Toni Mahfud as Jace

Shaira POV

The next morning, I quickly took a shower and wore my previous clothes. I got out of the bathroom to see the room empty. Taking my phone and bag, I rushed down the stairs. I entered the kitchen to see Aaron making chocolate pancakes. My stomach instantly growled at the sight. He seemed to not notice me as he was busy cooking. I slowly crept towards him and got on my tippy- toes and slowly whispered.

"I love Chocolate pancakes." He stiffened but relaxed and turned around as I moved beside him and sat on the counter.

"Good cause I love them too." He grinned as he placed the last pancake on the plate and poured some Hershey's with strawberries on top. It looked so good.

"You won't eat." I asked seeing as he served only in one plate.

"Of course I will. I can't stop myself if they are in front of me." He took a knife and fork and cut the pancake in pieces. He raised the fork and fed me and then he ate the pancakes.

"I am such a good cook." He complimented himself. I have to admit the pancakes were amazing and the strawberries balanced the sweetness just perfect.

"That you are." I replied and ate as he continued to fed me and himself.

"You know I can eat on my own." I exclaimed and he shook his head, grinning.

"I like to take care of you." My heart warmed at the thought that he cared for me.

"I like it too." I opened my mouth and took the last bite as did he. He was about to wash the plate but I was quick to take it from his hand and washed it before placing it on the rack that he had for washed dishes.

"Let's go before we are late for school." He said and grabbed his bag from the dining table and walked out of the house. I followed him out and he closed the door.

"You go now, I will come later." I replied feeling the need to confront Jace. I can't hide from him. One day or the other I have to face him. Why not now?

"Ok I will see you later." He went towards his car but stopped mid -way and came back. I looked at him and raised a eyebrow as he jogged up to me.

"What?" I asked and he placed a kiss on my cheek lightly before pulling away. A tinge of pink coloured his cheek and he turned back to his car, smiling from ear to ear. I grinned and shook my head at his antics and the feeling I got at the pit of my stomach. I walked up to the porch of my house and took a deep breath before unlocking the door with the key and entered the house.

I went to the hall where the sound of the TV was coming from and saw Jace sprawled on the couch simply staring of at space. My presence seemed to catch his attention as he sat up and smiled at me.

"You look much better without those ugly pimples." He grimaced and i couldn't stop myself from smiling mentally. Earlier, I used to have a few pimples here and there and he would always come and poke them. Teasing me, that I looked horrible with them. But later on I got rid of them. Puberty to the rescue.

He smile faded when he saw that I didn't respond and walked up to me.

"I am sorry I didn't mean to leave you like that ." He lowly said and i replied.

"I hate you for leaving me but I will let you explain." He sighed in relief and nodded his head before starting.

"After I left from here , I moved in with one of my friends who lived in England. The first three months I spent working and taking classes but remember I would call or message you but then I suddenly stopped." I nodded my head remembering the times I called him.

"I was on my way to the airport, I had booked a ticket to go back and was about to get out of house when suddenly a fire started and the whole apartment burned down. Luckily I and my Friend was able to get out quickly and called the fire brigade. They came and stopped the fire. Everything was turned to ashes. I missed my flight and couldn't come because we had to repair the apartment and we didn't have enough money. The next few months I worked at different places and earned a sufficient amount of money to be able to repair the apartment with my friend's help. I lost my phone in the fire and was not able to contact you.By that time my classes started again and it was getting a lot more hectic. Before I knew it one year passed but I remembered Elizabeth's number so I called her and kept checking up on you. I never had the courage to call you and ask for your forgiveness for not being there. I couldn't even take care of you. I missed you a lot. It hurt so much but at the end I decided to visit you and at least give you a explanation even though you will not forgive me, but you deserve to know. I am sorry, Chocolate. I am so sorry for hurting you. Please, forgive me even though I am not worthy of your forgiveness." His voice became Low at the end. Silent tears were running down my face and I wanted nothing than to just hug the life out of him and that's what i did.

I jumped at him and wrapped my legs around his waist. He stumbled back a bit from the impact but instantly wrapped his arms around me and we stayed like that crying in each other's arms. Rejoicing every memories we had with each other. My crying stopped and I stood in front of him.

"I hate you." I sniffed and he closed his eyes.

"But I love you more than I hate you, Jelly." His eyes lit up when I called him by his nickname and kissed me on my forehead. Suddenly a question appeared in my mind.

"But how did the fire start?" He sighed and replied.

"Marco Adams." And just as that name slipped from his mouth, the ground beneath me slipped and I was shocked would be an understatement.

"What?!"

"Yes you heard right."

After our little crying session, I was back in school, standing by my locker waiting for the girls to come and just then a familiar voice yelled.

"Where the fuck were you?!" An angry looking Alicia strode to me with the girls behind her.

Fuck! An angry Alicia is never good.

"I have been searching for you since the first period and here you are standing casually as nothing happened." She gritted her teeth and the others gave me sympathetic smile.

Yeah as if it was going to help me.

She tapped her foot and crossed her arms giving me a don't- you-dare-to-lie look.

"Jelly is here." I sighed and her expression changed from angry to shocked.

"WHAT?!" She screeched and the students looked at us like crazy.

"What the fuck are you looking at?" I glared at them and everyone scurried back to their own works.

"Yup he is back." I sighed and the girls gave me a confused look except Alicia . I sighed and started explaining them about Jace. They knew about my parents but not Jace as he left a year ago and I didn't meet them then. I have been sighing a lot today.

Jelly and Chocolate were our pet names for each other. We decided that we would call each other by one of the things that we hate to eat. Mine was jelly and still is, I can't tolerate it. His is chocolate. Yes chocolate. I mean how can someone not like CHOCOLATE?! We are just kids back then who used to hate each other's opinions and were constantly bickering about one stuff or the other.

After finishing my story they all hugged me. But the atmosphere became a less tense when Sam asked the question that well...suited her

"Is he hot?" I looked at her weirdly and burst out laughing. She rolled her eyes and glared at me.

"He is 110% hot. So eatable." Alicia dreamily sighed and licked her lips.

"That's my fucking Brother you are talking about." I gagged.

"Don't listen to this bitch. He is so hot with his dark hair, strong jaw, a stubble and six pack abs. Fuck I am getting wet." Alicia cursed loudly and I punched her arm and turned to the girls to see them all having dreamy looks on their faces and sighing.

"Fucking snap out of it guys." I yelled and they jumped up but didn't stop their dirty thoughts and continued to talk.

"How big is he, you motherfucker?"Laura asked and I gaped at her.

"He is so big."

"How the fuck do you know that?!" I squealed and Alicia glared at me.

"I have seen him in his boxers and from that I can tell he is huge."

How the fuck is she my Best Friend?

The students were looking at us like crazy and it would have been really funny to watch if the topic was not about how big my Brother is.

"Fuck I think he is sexy." Sam groaned and face palmed herself.

"You are so fucking lucky." Riley stated and before I could reply a voice cut me off.

"Who is lucky?" Chris asked and kissed Alicia's cheek while wrapping his arm around her waist as did the other guys except Aaron.

"Nothing babe just saying how lucky we are to have you guys." Alicia swiftly lied and pecked him on his lips.

I gaped at her.

"As much as I know I remember you saying that Jace is so hot and that he has a big dick." I smirked and she glared at me for exposing her truth.

"WHO THE FUCK IS JACE?!" The boys screeched except Jake and Aaron as they already knew who he was but Jake still was looking pissed. The boys looked at their own girls with questioning and angry eyes while the girls glared at me.

"FUCK YOU BITCH!"
