Jonathan reached for the hand holding the damp towel and slowly brought it to his face.

She sighed as he did, pulling her hand away. "It's cold already." She said explaining why she abruptly pulled her arm away. She dipped the cloth into the basin again and brought it too his face and began to wipe it.

​​

Jonathan eyes were fixed on her face the entire she worked, forcing himself to concentrate on the woman rather than her body. He shouldn't disrespect her like that, he wouldn't.

Like soft caresses she pulled the cloth across his face with gentle strokes, making this extremely unbearable for Jonathan. But he managed to keep himself from pulling her down and planting a kiss on those small plush lips. Or so he thought, unintentionally she dragged the cloth across his lips and like reflex he gripped her arms pulling her closer to him. So they was no gap between both their bodies anymore. When she felt he stiffened aganist her when her chest softly brushed aganist his Jessie had to place her hand on his shoulders to steady herself and place some distance between them as she looked into his eyes with confusion.

That's when her suspicion was confirmed. He did like her, she always suspected it, or perhaps she knew but rather choose to ignore it. But with the way he held her flush aganist him, she knew if she didn't do anything he might make a move. And while she didn't have anything aganist the guy, and on normal circumstances she would allow a kiss. To at least show her gratitude, times had changed.

He wasn't any regular guy, she actually cared for him and leading him on like that would be cruel. Plus she didn't want anyone apart from Jason kissing her. The thought shocking her also.

But before she could pull away herself, Tony cleared his throat from behind and they split up immediately. Both of them clearing their throats awkwardly as they avoided eye contact. At least she did, walking back to Tony she grabbed the box and him and pulled them to the couch. Sitting obediently she presented her head to him.

"You not staying here this night." Jonathan said finally breaking the silence.

She looked to him with eyes that read 'I'm really okay' but she said nothing.

He looked to Tony ignoring her expression. "You agree right?"

"But where would I go?" She asked.

"My place, it's not far from here and it's probably safer" he said.

She bit her lip and nodded. "How did you get rid of the fans outside?" Tony asked.

"I told them Jessie Marin no longer lives here and that I bought the house. If they didn't want me to press charges for destruction of property they'd leave." He shrugged. "Oh I also told them to spread the news. But it would be safer to not be here when the sun rises. It's already the weekend, it would be better to get out of here now." He explained.

"All done." Tony said as he place the bandage on Jessie forehead. "Go get your things, we have to get moving before anyone finds out you're here."

Jessie sighed looking down at her feet she felt dejected. Tony noticed her disappointment and hurt. Anyone would feel the same way, she didn't even have the leisure to spend one night, even one night in her own home.

"I'm sorry Jessie, there'll be another time to spend time here, in your home." He said.

She shook her head. "Jason was right, this isn't my home." She blinked back tears. "I don't have one." She said walking out of the room.

"Is this the place?" Katherine asked when the car came to a stop.

"Yeah, street 12 house 17. There is it is." Devon pointed to the side. "Why do you look so disbelieving?"

"It's just you said this place was scary and unsafe." She replied.

"Yes, they do not have a fence and their windows have no bars. Not to mention, why would they let little kids just play outside and on the road?" He stated matter of factly.

Katherine brows furrowed and she placed her hands over her mouth to laugh. Devon pouted when she did. "Did I say something funny?"

She shook her head but kept laughing. "You're so cute." She pulled his cheek.

"Cute? I'd like to think my features are more of attractive and sexy." He leaned closer to her making Katherine lean further into her seat. His gaze bore into hers, and began to peel away her resistance.

He actually was right, with dimples and a lean face his smiles and mannerisms instead of looking cute as dimples normally should make a person look. Looked hella hot on him.

"How did the atmosphere in this car change so suddenly?" She asked.

"It did? I don't think that possible, atmospheres don't chan-" she placed a finger on his lips to stop him from talking. If he was peeling away her resistance then she wouldn't try fight it. She walked away from Paul for a shot at happiness she wouldn't hesitate when it was this close.

"Don't ruin it." She whispered before he began one of his academic lectures. Moving her finger away she cupped his face and placed her lips against his. Ever so softly, Devon's eyes widened in surprise and when he didn't respond she pulled away. Smacking her lips together she looked down in embarrassment tucking her fallen strands of ebony hair behind her ears.

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have don- mmn" he pulled her back and returned the kiss with a lot more passion. Cupping her nape he pulled her closer, his hands moving down her shoulder past her arm and finding it's place at the crook of her slim waist. Katherine gave herself to his kiss and the his feather light touches. Slowly becoming heady and her body feeling light with foreign sensations. Her fingers gripping his jacket at he deepened the kiss, slipping his tongue into her mouth she moaned.

Unable to get rid of the space between their bodies and feeling the immense need to feel her flush aganist him he was about to lift her. But her knock on the glass ended any progress that was to be made.

Both people with swollen lips, hooded eyes and cheeked tinted red of slight embarrassment turned to the woman staring into the car. Devon slowly wined the glass down and they looked at the woman in confusion.

"Are you Katherine Park?"

"Uh.. yes."

"Well come in already." She said walking back into the house. Both of them looked at each other then at her before they eventually out of the car and followed the woman.
