Fated is overrated
Chapter 9

Lola POV

"What? What do you mean??". I contemplate whether or not I should be telling him this, as it will make him and Nadia both too worried to ever leave me alone again. Knowing I am hesitant on relaying what happened, he cups his other hand around my other cheek "tell me Lola, please?". I sigh "well, a few minutes after I had gotten up and gotten a few yards from where I had laid unconscious for three hours, I saw a rogue approaching the same spot I was lying in, thoroughly sniffing the ground.

Probably because of my bloodshed on the ground. And after a minute or so, another rogue joined the first one". Jason looks at me with a horrified and sad expression, staring into my eyes and not saying anything for a while, before I hear him swallow down his saliva and answer "I am so happy you got up when you did, Lola.

I wouldn't know what I would have done if I had lost you like that". Jason is usually a happy go lucky kind of guy, so to see him upset and sad like this tugs at my heart.

I remove one of his hands from my cheeks and sandwich it with both hands. "You didn't, I am still here and I am okay now! It's just one of the many reasons I can't continue living here, Jason.

They left me out to die after almost beating me to death themselves". I know he has some more to say, but he closes his mouth and nods at me still with a sad expression before throwing me into an unexpected tight hug. I can feel he needs this at the moment, so I hug him back as we stand there in complete silence.

After a few minutes it suddenly dawns on me that I am only in a towel and showing a lot of skin right now, not to mention the fact that my towels are never that secured around my body as they are a tad bit too small to wrap all the way around.

With that thought, I suddenly feel a bit uneasy being this close and only 1 towel away from being naked, so I pull out of the hug. "I'll go get dressed now if that's okay.

You have your warrior training to attend to in a bit, right?" "yes I do, but I am skipping today. No arguing with me, I am skipping it and staying with you. Watching all the lame a*s horror you call movies of your choosing, until you get tired of me and ask me to go home".

"Soooo... you're going home right now?" I say with a teasing smile. "You can be a real d*ck you know that, right? Now go get changed, I will wait for you out here". "Let's watch downstairs though. We have a bigger TV there. I'll see you downstairs in a bit!" I say, trying to hide the fact that I would rather not watch a movie in my bed together.

As Jason heads out I grab some underwear to put on along with some sweatpants and a baggy sweater. Many sentences in this chapter have been removed because you are not reading them on Jo-b_nib.c-om. I decide to leave my bra off as my chest is very sore from the impact still, and they are fully covered in my sweater anyway. I put everything on and rush downstairs to see Jason has already laid out all the horror movies he could replace, ready for my picking.

"Wow, I should have near death experiences more often if it will make you this willing to watch horror" I chuckle, which earns me a stern glare from him." You better not!".

I give him a genuine smile before picking out a movie and putting it on. I could use a nice relaxing night with my best friend after the day I have had!

Jason POV

My anxiety at the whole situation is through the roof. Not only about the beating and subsequently almost being killed by rogues, but about being in her bedroom with her in nothing beside a towel.

I have never been more jealous of an object in my entire life and I would have wanted nothing more than to slip it off her. But tonight is not the night with everything she went through - I need to get my mind out of the gutter because she really needs my friendship right now.

It's just so f*cking hard to concentrate on anything when just a few moments ago those soft luscious boobs were pressing against my chest with nothing but a small towel in between." Focus Jason, she needs a friend" I relay to myself in my own mind

Just as I was a tad bit calmer and managed to get my c*ck to subside a bit, she came down very clearly without having a bra on. I'm telling you this girl can make any man go crazy and the worst part is that she doesn't even realize what she is doing, she is so completely clueless.

She doesn't even realize any man is ogling her and, worst of all, she doesn't even realize what she is doing to me and how badly I want her to lie under me naked right now and have my way with her.
