36 What a feisty tigress

Jason did as he promised, he never gave Anna the chance to miss him. He called like crazy and she enjoyed picking his calls. He calls every single time when she is in school and in her dorm but whenever she goes to their parents home, which she does every weekend, he calls only at night when he was sure their parents will be asleep. In as much as the time zone of the two countries are different, he never let it hinder him from calling her and that brought them closer and more in love with each other every single day.

Days flew by and it was December in the blink of an eye, schools were on the edge of closing for the holiday season. Anna was the first to get home and every night she talked to Jason, she never misses to urge him to get back faster which he always promise to do once he was done. The snows were already piling up and everywhere was the color white, people were already putting up snowmen in front of their houses but Anna was waiting for Jason to come back because he promised that they will build theirs together which their parents seemed less concerned with, after all, they have been doing that since they were kids.

Anna was clearing the snows in their front yard, her father had told her to leave it and that he will handle it once he gets back, but she had been so bored at home with nothing to do and so decided to do it and pass the time, besides if she doesn't do it, it will be hard for her parents to pull into the driveway "my, my, what a feisty tigress" she heard and froze, she will know that voice anyway, even in her dreams, she turned around immediately to see a tall guy with blonde hair which has tiny particles of snows clinging to it. He was donned in a body warmer, gloves, a scarf was wrapped on his neck and he carried a backpack, he stood only but ten meters away from her.

"Jason!" She shouted and tossed her shovel aside before running into his arms. Jason dropped his backpack on the snow and let her jump into his arms, he spined once with her before stopping to look at her face, he really want to press his lips on hers but he was afraid, they are outside and one of their neighbors might be looking at them.

"I have missed you" he commented before crushing her body on his again.

"Me too" Anna responded before he set her back on her feet, if they are to hold each other like that for too long then people will start reading meaning in to it.

"Mom home?"

"Nope" Anna answered and his eyes brightened, he picked up his bag and dusted off the snow.

"Let's go in then" he whispered and she laughed before letting him drag her inside. Immediately they were inside the house, Jason flung his bag somewhere on the floor and pressed her on the door before crushing his lips on her. He had crazily missed her, it was so much worse now knowing that she feels the same way but it also brought some happiness along with it.

When he releases her again, they were both breathless. Anna smiled at him with her hands still wrapped on his neck "I love you."

Jason smiled and his insides jubilates when he heard that confirmation again "I love you too."

Anna bit her lip and felt the butterflies in her stomach again, this feels so good. They were both too hot now, coupled with the warmer they were putting on. They hastily removed it along with their gloves and Anna removed her beanie head warmer too.

They entangled themselves again as Jason rained kisses on her face, he lift her off her feet and carried her to the couch, he placed her there and laid on top her, Anna broke away from his kiss "we are dead meat if mom and dad should barge in now" she breathed.

"I can hear them in the driveway, besides with all the snows, they will find it difficult to drive in."

"All the more reason we won't know when they are back, because they can park away from home and trek in" she raised her eyebrow at him.

Jason but his lip "I just feel like eating you now."

"I understand" Anna smiled before pushing him away from her "you can go unpack and come help me clear the snows, hmm?"

"You can help me unpack then. What is that they say 'two are better than one'?" He raised an eyebrow and she laughed.

"I know what you are thinking."

"I'm not thinking anything" Jason hurriedly defended himself before holding her hand and offering her a killer smile "please?" He tilted his head to the left

Anna heaved a sigh "fine" she rolled her eyes when he scrambled to his feet. He picked up his bag from where he dropped it and rushed up the stairs only stopping briefly to check if she was following him. He walked into his room and just like last time, Anna had everywhere cleaned up, he turned to look at her as she entered the room and smiled.

"Thank you" he pulled her into his arms and slowly picked up, he locked the door on the process and Anna squirmed in his arms, she knew he was up to something. Before Anna can free herself from his grip, they both crashed on the bed and he was kissing her already.

"Bad boy" she said in between the kiss and he chuckled before slowly undressing her.

The went outside later and cleared all the snows, leaving their parents who didn't know Jason was back flabbergasted when they returned "Anna, did you clear the snows?" Veronica asked as she stepped into the house followed by Samuel who was still surprised. He had been rushing Veronica to round up with what she was doing because he believed he had work to do once he get home. He knocked into his wife who had frozen at the door.

He looked at her to know what was wrong only to see the young boy walking up to them with a smile, he too was shocked, didn't he say he will be coming home next week? What is he doing here now?

"Jason!" Veronica finally found her voice before smiling happily.

"Hi mom, hi dad" Jason greeted as he approached them. Veronica pulled him into her arms immediately.

"My baby boy, I have missed you so" she cheered.

"Me too mom."

"Now I know how the snows disappeared" Samuel grinned "thank you for putting a work off this old man's shoulder" he added before hugging him too. He hasn't seen him since the day he left after Thanksgiving and hell, he really do miss his son.

"I helped too dad, beside I was doing it before he came back" Anna pouted.

"Of course my sugar, I know you helped and I'm grateful" he walked up to her and placed a kiss on her forehead "I know you have daddy's interest at heart."

Anna smiled then and greeted her mom who kissed her forehead too "now the family is complete, let's prepare a nice dinner" Veronica said while clapping as she set into the kitchen, Anna and Jason had nothing to do but to follow her while Samuel slumped on the sofa.

After dinner, they all said goodnight and Veronica kissed them both before going into her room. Since she had already kissed them goodnight, both Jason and Anna knew she wouldn't be visiting their rooms again and they both rushed into Jason's room, they fell on the bed and Jason wrapped her in his arms and kissed her hair.

"So tell me" he began "how have school been like?"

"Nothing much, there is no much difference from it and highschool."

Jason chuckled at that "any secret admirer?"

"Hmm, none that I know of" she answered "but I have a lot of wooers" she looked at him and winked which he laughed at and still tried to keep his voice low.

"So, thinking about accepting anyone?"

"Not really."

"Why?"

"Because I already have all I need in a boyfriend right here" she hugged him tightly then.

Jason must admit, at that gesture, he felt warmth soured in his veins, he hugged her back and kissed her forehead "I'm happy."

"Same here" she whispered. They both remained like that and slowly drifted off to sleep.

Jason woke up late in the night and carried Anna to her room, he kissed her forehead again and gazed at her sleeping face, he doubt if they will ever be another woman that will make him feel like she does, he bent his face to hers and placed a soft kiss on her lips "I love you" he whispered and slowly left the room.

Anna's eyes opened then and she smiled "I love you too" she muttered to herself before going back to sleep.
