I live down stairs from Max's Homemade Cupcakes which is basically a kitchen in an apartment. Max was a good friend and I helped make some of her famous cupcakes right in her dingy apartment. She was now living with a roommate, Caroline, who had a boyfriend, Andy, who was like my brother even though we were together for a while, but she didn't know that. It might ruin things. It's still awkward though. Wait! Wait! They're not really apart of the story so lets get on with it then. The main person I want to discuss is Jebediah. Someone I didn't think I would even meet, but who became an essential person in my life in just a few short days. He was just another customer at the shabby diner Max and Caroline worked at and our regular hang out spot, but after spending time with him, he became so much more.
I walked into Max's apartment casually as I always did. I walked pass the living room and into the kitchen.
I froze for a second, walking back into the living room. I looked at the couch finding two rustic looking boys sitting on it staring me down. I could swear both of them were excited to see me in my skinny jeans and tanktop on account of their stares and what was going in their pants.
"I see you've met my Amish men." Max voiced coming out of her room.
"No not really...and Amish? Where did you meet-" I started to ask but stopped, shaking my head. "You met them at the diner, didn't you?" I asked turning away from the strangers and smiling at Max. It was Max's nature to bring home a variety of people from the diner.
"Yep, I brought them home to have a threesome. It was excellent, by the way." She said using some of her sexual humor that had now become a custom to me.
"Right?" I said sarcastically to her. She took a seat on a kitchen stool looking at me still. "But seriously what are they really doing here?"
"They're building Chestnut a barn." She explained. Chestnut was the horse that came along with her blond Barbie roommate, Caroline.
"I told you I would help you build one and I would ask my brothers to help out." I told her disappointed that she'd gotten someone else to build a home for Chestnut. I'm the kind of girl that likes to get her hands dirty.
"But these two," she pointed to the two men sitting motionless on the couch,"Are free and that's priceless...plus I get to look at their bodies all day." She whispered the last part in my ear.
"We could still use the help," I turned to see the biggest and I'm guessing stronger of the two stand up and walk towards me. He was handsome and muscles bulged all over his body, even noticeable through his loose white button up shirt, yet his exterior was still youthful and inquisitive. His hair was cut short and he looked like he was straight out of a beach movie. "I'm Jedediah by the way." He held out his hand and I took it shaking it firmly in my hand. Him just touching me sent nerves of passion, desire, and longing through my body.
"It's nice to meet you, Jeb. I hope it's okay if I call you that." I said not letting go of his hand. "You can call me whatever you want." He said leaning in a bit. His blue eyes, boy, were they beautiful, majestic even-Snap out of it! "Who's your friend?" I asked quickly, dropping his hand. "He's nobody important." He said. I couldn't help but smile. Apparently he was thinking the same thing as me: I only wanna talk to you. I walked around him sitting next to his friend who still sat on the couch. He hadn't moved an inch. He had his black cowboy hat on his lap. I'm guessing that was to cover the going-ons in his pants. He looked nervous and his right leg was bouncing quickly up and down.
He stared at me all until I sat down. As I sat down, I placed a hand on his quaking thigh. He now stared at my hand, moving in his seat uncomfortably. "What's your name?" I asked running my hand back and forth on his leg like I would do to comfort a crying child. Jebediah turned and watched enviously. I looked at his face and could see how bad he wanted his friend to be him with MY hands on HIM.
"I'm Jacob," the shy Amish man finally said.
"You don't have to act so shy. I'm Hunter by the way."I said. "We're all friendly here...well except Max."
"You can't tell him that, besides he already knows how friendly I am." She smirked and turned back to the counter to continue eating her green grapes.
Suddenly the back door swung open. "Chestnut, stay warm." Caroline called as she shut the door. "Hey Tee. It looks like your comfortable with JJ." Having fun with her nicknames, as she always did.
I was confused by her statement but soon realized Jebediah sitting on my right, fairly close, actually almost on me as I touched Jacob's leg. "When did you-?" I said voicing my thoughts and wondering how I missed his movement. I shook my head and stood up leaving the men to sit and made my way back to the kitchen returning Caroline's greeting as I walked pass her. I began to pull everything out for the cupcakes still listening to the conversation.
"So when will you two get started with the barn?" Caroline asked, as usual she was always on top of things.
"Tomorrow. Hunter, you can still help if you want." Jebediah said moving over to the counter separating the living room and kitchen. He leaned on it using his arms for support so that now his face was a minimal distance from my own.
"I don't want to get in the way." I said.
"You won't be in the way. I'll teach you everything you need to know." His eyebrows raising slightly.
"Okay, well then I'd love to." I turned to the sink hiding my zealous smile.
"You little charmer you," I heard Max say behind me. "Getting girls to say yes to your every wish." I smiled at her comment and continued to complete what I was doing.
Max helped me with the cupcakes while Caroline explained to the boys what she wanted for Chestnut's barn. Jebediah stole glances towards me as he listened. I returned his award winning smile each time he flashed it toward me.
"You like Jebediah?" Max asked.
"I dont even know him."I said pushing off her accusation. I smiled nonetheless. "He's charming but I don't see anything happening."
"Right?" she repeated my earlier sarcastic statement, smiling as if she knew a secret everyone else was blinded to. "Well even if you don't like him, can he sleep over your place tonight?"
"Um no! I don't know him and I'm not you. I can't just take random people into my home." I said. Although I wouldn't mind him of all people.
"Come on please. I don't have enough space here plus you have more than enough room. I would let him sleep in my bed but I'm not in the mood."she said.
"Absolutely not."I said still not budging.
"Okay I didn't want to have to do this but if you don't help me out, I'll tell Caroline how you really know Andy and what happened between you two." Max said. She was referring to Andy and I dating for a short period of time and Caroline being oblivious to this.
"I don't care, tell her. We're not together anymore anyway." I bluffed. I didn't want Caroline finding out. She was always so over dramatic.
"Oh you don't care," she placed the icing on the counter, smiling, and walked into the living room interrupting Caroline in her mid-instructional mode.
"Caroline I have to tell you something." Max said preparing to spill everything to her. I ran after her. "Hunter and-"
"Jebediah are having a slumber party! Yay!" I cut in saving myself. Caroline and Jacob stared at me with a look of confusion while Jebediah and Max smiled mischievously. Something told me Jebediah was smiling for a completely different reason from Max's.
"That's good for you two. I just need to finish telling them about the barn before you can have your sleepover." Caroline said snapping out of her confusion and instead raising her eyebrows in approval, probably thinking the same as Jebediah.
"Alright," I said smiling and pulling Max back into the kitchen.
She laughed on the way to the kitchen and continued until we were done icing cupcakes. "Thanks a lot,"I said when she was finished. "I warned you."she said without laughing but still smiling away.
"I'm going home."I said walking out of the kitchen leaving her to herself. "Come on gorgeous." I said to Jebediah who was still sitting on the sofa now talking softly to Jacob.
"You're not too bad yourself,"he said getting a little too close for comfort once again. I pushed him back by his chest with my right hand. "A little close there,"I said. "Goodbye everyone." I waved past him as I scurried out the door. He followed behind me as I led the way down the stairs, the hall, and to my door. "Welcome to my apartment,"I said opening the door.
