Friendly Concern || Mack and Jason

Jason shrugged. “Just wondering,” he replied. “You are in a relationship with Soph and you did see your friend get kidnapped because of that. Also you let a near stranger into your home.”

Jason narrowed his eyes. “Yeah, but if someone wanted to hurt you they probably wouldn’t come knocking on the front door. And they wouldn’t give you time to grab a gun. They’d probably have their own.” he shrugged. “You probably don’t actually have anything to worry about. I only know you exist because we met, she keeps a lot of her personal life a secret.”


Sophie glanced at her phone as she got the message from Mack. She was still driving, and she couldn’t get to her phone immediately. Once she safely could, she grabbed it and typed out, on my way, be there in a few minutes.

Jason nodded. “Yeah, I’m done,” he replied, handing her the cup.

Jason nodded. “I’m good,” he replied, pulling out his phone. It was too early in the day for any work emergencies to come up, but he still liked staying up to date. Between his friends and family he was responsible for managing a lot of chaos.


A few moments later, Sophie opened the front door. She spotted Jason immediately, then looked round for Mack. She frowned when she didn’t see her. “Where is she?” she demanded.

Jason lifted his hands in the air in a show of innocence. “Do you really think I’d hurt her? Why would I do that?” he said. Sophie narrowed her eyes, not believing his act for a second. She wouldn’t be happy until she saw Mack.

Sophie looked up as she heard Mackenzie’s voice. “Good,” she sighed. “Are you alright? You’re not hurt or anything are you?”

“She‘s not hurt,” Jason rolled his eyes. She glared at him then looked back at her fiancé. She wanted to hear it from her.

Sophie took Mackenzie’s hands on hers as the girls approached. She narrowed her eyes. “You don’t need to be a good hostess to him, he shouldn’t be here in the first place.” she replied sharply. “Go home, Jason, you’re not welcome here.”

“Yeah, I don’t really care what you think,” Jason replied, crossing his arms. “You don’t just get to ghost and walk away without any warning.”

Sophie raised an eyebrow. “Really? Because I’m pretty sure I did and it’s going fine.”

“And where are you working now, Valerie?” he snapped back. “You don’t have a history of picking good jobs.”

“Get out of my apartment, Jason.” she said cooly.
