Jace saw Phillips face narrow with anger and laughed to himself. "Dude I told you. You gave up your chance on that piece of pure perfection the night you didn't show up that pub with her." he said looking at him as Phillips hand clench.
He shook his head getting the much needed confirmation he needed. Although what he had seen outside was a huge hint, especailly when he saw Kate's apparent best friend wrap his arm around her waist and look at her the way only
he should as her boyfriend.
"Oh does that make you angry dude?" he asked goading Phillip on. "We'll here's a news flash, your her best friend yes but, I am her boyfriend. I am the one she seeks comfort from now, I am her protector, I am the one that sleeps next to her at night, the first and only one who has ever had her. Your days of being the number one in her life are over. You would do well to realize that."
Jace smirk to himself seeing something snap in the kid as he moved himself off the counter.

Kate had showered and changed into her
pajamas before heading downstairs to the kitchen to what felt like a tense atmosphere as Phillip walked towards Jace. "What are you boys talking about?" She asked grabbing a bottle of water from the fridge before walking over to Jace.
"Nothing babe." he said wrapping an arm around Kate, placing a kiss on my neck right below her ear. "You smell amazing normally, but when you come out of the shower." he chuckled against her skin making her shiver. He looked at Phillip knowing this was getting to him as he said the next part loud enough for him "I can't wait to see what surprise you have waiting for me underneath this."
Kate smiled shaking her head, not realizing what Jace was doing to Phillip. "Go shower Jace...I'll be up...I promise." she said kissing him sweetly before pushing him towards the door gently.
"Alright babe. I will come to your room later." he said kissing her one last time before leaving the kitchen.
She turned back around looking at Phillip. She frowned seeing the look on his face. "Sorry about that..." she said walking over to him. She sighed, "Do you want to watch an old French movie like we used to...you can still translate it for me even though I know what it says now?" she offered wanting the look on his face to go away immediately. She could seethe questions floating in his head. Now the only thing left to wonder was what were they about.
