Adopted

Chapter 8

Jasper's POV

I was too exhausted to talk to anybody since I had a pretty rough week. I left town for a few days because I had to clear my head.

I switched off my phone because at some point I got tired of the phone constantly buzzing. I didn't have the strength to take anyone's phone call or read all their messages.

All I did for those days were staying indoors, sleeping, eating and drinking. I had gotten back yesterday night and decided to go for a party at Cole's house, one of my trusted buddies.

He didn't question where I had been all week and I was grateful for that. During the party I had to get something from my car and then some girl who looked a lot like Jemma made out with me just by my car but before I could ask for her number she ran away in the opposite direction. I won't lie, she was freaking hot.

I guess I have the tendency of remembering some specific things I do when I'm drunk.

If not that I was drunk and it was totally dark, I would have been able to see her face. After that kiss it took a while before I was able to go back to the party. I had totally forgotten what I went to the car to do.

When I came back today and saw her, all the images of last night came back and I was totally convinced that she was the one but Kyler told me that her and Paige went to Madison's house for a sleepover and they both came back with pretty bad hangovers so my theory of her being the stranger was still hard to prove because I had no idea where this Madison lives.

I wanted to ask her when she came back from test driving the car but I couldn't bring myself to ask her because for no reason I was nervous. Even when I held her back after watching the movie I could still feel my heart beating louder than ever.

I just had to apologize to her for being a jerk the other day at least not to keep her wandering and well yeah I was too harsh.

Her reply was a simple 'okay' and I knew that I was safe.

I've noticed that she's the kind of person that doesn't really like to pry into people's lives without an invitation and that night she was just a little curious.

I snapped at her for no reason actually. There is something about her that interests me, especially the way she emphasizes that her name is JJ not Jemma.

The name Jemma is beautiful and it fits her but why she refuses to bear it is still a mystery to me. Everything about her was perfect to me. I loved her long black hair and her green beautiful orbs. Her accent is just the icing on the cake.

"Bro, where have you been? I've been sick worried about you. You didn't pick your phone calls, you didn't reply my messages. What the hell happened?" Kyler said in a low voice breaking me from my thoughts. I really didn't know when he entered my room.

I sighed "I just needed some personal space."

"Personal space and you didn't even show up in school?" He rose his voice, "I went to your house countless times and it was empty. There was no sign of life in it"

"I just needed some personal space!" I yelled getting angry at him questioning me.

"Fine," he scoffed obviously giving up.

He knew me too well. When I didn't want to talk about something I wouldn't.

I decided to change the topic to clear the tension in the air, "I was back in town yesterday and I went to a party, I was freaking drunk and as I was about to take something from my car but some chick came up to me and-" someone's phone started ringing making me to stop talking.
