CLOSED STARTER FOR @labyrinthinesyndicatex FT. JASMINE & GRANT

when grant asked to see her, she'd been a little surprised. jasmine was usually the one who bothered him to keep her company but this time, it was different. the moment she heard her doorbell, she made her way to the door and opened it, waving him inside. "i was just making dinner. you're welcome to join me." she wasn't sure if he would but she thought that throwing the offer out there might be nice. the woman closed the door behind her and glanced over at the man, "everything okay? do you…want to talk about whatever's bothering you?"

while she wanted to believe that she wasn't the kind of person to group one crowd of people together, she had a hard time not doing that when it came to anyone associated with her ex husband's family. so, a scowl managed to make its way onto her face at the sight of grant. she couldn't tell if he were moving to walk past her or if he were walking toward her, either way, she was going to make some sort of remark. she wasn't the type to keep her mouth shut. "my ex husband send you to give me a message? i guess my silence isn't a good enough hint that i'd prefer not to talk to him."

disappointment filled jasmine's body the moment she woke up on the couch - alone. what she thought had been a turn in events and an upgrade in their relationship, hadn't meant anything. he was gone, which she should have expected. grant had warned her early on that he didn't do the emotion stuff and so, she didn't know what she thought would happen. this was devil's junction. not some random fairytale where all of her wishes would come true. she was outside doing some gardening, trying to keep herself busy, when he pulled up in her driveway. he'd already seen her so it's not like she could pretend she wasn't home. "you must be bored if you're here." she commented as she heard his footsteps behind her.

things between her and Grant had changed drastically since he saved her from Emilio. She wasn’t sure if it was the fact that the two of them managed to trauma bond or if it was because he genuinely enjoyed her company. Either way, she didn’t think that he was all that bad and she wanted to spend time with him when she could. After all, it seemed as though all her friends had someone to go to the festival with except her and so, she forced Grant to join her. “Come on, at least there’s food and wine involved. I’m sure the wine being served is a lot better than that shitty champagne we were served at the charity event.” Anything was better than that though. She still couldn’t believe how cheap the family had been. As the two approached things, she glanced up at the taller male. “Are you going to judge me if I day drink? I could use a glass of wine after my week at the school this week. Can you believe I had to pull apart two 13 year olds from killing each other over a comic book?”

things were only looking up when it came to her relationship with grant. jasmine still wasn't quite sure what they were but they were definitely more than friends, and she was convinced of that the more time the two of them spent together. with her fingers intertwined with his and a grin spread over her face, she peered up at him, "that was nice. maybe next time you can actually let me pay for dinner for once. that, or you're going to have to take me to mcdonald's. these places you've been taking me are way too ni-" she was interrupt by a familiar laugh, a bitter one. her stomach sank and the smile fell from her face, "now it all makes sense, old man. i didn't think you'd ever be stupid enough to turn your back on the family for no reason."
