At noon, Jase's mom, Jase, his best friend Tyler and Tyler's girlfriend Shanika pulled up at my house. Jase came to the doorstep to greet me personally even though I was halfway down the driveway.
"Hey, Cathy." Jase smiled in a casual way, but it turned my insides into sugary sweet syrup.
"Hi...Jase..." I said
"Hey, you gonna get in the car?" He asks.
"Of course." I said.

We had a great time at the beach. Well mostly.
This is what happened, roughly.

"Hey Cathy I got us ice cream." Jase offered.
"You really are too nice, Jase." I said.
"Just take one, I'm not gonna stand here eating one of them while watching the other one melt into the sand." Jase holds them out to me. "I got one strawberry, one chocolate."
"Um, OK, strawberry, please." I took the cone.
"So...um."

"Hey, where's Kassi? I kinda thought she'd be here." I asked.

"Kassi? Oh yeah, I broke up with her."

"Oh."

Skip to a few hours later...

"Ahem, hello babe!" A mean voice said from behind me and Jase. We were sitting on a bench looking out to the ocean. We decided not to swim because a thundercloud was peering around the horizon.

"Uhm." Me and Jase spun around zippy quick.

"Jase, are you seeing this girl behind my back?" Kassi sniffed.

"Kassi, what are you-"

"Doing here? Let's just say I always have a sixth sense when it comes to your location." She smirked.

"Is that called a stalker's GPS?" I asked.

Jase laughed. 

The thundercloud tore and released a light rain.

"Baby, you're with me, not this RAT GIRL." Kassi sneered. "Aren't you?" She gave him no time to answer. Instead, she simply walked up to him and smushed her mouth on Jase's. I think she gave him a tongue-in-the-mouth as well, but Jase appeared to be doing nothing about it. The thundercloud ripped some more and broke into a heavy rain. Great. It's a book. The Romantic Rain Kiss: Kassi and Jase.

"Jase!" I shrieked. "How could you? You lied!" I shouted.

"Catherine! It's not what you think!" Jase cried.

" 'Said every single guy in the history of cheaters!' " I finished for him. "Face it. You're a cheater." Apparently, the thundercloud wanted to shout too, and screamed in stormy rain.

I stomped away. Not only was there a storm going on out here, but there was a storm going on in my heart as well.

And that, my people, concludes my "happy happy day" with Jase "The Cheater" Fexenburg.
