My mother cleared her throat and walked over to where Bridgette was standing.
"I don't mean to pry in your relationship with your son but don't feel bad about what he said, that's how children are, they don't mean what they say and he seems like a really nice , well mannered young man."
That was my mother, she never liked to see anyone in pain or unhappy, one of the many reasons why she was the best mom ever.
However I felt like her kindness and generosity was shoved out the door as Bridgette just nodded her head and walked out leaving her standing there.
"Well wasn't that something."I said trying to ease the tension.
My mother turned to me and smiled , her smile broadening as though she just remembered something.
"Have you seen your room as yet?"she beamed excitedly.
"No mom, I've now reached , remember?"
"Well what are we waiting for, come let me show you, I'm sure you'll love it."
I followed my overexcited mom past the hall and kitchen and up the stairs, she was acting in a similar fashion as to how I acted when I first got here which was like only a few minutes ago.
On our way I got a glimpse of a picture of Jace in his early teens hanged up on the wall, he looked handsome as usual, someone else was standing next to him, by the close resemblance I assumed it must be his dad.
I wonder what happened to his dad, why did his parents divorce? Well assuming they were divorced , I mean what if his dad was deceased, I really hoped that wasn't the case.
"So that Jace boy is pretty handsome isn't he?"my mom stated.
What?
Why was my mom asking me that?That question totally shocked me, this was definitely something I would of never expected her to ask.
"I guess he is alright, I don't get why you're asking me though."
"I just wanted to know your opinion, you never know if he have some good looking friend who he can introduce you to."
Okay this definitely was not my mom!She never encouraged me to like anyone, dating was totally out of the question, she was the whole reason I was never in a relationship before.
"Mom are you okay?"I asked pretending to check her temperature.
" Very funny Leah, its just you're turning eighteen soon and I'm proud of what you've accomplished so far, I just want you to know that I'm totally okay with you dating someone now."
Wow, I never expected to hear that coming from my mom, I thought I would grow old and never hear those words.
"Oh."was all I could manage to respond.
"Well we've reached, this is it, your new room."
She very slowly opened the door to reveal the most beautiful bedroom I have ever seen before, everything about it said fabulous and princess!
Yes, princess!Any girl would feel like a princess in this room.
The bed was queen sized with a beautiful pink covering, matching curtains hid the view of a perfect scenery outdoors and I had my very own flat screen t.v and stereo, with bookshelves filled with romance novels, a large spacious desk and not too mention the closet!
The closet alone was the size of my room back home.
It was filled with elegant dresses and matching shoes, with every outfit was matching accessories.
I couldn't believe my eyes , they must be betraying me right now or maybe I was in a deep sleep and I would suddenly wake up and realise it was just one of my fantasies.
Somebody pinch me now!
"Mom this room is ...there is no words to describe it!"I exclaimed running to hug her.
"I'm glad you like it sweetie, I'll leave you to get your rest , I know you've had a pretty long journey, go freshen up and get some sleep, your father said that he has something important to discuss with you as soon as he reaches home, which would be in a few hours."
"Okay mom."I said smiling brightly.
She walked out shutting the door softly behind her.
Sigh, I had this whole room all to myself, I wasn't sure where to begin, lie in the comfy bed, watch t.v, listen music or read a romance novel!
Unfortunately I couldn't do any, I still had to freshen up and I was already wrapped in my towel.
Which brought me to the question, where was the bathroom?
I leaped across the room, searching for any doors, a room this big and no bathrooms?Just my luck!
I opened the door and peaked outside making sure no one was outside, only when I was completely sure it was safe to move did I start walking, more like running!
I found another room, which was slightly ajar and stepped in, looking around frantically.
Thankfully I did find a shower in there, however there were more masculine products, even the soap had a masculine scent to it, come to think of it , the scent reminded me a lot of Jace's attractive scent.
It was not until I was out of the shower did I realise I was in Jace's room.
It had to be his, considering all the pictures of him and trophies etc.
How could I have been so stupid?
He would be extremely angry that I used his shower.
Then again he wasn't home so I was safe, what he didn't know wouldn't hurt him, right?
Wrong!
I had spoken to soon!
In front of me was a huge screen with people staring at me with interest on the other side.
What the hell?
I felt my cheeks heat up, why was there a screen full of people looking like they were in a meeting staring at me?
Then it hit me, this wasn't just his room, it must be his office also!
But why the hell did he leave the screen on if he wasn't here!
Then a pair of blue eyes caught my attention, and there he was more handsome than ever staring at me, his gaze more intense than ever.
He wasn't next to me but I could still feel goose bumps on my skin and my heart beat accelerated .
I was totally embarrassed!
What was I to do now?
