Mission XX: Seducing The Great Seducer

"The flowers are lovely. The purple rose in the middle makes me fall even more in love with it but can you tell me why you are giving me flowers. It\'s not my birthday or Valentine\'s Day and even though it was these two special occasions you were not supposed to give a bouquet of rose since you are not my lover," Jasmine said not collecting the bouquet from him. The gossip waiter forgot what he was doing and stare at them instead.

"Have you forgotten why we are here?" Jackson tried to use the dating training as an excuse.

"Ooh....," Jasmine exclaimed in realisation as she collected the bouquet from him. The look on her face shows that she had forgotten that it wasn\'t real.

To her, it was a fake date but to Jackson everything was real. There was no words or actions of his which were not real.

"The flowers are super lovely and so is your handsome face and white suit," Jasmine complimented.

"You look amazing in that white short fitted gown too, it complements my white suit perfectly," Jackson complimented her too. The waiter was so carried away by the sweetness of these two people he thought were a couple.

"The setting is nice. The music is superb. It depicts your intention of confessing your love to her. If she is not a super dense person then with these settings alone and the flowers you won\'t need to say a word for her to know your feelings for her," Jasmine concluded with a satisfactory look on her face.

"You mean you love the setting and everything?" Jackson asked not wanting to jump to conclusions.

"Yes, I am in love with it but that I like the blue and white setting does not mean she will love it. The setting will have to base on her personality, taste and favourite colour. If you know these three things then I assure you that your proposal will be a complete success. She will be left speechless. She won\'t help but fall in love with you instantly," Jasmine said beaming at him.

"If you say so then I am sure she will love it," Jackson said smiling at her. She did not know that her beautiful words have further brightened up not only his mood but his world.

"What are you staring at?" Jackson asked the waiter who was staring at Jasmine so passionately.

"I am sorry," The waiter in white and black shirts respectively said as he carefully arranged the dishes on the white table.

After he left Jasmine and Jackson began eating. Unlike the lifeless dinner they had in his home yesterday, this one was fun. The food tastes super delicious and the atmosphere was so lovely that they could not help but immersed themselves in the sweetness of the song and atmosphere.

They both sat down and relax after their meal. Jackson turned and stare at her after he was sure that she was more relaxed. He placed his hand on the same place he kept the bouquet earlier and picked up a milky coloured card from there. He extends his hand and places it on the table in front of her.

"Is this your wedding invitation? Don\'t tell me you planned on marrying her the moment she agreed to your proposal?" Jasmine asked not taking a proper look at the card in front of her.

"If it was a wedding card then your name should have been the one written beside mine," Jackson mumbled shifting his eyes to the milky coloured card. On the card instead of seeing his company\'s name on it, he saw Jasmine Avans weds Jackson Smith. Seeing this boldly engraved on the card he could not help but smile. His fantasy was short-lived when Jasmine waved at him.

"What are you thinking so deeply about...,"

"Our wedding!" Jackson blurted out to the shock of Jasmine.

"Our wedding?" Jasmine asked staring at him like someone who had gone insane.

"I meant to say about my wedding day with her. You talked about the wedding so my mind subconsciously went to our wedding day," Jackson quickly covered up.

"Seeing how you were smiling so radiantly I guess the mere thought of seeing her in the white flowing wedding gown made you have butterflies in your stomach," Jasmine said as she stares at Jackson who was momentarily acting like a lovestruck fool.

"Hmm... I could die from over happiness when I heard her say YES I DO," Jackson said his smile broadening even more.

"Hey, Mr Dreamer wake up to the harsh reality. She hasn\'t even said YES to your proposal and you have even pictured a complete future with her. Aren\'t you counting your egg before they are hatched?" Jasmine said snapping a finger at his face.

"Have you ever thought about the possibility of her saying no to you? You might think that no lady in this world will be able to reject you since you have the looks, money, height, body and everything that will drive a lady insane but the harsh reality is that not every lady likes a perfect man like you," Jasmine said sounding more serious than she has ever been.

"I am not saying this to ruin your mood but to prepare your mind for the worst," Jasmine concluded firmly.

"Just a correction Jasmine, I am not Mr Perfect and I have never wanted to be one," Jackson corrected in a calm tone.

"I have also thought about the possibility of her rejecting my love. I know it hurts like hell to be rejected by the one you love so dearly. It might take me days or months to recover from the pain of rejection but I won\'t give up just because she rejected me once. Even though she rejects me thrice, I will still keep on trying since my heart is settled on her in this lifetime. She might think that she is stubborn but by then she will know that I am more stubborn than her. Even though I have to stalk her, then I will gladly do it until she loves me back," Jackson said with so much determination and zeal.
