WHEN REALITY HITS PERFECT

CHAPTER 33

              ***JASON ASTOR ***

I saw the guy leave Kate in the garden and walked towards her who looked lost in thoughts. She didn't even see or hear me as I approached

I loomed over her and looked over her bowed head still not noticing my presence

I cleared my throat and she immediately snapped her head up as she looked at me surprised

She wiped her eyes and cleared her throat as if everything was alright

Wait. Was she crying?

I saw red and vowed to kill that rat for making her cry.

"What-What are you doing here?" She asked as she redid her hair and I hesitated a bit

I couldn't tell her that I stalked her and her boyfriend and listened to every single one of their conversations

"I was just coming for air" I lied and she nodded

"Cool, I was just leaving" she said and was about to leave when I grabbed her arm

She looked up surprised and I let go before clearing my throat

"So, so that's your boyfriend?" I asked and she shook her head with a sad look on her face

"Ex" she spat out as if it was a bitter word on her tongue and couldn't wait to get rid off it

"Oh" I said without emotion but deep down, I was kinda ecstatic to hear that

"So"

"What happened between you two?" I asked and she sighed before looking down at her shoe

"Nothing" she said and I raised my brow up in confusion

"Nothing, so why did you two break up?" I asked and she sighed again before looking at my face

"It's a long story" she said and I took a deep breath before sitting in a chair opposite her

Once I was comfortable I looked deep into her eyes

"I've got time"

            ***KATIE WILLSON ***

"I've got time" he said and I was shocked. This is Jason Astor we're talking about

He never has 'Time' for anyone but himself

He kept on looking at me and I found out that he wast truly serious

I took a deep breath and sat back on the swing as it gently rocked

"Romeo and I were a perfect couple" I started and looked up at Jace to see that he had scrunched up his nose as if there was a bad smell he was breathing in

"What?" I asked and he shook his head

"Nothing" he said and I raised a brow

"It's not like you to show emotions over nothing since you're practically a robot" I said and he rolled his eyes at my comment

"It's just that, come on. Who names his child Romeo in the 21st century?" he asked

I frowned

"Trust you Astor to ruin a good moment" I said and he chuckled

"Anyways, Romeo was a dream" I continued my story after the interruption

"He was sweet, funny and kind. But he wasn't always like this"

"What do you mean?" He asked

"Before I met him he was cold, mean and arrogant. Kinda like you" I said and he raised his brow up
