"Jason, do you get it now??"

He just looks at me completely bewildered, an embarrassed blush blooming on his cheeks. I almost feel bad for him. That is until he grabs back at my hands.

"That's what you think.  I know.  We're end game. No matter what you say, you'll be mine."

I yank my hands out of his and look at him with disgust.  He really is not getting it.  Sebastian pulls me back to his side, holding me close to him, very protective.  "Dude, you're working on my last nerve.  I'm trying to be civil and not end you because I promised my Pretty Girl there would be no violence. You're just making it incredibly difficult."  He runs his hand soothingly through my hair.

Maybe if I try.... "Jason, you need to just let it go. It's been a year. Honestly a year! I'm not going to be yours ever again. You need to just move on."

He's grasping at straws now.  Looking around for any support he can get, but these are all my friends. Not his.  And they are all looking at him like he's lost his mind.  I continue, "Please you need to move on with your life.  Go find another girl, any other girl.  Try and be happy.  But don't you DARE ruin my happiness."

He sighs and looks at me again, I can see the torture in his blue eyes.  "But..."

Next thing I hear is Kurt.  Giving an exasperated sigh. He steps forward and gets directly into Jason's face poking his finger into his chest.  "Listen Jerkface, you've obviously been inhaling far too much chlorine. It's seriously warped your brain. Now I may not always like Sebastian but I'd rather see him with Shannon instead of you. And I don't even KNOW you. You just seem seriously unhinged. Get a grip man!!"

I am desperately trying not to giggle, burying my face in Sebastian's chest. It is just unreal to see Kurt stand up for mine and Sebastian's relationship. Kurt, who half the time thinks Sebastian is the devil incarnate trying to corrupt me, is defending us against my crazy ex-boyfriend.

Sebastian cuddles me to his chest and tries to stay as calm as he can as he addresses Jason one last time, one last try to convey his point. "Listen Matthews, I don't particularly like Kurt, but he has a distinct point. You need to just leave. I'm thoroughly prepared to fight you on this. She's my Love, my future wife. You need to walk away while you still look decent enough to attract another girl. Or my friends and I, we WILL end you."

Sebastian gives Thad, Nick, Jeff and Blaine all looks and they surround Jason, isolating him from the rest of us. Blaine leads the small group away, staying directly in front of Jason the entire time. He stayed silent this whole time and I know he has got to be stewing inside. Blaine has been my rock, my support system in all of this. So I know he has to be harboring a lot of hatred towards J.

The crowd that was gathered around us has now dispersed as well.  Sebastian pulls me away from his side and stands directly in front of me, taking my hand in his and lifting my chin so I can look up at him.  His eyes look softer now, without any trace of the anger and aggression he was concealing just a few moments earlier.  He tenderly strokes my cheek as he begins to speak, "Pretty Girl, are you okay? I didn't like seeing him upset you. I know you would never leave me, especially for someone like him. But the fact that he just keeps trying....it worries me."

I nod and he drops his voice so it's harder for the others to hear him. "Love, maybe we SHOULD just run away. You and I. Start our life together now and come back after...." Gently he raises my left hand to his lips, kissing my ring finger. Making sure I fully understand the meaning behind his words.

I glance around quickly and the girls have gone back to watching the game, gossiping with Kurt about what just happened. No one is paying attention to us anymore. So I lead Sebastian away from the end zone, instead walking with him back towards the fence we were at before. It's quieter over here, less people, less prying eyes and ears. I peer into his clear sea green eyes while I try to think clearly.  They are swimming with so much emotion: love, fear, worry, admiration, stress, excitement and hope.  They are entrancing and hypnotizing.

But they also help me contemplate my answer.  Until Sebastian no one has ever looked at me like this, like I am the most important person on the planet. I mean, I'm not sure my parents even love me this much. They ditched me for Europe and their careers after all. But he is willing to leave it all behind, everything and everyone just to be with me, whatever the consequences. "That much of a difficult decision, Princess? I'm hurt..."

My eyes focus back on Sebastian's face, he's pouting slightly but his eyes are sparkling with mischief.  I giggle softly, "Nothing like that Seb.  You turn 18 in January, right?"  He nods and pushes my hair behind my ear, "January 14, why?  What are you thinking Pretty Girl?"

I give him a small smile, "Well since I don't turn 18 until August, we would definitely need to talk to my parents or Aunt Pammy, since I would need some sort of adult approval for me.  But if we can, and you still want to, after the New  Year we can start seriously considering these things.  Planning..."

His smile instantly lights up his entire face, eyes crinkling and sparkling. "Seriously?!?!" I laugh at him and nod. Next thing I know he has wrapped his arms around my waist and lifted me off my feet spinning me in a tiny, tight circle. Keeping my body as close to him as possible. I wrap my arms around his neck to keep myself steady, squealing slightly in surprise.

He starts kissing me the moment he stands still, although my feet are still off the ground.  Gently he lowers me back to my feet. I stay on my tip toes so that I can be closer to his height.  He breaks our kiss, leaning his forehead against mine, just smiling at me.

I drop back down on my feet and move my head to his chest, cuddling up to him as he holds me close.  He runs his hands through my hair again, humming softly while in the distance I hear the marching band beginning to play.  People begin to move past us again. It must be halftime.

But Sebastian and I are in our own little world right now, content with the future we are planning.
