39. Jealousy

Third Person's POV:

"Get out, Rafael." Eva shoved Rafael outside.

"What? That's also my room; why can't I come in?" Rafael objected.

"Because you have to go get your date," scoffed Astrid.

Rafael smirked as he sensed Astrid's envy. "Are you jealous?" he asked.

"No, I have a date coming up," Astrid lied, uncertain about her plans after venting her rage at Rafael.

Rafael was clearly having a good time in this setting. Why wouldn't he? He, too, didn't have a 'date,' but he wanted Astrid to tell him that she wanted to go with him.

His blood boiled at the thought of Astrid leaving with someone else....
