Oh really? Prove it…."Kate looked at him and gave him a how-the-hell-am-I-suppose-to-do-that look. "Come to my house for dinner tonight with him!"
Kate felt like punching him for this. If she and James went to this dinner, Jack would know he was a 100 right and will taunt her through all the left over sessions! Quick Kate! Do something!
"Uh…we can't ….James and I have work to do...Sorry but thank you for the invitation." She tried to keep herself as cool as possible and picked up her bag. "Thank you Dr. Shepherd, I have to go now." she preceded the door only to be stopped by a hand grab her shoulder and pull her back and turn her around. They were now incredibly close to each other and at that moment both of them forgot how to breathe. She could smell the expensive aftershave on him and he could see every individual freckle on her face. A devilish smile crossed his face, making it even harder for Kate to breathe.
"Scared Kate?" Kate swallowed hard. "Scared I'll see right through your so called 'happy' relationship?"
"No! It's not that! Me and James-"
"Have work to do? Are happy?...What were you going to finish that sentence with?"He waited for a reply but was amused at how Kate could do nothing but stare at her feet. Jack gave another chuckle and stopped immediately when Kate's furious eyes met his.
"You know what? We'll be there !"
