Ben P.O.V
-----------------
I got done Putting Jade down in the bed and headed up to Kayla. Once I got inside the room she was on the bed on her phone.
Once she heard me come in she looked at me and smiled. I returned it back but soon frowned.
"What are you doing here?" I asked her. Seeing her here was making my headache even worse.
I didn't want anyone to see her here. Jade's brother would be here in a few hours, and so would Jade's mother.
"What can I not visit you?" Kayla asked. She patted a spot next to her on the bed for me to come to sit down.
I listened to her, but I didn't have all day. "No, you can't," I answered back.
She frowned. She looked at me with tears in her eyes.
' f**k' I mentally cursed myself.
"Don't cry. That's the last thing I can handle right now. Please don't cry. What's been going on Kayla talk to me."
I asked her. It wasn't like I didn't care for her. I didn't want her to think that but whoever made her feel this way is going to pay.
"You, you d-don't know the awful things t-that they done when you left!" Kayla told me in between sobs.
I took Kayla in my arms rubbing her back. "Who did this to you?" I asked her to get offensive.
"You know exactly who," Kayla answered.
I knew that it meant one thing and only two people that we both knew. We deeply hated them. "Bill and Diane?"
I asked. I knew she didn't have the strength to talk anymore, so she just nodded her head.
"Here you can stay. I can get you some clothes in the meanwhile just take a nap I will be right back.
Jade's P.O.V
------------------
Jade woke up to the smell of food cooking. She went downstairs to see what Ben was cooking.
When she reached the kitchen she saw Ben on the stove whipping up something delicious.
She went to sit down on the kitchen counter to watch him work. He turned around to see that Jade was there, and smiled.
"Did you have a nice nap princess?" Ben asked Jade. Jade smiled and nodded her head.
"What's for dinner?" Jade asked. She got off the counter, and near the stove, right beside him to see what he was cooking.
He grabbed her waist and gave her a quick peck on the lips. "I know it wasn't part of the deal I just couldn't help it."
He explained to Jade. Jade tried not to blush but miserably failed. "We are having hamburger helper." He answered her.
"Mmm, it smells delicious!" Jade complimented, which only made him smile. He kissed her on the cheek.
"I'm glad to hear that. Now run along I will call you when dinner is done." Jade grunted but went back upstairs.
On her way to her room, she heard movement in Ben's room. Curiosity got the best of Jade, and she went to go check it out.
She quietly opened the door and found that it was pitch black. She turned the hall light on so she could see just a little bit into Ben's room.
Jade stepped into the bedroom when she thought she saw a figure in the bed. To be more precise Bens bed.
She turned the light on to see a female in his bed. She gasped and felt her vision become blurry.
Jade turned the light off and accidentally slammed the door behind her.
'what should I care he is sleeping with another female. He is an adult he can do what he wants to. Just not in my house!'
Jade quickly goes downstairs and goes to where Ben was once again making dinner. She stopped halfway there to hear him on the phone with someone.
"Yeah, I know. She just I have to look after her, and I hope it's okay. She is important to me, and wouldn't ask this unless I had to."
Ben told the person on the phone.
Jade ran out of breath once she heard in her head over, and over again 'she is important to me.'
With that Jade ran back upstairs into her room. She shut the door carefully not to disturb a sleeping Lashai and had her back on the door.
Jade's vision became blurry as they filled with tears, and all she could think about was him sleeping around with the female in his bed.
She was pretty, prettier than Jade would ever be. With that thought, Jade couldn't help, but feel jealous at the bottom of her stomach.
Minutes passed, and she didn't know how long she had remained in that position with her back against the door crying.
' I shouldn't care I was just doing this for fun, it shouldn't matter who he screws. He's a grown man.'
Jade told herself this over, and over again trying to make herself feel better, but it only made things worse.
She heard Ben downstairs say it was time for dinner. Jade had dreaded for when she had to go back down there and face him.
She went to wash her face, and fix herself like it didn't faze her. Knowing that Lashai was on her phone, and said she didn't want anything she went down to face him by herself.
She goes downstairs and sees the dining table with two plates on in front of the other. Ben smiles at from in front of the table.
She frowns and rolls her eyes which just earns a smirk from him. She goes to sit at one end where a plate is.
Ben comes to where she was before she could sit down, and pulls the chair out for her.
She ignored the small deed that he had done for her and started eating her food not paying him any attention.
Once he got seated he looked at Jade to see if it tasted any good. She ignored him and didn't say one word to him.
He frowned noticing that she wasn't talking, and hasn't said anything like she normally would have.
"How is it?" He asked her while he took a bite out of his food. She glares at him not even meaning to but naturally did.
"It's okay I have tasted better." She replied. He frowned at her response and raised an eyebrow at her confused.
"What's with that attitude?" He asked. She put her utensils down and glared at him more.
"What attitude I don't have an attitude! Actually, it seems like you have an attitude!" She replied almost screaming but controlled her voice.
He stopped eating and looked at Jade shocked that she had gone off on him. "Okay, what's wrong?" He asked.
Jade saw that in his eyes he held the emotions hurt, confused, and shocked.
Jade looked at him madder than she has ever been. Well, as hurt as she has ever been. How dare he look hurt, he doesn't deserve to be hurt when he is the one who hurt me. Jade thought to herself.
"You wanna know what's wrong?! Who is she?" Jade asked. She wasn't sad anymore she was hurt.
Ben looked at her in confusion. "Who is what?" He asked back in confusion.
"Who.Is.That.Female in your room?!" Jade asked letting jealousy and rage take over.
She saw Ben laugh at her which only made her madder. "What's so funny?!"Jade asked while she stood up.
Ben stopped laughing for a moment.
"Princess, are you jealous?" He asked Jade.
Jade realized the way she had been acting and calmed down. She tried not to show any emotion but failed.
"No." Jade replied as calmly as she could. She knew she was lying, but she didn't want to admit that.
Ben came all the way to Jade, and wrapped his arms around her waist, and whispered in her ear.
"Good, but what if I told you that you had the right to be jealous. The girl in my bedroom is my girlfriend who I kept secret."
Jade looked at him in pure horror. How could he do such a thing! She thought to herself.
"YOU ANIMAL!" Jade yelled at him as she squirmed to get loose from him.
All this time she has been making love to a man who has a girlfriend, let alone he was her teacher.
Jade tried to get loose, but he held on to her too tight. "Is she a student just like me, and have you been doing this with women you have every chance you get? You should be ashamed of yourself!"
Jade yelled at Ben. Ben laughed and took Jade's chin to look up at him. She jerked her head away not wanting to be anywhere near him, but as far away from him.
"Sweetheart I said the word if. That just goes to show that your jealous of seeing me with other women that like me."
Ben whispered in her ear. Jade tried to stay mad, but he was too close for her to stay that way.
She was jealous, but she wasn't going to admit easy. She was lost in her mind when he told her something.
He let go of her but kept a hold of her hand. "She's my-"
