Convincing her (Jen and Lucas)

Jen had broken down completely. She had been holding back her feelings for so long they ended up overwhelming her. She cried about the broken relationship that she never really cried for. She cried the tears she couldn't show on her father's funeral, she cried for how wronged she felt when her mother made her out to be an ungrateful daughter.

Lucas' behaviour obviously didn't warrant the reaction she had at that moment but it acted like the trigger that opened up the dam of pent up emotions. She tried to control herself but the harder she tried to do so, the more she would cry.

She sobbed pitifully in Lucas' arms and at this point, he had figured out it must be something else because if it was just him then this would be the biggest overreaction he would have witnessed.

Jen clung to his t-shirt as she cried and before he knew it, his t-shirt was soaked with her tears.

Lucas stroked her hair and back in comfort as he whispered words of comfort in her ears. After a while Jen was able to calm down, Lucas could feel her breath hitch whenever she inhaled. He looked down as he tilted her head upwards as he was checking on her.

"Are you okay?" he asked as he looked at her bloodshot eyes and puffy nose. Jen nodded trying to hold back from talking until her breath became more stable.

"You gave me quite a scare" Lucas said as he removed some loose strands of hair that were stuck on her face.

"I'm sorry" Jen managed to whisper

"Don't apologise, you didn't do anything wrong," Lucas said before kissing her forehead. Jen rested her head on his chest since she felt tired from all the crying, his strong heartbeat comforted her and she even started feeling drowsy.

"Are you hungry?" Lucas asked as he fished his phone out of his pocket.

Jen nodded but didn't move from her position, she even got comfortable which made Lucas chuckle. He made a phone call to the reception and asked them to bring up some food for two to his floor. After leaving orders of what he wanted to eat he hung up. He sat with Jen like that for a couple of minutes as he played with her hair before she broke the silence.

"Did I make a mistake?" Jen asked seriously, her breathing had calmed down and the puffiness around her eyes had slightly reduced.

"You didn't" Lucas replied, stroking her cheek with his thumb. Her face leaned into the warmth of his palm making Lucas give her a warm smile.

"Why were you acting like that towards me?" Jen asked.

"It's nothing really, I was just being an idiot," Lucas said sheepishly. He didn't want to admit that he was being jealous.

"It's obviously something if it bothered you," Jen said her voice becoming a bit more firm.

"It really isn't a big deal," Lucas said trying to get her to drop the subject.

Jen was silent for a few seconds as she tried to remember when he started acting weird before she blurted out her suspicions.

"Is this about Jason?" Jen asked straightforwardly. She, fortunately, caught Lucas look away in his embarrassment only confirming her suspicions.

"Talk to me Lucas," Jen said she manually turned his head so he could look at her.

"I was just being unreasonable, even though I knew you were a fan, I wasn't expecting to react that way when you saw him" Lucas tried wording his explanation in such a way he wouldn't seem silly forgetting that he was being silly.

"Were you jealous?" Jen teased not expecting the nod that Lucas gave her. Her heart warmed up from his honesty and she couldn't help but think he was cute. She wrapped her arms around his neck and looked at him straight in the eyes.

"Lucas, Jason is Daniel, you are my boyfriend, and you shouldn't even compare yourself to him when it comes to who I treasure more, okay?" Jen said with confidence. She really liked Lucas, she had never seen Daniel like "that" before. Lucas nodded with a smile.

"Nonetheless, I was being insensitive and didn't realise I was making you feel this way, will you forgive me?" Jen asked with a playful pout on her lips.

Lucas had thought that she would laugh at him. He didn't think she'd say something that would warm his heart this way. He pulled one of her legs to the other side so she was straddling his lap. He held her waist and pulled her closer to him making her eyes widen.

"I wasn't being a saint either and I ended up hurting your feelings, I'm sorry" Jen had heard his apology but was distracted by the fact that his hands were resting on her backside. She made a sorry attempt of glaring at him but she was kissed.

She leaned heavily on his upper body making him lean comfortably on the back of the couch as they continued kissing. She felt his tongue trace her lower lip and she automatically separated her lips feeling his tongue slip in between them.

Lucas felt her tongue tease his and the grip he had on her backside tightened make her unconsciously moan into his mouth. Her fingers were buried in his hair as she held it in her fist while deepening the kiss. Lucas could feel his lower half start to react to her movements as she was unconsciously grinding herself on him.

It was not long till Jen felt his warm hands creep under her shirt, she felt that she couldn't lose out so she stopped kissing his lips and transferred her attention towards his neck. However, as soon as things started getting heated they heard the sound of the doorbell.

"Our food is here" Lucas announced giving Jen a lingering kiss on her lips before depositing her on the couch and going to get the door.
