Chapter 1
Another boring day in hell as far as Reid Garwin was concerned. Science had never been his thing, neither had math, or come to think of it, nothing that involved school could be considered his thing. But thank God it was the last class before the weekend. So, trying not to yawn he continued the small circular doodles on the paper that had the lab assignment, thinking about his plans for the two days he would have off from this hell. He shifted on the hard lab bench and clenched his jaw, scrunching his eyes up in an attempt to hold back a yawn, but failed miserably. He let his head fall down on the lab table with a quiet thump, and modeled his "brother's" position.
Arms folded under his head, face first in the Chemistry book that was open, back slouched and his whole body relaxed, Pogue Parry was sound asleep. Reid snorted to himself, so much for Harvard, he thought with a smirk and rolled his eyes, kicking his brother's chair, only getting a grumbled "fuck off" in reply for his efforts. He chuckled darkly, that was real polite. Rolling his eyes again he focused on the paper he had just been covering with little swirls and circles. Something about finding the heat of fusion for water and then finding the percent error. Reid snorted mentally, what ever the hell that meant.
A commotion from the front of the room brought his head up from the paper. He raised a single eyebrow at the sight before him. Standing at the front of the lab was a tiny frail looking brunette. She had her back to the rest of the class and was conversing with the lab director Mr. Benton. She stood with her school bag clasped in front of her, almost as if she was shy, but the erect way she held herself, her shoulders back and head held up high, told Reid a different story. She turned slightly so that Reid could see the side of her face. Reid sat up and stared openly.
Must be the new girl, he thought, once again kicking his brother's seat, rolling his eyes at the sleepy retort of "go to hell". Leaning over he punched Pogue hard on the shoulder. The long haired teen came awake with a muffled curse. He sat up and stretched his arms above his head, shooting a glare at his long time friend and brother. "What the hell, man?" he grumbled.
Reid nodded to the front of the room with a look that said it all. Pogue's eyes drifted that way and his eyebrows hit his hair line and he let out a low whistle.
The tiny girl had turned to face the class. She had swept her long brown hair back into a loose messy bun on the top of her head, exposing a pale cherub face with full pouty lips and eyes so green Reid was not so sure they could be real. She was smiling at something that Mr. Benton was saying, her lips turned up, her eyes sparkled under the florescent lighting. Benton handed her a lab paper and pointed in Reid and Pogue's direction. Green eyes met blue and the smile on the girl's face became slightly pained.
Reid and Pogue exchanged looks and sat up straight as the girl headed in their direction, her face a mask of determination. With in moments she reached their table and sat her books down next to Reid. Green eyes shifted from Reid to Pogue back to Reid.
With a small sigh that sounded like one of defeat, she pulled a stool up to the table and sat down. "well…" she started softly, a lot of weight behind that single word.
Pogue leaned across the table and held out his hand, "Pogue Parry, it's lovely to have a beautiful addition to our table." He greeted her with a small wink.
Reid rolled his eyes at his brother and was preparing some smart ass retort when the girl spoke, her voice sending a tingle down Reid's spine.
"Clarissa McClarin, Mr. Parry, a pleasure." She replied, shaking Pogue's proffered hand. Her voice was soft and sweet, with a hint of a teasing tone underneath her seriousness. The gentle lilting of a foreign accent made all the words seem to have a sexual tension to them, at least that's what Reid's mind told him.
Pogue waved a hand in the air dismissively, "Please, name's Pogue, Mr. Parry is my father." He gave her a wink and she laughed. The sound once more sending a tingle down Reid's spine.
Pogue put a heavy hand on Reid's shoulder, "This bundle of sourness is…"
"Reid, Reid Garwin." Reid interrupted his brother shooting him a small frown, before turning back to the brunette vision before him. She held out a hand, "Clarissa McClarin." She smirked, "Nice to meet you, Mr. Garwin."
Reid returned her smirk and took her hand, but instead of shaking it like a normal person he lifted it to his lips and placed a gentle kiss on her knuckles like some gallant knight of old. Pogue rolled his eyes, and scoffed, but neither seemed to notice, Clarissa was blushing prettily and Reid was smirking.
"Charmed." Reid murmured against her skin, before releasing her hand.
Before Clarissa had a change to reply the shrill sound of the dismissal bell echoed through the lab, soon followed by the scrapping of chairs and the voices of students excited about the weekend.
Clarissa stood and gathered her books, and before she knew it she was swept into a sea of people leaving the lab. The boys disappeared from view as she was pushed along.
"Clare! Clare! Over here!" A voice called from behind her, and Clarissa looked all around, only seeing a sea of unfamiliar heads and faces. She closed her eyes briefly, fighting back the terror that threatened to engulf her, and swallowed hard. A hand grabbed her arm, and she jumped and gasped.
"Hey, girl!" the happy voice of Lilly James said from beside her.
"Lilly!" Clarissa gasped a smile of relief on her face, "You frightened me."
Lilly laughed tossing her long blonde hair back from her blue eyes, "Sorry, thought you saw me coming."
Clarissa shook her head with a tiny nervous laugh, "No, I can't see anything in this bloody hallway." She murmured to her roommate. Lilly simply laughed, and nodded.
"Hey, Kate, Sarah." Lilly greeted the two other girls as they made their way to them.
"Hey-ya, Clare, Lil. We goin' to Nicky's tonight?" Kate asked, already undoing her school tie and unbuttoning her white top.
"I am." Lil replied, nodding as the four girls headed across the school lawn towards the dorms.
"Nicky's?" Clarissa asked her new found friends.
Kate and Sarah gave a little giggle. "Yeah, it's only the best place to hang in this town." Kate told her, with a wink.
"With any luck the guys'll be there and you can meet 'em." Sarah added with a smile.
Clarissa nodded understandingly, and said her goodbyes to the other girls as Lilly and she headed a little further down the hall to their own dorm.
Stretched out on her bed, lying on her back, hands laced behind her head she stared up at the ceiling. A small smile played on her lips as she thought about the blonde haired blue eyes gent she had met. As she conjured up an image of him in her head heat coiled at the base of her stomach and she sighed.
What was with her? By everything that she had heard from Lilly and the other (and had seen with her own eyes today in Chemistry) Reid Garwin was a lazy son of a bitch who was a player and cared for no one but himself. Quite a long ways away from her type, that's for sure.
Her thoughts were dragged away from Reid Garwin as he roommate emerged from the bathroom. Lilly's blonde hair was half up half down spilling down her back and over her shoulders in little ringlets. Blue eyes were circled in a thin line of eye liner, lashed coated in mascara. A light green top was cut low and showed off more cleavage then Clarissa thought that it should, an uber tiny miniskirt barely covered her bottom with heels that were so tall that she wasn't sure how Lilly planed to walk in them.
"How'd I look?" Lilly asked striking a pose.
Clarissa laughed. "You look great." She said, hopping off her bed and slipping her own simple ballet flats on. She straightened her own top, low cut pale pink with a white cami underneath. She grabbed her long coat from the bed and pulled it on, ignoring the disapproving sounds from Lilly. She'd been through the lecture when she'd put on a pair of jeans instead of a skirt.
"You ready?" Lilly asked, casting a critical eye over her roommate. The tiny brunette had her hair up in a messy bun on top of her head; her green eyes were ringed with eyeliner. Lilly gave a nod of approval at Clarissa's reply in the affirmative and grabbed her arm and dragged her from the room.
Outside they met Sarah and Kate. The two girls were dressed to the nines. Sarah in a purple low cut sweater and a dark longer skirt, her hair twisted up on her head, Kate in an orange top and a skirt just as short if not shorter than Lilly's. The three girls all giggled and headed out to the bar.
Reid Garwin lay on his back staring up at the ceiling. He had shed his school uniform the moment he entered the dorm he shared with the youngest of his brothers, Tyler. There was nothing more than he loved than the weekend. But this weekend he was faced with a problem, the mysterious Clarissa McClarin. Just the thought of her name sent a tingle of desire down his spine and straight to his groin. He closed his eyes and pictured her long brown hair falling around her cherub face, her eerie green eyes. He moaned softly and shifted slightly, his baggy jeans suddenly feeling too tight. His heart pounded in his chest as he saw the pale face flushed the plump lips parted in a sigh. In his head he could hear the softly accented voice whispering his name. Feel the long slender fingers tracing a path down his chest to his aching cock.
A pillow smacked him in face. He was jerked from his thoughts with a fetid curse. "What the hell, Baby-Boy?" he snarled at the laughing teen, sitting up on the bed, no longer hard.
"Man, whoever you were dreaming of…damn." Tyler trailed off with a laugh shaking his head at his older brother.
Reid rolled his eyes and simply flipped him off. Tyler laughed again.
"You ready to head out, man?" Tyler asked, tossing the pillow back to his own bed.
Reid flopped back onto his covers, "I'll catch up with ya later." He smirked at the younger teen, "I would like to continue my dream."
Tyler blushed slightly but chose not to comment, "All right, well don't take too long, man, Dick-Face needs to have his ass kicked in pool." He told his slightly older brother, "See ya later." Tyler slipped from the dorm room closing the door behind him quietly.
Reid rolled his eyes. Baby-Boy was so easy to embarrass. With a dark chuckle, he settled back on his bed, and closed his eyes once more. The cherub face with green glowing eyes floated in front of his vision again, and he stirred. With a gentle moan he ran his hands up under his shirt, tracing down his chest, imagining the soft slender fingers in place of his own larger calloused hands. His breathing quickened as he ran his hands over his nipples tweaking them moaning, imagining it was Clarissa's hands on him.
His cock now hard and pulsing, his hand traveled down his stomach and to his belt. In his mind it was Clarissa who was undoing his belt buckle, unsnapping the button, and teasingly pulling down the zipper. Lifting his hips he pulled his jeans and boxers down to his knees and traced small circled across his stomach and down until he cupped his cock in his hand. He moaned low and loud as he touched himself.
Moaning softly, he slid his hand up to the head of his cock and circled it with his thumb. He could almost feel Clarissa's hot breath on him as he moved his hand up and down, his other hand coming up to rolling his nipples between his fingers. He arched into the touch, and the face floating before him smirked. His breath quickened, as did his hand. Sweat broke out on his brow and he gave a low moan as heat coiled in the pit of his stomach.
His hand traveled from his nipples down his stomach. The muscles contracted and he moaned again, his hips thrusting up into his other hand. In his mind the soft voice gave a moan whispering in that exotic accent, "Come for me, Reid Garwin." With a shout Reid came, harder then he could remember coming in a while. Stars sparked behind his eyes and his breathing hitched in this throat.
Reid lay on his back panting, the pleasure still spiking through his veins. He opened his eyes and smirked down at himself. Eyes flashed black and his hand and stomach were clean. Rolling onto his side, he pulled his boxers and jeans back up and slipped out of bed. Buckling his belt he headed for the door, grabbing his keys from his desk.
As he passed the open bathroom door he caught sight of his reflection. His face was flushed, his eyes were bright and he smirked. He had that recently fucked look. Grabbing his beanie from his desk be pulled it over his head and headed out the door.
Clarissa was completely blown away by what she saw at Nicky's. All around were teens and adults, some dressed to the nines other simply in jeans and baggy hoodies. She smiled as Lilly lead her into the bar and the pulsing music hit her. When they had told her a bar, she had immediately pictured a pub like the one that had been located just down the road from her former home in London. This was completely different.
Lilly lead her over to a table located towards the back of the bar, two incredibly hot guys were seated laughing and joking with a guy that she recognized as Pogue Parry from earlier that day.
"Hey, boys." Lilly greeted, smirking as both brunettes turned to look at her.
"Hey-ya, Lil." One greeted. He was tall and dark, his chocolate brown eyes were warm and he was certainly built. He smiled up at Clarissa. "And who's this?" he smiled.
"Clarissa McClarin." She introduced herself with a little wave.
"Clare, this is Caleb Danvers." Lilly pointed to the guy who had spoken. He smiled at her briefly before turning back to Sarah who had placed herself in his lap. "Sarah and Caleb are together." Lilly explained with a smirk, before she pointed to the other brunette, "That's Tyler Simms."
Tyler gave Clarissa a small wave a tiny smile. His hair was cut short and his eyes were blue, but as blue as…. Clarissa gave herself a small shake, and returned Tyler's tiny wave.
"And that's…"
"Hullo, Mr. Parry." Clarissa greeted Pogue ignoring Lilly's look.
"Ms. McClarin." He replied with a chuckle, "Ladies, join us." He gestured to the empty seats before him, and they all took a seat.
The next hour was spent in idle conversation. Clarissa was laughing at something Tyler had said when a cold feeling washed over her. She turned towards the door , thinking that that could be the source of the cold. Her eyes widened as she saw who came in.
Reid Garwin. His icy blue eyes scanned the crowd, a smirk firmly in place. His platinum blonde hair was half hidden by the black stocking cap he had on his head. Baggy jeans and a large grey sweat shirt covered a body she was almost positive was amazing. Hands were covered in cut off black gloves, and fingers rolled an unlit cigarette idly.
He came up to the table, "How's the party boys?" he asked arrogantly, throwing himself down into a chair next to Clarissa.
"Good 'till you got here." Tyler snarked with a laugh, and the others laughed as well.
Reid flipped him off eyes scanning the room. Clarissa was about the ask him if he was looking for ass or what, when Kate suddenly screamed and hopped down from Pogue's lap, "C'mon! We gotta dance!" she grabbed Pogue's hand and dragged him to the dance floor. Sarah grabbed Caleb and followed her best friend's lead, pulling her boyfriend to the floor.
"C'mon, Clare!" Lilly grabbed both Tyler and Clarissa and pulled them to the dance floor. She started dancing, the beat thrumming through her. "C'mon, guys, dance!" she yelled above the music.
Clarissa shook her head, "I don't really dance."
"How can you not dance to this!" Lilly demanded, turning to grab Tyler, he placed his hands on her hips letting her grind into him.
Clarissa laughed, and attempted to dance a little as the chorus came on.
Too high, can't come down
Losin' my head spinnin' round and round,
Do you feel me now?
She spun around letting lose as the music and the beat thrummed through her veins. With her eyes closed she tossed her head back, pulling her hair down from its bun, letting it fall around her shoulders and fly around her as she moved.
A strong arm wrapped around her waist, and she gasped eyes flying open as she was pulled flush, back to front with a strong chest. She blushed slightly as she continued to move, grinding into who she thought was Tyler.
Hands moved to rest on her hips, guiding her movements. She smirked as she felt Tyler's hard-on against the small of her back. She closed her eyes again as she let lose. As the song came to an end she opened her eyes to see Lilly and Tyler still grinding together. She stopped dancing as panic sliced through her. If Tyler was there…then who the hell had she been grinding against?
Biting back an oath she pulled herself away from the strong arms and spun around only to have her heart drop. Icy blue eyes stared down at her, platinum blonde hair fell into one eye and Reid Garwin smirked down at her flushed face.
"Fuck." She swore as she pulled herself away from him eyes wide and visibly shaken. Panic coursing through her, she pushed her way towards the door, breathing hard, eyes wild. She couldn't believe it! She had just grinded up against Reid fucking Garwin and felt his hard-on…for her! Damn, and after all the warnings from her new friends.
She burst out the door, letting the cool night air calm her nerves. She leaned against the wall and groaned to herself. What was worse that knowing that Reid was turned on by her, was the way her own body reacted to Reid. She closed her eyes and took several deep breaths and tried to stop her thoughts. All she could think about was Reid, his smirk as he looked down at her, the way his body moved against her as they danced. She knew that he would be amazing in bed just by the way he had held her to him as they moved on the dance floor. She was wet just thinking about it.
"Hey, girl, you okay?" Lilly asked sticking her head out the door, holding Clarissa's coat out for her.
"Yeah, I'm alright." She replied, slipping her arms into her coat shivering as she realized how cold she was.
"Well, I'm pooped, I'm gonna head back to the dorm, wanna come?" Lilly asked, stepping outside.
"Sure, I'll come with." Clarissa said, following her roommate back to her car.
Reid smirked as he watched Clarissa flee the bar. She looked really hot when she was turned on. He made his way back to the table. Kate punched him in the arm.
"Ow! Woman, what the hell was that for?" he snapped at her.
"For being a fucking idiot!" she hissed back eyes snapping fire at him, "She's new and you have to go and be a prick." She pointed towards the door where Lilly had just headed with Clarissa's and her own coats. "Go apologize." She demanded.
"What? For what? I was just dancing with her!" he snapped back, really not in the mood for Kate and her insanity. Beside he was hard again despite his play before he came out the Nicky's.
"Just. Go!" she said, thrusting her hand back in the direction of the door.
Reid held up his hands in defeat. He knew what Kate was like when she was pissed, he had the scars to prove it. There was no way he was gonna take the chance on Kate hurting him again, after last time he hadn't been able to move properly for a month.
So he stood and made his way to the door, hands shoved deep in his pockets, head down, scanning the room from beneath his bangs. Stepping out side he didn't see anyone. He gave a shrug and headed back inside.
A tall brunette knockout came his way, "Hey big boy, you up to some tonight?"
Reid gave her a once over, and seriously considered her offer, but all he could see was the panicked look on Clarissa's face and he hated himself for it.
"No thanks, sweetheart." He blew her off, as he made his way back to the table, grabbed his own coat and was out the door before anyone could ask.
