“Jo… John,” Jasper stammered.
Jonathan ignored him, stepping past to take the box from my hands.
“I’ll say this once–don’t bother Katie again.”
Jasper’s face twisted with resentment, but he didn’t dare show it in front of Jonathan. Still, he couldn’t completely

“John, you know Katherine is my girlfriend…”
“Since you’ve broken up, she’s not your girlfriend anymore.”
“I said that only because I was angry and couldn’t swallow my pride!”
“I don’t care about that.”
Jonathan freed one hand to pull me close, casting a cold glance at Jasper.
“If Katie says it’s over, then it’s over.”
“John!”
“If you’re so upset, don’t call me anymore.”

Jonathan smirked slightly. “After all, the Claytons and Suttons aren’t really related.”

“Okay, I’m posting it then.”

“Happy?”
“Mm, super happy!”
He turned his head slightly, pressing a soft kiss to my cheek
“Katherine, I’m really happy too.”
The light turned green. So, he started driving again.
The road ahead was long, but my happiness with Jonathan had only just begun.
