Disclaimer: - the mediator and all of the characters do NOT belong to me. They belong to Meg Cabot. My inspiration has come from the other fanfics and the last book in the series of the mediator (Heaven Sent). Sorry if this isn't good. It is my first time writing something like this.

P.S. Just so you know, Jesse is the same age as Suze (18) in this.

P.P.S. lots of romance in some chapters! Just warning you all!

_CHAPTER_1_

Jesse smiled down at me happily as we danced. "¡Querida, are you hungry?" Jesse asked me as I eyed up some of the cookies on the table behind Jesse's broad, muscular shoulder. As usual, he had read my mind.

"Yes, I am." I replied; just as my stomach grumbled ominously. Jesse laughed, then took hold of my hand and led me over to the cookie table. I sighed with contentment as I stared at the many cookies layed out on the table before me. Then I grabbed a paper plate and stacked a few cookies onto it before picking up another cookie and shoved it into Jesse's mouth. He looked so comical with a cookie shoved into his mouth! Then, before I could hide or duck, Jesse got a cookie off my plate, broke some of it off and put it into my mouth. I tried really hard not to laugh because it wouldn't look very good if I laughed and sprayed cookie crumbs everywhere. Particularly over my date!

After both me and Jesse had finished feeding each other cookies, Jesse took hold of my hand again and this time, led me over by the Mission ground's fountain. I followed him because I would follow Jesse anywhere. Even through hell if he ever went there. I stared into Jesse's deep loving eyes as he looked into mine. The space between mine and Jesse's faces lessened quickly, and, at the same rate, the love and passion between us grew until we were making out on one of the benches. The kisses were full of love and passion. His hands were up my dress and my hands were under his shirt. It felt amazing to finally feel his strong chest under my hands again after the hardship we both went through for each other that happened after we made out last time.

With my mediator senses, I could feel someone glaring at me (not that it took mediator senses to feel this particular horrible glare). I opened my eyes slightly to see no other than Kelly Prescott standing with her mouth gaping wide open, staring at me and Jesse. Just a few moments after opening my eyes, Paul wandered over all relaxed with two drinks. One for Kelly I assumed. He handed Kelly one of the two glasses filled with a tropical punch and then casually closed her mouth whilst telling her not to stare. Then he pulled her away by her wrist. Kelly seemed reluctant to go. I felt kind of glad that Paul did that. I made a mental note to thank Paul at some point for that.

After a Kelly had gone, I shut my eyes again and I remember thinking the Winter Formal would be the PERFECT place to make out. And here I was, with Jesse, my true love at the Winter Formal with our tongues entwined and our hands feeling each other. I nibbled gently on Jesse's bottom lip because I know he loves it when I do that. He moaned softly and we embraced in an even more passionate kiss. I couldn't be happier and I felt like my spirit couldn't be dampened until...

Sister Ernestine, who was walking with Father Dominic at the time, saw me and Jesse passionately making out on one of the school benches. Thankfully, Father Dom decided to tell her to leave us alone as me and Jesse had been through tough times and it was the Winter Formal after all. So we only got a disapproving glare from Sister Ernestine as she walked off with Father Dominic. I hope she doesn't ask him about our 'tough times' because what would he tell her? When they had gone, my lust for Jesse was too overpowering and I found myself straddling Jesse as he lay pressed against the bench. Our skin was pressed against each other's and the passion in our kisses was almost too overwhelming for me to stand. That was when CeeCee walked past with Adam. His arm around her waist. They both gasped at me and Jesse making out so passionately in shock.

"I wondered how long it would take before you did that, Suze." CeeCee laughed playfully.

I blushed and climbed off Jesse and he sat up slowly and put his arm around my waist lovingly.

"I really enjoyed that." Jesse laughed softly in my ear. "Hurry up and do it again!" He whispered childishly in my ear. Then he nibbled it causing me to blush even harder than I already was because I was trying not to moan with pleasure. CeeCee saw Jesse nibbling my ear and my guilty blush so she pulled Adam away from us, saying she wanted to dance. Then she winked at me and smiled.

"I know a better place for us to do this…" Jesse winked, as he kissed me softly on my swollen lips. My knees went wobbly like they usually do when he kisses me like that.

"And just where would that be?" I questioned him as I sat up and folded my arms across my chest, trying to look serious, but I was failing miserably because a huge smile broke out across my face and I moaned with pleasure because Jesse had also sat up and was nibbling my ear again.

"Follow me and you will find out." Jesse murmured cheekily as he got to his feet, offering one of his strong and tanned hands. I took it without hesitating. He led me back to his- I mean Father Dom's- car. He opened the passenger door and I slid in smiling to myself. I had no idea where he was taking me, but I didn't care because I trusted Jesse and I knew he would protect me from harm.

I recognised one of the apartment towers in the centre of Carmel in front of us as Jesse pulled into the residents' only car park. He parked swiftly into one of the two with a sign saying 'apartment 1a' I felt confused at first, then I remembered Father Dom had got Jesse his own apartment because he couldn't live at the rectory. A faint blush flew across my face as I realised why he had bought me here. I quickly texted CeeCee to tell her where I was as Jesse got out and walked around to open the door for me. She texted me back saying I should be feeling really lucky to have a private place to go when I am with Jesse. Jesse and I walked over to the tower and he held the door open for me. He then led me to the front door of his apartment and he opened the door and led me in.

The apartment was a simple lay out. I entered into a cosy entrance hall with a coat stand and some other bits and bobs of Jesse's. To the right was a fairly large bathroom. Straight ahead was a large lounge and off to the left of the lounge was a nice sized kitchen and to the right of the lounge were two bedrooms. Wait a minute… two bedrooms?

"Jesse, why do you have two bedrooms in your apartment?" I asked curiously.

"Just in case your mum decides to let you stay round overnight." He replied slyly. "Also, your parents are more likely to let you stay overnight if they know you should be sleeping in a separate bedroom to me" he added. "I used the same excuse on Father Dom actually." He told me, winking. "I know he would sincerely disapprove of you and me sharing a bedroom even for a night."

"Jesse," I sighed. "Do I really have to wait until we are married before we can do it?" I asked a little frustrated.

"Do you have to wait? Susannah! You know I want to, it just wouldn't feel right." He said slowly "Your parents would probably hate me if we did!"

This is why I love Jesse so much. I thought. Because he thinks about the people who would be affected by his actions.
