Two days later which was a Friday, Jasmine was discharged from the hospital in the evening. She was now feeling much well except for the little headaches that comes up at times due to the fact her head was hit hard on the steering wheel. There was a welcome ban in the Williams house written "WELCOME BACK HOME OUR PRINCESS,JASMINE. WE LOVE YOU", while they applauded as Ray and her dad led her in.

Jasmine was so happy seeing that banner on the entrance door of the sitting room. Her gaze went from Sarah to Rosa, Emmanuel and then Joshua. She smiled at them and they returned the smile.
"Thank you guys. I love y'all too." She said blowing them kisses and hugging each of them. Rosa was the last person she hugged.

"Guess what i prepared for you". Rosa said in a whisper.

"Hmm. Rice?". Jasmine replied rhetorically.

"Hmm,well..you're right. I prepared white rice and chicken pepper soup for you. Hope you'd like it?". Rosa asked.

"Sure,as far its coming from you our great cook." Jasmine replied winking at her with a smile.

"I know you've missed your gossip with her, but at least just let her go freshen up so we can all have dinner." Williams said after watching Rosa whisper things to Jasmine.

Rosa rolled her eyes and tutted. Others followed with a grin.

"I guess I should leave now." Ray interrupted rubbing his neck.

"Leave? But why? I was thinking you'll have dinner with us or even spend the night here. Right sweetie?" Williams asked glancing at Jasmine's face.

"Huh?". She managed to ask in a gape. She was too surprise with the sudden question by her dad,all she did was stare.

"Its OK, Sir Williams. I..."

"Please just have dinner with us, handsome. Maybe you can leave after that. Hmm?". Rosa said interrupting Ray.

"Yeah,she's right. Just have dinner with us. See it as a little way of showing appreciation for what you did for my daughter. OK?". Williams pleaded.

Ray sigh. "OK. Dinner it is then." He replied.

Almost everyone was happy and felt relief that Ray was having dinner with them,but the countenance of Emmanuel was weird. He showed no interest in the conversation.
"Please excuse me,I'll be outside." He said.

They was awkward silence when Emmanuel left,they both gave each other an eye contact trying to figure out what that was all about. Since no one could say what was wrong but only gave a shrug,they let it go looking forward to see him at the dinning later.

"Please excuse me. I'll be down shortly let me freshen up." Williams said and left leaving Ray, Jasmine, Rosa, Sarah and Joshua in the parlour.

"I should go freshen up as well." Jasmine said wanting to leave.

"Can I join you?". Ray asked with a smirk.

"What?!". The four of them asked in unison.

"Oh...Sorry...I...Meant...To. Say...if I could help her get to her room." Ray stuttered nervously at seeing their gazes fixed on him.

They sighed in relief believing what Ray just told them. "Uhmm...I'll get to the kitchen to fix up our dinner. Sarah do you mind helping me?". Rosa asked eyeing Sarah.

"Sure." Sarah answered almost immediately and so Rosa led her to the kitchen.

"Please excuse me as well,I have to check out something in my room." Joshua said heading out of the parlour the door.

Jasmine gasp in disbelief on what her so-called family just did to her. How could they leave her in the hands of Ray in this manner? For Christ sake,they're meant to be here entertaining him rather than given him the opportunity to go with her to her bedroom. She growled and faced-palm herself.

Ray chuckled at that.

"And what are you laughing at?". She asked given him a stern look.

Ray shrugged. "Nothing." He said with a grin.

"It better be nothing. You can go sit over there while I go upstairs to my room." She said pointing at the couch in the parlour.

" I can sit there all by myself." He said with a frown.

"But why not? What's wrong with you sitting there?". She asked with her arms folded on her chest.

"Because I'm scared. Vampires might come get me." He replied with a pout hiding his grin.

Jasmine gasp and stared at him with a raised brow. She couldn't contend anymore for hearing that from him. She started chuckling. She laughed so hard that water start coming out of her eyes.

Ray couldn't hide his grin any longer he joined her in the laughter.

"So. You. Of. All. People. Can be. Scared of vampires?". She asked halfway grasping a breath.

"Yeah." Ray answered with a pout.

"Just shut up. You're just being cocky. I know you so well already. You just want to go to my room." Jasmine said glaring at him.

Ray shrugged and gave her a wiggle.

"Whatever." She retorted with an eye rolling while Ray wink at her. She elbowed him on his chest and then ran upstairs.

"Ouch. That hurts you know. Well..I'm glad to have my troublesome, Brandy back again." Ray called out before running after her.

He got to her room and closed the door behind him. He looked around her bedroom that was painted peach and white colors. Her bed was a princess size bed,not too big but it was a comfy to her. A dark-grey bedsheet was covered on the bed halfway showing a white inner bedsheets. Two throw-pillows black and pink was in the middle of two big pillows that were covered with white pillowcases. Also on the bed is a white big teddy bear sitting on the bed. Close to the bedside is a dressing mirror with a cupboard where her makeups and jewelries are. Then on the lefthand side is her wardrobe. A medium flat screen TV was hung on the wall facing her bed. While close to the door entrance was a black sofa with three throw-pillows.

"You have a nice room here, everything is neatly arranged." He said to her while still standing by the door side.

"Thanks. It looks feminine isn't it?". She asked sheepishly.

"No,not at all. I was thinking it will be all pinky like my sister's room and I guess most girls room as well." He said.

Jasmine shrugged and replied. "Well,I didn't want mine to be that way. Although I like pink but didn't wanted my room to be too pinky. I wouldn't deny the fact it was pinky when I was much younger. So when I grew up I changed the paintings and everything."

"Its cool." He admitted.

After that both of them stood there in awkward silence for a moment not knowing what to say.

"I...." Jasmine trailed off as Ray closed the gap between them and kissed her on her lips. Her eyes widen in surprise at the motion but it didn't take long before she let him devour her with his tongue in her mouth.

It took them forever to break the kiss. When he finally did,he ran his hand through his hair avoiding her gaze. "I'm sorry,Brandy. I don't know,you just drive me crazy whenever I'm with you. I..." He was about saying more when Jasmine placed her finger on his lips.

"Shhh." She said and kissed his cheek before she walked to the bathroom to freshen up leaving Ray with his running adrenaline.

Louis was feeling bored being at his apartment all alone,so he decided to go to a club since its a Friday night to have fun.

Getting to the club,it was bobbling. Music was blasting everywhere in the club house,boys and girls were making out on the couch,some at the wallside,while others have drank to a stupor,some were busy dancing to the the beats of 'In my feelings by Drake. As he walked pass the crowd,girls flung over him being the cute guy he's known for asking him for a dance. But he refused to join them and went to the bar counter to order for a drink. He sat at the barstool waiting for his whiskey liquor to be given him.

His glass of whiskey was placed on the counter by the bar guy and so Louis pick it up and took a sip of it.

"Omg! Not again. This lady is coming over here to take another glass of tequila. This should be the fifth glass she's having. She's a lady for goodness sake." The bar guy growled to Louis.

"Well...since her head can carry it,why not. She can take more glasses as she wants." Louis replied taking another sip of his drink.

"To me its unladylike. Look she's here already..." The bar guy trailed off as she placed the cup on the counter.

"Hey...get...pour some...contents into...my...cup. Woooh...this party is hot." She exclaimed giggling as she held the counter and started tweaking. She was putting on a jean bumshort and an orange off shoulder crop-top with a black ankle boot.

Louis was forced to turn and look by his side to see who it was but couldn't get a better view of her face since she was tweaking and her face was faced the other side of the room. Louis was awestruck by the sight. His gaze was fixed on her butt.

The bar guy did as he was told. "Here's your drink ma'am." He yelled to her because the music was too loud.

"Yeah....thanks",she said and stopped tweaking, picked up her glass and walked towards Louis. "Whoo-huh. C'mon...dude,let's do some... Drake and Rihanna...thing". She yelled moving closer to Louis and take his hand dragging him up from his sit. She was still nodding her head to the beats of the music and her hair was bouncing covering her face.

Louis gulped making his Adam apple to bounce. He stood up slowly and eyed the bar guy who was staring at the both of them. The bar guy shook his head and continued with what he was doing.

Now he has followed her halfway to have a dance with her. He stopped her by turning her around to face him. He removed the strand of hair covering her face and stared at her. His jaw dropped and his eyes widened.
"S..y..l..v..i..a?". He said her name in a low tone.

"L..o..u..i..s". She called his name looking surprise and dumbfounded. Immediately she flinched from him and ran out of his sight.

Louis still awestruck managed to knock it off and ran after her but it was too late because she was already missed with the crowd and so he lost sight of her.
He then started calling her name pushing his way through the crowd but the music was way too loud for her to hear him neither could he see her.

After searching the whole clubhouse including bathrooms,bedroom and even the kitchen still he couldn't find her. He placed his both hands on his waist and sigh in exasperation.

A thought hit him. So he came out of the clubhouse and searched outside the building for her if she could still be around. Lucky enough, he found her with two guys who was sexually harassing her at the corner of the parking lot. Quickly he ran towards them.

"Leave her alone!" He snarled.

The two guys turn to see who it was and started grinning. They didn't pay attention to him,they held on to her.

"Didn't you hear me,I said leave her alone!". He yelled.

"And who are you to tell us to leave her alone?". One of the guys asked with a smug.

"Tsk. You really want to know, huh?". Louis asked.

"Just leave us alone. We don't care to know about you." The second guy said and started pulling Sylvia to his chest who was so drunk and didn't know what was happening.

From nowhere a hard punch fell on the Guy's face and he let go of Sylvia making her to stagger back.
The second guy tried attacking Louis but was so unfortunate because Louis already gave him a kick on his stomach and a punch on his jaw making him to fall on the floor.
The first guy that was punched already regained himself and went forward for a fight with Louis, but Louis took him down with another kick on his face and one on his leg which made him fell down.

"Now leave if not you'll be dead if i touch my hands on you guys again.!" He sneered.

The two guys stood up with a stagger,one was bleeding from his nose while the other was bleeding from his mouth.

"We'll....be back for you", the guy holding his stomach that was kicked and was bleeding from his nose said and they started running.

"We'll see." He called out to them before they disappeared from his sight. He rushed to her and held her into his arms. "Are you OK?". He asked touching her chin but they was no response as she shut her eyes closed and rested her head on his chest.
