Mafia Princess

Chapter 32

Jason P.O.V.

Living with her has been different, to say for the most part. Maybe that's because I'm fully aware of her whole identity now. Anyway, I've been trying to cut back a bit when she's there. I haven't smoked nor drank anything the moment she arrived and I'm worried if I'm about to go clean in my life. While there were some moments where we would get along like normal, there were some that really had to have us think about the situation.

As it is right now, the whole one guy and one girl living under one roof are really putting some tension. I can't do my business like I used to, all my stuff is under lock and key in my room, and don't even get me started with the distance between us. I can't look at her the same as I used to. Now that I'm giving her a ride to her school and I can clearly see her wearing her Richard costume on my side mirror, I'm about to lose it.

I can tell that she was putting some distance between us while she was behind me and I did try to brake as carefully as I can so I won't accidentally touch her with my back, but sometimes there are those times where it did happen and I touched her.

Two things were on my mind when it did. The first being damn, it's flat. Believe me when I say that she actually isn't. She does have a decent size bust on her. While I will admit I slightly think of her in that context, I'm more on the side where how the hell did she hide it so easily. But then again she has done this for her whole life. And the second thing on my mind is that I am a nervous wreck whenever I touch her. Either it's because she's a girl and she's more delicate than before or it's because I am very slowly and very slightly got a feeling for her.

Before long, we finally reached her school. It looked the same as any school except this group of guys that stared at her menacingly but they didn't stick around for long when they caught me looking at them. What was that about? There was a feeling in the back of my head that they somehow looked familiar but I didn't bother to think about it too much.

I scanned the yard more and I saw Gabriel and Kathleen in their high school cover. They were briefed that they were only going to observe Christine in a distance, only stepping up if necessary in the situation.

Christine was about to walk away when I called for her attention. I could tell she wanted to walk away at this moment now that we were slowly getting some attention, from girls in particular, and of course, I wasn't interested in them at all.

"What now?" Christine had that tone that was full of annoyance but had a hint of being impatient and unsteady.

"I'm just double-checking." At this, Christine rolled her eyes at me with annoyance. She then proceeded to take out her ring of keys and showed me the pepper spray I bought for her and she even showed off the taser ring she was wearing which I also gave to her.

Now that I'm satisfied with what I see, I didn't spend too much time looking at her and just drove off. Hopefully, she'll do just fine. I felt a grin creep on my mouth as I could just see her suffering later with her mountains of homework and projects.

The moment I woke up I had a bad headache and my ears are just ringing. The first thing I did was check my phone. The text woke me up as it was from Michael.

SUBJECT: Cover Story

MESSAGE: You really shouldn't expect people will just accept that fact she was gone for almost a month and you as well for almost a week. The cover story here is that she finally met her father whom she has never seen since birth and you were just there for her as support. Christine will be bringing the papers to further prove her story. DNA tests and the like. You just have to help her out while she's at school.
