Please review and tell me what you think!
The story is mainly Claire, Tom (who I've made up) and Alex but in later chapters there will be more Nick and Tess.
Unexpected Feelings Part One
Claire had finally given into Tess and agreed to go to the city for a couple of days. Tess had been trying to convince her for weeks that it was going to be fun. So she had agreed but now she couldn't for the life of it remember why she had. But there was no way of backing out of it; they were already on their way. Tess was singing, or more like screaming along to the radio. Even though she didn't really want to go, Tess's enthusiasm was catching and she figured she would just make the best of this trip. So she screamed along with the radio as well.
When they had finally arrived at the hotel Claire let herself drop on the bed. But Tess was so exited she decided they had to go out now. "But, Tess I'm beat! I need to sleep" and she pulled the pillow over her face. "Once we're dancing you'll forget all about being tired" Tess said and dragged Claire of the bed into the bathroom. After about an hour they both looked "pretty hot" as Tess put it and they went out. The streets were filled with people looking for a good time and Claire felt totally out of place, what was she doing here? Reluctantly she followed Tess into a club, where Tess immediately pulled her onto the dance floor. To her surprise she saw a familiar face at the bar. This was her chance to get of the dance floor and she signaled to Tess where she was going. As she walked towards the man she still wasn't quite sure where she knew him from but he put his hand up as he saw her and smiled. That would mean he recognized her also, she thought. When she reached him she finally saw who it was, Tom! They had had a thing for about a week when they were young. She hadn't seen him for ages. This night might end up pretty good after all, she thought looking at the handsome man in front of her. "Claire McLeod! I never would have thought of seeing you here!" he said and lightly touched her arm. "Well, it wasn't really my choice to be here, my sister dragged me here" she said as she pointed out Tess at the dance floor. He laughed; she was still the Claire he had known all those years ago. "It must be like fifteen years ago since we last saw each other" "yeah, about" she said. They ordered some drinks and had a great time reliving old times. As he went to get some more drinks, Tess stumbled towards Claire "Maybe you were right, we do need some sleep" she said but Claire glanced in the direction of Tom and told Tess to go on ahead she wanted to stick around a little longer. Tess couldn't believe her ears until Tom came up to them and said "You must be Tess" with a gorgeous smile. She got the picture now and laughed as Claire introduced her to Tom and told her he was an old friend. She whispered to Claire "have fun" and she went back to the hotel.
When Tess woke the next morning there was no sign of Claire, she wasn't quite sure if she should be worried or happy that her sister had finally let loose. As the worry started to sink in after a while, Claire sneaked in trying not to wake Tess but when she saw she was already awake she smiled a bit guiltily. "I assume you had a good time?" Tess asked barely able to keep in her laughter. "Pretty good!" Claire said and let herself fall down on the bed saying "I need some sleep" They both laughed.
