Jeff

I listened to Roxanne playing through the speakers, but my eyes were stuck on one of the dancing lunatics in front of me – Annie. She had me completely captivated. I didn't want it, but I definitely wasn't complaining after the searing kiss in the kitchen. While not our first kiss, it was by far our best and I certainly wasn't going to let it be our last.

That kiss had been building for the past two years. We started with longer looks which escalated into subtly arm touches. Those quickly turned into crossing arms with each other and lingering hugs. At that point, it was imposable to notice that 'little Annie' was not so little when it came to certain curves that she liked to push out and press up against people, especially me.

Before I realized it, my eyes had locked with Annie's and my smile was getting a little wider. As soon as I noticed the change I quickly rearranged my grin back into its usual smirk.

I couldn't have the other's knowing about this. They would not approve, and I wasn't even sure if I approved. Just a few weeks ago I was patting Annie on the head and avoiding kissing her, but I wasn't lying when I said she was grown up. She hadn't been 'little Annie' in a very long time, but not just her curves, in every way she was a mature, beautiful woman. She worked hard in school not to fulfill her obsession to be the best, but to build a career. She was a good friend to everyone in the study group. And she survived in her terrifying apartment by herself.

She just sometimes still dressed like a school girl and wore bubble gum lip gloss, which I kind of liked…but that didn't mean anything.

Yeah…I couldn't let anyone else in the group know about this. Whatever this was. They would skewer me.

Even though I made sure I had my signature smirk, I let my eyes stay on Annie. She was a horrible dancer. She moved her arms too much and shook her ass in a way that shouldn't have been appealing, but it kind of was.

That's when I felt it, my grin come back. It's also the moment she looked directly at me. Her smile widened and she started moving her shoulders and hips a little more. At that point, I felt my grin expand even further and heard a small laugh coming from my mouth.

Who was this person that sat staring at a girl and was perfectly content? It certainly wasn't Jeff Winger.

The song ended and everyone took a second to catch their breath and laugh. Abed and Troy sat down and started eating pizza. Britta was standing in the middle of the room opening and closing her mouth repeatedly.

"My mouth is so dry. It's like a desert, but in my mouth," Britta said still very high.

"Oh dear Lord," Shirley said. "I'll get you water."

Annie walked over to the table and sat next to Troy. She grabbed a piece of pizza and started looking at the Yahtzee rules. Annie would be the only one to actually read the rules.

"It's Yahtzee not brain science, Annie," I said lightly teasing her.

"I know that Jeff," she said in a sing-song voice tilting her head slightly, "but it'll be more fun if we play it right."

"If you say so," I said grabbing a slice of pizza and taking the seat next to her.

"Don't eat all the pizza," Pierce said taking a seat.

Britta followed suit still slowly gaping her mouth. Shirley came back carrying two glasses of water. She put one in front of Britta and then placed one in front of the seat she took. Once everyone had pizza, Annie anxiously looked around.

"Would you like to play Yahtzee, Annie?" I asked just to please her.

"Yes!" She said and started to roll.

"I guess you can go first," Pierce said.

We played Yahtzee, which took forever because Pierce kept knocking his dice over when it wasn't what he wanted. Not surprising to anyone, Abed won and Annie came in second. Britta fell asleep on the table.

Through to whole game, Annie and I would make eye contact or brush legs. A few times, we even let a hand slide up a leg. Okay, she let me slide a hand up a leg. I needed to get her alone after this little house warming party that Troy and Abed were putting us all through. And by 'get her alone' I meant for talking…that's what we needed to do.

"Well I think it might be time to call it a night," I said trying to make eye contact with Annie without anyone else noticing. She looked at me, but I couldn't tell if she understood.

"Oh! But I need to clean up," Shirley said then her voice lowered and she made eye contact with Troy and Abed. "Unless you two want me to leave you alone like you did when I arrived early to cook for everyone."

"No!" Troy and Abed said at the same time both of them desperate not clean.

"Someone should probably take Britta home," Annie said.

"Jeff that sounds like a job for you," Pierce said.

"I would, but I can't," I said. This was my perfect opportunity to get rid of Pierce, Britta and Shirley. I just hope he wouldn't ask a follow-up question.

"You're just saying that because you don't want to do it," Pierce said.

"I can't believe you would think I would do something like that," I said in feign surprise and hurt. "I can't take Britta home because I don't think I would be capable of doing it without succumbing to the marijuana. You never know when she's going to wake up and just offer you a joint. And I wouldn't want to do that, right Shirley?"

"Oh! You're right," Shirley said.

"You think she might wake up and offer a joint?" Pierce asked. I could tell he was already tempted by the idea.

"Yes! And she is so pushy I just don't think I could say no, but I know you could," I said lying through my teeth.

"You're right. I should take Britta home," Pierce said. "Just help me get her to the car.

I felt a hand land on my knee and slowly start to slide up. I guess Annie had understood my earlier eye contact.

"Great!" Annie said standing up. "You two help take Britta outside then Pierce will leave with Britta and then Jeff could just walk to his car. I'll be a little later just because I need to use the restroom, but I will also be leaving just after."

She scurried off to the bathroom. Annie wasn't subtle, but at least she also felt the need to be alone.

"What's wrong with her?" Troy asked.

"Must be her woman problem," Pierce said. I rolled my eyes, Troy looked disgusted, and Abed just shook his head clearly doing math in his head.

"Well, on that note," I said standing up. "I think we should go."

I needed to follow through on the plan if I wanted to be alone with Annie. Pierce stood up and we both helped a fast asleep Britta get up from her chair. We all grabbed our stuff and headed out. I helped Britta into Pierce's car and watched them drive off. Luckily, we had passed Annie's car as we walked to Pierce's, so I knew exactly where to meet her. I walked over to Annie's car and leaned against it. I made sure my tie was straight and then put my hands in my pockets hoping I wouldn't have to wait long.

It turns out I didn't. Before long, I saw Annie quickly walking outside. She kept looking over her shoulder like she was being followed. It was kind of cute, and I felt my face falling into another grin.

I really hoped this wouldn't be a new trend.

"You waited for me," Annie said in a sweet tone.

"You weren't that subtle," I said.

"Maybe," she said giving up on the argument choosing instead to focus on getting closer. For some reason, I held off on leaning in.

She responded only with a small smile. Annie looking up at me through her eyelashes was one of the hottest things I've ever seen, and that's exactly what she was doing. I returned her smile and leaned just a little closer, but I still didn't give in to the kiss.

For some reason, I just felt like she needed to initiate the kiss. I needed to make sure she was truly okay with this. Whatever this was.

I couldn't focus on the this for long because Annie decided to reach up and kiss me. I helped her out by leaning down, but she still stood on her tip toes as she pressed herself to me. It might have been slow, but it certainly wasn't shy or soft like I expected. Turns out that wasn't Annie's style.

No, this kiss was all heat and passion. Her tongue was in my mouth before I even realized it and the distance between us disappeared. My hands went to her hips pulling her closer and her hands were in my hair. She seemed to like doing that, but for once I didn't mind someone messing up my hair.

The kiss sped up but didn't lose any of its passion. I could hear her soft moans, and it was the best sound I had ever heard.

We had things we needed to discuss and we were still just outside of the apartment. An apartment with Shirley, Troy, and Abed occupying it. I knew we should stop, but I didn't want to this time. Just a little longer I kept telling myself.

To my surprise, I felt Annie pull away.

"Jeff," she somehow moaned and whined at the same time.

"Annie," I whined right back, but I think it might have come out more as a moan.

"You know what, Jeff," she told me. "We need to get out of here. Shirley will be coming out soon."

"You're right," I said taking a step back. I took a few deep breaths inhaling the cold air trying to calm myself down.

"So where should we move on to?" Annie asked bringing her body closer to mine again. I wasn't expecting her to ask that, and I certainly hoped she meant what I thought she did. Instead of responding, I just lifted my eyebrows furring my brow until she continued, "You know my place or yours?"

I was so tempted to say mine and be down with it, but once again I felt like I needed Annie to initiate every step. I just didn't want to take advantage of her.

"Why are you asking me that, Annie?" I asked.

"Because Shirley is going to be coming out here soon, and she will definitely have a problem with us having sex in my car," Annie said. "At least if we're in one of our apartments she won't know."

I couldn't believe she had just said that with only a slight blush coloring her cheeks. I was completely dumbfounded. I guess that was her initiating it. I was going to take it slow every step of the way, but I had a feeling once we were anywhere near a bed she wouldn't be hesitating much.

"My place," I said. I put my hand out and said the only thing that seemed right, "Milady?"

"Milord," Annie said taking my hand.
