Chapter 41 - Fan

Lucas had returned from the garage only to be greeted by this sight. Jen was frozen at the spot he had left her, with wide eyes and her mouth hanging open looking up the stairs. As he checked what had her looking that way he saw his brother's amused smile, all of a sudden he felt tired.

Lucas walked towards her and held her arm which startled her out of her reverie. She couldn't even find it in herself to be embarra.s.sed.

"I-it's Daniel," Jen said in a low whisper that only Lucas heard. He couldn't help the sigh that escaped his lips and he nodded.

"Hi, I'm Jason," Jason said stretching out his arm for a handshake. Jen stared at his hand for a few seconds before shaking it with both her hands. She really wanted to scream with excitement but she figured that she would be going overboard.

She had been his fan since she was 19 when he had first debuted as a singer. Whenever he had come to her city for a concert she always made sure to attend. Of course as the years pa.s.sed she got too busy to be the devoted fan she used to be so seeing him stand in front of her wearing a pair of distressed and a wide-collared white sweater that exposed his s.e.xy collar bones and his hair that had been dyed white and the black diamond studs in his ears, she couldn't help but revert back to the days when she used to be a fan.

"I'm Jen" was all she could say. At this point, even Lucas was amused. He couldn't help but wonder how much of a fan she actually was. Jen realised she had held his hand for a bit too long and quickly released it.

"I'm a huge fan" Jen couldn't help but say as if she was trying to explain her behaviour.

"Me too" Jason replied with a smile.

"Huh?" Jen asked a bit puzzled.

"I check the internet often, you're the first woman he has shown off publicly like that" Jason said as he pointed at Lucas with his chiselled chin before going down the rest of the stairs. As they were both standing next to each other Jen could see their differences.

Lucas was slightly bulkier than Jason, but they were pretty much equally tall, and where Lucas had hazel eyes Jason had grey eyes.

"Why are you here?" Lucas asked

"Besides it being my parent's house. I was too tired to go home from the airport last night" Jason said and walked towards the living room. Jen grabbed on to Lucas' arm as he was walking towards the living room.

"Do you like him that much?" Lucas couldn't help but ask. Jen nodded absentmindedly as she looked at Jason's back since he was walking ahead of them.

"Lucas" Jen suddenly called

"What is it?"

"Have you considered dying your hair white?" Jen asked, she wasn't serious, but her question implied that Lucas' looks were so similar to his brother's he'd probably look the same.

Lucas felt complicated when he heard her question and chose not to answer it. The two of them were waiting for h.e.l.len to come back so they can say their goodbyes before they leave.

As the three of them sat at the living room Jason couldn't help but study Jen as she was talking to Lucas. He did not have the smile that he constantly carried when he was outside but had a slightly cunning look in his eyes.

"Do you model? Miss Jen" Jason asked. Jen was surprised by the random question, in addition to that he called her miss, which made her feel very awkward.

"Oh no, I'm an entrepreneur slash student" Jen replied with a smile.

"Have you ever considered modeling?" Jason asked again.

"Are you seriously trying to recruit my girlfriend?" Lucas asked incredulously.

"She has a lot of potential, I can't help but feel that it's a waste," Jason said nonchalantly. It would be a lie if Jen said that she was not flattered, she had gotten a lot of offers even when she was still in high school but she never entertained the idea.

"I have received offers but I never really thought about it" Jen replied.

"You can tell me when you're interested, I can get James to give you a pretty decent contract," Jason said with a smile. Lucas was obviously not happy about this but at the end of the day if she decides to become a model he wouldn't stop her.

Unfortunately, he was overthinking things. Jen was not someone who could tolerate living in the spotlight like that. She was already feeling uneasy about being the heir's "future wife" as the tabloid had put it, she wouldn't be able to deal with it if she had to stand it if her life was constantly under scrutiny.

"I'll let you know if that ever happens" Jen replied. Soon enough h.e.l.len walked into the living room only to see her two sons and her future daughter-in-law talk animatedly. This picture would be perfect if that second son of hers had come with a girlfriend of his own.

She joined in the conversation but soon after the couple had said their goodbyes since Lucas still had to unpack. As they stood outside waiting for Lucas' car to be brought Jen couldn't help but turn to Jason and ask.

"I'm sorry if I'm being too forward but can I take a picture with you?" Jen asked a bit shyly. Almost immediately a sour look appeared on Lucas' face.

"Sure" Jason replied with a charming smile. Jen took out her phone planning to take a selfie but Jason took it instead and wanted to give it to Lucas to take the picture for them instead, but after seeing the disapproval on his face he gave up on the idea.

"I'll do it," Jason said as he put his arm around her shoulders and took a photo of the two of them with big smiles on their faces. When he handed her phone back to her Jen couldn't stop the happiness she felt.

"Can I post this?" she asked.

"Go ahead, no one will know where you were anyway," Jason said before waving his goodbye and going back to the house.

Although Lucas was slightly annoyed, he still opened the car door for her when the car arrived. She waved her goodbye to h.e.l.len before the car departed. She was in a very good mood a stark contrast against Lucas who had a gloomy expression on his face.
