Mission XX: Seducing The Great Seducer

"Should I tell her not to come out because you don\'t want to see her...,"

"You...," the speechless Jeff who realized that he had been caught could not utter any more words.

"Guys, what about Ice Prince? Why wasn\'t he with you guys?" Jasmine quickly changed the topic when she recall that Jackson wasn\'t with them when they entered the room.

"We told him that we are gonna come today but I am sure that he doesn\'t know that we have arrived. We were too eager to see you to remember anything about him," Evelyn replied in a serious tone.

"I am sure he is gonna kick our ass when he learns that the first place we visited was your hotel room," Jeff said. The moment Jeff finished speaking, they all heard a knock on the door.

"Come in, the door isn\'t locked," Jasmine said loud enough for the person standing outside to hear.

"Speaking of the devil," Jeff blurted out the moment Jackson wearing a white short sleeve on top of short white trousers entered the room. Jackson was surprised to see them but he quickly composed himself.

"Were you all talking about me?" Jackson asked as he approach the couch Jasmine was sitting on.

"Despite seeing you yesterday Jasmine missed you a lot. She was so eager to see you to the point that she could not resist asking us who just arrived for your whereabouts," Jeff said as he resist the urge to laugh.

"Pretty boy, what the heck are you saying, I did not say anything like that," Jasmine instantly denied as she threw a murderous glance at the naughty guy.

"You didn\'t but your expression and eyes said all that needed to be said," Evelyn said to the surprise of Jasmine.

"Hey, Evelyn why are you supporting him. You know he is spouting nonsense," Jasmine said, feeling ganged upon. She did not know what wrong she did to them for them to do this to her.

"Jasmine is what they are saying true?" Jackson asked. Although he knew that the others might be lying he still wanted to confirm it from her.

"I indeed ask them about you but none of the other things they said is true. They are just ganging up on me because I teased them earlier," Jasmine quickly explained herself.

"Really?" Jackson asked suspiciously.

"Of course I am saying the truth. Would you believe that I said or did all they said?" Jasmine asked.

Those responsible for this watched them in delight. They could not resist smiling when they saw that their plan had worked.

"Jack, what the heck did you come to a single lady\'s room so early in the morning to do? Don\'t you know how dangerous and unsafe that can be?" Evelyn asked curiously. From her tone and expression, one could notice that she had ulterior motives.

"What about you guys...,"

"Stop trying to evade the question, Jack," Evelyn who could see through Jackson tactics interrupted him sharply.

"Stop staring at me and answer their question because I want to know what you are doing here. Did you perhaps prepare a surprise for me?" Jasmine asked anxiously as she stares at his face.

"Wow, a surprise?" Jeff exaggerated as he winked at Steve and Evelyn as a signal for them to play along.

"Yeah, I did prepare a buffet breakfast for I and Jasmine but unfortunately none of you is included in the buffet," Jackson said to the disappointment of the already two excited guys.

"Whoa... so it was a surprise date then," Evelyn said with a tone filled with so much mischief.

"You guys shouldn\'t get upset that Jack doesn\'t want us there, he is afraid that you both will ruin his date. His fears are justified if you sit and think a little about it," Evelyn teased further as she smiled wickedly.

"Come on guys what is wrong with all of you today? Why are you all ganging up on me?" Jasmine asked curiously. She has been watching them since Jackson arrived and it looked like they were all deliberately attacking her.

"Jasmine, let them do what they like because the three are always like this. They are a perfect match when they are together," Jackson said in a calm tone.

"Let me go freshen up so we can go to have breakfast. I can\'t wait to see what you have prepared," Jasmine said excitedly as she stood up.

"I was thinking of asking you guys to join us but with you guys sitting there without freshening up I think I should change my mind about that," Jasmine who was almost at the door turned and stare at them.

"Who says we aren\'t gonna go freshen up? We were just about to leave before you turn around," Jeff blurted out to the shock of the others.

He has become fantastic at lying!

Evelyn thought as she stare at Jeff now standing. The three of them afterwards left the room to go freshen up and change into something new.

After they had left, Jasmine still standing in the same position shifted her gaze to Jackson.

"I will be out in a jiffy so just hold on," Jasmine said before she turned to open the door.

"You can take your time because I am good at waiting. I have waited for over ten months for you to look my way not to mention you reciprocating my feelings so compare the few minutes I will wait with the ten months you can see that it is nothing," Jackson mumbled but to his surprise, he did not know that Jasmine heard him mumbling something.

"Did you say something?" Jasmine turned and asked curiously.

"I said you should hurry up or else the food is gonna get cold," Jackson lied without batting an eyelid.

"Ok, Master, your wish is my command," Jasmine said playfully before she entered the bedroom.

"Thank goodness she didn\'t hear anything, that was close!" Jackson said as he placed his hand on his pounding chest.
