Chapter 20 - you deserve the slap

The Smiths mansion, they sat down at the dinning table to eat as a family.

" Dad, I'll be using the penthouse tonight" Jenna said

" Sure" her dad said

" Where's Jason?" Her mum asked

" He hasn't come back yet" Jeremy said

" How is the new girl doing?" Her dad asked

" Kiara?" Jenna asked to be sure

" Yeah"

" Why are you so interested in this girl" her mum said

" It's politics, she's staying with the simon so if we get her on our side it's easier to have them on our side too" he said

" But we already got Peter" she said

" We need more assurance" he said

" Why are we even talking about politics here" she said

" You brought it up" he said

" Jeremy, how are things going in school?"she asked

" Good" Jeremy said

" That's all I can get" she said

" Yes, it's good. That's all" he said and she scoffed

" It's really hard to get to you children" she says and Jason walked in pressing his phone

" Jason" she called

" What is it?" He asked still not taking his eyes of his phone

" Why are you just coming?" She asked

" I was busy" he said

" Doing what?" She asked

" None of your business" he said

" Jason" his dad said cautioning him

" I had some things to take care of" Jason said

" Come join us" she said

" I'm not hungry" he said going upstairs

" But...."

" Let him be Rose" his dad said cutting her short and she sighed

" I'm done" she said getting up and went to her room

" I'll go check up on her, you guys finish up" her dad said going after her

" You look good" Jeremy said

" Thank you"

" I mean really good"

" What is it Jeremy ?"

" So, this party" Jeremy said

" Nope"

" Come on, just this once. I promise you won't even notice me"

" I don't want some middle school kids to fuck this up for me"

" We won't, it's just me and the girls" he said and she took in deep breaths

" Fine"

" Yes, I love you" he said pecking her on the cheeks

" But.."

" There's a but, come on"

" You owe me one"

" Sure, anytime" he said getting up and she smiled. Then Peter walked in.

" My man" Jeremy said shaking him

" Jason?" He asked

" He's in his room" Jenna said

" Thanks" Peter said and left

" What's wrong with him?" Jeremy asked

" I don't know, probably in a bad mood" Jenna said

" I'm about to go pick my party outfit" he said break dancing as he left and she just shook her head

" I wonder what's up with him" she thought and she got up and followed him

" Hey, what's up" Jason asked as Peter entered his room and landed on the sofa

" Mind if I crash at your place for eternity" Peter said

" What did you do this time?" Jason asked

" I fucked up"

" Is it about that girl you're crushing on"

" Yeah"

" What happened this time"

" She had some issues with her bf, he cheated on her and I helped her get back at him and she got angry and slapped me"

" How did you get back at him?"

" Sent him a video of me and her"

" You deserve the slap"

" Seriously man, you're meant to be on my side"

" Well, I'm not going to side the wrong person"

" I was just trying to help"

" You just made things worse, made her look like a cheater as well"

" What should I have done?"

" Nothing"

" Nothing?"

" Yeah"

" He really hurt her"

" And how does what you do hurt him?"

" I don't know, he was hurt because he really likes her"

" And how are you sure she doesn't like him"

" She still does but she hates him more"

" And how are you sure she is interested in you?"

" I don't know, she kissed me last night thought she was drunk but she apologized for kissing me without my permission not kissing me"

" So the video you did, did she have any idea?"

" No"

" So she willing gave herself to you"

" I kind of seduced her"

" Peter"

" But I didn't take it too far, I stopped before it turns into something"

" Well, you need to fix this buddy"

" How?"

" I don't know, what ever you did that made her angry undo it"

" How?,"

" Are you sure it's the video that got her upset or something you did or said after that?"

" I did say some harsh words"

" Classic Peter"

" I was upset"

" Apologize, you've been good at it these days"

" You're still mad about Tory's apology"

" It's trending everywhere"

" We deserved it"

" What's gotten into you"

" I'm trying to be less of a jerk"

" I preferred when you weren't in love, just a nonchalant playboy"

" I'm still a playboy"

" Really, you didn't even look at those cheerleading girls that approached you once"

" They weren't my type"

" Just go get your girl and stop bringing your problems to me, it's tiring"

" So, it's actually Kiara my dear Peter is crushing on. She was the one that kissed him last night, Leo wasn't wrong. I'm so glad I invited her over tonight, let the game begin" Jenna thought as she went to her room.

Her phone rang, it was a call from YIN

" What's up, I was looking for you everyway. You just vanished from school all of a sudden" Jenna said

" I wasn't feeling too well"

" You could have at least told me, you got me worried Elena"

" I was looking around for you but I didn't see you so I left"

" Oh, it most be when I went to the infirmary"

" Infirmary?, what happened?"

" I sprained my ankle"

" You could have called me to help"

" I didn't want to stress you"

" Who helped you then?"

" Huh?"

" Who helped you to the infirmary, you couldn't have gone on your own since you sprained your ankle"

" Oh yes, p..Peter helped me"

" Oh, that's good. You two are getting closer"

" Yeah, we definitely are"

" I'm so happy for you"

" Yeah, you coming to the party tonight right?"

" Yeah, regarding that"

" What happened, don't tell me you won't come"

" I will if you let me"

" Let you?, of course I will"

" Let me come with him"

" Who?"

" Leo"

" Leo?"

" Yeah, I know you don't like him around me but he's a sweet guy"

" Elena"

" He asked me to be his date tonight, and I couldn't say no. And I didn't want to miss your party too say I invited him over"

" Elena"

" I know you're angry but I really like him"

" Elena, he's not good for you"

" But he is for you"

" Huh?"

" I mean he is your kind of guy, he's hot, muscular, sweet with girls"

" Yeah but he's poor, definitely not my type."

" I don't see anything bad in being poor"

" Status matters Elena, it's Leo we are talking about here. He's very poor, he can't even afford to take you on a proper date. He is the kind that depends on rich girls like us for money, he can do anything for money. He's just a low life forget him"

" But"

" Elena, I don't have issues if you invited him for the party. He's friends are also coming as well, but he's not good for you.. for both of us"

" If you say so"

" Okay, see you soon"

" See you" Elena said and hang up

" Now, it's gonna be fun. This party is gonna be lit" Elena said smiling
