Summary: Jasper had moved on. Maggie was just so unsure. When she sees Jasper moving on with another girl, it sparks her emotion that she denied for a long time...will she be tempted to follow the same path that Jasper reluctantly chose himself?





	Promise?

**Disclaimer: I do not any of the characters from Unnatural History… because if I did, like many other fans out there, I would've continued the series for a season two…'tis a shame…wasted potential.**

**Promise**

Chapter 1: Torture

_**I love you. **__And I don't plan on letting you go._

So he loved her, yeah whatever. He had his heart shattered multiple times…by the same girl. She was the only one he thought was worth it, but after more than three tries it was time to move on, for him anyway.

Jasper stared at his computer screen, he had finished his bio report three hours ago. Right now he was just skimming through reviews for a new game. _Mass Effect 3_, yeah it was intense, the game-play was epic, the ending just needed a smidge of tweaking in his opinion.

Henry was out doing whatever Henries do, in other words observing teenagers at sporting events. His cousin had practically begged for Jasper to join him and Maggie at the match. It took a lot of improvising to come up with a sufficient excuse. Well it actually was the truth, he had to finish the lab repor,t God knows he'd procrastinate.

There were multiple reasons why he tried to weasel out of going; sports and him didn't have a fond history, the jocks hated him, he always ended up doing something embarrassing or Henry did, he would end up in another mystery with Henry (well, that's kind of fun), oh what else? That's right! Maggie.

Three's the charm, right? Wrong! This was probably his fifth or sixth try since the eighth grade. She still gave him that same lame ass excuse. Her eyes would go blank, she'd just look at him for a few moments then slowly shake her head.

"…_Sorry Jasper. I…well, I don't think this will work. It will only sever our long-lasting friendship-."_

"_Oh come on Maggie! This is just…enhancing! Upgrading! From our friendship level to…uh, dating."_

_She glared at him, "I've seen the other couples, they all end in heartbreak, one way or another. I don't want to be like that Jasper. We've been through too much to end like that. I thought-."_

_He interrupted her again, "That we would die on one of Henry's little adventures?"_

_Maggie gave him a look, "No. I thought that…oh never mind! I don't want to be on the dating level…"_

_She muttered something but he didn't catch it, he rocked on his heels, "So, what about 'friends-with-benefits'? Come on Mags, FWB?"_

_She quirked her brow before walking away, Jasper sighed in disappointment. One day he'll get a tattooed area on his deltoid, with the tally marks of how many times he had gotten rejected by Maggie. He pulled out the small note from his pocket, he had written it, in case she (finally) accepted, he'd have something "romantic" to give her. _

"_**I love you. **__And I don't plan on letting you go."_

_It let the rejection sink in, and he stuffed the note back in his pocket, with no emotion._

She could do just about anything, but when it came to this socialite sort of thing, she really fumbled. It was so frustrating. There really weren't girls like Maggie around the corner of every street.

That's why he was attracted to her, she was an individual, so unique. Jasper felt like he was probably just another guy around the corner of every street. It was depressing, he wanted her to notice him. In the romantic way, friends-with-benefits in the least. Not stuck in the friend zone. It was absolute torture for his teenage body to handle.
