Emma Nelson was 15 years old and had long blonde hair with bangs across her forehead. Her body was graciously sun tanned and she was taller for her age but perfect height for the boys in her grade that were just now growing miraculously.
She was passionate, a little stubborn, but caring and sweet. She was also good in school, which was a big thing for someone who lived her kind of life but her older brother was always the reason for that. No matter the shit hole they lived in, Jay watched over her like a hawk, even if the two fought a lot, he did all he could for her.
She and Jay lived on their own now. They never use to. They use to have a mom, a dad, and even a pet dog. Their family was never normal though. Emma's and Jay's father was a Biker, and not one of the 'I do it for fun' types, but the type who ran drugs through town and out of the city. Their mom was his 'old lady', who was always on his side whenever he did something wrong, like abandon them whenever he pleased to. He'd always come back though, looking for dinner to be made for him, and he'd ask how his kids' day went until the day Jay could no longer take it when he turned 16.
Jay was always striving for his fathers approval. His Dad would always bring his cool 'biker gang' friends over. But the more Jay grew up, and the more trouble he got in to 'impress' his Dad, he realized it wasn't worth it. He'd get detention in school, juvie for a few months, and a bad town reputation just so he could get a pat on the back by his never-there father?
So what turned to respect, turned to hate. Every time his father came home, the two would get in such fights, that fists would be thrown around. Especially when mom died from cancer. Emma's father always treated her like Daddy's girl though, and some-how, through it all, she stayed innocent.
Emma blew the bangs across her forehead out of her eyes as she tried to focus on studying, lying on her stomach on her bed and wearing hip hugging jeans with a strapless white shirt.
Jay owned their old family house now, since Emma's father had been sent to jail almost a year ago for nearly killing a man.
Their house wasn't in a specifically nice neighborhood, but it had a gorgeous open porch with a railing around it. The house was semi- little, but it fit more than 10 people in it almost regularly. There was definitely needs of improvements but Jay did what he could. Their drive way was plain cement, that led to their back door and garage that Jay was always in. Something Jay hated to admit, but he and his Dad were alike for the love of cars they both had.
Jay never stopped street racing when he began doing it when he was 16. His dad would take him and Jay fell into it. Jay always felt like street racing was different from being a biker, it was more..'free'. But being the 'King' of the streets, costed a little money. How did Jay get his money? Well. .winning races..and if he had to steal from other car companies for hook ups then so be it. He even had his own little heist gang..
Lucas Vaughn- A biker, sometimes mustang driver. He loved to go on heists, and he was Jay's go to for connections around town. He was big on partying, and he was big on the ladies.
Jane-Lucas' sister. A bad ass girl, who could drive a car unlike any other girl anyones ever known. She was respected, likeable and witty too. Both of them had dark eyes, hair and were twins.
Alex Nunez- Jay's also tough, take no shit, girl friend. She could put together any car with her own hands, which really caught Jay's interest. But as close as they were, Jay was sometimes unfaithful. She was his most serious girlfriend so far though of two years.
Sean Cameron- He was Mr Mechanic and always found in the garage or out on the streets, or with some unknown girl but always getting back together with his on and off again girl friend, Ellie. He was talented though, and more passionate about engines than anyone Emma's ever known. He was buff, a bit shorter than Jay, and a much more likable 'bad boy' than Jay too. Sean was more misunderstood. Jay was just a jerk for fun.
Ellie Nash- She wasn't REALLY on Jay's team, but just rather Sean's biggest fan. Ellie was emotional, bitchy at times, but such a sucker like most girls for Sean Camerons charm. She acted tough, but she wasn't, and she didn't like the street racing, but she did like Sean. Shes usually seen a lot wearing leather jackets, jean skirts and she had vibrant red hair.
Anyway, as much as Sean liked cars, he drove his own motorcycle and had his own 'biker' past and family connections that he's tried to break free from for years. His brother Tracker was in the same gang Emma's father use to be a part of and the two men actually knew another once. Like Jay, Sean was 19 and he's been around since Jay met him in highschool at age 15, in auto class.
Emma was 11 when he came through their front doors for dinner. Her father took a real shining to him, she didn't. He teased her any chance he got, finding it so odd she was a 'book worm' who lived in the 'ghetto'. He had no idea how she kept her innocence in all this. In reality, he was really just impressed and somewhat protective...wanting her to keep that innocence she had. But the more she grew up, the harder it was to keep. It infuriated him sometimes as she was like a little sister to him and she didn't deserve for her life to be in shambles. She worked hard on her grades, and oddly enough, kept a good reputation at school to keep her 'popular' and out of gossiping mouths.
That was until this year when Emma turned 15, and a rumor had went around school since she begun dating Peter Stone that she went all the way with him last night. She hadn't. She was a complete virgin, and COMPLETELY upset that her rep was going to hell..
She could barely study, scoffing and closing her binder to just give up. Most people knew not to fuck with her since she was Jay Hogarts sister, but some people at school who were too young or too stupid, didn't know who he was. Yet.
((***))))
"Looking for something?" Asked Spinner.
Emma walked inside the garage where all the boys were hanging out.
"Just Jay..." sighs Emma, crossing her arms and leaning on the open garage door. Her hip stuck out a little, showing off her blossoming curves. She stood out a lot when around these rough exterior guys. She almost had a glowing aura about her, she was so clean, pretty, and pure. They were... well, bad boys, mechanics, delinquents if you will.
Spinner nodded as he stood beside Lucas and Sean, who had their heads stuck under a car hood, working on the car. They hadn't even looked up since she entered. Spinner held a beer bottle and just tapped it boredly, since he wasn't the 'mechanic' type but rather just a friend of theirs. He worked at The Dot, a diner up the street, and the gang always went there for food. Spinner liked to drive but that was about it.
Spinner brought his beer bottle to his lips and added, "He's not here. Him and Alex went to pick up some tools at the shop."
The shop was where he and Sean worked part time for some Italian loser mafia-looking guy named Tony. But it was good money on the side, safer than street races or heists that Jay did now and then.
Jay was trying to be good right now though, since officer Snake Simpson, trailed him a lot. Snake was also a rival of their Fathers, and Jay was just as slippery as his Dad was, always so careful of his crimes. Snake also knew Jay was probably smarter, and less dangerous than his father but Snake couldn't help but be on his ass. In a wierd way, he was trying to look out for him. Their father was a real asshole; he was sure they knew and didn't deserve it.
Meanwhile, Emma just nodded and tucked her hair behind her ears. "Fine, I'll wait."
Sean now glanced up, to double take when his eyes fell on Emma. "Why are you in here?" His eyes were icy, yet, beautiful..
Emma felt offended. Plus, didn't he just hear her talking?! God, it's like he never even noticed her anymore. She didn't get it! He went from constantly teasing her and not minding her in the garage when she was younger, to always hating her around now. What happened?
She rolled her eyes right in front of him, "This is my garage."
Spinner laughed. Lucas looked up from his work, and also chuckled. Sean held his icy look on her, and she tried to stand there holding her ground. But Sean was so intimidating with his glares, and big arms. He also wore a black bandana tied around his head and wore a white wife-beater, and jeans.
Emma sighed, "I'm waiting for Jay."
"Do it inside." He stated, turning to grab the airbrush from Lucas and bent down to the front of the car before he began to go to work. "We're painting, there's going to be fumes and shit."
Emma bit the end of her tongue, glancing from Sean to Lucas and Spinner who shifted awkwardly and glanced back at her to then Sean. Emma glared once more at him before turned and marched back inside.
Sean sighed, going back to work and the airbrush gave a wind blowing noise as he worked. He gazed back where Emma once stood with an unreadable look, to then scoff and focus harder on the car.
"Dude," Spinner spoke up as Sean sprayed. "Is what I hear true? Are you dating Nash again?"
Lucas laughed and grabbed a cold beer from the fridge next to the counter. "Again?" he shook his head. "This girl has to be good in bed or somethin' the way you drop her and pick her back up again like a library book."
Sean turned off the airbrush, turning to grab a beer from Lucas. "Can we not talk about it?"
"Aw, what a gentleman." teased Spinner.
Sean rolled his eyes. "yes, she's good in bed, but that's not why I go back. She's the only girl who-"
"Jesus," taunted another voice. Alex was walking up the driveway with Jay, carrying bags. "If you say 'She's the only girl you've ever loved', I might vomit right here...on your new paint job." she insists, as she glances down at his work.
Jay chuckled and rested a box on the counter before he took his hat off, running his fingers through his hair. He took a deep breath, having to carry that heavy box from Tony's shop, all the way to here. His car was busy being painted orange right now by Sean and MY it was looking glorious.
"I was going to say she's the only girl who nags me for what I do." Sean said, raising an eyebrow. "So that must mean she cares..which is good right? Which is more than I can say about the other girls at the ravine or anywhere else."
He grabbed the airbrush to start working again as Jay snickered, "Ellie's a nut job. I think I even prefer Amy."
Amy Fletcher was the sister of a rival they had who was part of another street gang. She liked to fool around with Sean since he always won, and was earth shattering sexy, and to piss off her brother too. Sean was just happy with the sex, even though she was pretty crazy and liked to create drama. Why did he always attract the crazy girls?
"She's hot though." Lucas insisted. They all gave him looks. But lets face it, any girl was Lucas' type. He didn't have a type. He shrugged though, "What? She is."
"Alright. Lets do a barbecue before I lose my appetite." taunted Spinner.
(((******))))
"Come on, I'm starving!" shouted Spinner at the table in the back yard. Jay was flipping hot dogs and burgers while Lucas beside him sent Spinner the middle finger.
Sean chuckled next to Alex and then heard her snicker softly, "Shit. Who is that?"
Sean turned his head, and Jay did too. Coming up the driveway was Emma's long time friend Manny Santos, who had done more growing up then the rest of the girls in school. And by growing up, I mean showing off that hot new body of hers.. happily.
She had long straight brown hair, and she was Filipino, with an olive skintone. She wore, well, the sides of her thong hung up higher over her jeans, and she wore a crop shirt that went down only to cover her breasts.
"Christ." breathed Lucas.
At the BBQ, Jay snapped out of it and clenched his spatula to flip another hot dog. "She's jailbait, Vaughn."
"She's asking for it." he groaned almost painfully, as he watched Manny enter the house and go out of site.
Jay growled, "She's my sister's best friend so leave her alone."
"Fuck man, I'll try but I'm not promising."
"I don't blame you." Even Alex said to Lucas, getting a wierd look from Sean. Was she checking out a girl? Did Jay notice this at all? Was it only Sean who could see something here?
"Sean, can you go get the buns and tell the girls dinners ready?" Jay asked, an unreadable look on his face now as he didn't even look up or add another word to this Manny conversation.
Sean nodded and went inside. He knew Jay's house more than any of their friends. They've been best friends since early highschool. It was hard for them to trust people, but they felt like brothers.
Sean had just entered the house, looking around and stepped into the kitchen. He heard low whispers, and put together that Emma and Manny were in the Tv room next to the kitchen. As he rounded the corner to enter, he abruptly stopped when he heard snuffles and Manny's voice trying to do consoling.
Sean furrowed his thick shaped eyebrows, wondering why the hell Emma was crying and he found himself clenching his fists. He tried to listen to hear her mention any names of who had hurt her.
"He told everyone we did it..."
"Oh Em, he's a scumbag."
Sean's eyes widened, looking almost horrified. Did Emma mean.. she had sex with someone? Emma Nelson, Jay's sister, was having sex? With who!? When!? With who!?
Sean wanted to punch something. He went to the bread box, grabbed the buns, and charged back outside without even getting the girls.
Who was this scumbag anyways who thought it'd be okay to do that to Emma Nelson?
(((***)))
By dinner time, Spinner had gotten the girls instead, which went well for him, as him and Manny were flirting up a storm now. She liked that he was all nervous around her. Manny could easily get any boy she wanted. Spinner kept getting glares from Jay though, that he nervously tried hard to avoid.
Jay knew Manny well, even if he hid it and she didn't think he did. She felt like she was just Emma's little friend to him but Emma's known her since they were little and she practically lived here. Her father was an asshole.
"Emma." Alex spoke up after eating.
Emma blinked, not eating and glanced up at her brothers girlfriend. She liked Alex, it took a while, they were VERY different, but she liked her now.
"Where's that boyfriend of yours?" she teased, "The Rich guy?"
Jay rolled his eyes. "PoinDexter?" he didn't know they were dating now. Emma had one boyfriend before him and it was never serious. Emma wouldn't let it be. She kept everything PG... and honestly, Jay wouldn't let it go further either.
"I think we're over." Emma muttered, ripping at the bun on her plate. She couldn't believe Peter ruined her rep like he did.
Manny finally tore her eyes away from Spinner, and glanced sadly at her best friend. The boys at school looked at Emma like she was a treasured prize they wanted to win and get into bed. She was probably the only hot girl left who hadn't given it up to the next loser who asked. She was smart.
Unluckily for Manny, she had given it up just months ago, hense the new look. She liked the way it felt, the way guys made her feel. But she liked how here, Sean and Jay could treat her like a person and not like some piece of meet. Spinner though, she could see had pitched a tent just by her smiling at him. But ugh, what pleasure it'd be to get a guy like Jay's attention. There was always something about Emma's brother that Manny couldn't shake off.
Sean, who sat across the table, bit into his burger. "That happens when you give things away so easily." the venom in his voice stung her. He dropped his burger like he was no longer hungry and glared at it before picking up his drink.
Everyone was giving him or another looks. What did that mean? They looked at Emma, whose mouth hung, not believing he just said that! What the hell did he even think he knew?!
Jay saw that anger rising up into Emma's cheeks, and the way her eyes shot with fire. "Emma-" he warned.
"You know what, Sean?" she felt her blood boiling. "You're an unbelievable fucking jerk!"
Swearing for Emma didn't come easy, or often. They all stared and watched her storm off. She hid her tears well too. Even Sean's eyes widened a bit before watching her storm off and out of site into the house. Manny whistled lowly.
"way to go Cameron." Alex taunted.
"What the hell was that?" Jay hissed at Sean. That wasn't usual of him. Jay knew Sean would always be protective of Emma too and always want whats best for her...so what the hell was that?
"Nothing." Sean muttered, picking up his beer and tried to drink the guilt away.
...And the party that night just made things worse...
(((**)))
"Sean!" Ellie yelled over the music, coming into Jay's house and going toward Sean who stood at the kitchen's mini bar. He was downing Jack Daniels now.
The house was crowded, everyone having fun, yet Sean had yet to notice Emma come out of her room as he swallowed the whiskey down his throat and finally turned to his girl friend.
"I thought it was going to just be me and you tonight?" she asked, slightly annoyed.
He threw his arms out, drunkenly, as he taunted her. "Doesn't look like we're alone, does it?"
People were dancing, flirting, having a good time, and laughing.
"Hey Sean." purred another voice, and Ellie's eyes flashed madly at Amy Fletcher. Amy was in the tiniest skirt she probably had.
"Beat it, bitch." Ellie snapped, walking in front of Sean and crossed her arms as she viciously glared up at Amy who was wasted, and slightly intimidated.
"you don't scare m-me." slurred Amy.
Meanwhile, Sean scoffed, his attention not even on the girls as he eyed Emma's room some more before giving up and taking his Jack Daniels with him to her room.
Ellie gasped, wondering where the hell he was going. "Sean! What the hell!?"
(((*)))
"Just put on your best dress, and come out to the party. Forget all about Peter!" Manny insisted, throwing an outfit at Emma who sat on her bed.
"Maybe you're right." muttered Emma, getting up and grabbing the outfit. "I need to move on.." with her other hand, she grabbed the wine bottle Manny was drinking and gulped it.
She had already drank half the bottle 15 minutes later, and wearing a hot little black dress.
"There's 100 people at this party that we will never see again." Emma declared, walking to her mirror to look at herself. "Even they would make a better choice than Peter."
"Em, are you saying you're gonna hook up with someone?" Manny rose an eyebrow and giggled in disbelief.
"We'll see."
"If you say so!" exclaimed Manny, rather impressed and amused. She gasped and got up as Emma went into her bathroom, "We need more drinks. Be right back!"
Emma heard Manny, and was in the bathroom as she checked her over in the mirror. Not so bad. She looked like a fox! Jay would absolutely kill her if she walked out with his older friends out there. But geez, she looked good! Hardly looked even 15. 16 maybe.
Emma wore a mini, strapless, black dress that made her summer tan glow. Her hair was same as earlier, long, down, crashing naturally around her shoulders, with her straight across bangs. The dress also hugged her body and the breasts she did have. Maybe she wasn't Manny's size, but she was close!
She turned and just as her bedroom door opened she gasped and stopped by the foot of her bed when she looked up and saw it wasn't Manny.
Sean stood there, he must of stopped before her, and his eyes sized her up and down in almost agony.
"What are you wearing?" he asked, snapping out of it and shaking his head no, "You're not wearing that out there."
Emma's shoulders dropped. For a second, it looked like maybe even Sean liked what he was seeing. But that was probably not it, as much as that thought made her happy.
"You're not my Dad, or my brother so-" Emma went go around for him to grab her arm, "Sean!"
"I know very well neither of them would want you going out there like that."
"There are many girls out there wearing less and worse."
"You're not like them."
"What am I like then?" Emma challenged, "Who am I, Sean? Cause maybe you didn't get the memo but I'm almost 16! I'm not some kid anymore. I wear what I want, and do what I want. Stop trying to act like them, you're not part of our family!"
He looked slightly hurt. Emma even swallowed and shut her mouth, her eyes looking like she wished she could take it back. Sean was more than family to her. She didn't actually know how to explain Sean to someone else. He use to be her favorite, hell she even had a crush on him as a kid.. .a crush that she still tried to hide so she didn't look so pathetic...
"Sean." she said softly, trying not to fight with him. She hated this. What happened to them? When did they go from big bad Sean helping her bake cookies when Jay wasn't home to Sean wanting nothing to do with her?
Quite possibly when she began to turn into a woman. Sean remembered it like yesterday...
FLASHBACK.
Sean Cameron was walking up Jay's driveway when he saw the blonde he knew and loved sitting on the porch.
"Hey bookworm!" he began to grin, waiting to see her reaction to him. He'd been away for months, as bikers did now and then to just ride. He wanted to go, get the hell out of this forsaken town to only be sucked back into it. This was home. Here with her, Jay and the gang.
Emma looked up, putting down her book and squinted her eyes from the sun beaming in her face. But who wouldn't know it was him? Wearing his usual white wife-beater and jeans, and that smile with dimples grinning ear to ear.
But when she looked up, it was he who didn't recognize her. Not fully. That body of hers had grown into those long legs she had. She use to remind him of Bambi with those legs, like she didn't know how to walk or use them sometimes. Now though, they were the kind of legs a guy would want wrapped around his waist. The type of legs that made heels and a dress look exotic or a skirt, like she wore right now. Her clothes had changed from pre teen, to risky young womans clothes. A jean skirt and a white crop top that tied around the back of her neck to keep up and stopped just at her waist for this hot summer day. She'd also apparently grown a pair of- well, erm, nevermind. This was Jay's SISTER he was thinking about here and he shouldn't be staring at some 15 year olds chest. She was still younger than him.
When the hell did she grow up so fast?
"You're back." she said with a bright smile coming his way, walking down the porch steps and over to him.
That's when it hit him. It wasn't just her body that changed. And Emma was always more mature for her age so it wasn't just that either. Her face was flawless, her smile was making him beyond happy and the closer she got the more nervous he did.
"Uh ya. Where's Jay?" Sean asked, scratching the back of his neck. He had to go. This was wrong..
Emma's hazel eyes shimmered in the sunlight as she glanced to the back of the house, "In the garage of course." she giggled, looking back at him and sized him up and down. Same ol Sean, same ol biceps. Lord help me.
Sean swallowed hard and he turned, "Thanks." he muttered.
Emma paused, and blinked. She, with confusion, watched him just walk off. What the hell? Where was the 'I missed you' moment? And a hug!? She frowned deeply and shifted a little where she stood before crossing her arms and sadly looking down.
That's when Sean's attitude toward her all changed..
END OF FLASHBACK.
Sean now then looked angry, "No, you're not a kid Emma, you're just an idiot teenager which is guys out there won't care about your age, or who your brother is, they'll take advantage and this is the ONLY time I'll ever warn you if you don't listen to me."
Emma couldn't stand this anymore. She stormed out, leaving Sean there angry.
((*))
"JT!" Emma knew it was wrong, slightly even kinda gross. Jt's always been like another brother and he went to her school. He was such a goof, but a cute one. He'd do for now. He had come to the party with his friend Toby.
He stood with Spinner and Manny as Emma came over looking quite determined. She was going to prove to somebody that she was no longer a little girl.
"What's up girl-on-a-mission?" joked Jt, noticing her walking right over to him and stopped rather close up and he swallowed, looking down at her body and outfit. "H-how can I help you?"
Manny, as smart as she hid she was, broke away from Spinner. "Uh, Emma. Girl talk?" she asked, rolling her eyes and giving the blonde an 'are you crazy!?' look.
Emma whined a little when Manny dragged her away. On the way, Emma grabbed a beer off the kitchen counter.
The two stopped in the room where mostly everyone was, dancing or hanging out. Emma opened her beer as Manny watched in amusement and confusion. Emma, with a disgusted look, chugged as much beer she could.
"Emma, what the hell! What are you doing!? There's so many other guys here, if you really want one, you can get more than a boy like Jt. There are MEN here." Manny raised an eyebrow, trying to give her young friend some pointers.
"Like who, oh noble one?" she joked and giggled at her own joke.
Manny rolled her eyes and smiled. "Maybe you should go lie down Emma. I don't want you regretting anything tomorrow."
"No! I have to do this! If not because of Peter, than because of Sean" she said with such bitter tone, and a fire in her eyes. She glanced around, noticing he had come out of her room and went back to Ellie. Perfect little girl friend Ellie. Did Ellie even know what Seans hobbies were other than working on cars? Emma scoffed. Did Ellie even know Sean liked to even COOK!? ( A deep dark secret she sworn to keep or he'd kill her).
Manny smirked, playfully asking, "Biceps, motorcyclist, blue eyed Sean? The Sean you've had a crush on since little? That Sean?"
"Yes." Emma grumbled and glared, "So what?"
Manny looked back to see Emma looking right at the devil himself, who stood with his girl friend all over him.
You know what? Emma needed fun. And Manny knew how to solve that..
"Em if you wanna make someone like Sean jealous.." Manny drifted, "You need to raise the stakes."
Emma's shoulders were grabbed and body turned, as Manny pointed out someone right behind her.
"He's been staring at you since you came out of your room."
A tall guy with dark hair, who looked quite like a clone of Ed Westwick from Gossip girl, stood with a friend of his. He had a dark but mysterious vibe to him, let alone dangerous. Emma could almost see the cartoon warning signs popping around him reading 'danger, turn back'.
And Manny was right, he kept gazing back on over and now saw Emma was looking right back at him. He held his eyes on Emma, the corner of his lip lifting in a smirk, and then turned back to his friend.
"He has?" Emma then swallowed, seeing he and his friend now coming over right towards them.
"His name is James Fletcher." Manny told her quickly before they came over, then rested her hands on her hips and gave her big Manny Santos smile so that Emma's slight worried expression didn't scare the guys off.
Amy Fletchers brother who is also Sean and Jay's rival on the streets. Emma knew now who he was. Oh no! Bad idea! Emma wasn't that stupid. At parties, the guys called it civil, but on the streets, Sean had got into fist fights with this guy over and over again weather it had to do with Amy starting drama between them, or James losing to Sean in races.
It's said that James use to be the fastest racer. When Jay and Sean came in though, he always lost, and always threw a fit. Didn't make matters better when James sister began sleeping with Sean.
Wait. Sean. Sean's enemy. Hmm.
Maybe this was the key to show him just how much of a big girl she was now. James was pretty cute. But was she ready? Let alone could she handle an older guy?
"Hey there." his friend greeted, but let James and Emma keep the silent hold they had on another.
Emma blushed a bit and smiled, looking down. Manny replied back, "Hey! I'm Manny-"
"I know who you are." smirked the friend of James. He had a leather jacket on, curly brown hair, and a tall lean body. And those puppy dog eyes- ugh, cute!
Manny couldn't help but blush now, though she didn't see it coming. Wow. Someone knew of her? For some reason now, she couldn't look away.
"I'm Craig." he introduced. "And this is my friend James."
James finally spoke up, his voice slow and smooth, "And your friends name?"
Emma felt struck. He was smoldering her with his eyes and his good looks. She couldn't even more nor even speak. She mentally kicked herself before trying to stand tall, "Emma."
"Emma." he said back, eyes twinkled and raised his beer like a 'cheers'.
Emma looked down at her beer and smiled as she sipped it.
(((**))
After an hour had gone by, Emma had escaped to upstairs, feeling fuzzy and drunk. But oh my, that James Fletcher guy could really flirt up a storm. She almost forgot she was only doing it to piss off Sean.
When she went into the bathroom to breath, she came back out, feeling a little better. She squished past some people on the way down the stairs, for someone to block her path in the middle.
"Wondered where you went." said James, grinning devilishly down at her.
Emma didn't like this. The way he looked at her, undressed her with his eyes, yet she was craving the attention. Everyone looked at her as 'little' but this guy didn't. And when his hands rested on her hips, she bit her lip.
"Not far."
He raised an eyebrow, "Good." with that, he leaned down, kissing her deeply.
Emma gasped but slowly kissed back. It was more passionate than the boys she's been with in highschool. James was 18, and he knew how to kiss; maybe he was a little too eager, but still better than Peter and Chris Sharpe.
But in the kitchen, Sean looked up from over Ellie's head, noticing something and stared at it. Some guy had his hands all over Emma, and kissing her. And that guy was James fucking Fletcher.
"Sean?" Ellie tried to wave her hand in front of his face, seeing his eyes looking torn for one second, and then disbelieving.
Sean snapped his head to the right, trying to see if JAY was seeing this. Jay was too busy talking to people. Sean's mouth hung a bit, looking back up to now see Emma holding James' hand, leading him up the stairs.
No fucking way.
Before Sean even knew it, he was brutally shoving his way through the crowd, trying to make it through to run up the stairs, and grab Emma before she and James entered a bedroom or something. His skin was crawling, and he was trying to swallow down his racing heart.
Please don't fucking do this, Emma.
Not with him.
(*)
Author note: Review again please guys! And Uh oh, do you think she's going to hook up with James? Or should Sean be her first? I'm thinking of maybe still sending him to jail like I did in my other story; it was a big plot so. . yah!
