My Summer Time
A/N: (Starting in the middle of season 3 in Seaside because of the events that took place, I wanted to use) ~~~~ Trailer and banner: /#!/AlliBieber511/status/152284467145347072/photo/1 Summary: Jenni was Pauly's summertime. Every summer when the whole cast headed to the Jersey Shore she couldn't help but feel the same way about him. But she had a boyfriend, Tom. No one ever seen how bad Tom treated Jenni, but Pauly did and he felt like he had to protect her. Then when Jenni finally gets enough strength to break up with Tom is it too late? Is it too late for them to be together or is it just the perfect time? This time around she will love the right guy; this time around she will give Pauly a chance.

Jenni glanced at the clock and it was one in the afternoon. That time sent a rush of emotions though her. It meant that her boyfriend Tom was going to be calling her soon. She loved him… at least that is what she told herself. He treated her so badly though, so she couldn't help but question. But he said he loved her so she took that as enough to stay with him.
The duck phone that sat on a table next to the beanbag chair started quaking. Almost making her jump because she was so caught up in her thoughts. She was anxious to answer the phone but proceeded to walk towards it anyway.
She lifted it from its base and sat. With a nervous tone she answered, "Hello."
"Hey this is Tom, can I talk to Jenni?" His voice almost making her want to hang up, unaware of what would happen next.
When they first started dating it was like any other relationship, normal. But after a while Tom became so protective of Jenni. Then if she ever did anything wrong he would get really mad at her. She tried to be good and not break the rules, but who was she kidding. She was interested in other men… one of them living in the same house as her, sleeping in a bed just a room next to hers, and being together in a house three times, to film three seasons of their hit show. She couldn't help but wonder about what would have happened if she had been single that first night out to the club, their first summer together.
But she knew she had to talk to him, "This is Jenni." She replied.
"What's up babe?" he asked seeming in a good mood, which meant he would be nice during their conversation, or she could hope. But she didn't know why she was still nervous, she didn't do anything wrong last night… had she?
"Nothing, I just don't feel good. I got really drunk last night at the club." She says and notices her throbbing head.
"Why would you do that Jenni? You need to control you drinking better." Tom says getting mad at Jenni.
"I'm sorry, I will next time." She says feeling like a little kid being scolded be her parents. She is never herself around Tom. He always brings her down and makes her feel small.
"You better or I will drive down there and get you!" Tom exclaims angrily.
"I'm sorry." She says again trying to calm her angry boyfriend down.
For a few moments there is silence between them then Jenni hears Tom's cell phone go off on the other side of the phone.
"Really Jenni?" Tom says and he sounds pissed! "I just got a text from my friend Zack and he is in Jersey for a little while. It says that at Karma last night you were grinding on some douchebag with a blowout! Isn't that the same guy you cheated on me with like two years ago? Do you forget you have a boyfriend sometimes? I swear Jenni you will always be a stupid little whore! I took you in and now you are going to cheat on me again?" Tom continues his rant making tears pour out of Jenni's brown eyes, her vision now blurry.
He hangs up the phone after he is done yelling at her. She pulls her legs up to her chest and continues sobbing. Why can't she brake up with him? Why does she let him walk all over him like that? Probably because she is too scared.
In the other room Pauly is just getting up. He gets out of bed and stretches. Then he hears muffled sobs coming from somewhere in the house.
He walks out of his and Vinny's bedroom, down the hallway, to see Jenni crying.
"Are you ok?" He asked genuinely concerned for the almost always strong brunette.
When she didn't reply he walked over to the beanbag and pulled her close to him. He assumes it was Tom that made her so upset. Recently Tom has been making Jenni so broken and Pauly hated it. He wrapped his arms around her.
The gesture only made her sob harder for the fact that her broken heart still skipped a beat when he touched her. He still had caused such a reaction in her emotions even after about 2 years. Also because of how much he cared about her wellbeing and happiness, unlike Tom.
"Jenni, what happened?" He asked as he rubbed her back trying to make her feel better.
"Tom, he hates me." She managed to get out in between crying.
"Break up with him, there are so many more people that care about you and will love you." Pauly said thinking about how much he cared about Jenni, he loved her but we would never tell her.
"I don't know if I can, he would probably get mad." She said hugging him as if she needed protection from her seeming scary boyfriend.
"He can't hurt you; no one in this house would let him." He comments and starts brushing through her beautiful reddish brown hair.
The tears on falling down her face slow down.
He hated seeing her so weak all because of the jerk-off she was dating.
They are now almost lying on the bean bag chair and Jenni's tears come to an end.
She lays her head on his chest and sighs "I'm just wondering why do you care about me so much?"
"I don't know I just feel kind of protective of you." He says blushing from embarrassment. It is probably only the third or fourth time she has ever seen him blush.
"Well thank you, you can always make me feel better." She says smiling at him.
"I hate seeing what he does to you so I can only try to make you smile." He says kissing the top of her head and getting up. "I would love to stay with you Jenni, honestly. But I have to work with Mike and Deena. I'm sorry."
"Uh, it's okay." She says a little disappointed he couldn't stay with her.
Pauly takes her hand and helps her up. "We can hang out later though." He says with a smile making Jenni only smile back.
He gives her a hug and they stay there for a few moments. Just in each other's arms, where they wish they could stay forever.
"Thank you again." She says when they pull away and Pauly leaves to go get Mike and Deena up to go to work at the t-shirt shop.

Later that day everyone was getting ready to go out to karma.
Jenni was in the bathroom taking a shower. All day she had thought about what Tom had said about her. But she also thought about her and Pauly's sweet moment that came right after. She couldn't help but let her thoughts wander to him.
He was just so nice to her and she felt safe with him.
After her shower she did her hair and makeup and got dressed in a short little dress that showed a lot in all the right places and hugged her slim but curvy body.
She walked into the living room where Mike, Pauly, Ron, and Sam were sitting and waiting for the others.
Pauly looked up at her and they exchanged sweet smiles. "You look pretty Jenni" He said making her smile more.
"Thank you" She said.
When everyone was ready Mike called for the cabs and in twenty minutes two cabs were parked outside of their house and were waiting for them. Everyone piled into the cars and arrived at Karma, their favorite club, not to long after.
Jenni drank a lot, getting drunk with Nicole and Deena. She never drank as much as them but she needed to forget about her problems. So she ordered more shots and continued to get drunk until Mike said it was time to go.
The cab ride home was filled with Nicole and Deena slurring their words and giggling at each other.
Pauly was sitting in the back of the cab next to Jenni since he didn't bring a girl home tonight; he just wasn't in the mood. She rested her head on his shoulder and he put his hand on hers.
When the cabs pulled in front of the house they all filed out and walked up the stairs to get in the house. Everyone went in the kitchen to eat but Jenni snuck off to Pauly and Vinny's room. She climbed into Pauly's bed and kicked of her heals.
As soon as she got in the bed she was positive it was his when she smelled his warm cologne. She pulled the covers up and drifted to sleep.
In the kitchen Pauly finished eating and threw his paper plate away. He said goodnight to the roommates that were still up and went to his room.
It was dark but he left the lights off since he was planning on going to bed because it was late and he was tired. He took his watch and necklace off, then followed by his shirt and his pants.
He got a pair of sweatpants out of one of the dressers and put them on.
He walked over to his bed and it was when he pulled the covers back, he was surprised to see the beautiful drunk brunette sleeping there.
He slightly shook her to get her to wake up. "Hey Jenni, you should get in your bed." He said to her.
"Can I please sleep with you, I need someone?" She asked.
"Sure." He said and climbed in his bed right next to her.
She wrapped her arm around his waist and snuggled into him.
"Thank you" She said.
"You're welcome." He replied and pulled her closer to him.
Within in a while they both fell asleep with Jenni feeling safe and even though they weren't together they were both elated to be sleeping in each other's arms.
