Chapter 2: Body Language
In the past few hours, there were several of things that James learned. One, Fiona liked to shop. And if he had to give a million-dollar guess, he would say that she liked to shop more than she liked to drink. But she did admit that she liked to drink. The second thing he learned was to never ever comment on Emma's studying habits. While walking back to his room, he passed Manny and Emma and they had a brief casual talk (if one counted an hour long talk with a bit of flirting brief and casual). It was then when he heard of Emma's studying routine. While she partied like a normal college student, she still worked like a dog. The final thing was that Peter was not the one to stay cooped up all day. James learned this because Peter had yet to return while Victoria was seen walking about. She said that Peter had things to take care of, but James did not care.
It was currently a quarter after nine and James was prepared to go to The Ravine. Strangely, it had been Manny to give him instructions. When asked would she be there, she just shrugged and replied, "Only if my boyfriend comes." James hoped that she was referring to Marco. Another guy would be a bit of a hindrance.
The door opened to reveal Peter, who was followed by Mia. After seeing a picture of Mia on Peter's headboard, James had realized that she was a mother of a little girl. But baby or not, Mia Jones was another sexy girl James had met today at BU.
"What are you doing? Aren't you coming to The Ravine?" Peter asked.
"Yeah. I was just resting a while." James said.
"Hey, do you want something Mia?" Peter asked going to the small refrigerator. "A soda or water? I know you don't drink beer."
"I'm fine Peter." Mia answered. "So, James, where are you from?"
"D.C." he answered while thinking that Peter must have told Mia his name while they were out doing whatever.
"Hey Jaime, what are you majoring in?" Peter asked.
"Law." James answered.
Peter sighed. "Great. I lose another fifty." Peter tossed James a canned soda, which he caught. "I met a bet with Sav that you were a computer nerd. Seems as if I was wrong."
James nodded before Mia sat on Peter's bed. Peter sat beside Mia before her face scrunched up.
"Go change. You smell like cigarette smoke." Mia said.
"Well, I know one way you can get my shirt off." Peter replied before kissing.
James felt extremely awkward as Peter pushed Mia onto his bed, their lips never breaking contact. It appeared as that kiss was going to turn into something else as Peter's hand went up Mia's shirt, groping her right breast. Seeing as the two had forgot about him, James sighed before doing something he hated doing.
"Ahem." James cleared his throat, causing the other two to look at him.
"Dude, we so have to get you a girlfriend." Peter stated as Mia sat up.
"Come on Peter, go get a new shirt." Mia replied. "And we'll um go back to my place afterwards. I think I can find a way to get Holly J out of the room long enough for us to finish."
Peter scoffed as he stood up. "That could take days."
James just opened his soda. He clearly did not want hear about his roommate's sexual stamina. And as Peter stepped into the small bathroom, there was a knock on the door. Grunting in annoyance, James sat his soda on the headboard and went to open the door, only to find Declan.
"Have you seen my sister?" Declan asked.
James shook his head. "Not since we came back. Why? She run off?"
"Yeah. With Bobby." Declan replied. "We were supposed to go to The Ravine together, but that doesn't look like that's going to be happening."
"Wait, didn't you say that you had a car?" James asked.
"Well they surely didn't walk. And for some reason, she does almost everything Bobby tells her to." Declan said. "I really don't need her to be getting out of my sight tonight. If she shows up on the first day of school drunk…"
James nodded. He understood the pressure of having a good image nearly twenty-four seven. Thankfully, there was only one of him. He had no clue on what he would do with a younger brother or sister. They would ruin much of his life, let alone his parents. Thank God he was an only child.
"I'm sure they haven't gone far." James said.
"I hope you're right Jaime. It's really unlike Fi to go have a 'good time' without coming back with one of her famous 'headaches.'" Declan said.
"Well," James said. "Since Peter is seconds away from having his way with Mia, I'll walk around with you mate and see if we can't find someone who knows where they ran off to."
"Mia?" Declan asked as he peered over James to see Mia sitting on the bed.
James walked to grab his keys. Before he could make it out of the room, Peter had reentered with a new shirt on.
"You stepping out?" Peter questioned.
"Searching for Fi." James answered. "I'm going to go straight to The Ravine."
"Sure man. See you there." Peter said as James stepped out.
"Let's go find your sister mate." James said.
Declan, now used to James's lingo, just nodded and followed him. The two walked down the halls quietly.
"So, I take it that Bobby is the reason she drinks." James said.
Nodding, Declan sighed tiresomely. "I used to think she did it when she was really stressed. But now I see that it only happens when she's out with him."
James did not respond. He remembered what Fiona had said earlier, that she only drank the previous day because her roommate was annoying. That meant that Fiona did only drink when she was stressed or irritated and Bobby irritated her. Somehow. Someway.
Before the two made it out of the dorm, Declan's cell phone rang. He put the caller on speaker.
"Fi, where the hell are you?" Declan asked.
"I'm at The Ravine silly!" Fiona replied. It did not take a rocket scientist to tell that she was drunk. "So when are you coming?"
"Fiona, stay there. I'm on my way." Declan said.
"Duh." replied Fiona before giggling. "You think I'm dumb enough to wreck your car. Although…" Fiona gave a small hiccup and giggled afterwards. "See you soon bro!"
"Fiona-" but Fiona hung up causing Declan to give a frustrated breath. "Jaime, how fast can you get us to The Ravine?"
"Fast enough mate." James said. "Let's go."
James and Declan got into James's Nissan for the third time that day.
"Don't worry mate, we'll get to her before she does something that'll hurt her." James said.
James stared his car up and began using Manny's notes to get to The Ravine.
She did not give him normal directions like street names and such. She gave him directions that gave him more details. Directions such as, "You'll take a left and see a house with a raggedy car parked in front of it because it never moves," and "Go straight until you see Burger King, it should be on your right. If you get to the rundown car shop, you've gone too far." It appeared to him that she herself did not know the street names, but he did not press the matter. Beauty could get one far these days.
Speaking of which, James had met a number of them already. Of course, and unfortunately, all of them were currently seeing someone. Manny and Marco and Fiona and Bobby. He hated the thought that he, the son of a congresswoman and actor, would ever be jealous, but he could not help but to feel that way now. It was not like he could just find some random girl to sleep with like he would normally do.
A little over thirty minutes later, James pulled into the club and saw that it was packed. He sighed heavily as he and Declan got out.
The two had to wait in line for nearly fifteen minutes before they entered the club. They looked around.
"God, where is she?" Declan asked.
"Don't know." James replied. Unfortunately for Declan, James was not just looking for Fiona. After a day of being three for three with hot girls with boyfriends (two if he thought about Manny's entire situation) he was near desperate to find someone to talk to.
"There she is." Declan said. James followed the young man to his twin sister, who was sitting on one of the two VIP sofas smiling.
"You made it! I thought I was going to have to have fun without you!" Fiona said cheerfully.
"She's smashed mate." James stated to Declan. "Full, charged, and blotto." Declan, like his sister, had gotten used to James's chose of words to a degree. "She's had to be here for nearly an hour."
"Where's Bobby?" Declan asked his drunk sister.
"Who?" Fiona responded. Declan gave Fiona a confused look. "Oh, Bobby! My boyfriend! He left because he didn't want to be seen with me drunk in public." Declan exchanged glances with James. "Am I embarrassing you too Dex?"
"No…" Declan said. "Just, just stay put. There's no point in coming all they way down here and not doing something. And James, can you just keep an eye on her? You don't have to ruin your entire night, just glance over every now and again."
"Sure." James said. "I'm going to go over here."
"Go ahead." Declan said before James walked off.
"Bye Jaime!" Fiona called.
James did not bother to respond. The girl was definitely smashed and he would let Declan handle her. So instead, he focused on the other people within the packed club. He went to dance with a girl who he had no clue on who she was, but she accepted him as a dance partner while he casual glanced around.
Fiona was still in her spot, which was good. He saw Peter come in with a group that included Mia and four others who he did not know. He then saw Declan talking to some brunette with a nose ring. The two were talking pretty close up before Declan kissed her.
Lucky bastard. That was all James thought about before a small, delicate, and yet strong hand, grabbed him and moved him away from his mysterious dance partner. He turned to see it was Manny.
"Didn't know you were here." James said as she led him to a table where Emma and two boys sat, neither of them being Marco.
"Hey Jaime, I want you to meet some people." Manny said. "This is J.T and his friend Toby. Guys, this is Jaime, Peter's new roommate."
"Wassup?" the one known as J.T said.
"Nothing much mate." James replied as Manny released him and at down beside Emma. "So you guys just come to hang out here?"
"Only because Emma isn't allowed to go to The Dot for like a hundred years." Manny replied.
Emma gaped. "You promised you'd never tell!"
"Oh be quiet. Besides, with Jaime's weird lingo no one will understand him if he tries to repeat it." Manny said.
"True." Emma said with a smile.
James did not reply only because it was partially true. Sometimes he cursed his father's Australian background and the fact that he had spent enough time to pick up on their lingo, whether it was outdated or not.
"Hey, there's Kendra." Toby said rising from his seat. "I'll talk to you guys later."
Toby walked away, prompting James to take his seat. He was not going to stand all night.
"Funny how it's the nerd that's the only one of us seeing someone." J.T commented.
James frowned. "I thought you and Sean were dating Emma."
"No, we're not. We're trying to mend out problems out." Emma said.
"Mind telling me what happened?" James asked.
Emma sighed. "He caught me, well…"
"He caught her sucking Jay off. Damn Em, you're so shy." Manny said for her friend.
"Well no one can be as blunt as you!" Emma replied.
"And they're friends?" James asked.
J.T shrugged. "You get used to it." A woman laid a tray of four drinks on the table before walking away. "Thanks babe!"
"Who was that mate?" James asked J.T.
"I haven't the slightest clue." J.T said before grabbing a glass of beer. "Toast for the new year."
"Cheers!" Manny and Emma said grabbing a glass and clanking it loudly with J.T's.
James smiled before doing the same thing.
"Cheers mate." James said before taking a large gulp of the drink.
Manny eyed him curiously. "Aren't you nineteen?"
"Yeah." James answered.
"Never mind then." Manny said, drinking her beer as well.
"Ah that hit the spot." J.T said sitting his now empty glass down. "Now, time to find someone who doesn't play hard-to-get or revenge. Or both."
"Go." Emma said before J.T smiled and walked away. She saw the small frown on James's face. "J.T has a huge crush on Manny but she won't date him anymore for whatever the reason."
"He was jacking off to Liberty of all people." Manny explained.
James shrugged. "I don't even know who that is."
"Whatever. You might as well so you can stop crying over… You know." Emma said. Manny rolled her eyes. "Oh come on. You and I both know that you're just aching for some good fuck since Marco surely isn't."
"Yeah, but he can lick a pussy dry." Manny said with a wink.
James just finished his drink. That was his green card right there. Manny was getting tired of playing pretend-girlfriend with Marco. Which was good, because as far as James knew, he was the only one next to Emma and J.T that knew Manny was bored.
"I bet." it was Emma's giggle that brought James back to reality momentarily.
The two girls laughed for a while before Manny's eyes caught onto someone.
"Oh goody. Queen Paige has come." she said lifelessly.
"She's your best-friend the last time I heard." Emma said. "Which makes me wonder why I even put up with you."
"Puh-lease." sighed Manny.
"She's coming this way." Emma noted.
"Come on Jaime. We're dancing." Manny said/ordered.
James gave Emma a look who gave him a "do or die" glance in response. James stood up and followed the short girl to the dance floor while this Paige chick talked to Emma.
"Down here." Manny said, causing James to look from the table down to meet Manny's eyes. "So, you're from D.C, right? How's it down there?"
"The same as in large city, I guess." James answered. "It's better in the winter. Snowball fights all around."
"Really? Sounds like fun." Manny said. "But… I want to know more about you."
James cocked an eyebrow. "Me? Why's that love?"
Manny shrugged. "I don't know. You just seem different."
"Well, I can tell you that I'm completely lost in Toronto." James said. "You, Emma, Peter, and Declan are the only 'friends' I have. Then again, you've warned me of Peter, he's warned me of you, and Declan seems to be worried about his sister and random girls, so that's not saying much."
"What did Peter say?" Manny asked.
"Nothing much. Just you know a good lay when you saw one." James responded.
"Hmm…" Manny hummed before turning around, grinding herself against James. "Guess I can't be mad at him for telling the truth."
James felt himself growing harder and harder the more she pushed backwards. The two were moving in complete sync soon and a smile grew on Manny's lips.
"You're good." Manny said, taking his hands and placing them on her stomach. "A bit too good. Sure you're a virgin?"
James laughed. "I'm not a virgin love."
"Really? With who?" Manny asked, looking over her shoulder at James.
"It honestly would do you no justice if I started naming names." James said. "So why don't you tell me why you're pissed at Peter."
"He decided to reenact Girls Gone Wild at a party where I was drunk and I flashed the camera." Manny said. "He got a few other girls too, but I was beyond pissed when I saw it on the internet."
James then grinned mentally. Peter had a video of Manny flashing the camera? He would love to see a drunk Manny in high school. It would both hot and hilarious.
"Of course, that's as close as he's ever been to seeing me naked." Manny said, looking up at James.
"I bet." James said.
Manny turned herself around and pressed against James. He simply smiled. She was a tease, but he had dealt with them before. Despite his growing erection, he would make sure that he was completely poker-faced.
"Let's see what you're working with." Manny said grabbing his manhood through his pants. "Well, well, seems that I underestimated you."
"Your fault love." James stated. "Bet you'd love to see it."
"You're arrogant." she replied.
"You're the one with my cock in your hands mate." James said with a grin.
"True." Manny said kissing him.
The taste of beer filled his mouth, but he did not mind. He was sure that she tasted the same thing as their tongues battled briefly. His hands went behind her and cupped her soft rear through her skirt. He paused as he rubbed a bit.
"Going commando are we?" he asked her, to which she just smiled.
"Are you?" replied the girl.
"Oh Jaime!" Fuck. "I'm ready to go home. Now."
James looked at Fiona. "Where's Declan?"
"How the hell should I know?" Fiona asked swaying a bit. James knew that she was hardly sober enough to walk, let alone hold a decent conversation. "He said uh something about June, Jan, Jen, her."
"Who?" James asked.
"June, Jan, Jen, whatever her name is!" Fiona said, frustration on her face. "I just want to go home now. I have a headache. The music is way too loud."
"Did she forget she was in a club?" Manny whispered to James.
"Surprised she remembered my name." James said releasing Manny. "But I should get her back before she passes out." Manny nodded. "Come with me? Peter's going to Mia's place later on so I'll have the place to myself."
Manny appeared to be pondering the thought before shaking her head.
"No. Go ahead." Manny said. "I'll catch up with you later, okay?"
"Fine." James said. "Let's go Fi."
"Bye." Fiona said cheerfully to Manny as waved.
James led Fiona away, she clumsily latched onto him, smiling from ear to ear.
"You are so hard right now." Fiona said. "She was basically-"
"Fi, let's just get you in the bed." James said. "And find your brother."
"You're my newest bestest friend Jaime!" Fiona announced. "Hey everyone! Meet my-"
"Ssh!" James hissed. "Come on Fiona."
Fiona only giggled as they left the place. James, attempted to call Declan, but only got his answering machine. James figured that Declan must have left with the girl from earlier.
Again, lucky bastard.
"I'm going to take a nap now." Fiona said causing her seat to lounge backwards.
James sighed. "Sure Fiona."
Once James returned to the school, he went to Fiona's dorm first. While attempting to get her out of the car (she was quite strong when she refused to move) his cell phone rang.
"Yeah." James answered.
"Hey," James wanted to shoot Declan now. He called after all of his chances with Manny were lost. "Do you have Fi? I took five minutes with Jane and she's gone. Again."
"Yeah, I took her home." James said. "She's refusing to get out of my car now."
"Thanks. I owe you one." Declan said.
James did not respond, though he was agreeing with Declan two hundred percent. He gave Fiona one more tap to get her up.
"What?" she asked irritated.
"It's your brother mate." James said to her, holding his phone out to her.
Fiona sighed as she sat up. "Dex, I'm really not in the mood." James had no clue on what he was telling her, but it caused her to swing her legs out of the car and onto the paved parking lot. "Yeah, I know. I'll do that. Just stop bugging, alright? I'm back at my d-woo!" James had to catch Fiona as she nearly fell. She laughed. "I'm fine. I'm going to bed. Goodnight."
With that, she hung up and handed James his phone back. James just put it in his pocket as he closed the door with his foot.
"Let's get you to bed." James said.
"Hmm… Now that sounds naughty." Fiona said.
James sighed. He should have seen that one coming. However, he just led her, with her directions of course, to her dorm room. When he got to the door, Fiona fumbled with her keys, laughing all the while. When she actually found the correct key and unlocked the door, James opened it and was met with a powerful slap of perfume that nearly made him fall.
"Are you going to be alright?" James asked sitting her down on what he assumed was her bed. Fiona sprawled out onto the bed. "Fi? Are you-"
"Ssh… Just let me sleep." Fiona said. "Thanks Jaime."
"You're welcome." James said before stepping out of the room, making sure to lock the door behind him.
It took James about five minutes for him to get to his dorm room. He felt it to be a waste of gas to go back to The Ravine. He would just sleep the rest of the night away. He stopped in front of his dorm room and hesitated before opening the door. Thankfully, Peter was either still at the club or remembered his deal with Mia. Either way, they weren't there.
James rubbed his head, his hand skimming over the neatly cut black hair, before moving to take his shirt off. He took his pants off and slipped on a pair of shorts. While he was not "chiseled" as some girls would like, surfing and mounting climbing did have results on him. He was no sook.
He lied in his bed and sighed heavily. He was a little hungry but opted to get something tomorrow morning before class instead of leaving again. He hardly knew his way around Toronto and was not going to waste time trying to find somewhere to eat at this hour.
Curious, he checked the time on his phone. A quarter after midnight. That was probably the earliest he has ever returned from a club.
Knocking caused him to rise and slip on a white singlet and walked to the door. He opened to see Manny smiling.
"Ready for the real thing?" she asked.
James hardly had enough time to replay what had just occurred before she began kissing him feverishly, pushing him backwards and closing the door with her foot. As their kissing continued, Manny's fingers reached for his shirt. James allowed her to remove his shirt before she pushed him onto the bed, straddling him as he lied, their kissing resuming almost instantly.
James reached out and grabbed the bottom of her shirt. She raised her arms and he lifted it over her head, throwing it somewhere in the room. He was not about to stop to find out where. Her bra-clad breast pushed against him as the two began kissing erotically again. James was thoroughly confused about how it had come to this in just a few short hours, but he was far from complaining.
James's hands moved behind the brunette beauty to unclasp her bra, which she was more than willing to shake off. James sat up and his lips latched onto her right nipple. A moan escaped her as he gave it hearty suck while his left hand groped and massaged the other breast.
"God you're so good at this." Manny panted out.
James just smirked as he switched from one breast to the other and she arched her back to get more of her flesh inside of his mouth. This time his right hand went beneath her skirt, rubbing her hot and throbbing core. Once he felt her hips bucking to get more friction, he stuck a finger inside of her. This caused the brunette to throw her head back slightly. It had been a while since Marco or any guy has done this to her. Her slick walls invited his finger into her in all ways except verbal, and James continued to push his finger deeper into her.
Manny countered this by pushing him onto his back. She back off of him slowly before gripping his shorts and boxers, pulling them off simultaneously. Her hand then gripped his manhood and she moved back onto him. She sensually rubbed herself against him causing James to grow a bit impatient.
"You ever ate a girl out before?" Manny asked him. James, unashamedly, nodded. "Good." Manny rose off of him and discarded her skirt, revealing her shaven pussy. She rolled beside him in the bed, the two lying eye-to-eye. "Well? What are you waiting for?"
James laughed a bit. "You're a minx love."
James moved over her and kissed her deeply, her body pushing up to feel more of him. He broke the kiss and began kissing her neck, determined to make sure a hickey was going to show later. Afterwards, he trailed his tongue to her breast, sucking on the buds that wanted more attention. He continued his trails of kisses down her body to her inner thighs. After giving each thigh a sufficient lick, Manny widened her legs, beckoning him to taste her. And he did.
"James… God!" Manny moaned as she arched her back, pushing his tongue deeper into her. "This… Ah! This is so… So much better than Marco!"
James's hands went up to her breasts again, fondling them rigorously. She took his left hand and began to sucking on his index and middle finger to stop her moans from escaping. James began to double his efforts, which caused her to bite down on his fingers slightly while her other hand pressed him into her further. Since he had cut his hair, there was really nothing for her to grab. And before she could go to an orgasmic bliss, he pulled his head away from her.
She pouted only briefly before he reached into his bag under the bed, producing a condom. Slipping it on, James lied flush against Manny.
"You tasted lovely," James said. "But I'm getting a bit bored love."
"Please… I need you James." she gasped out before kissing him.
James smiled, brushing some of her sweaty hair from her face.
"Sure thing love." James said before lining himself up and slowly thrusting inside of her.
Manny gave a lustful moan before locking eyes with James, as if giving him the command to move. He began thrusting in and out of her, slow and first but soon picking up speed and rhythm. And Manny complied, shooting her hips to match his. The sound of the mattress, the rocking bed, and their skin slapping was heard accompanied by James's grunts and Manny's moans/screams.
"Please… Please make me come!" Manny breathed into his ear.
James only complied by doubling his speed and force. Manny's legs wrapped around his waist, her ankles locked and she pulled him into her for another heated kiss. He felt her moaning into his mouth and the thought that she was his made him hold off until she was done.
Soon, he felt her walls clench around him, milking him, and her body shook beneath his. A few more thrusts later and he too reached his peak. The two rolled their hips, riding out the climax of their night before James rolled off of her.
They lied in his bed in a tired and sweaty heap and smile gracing Manny's features.
"A… Part of… Marco and… My deal was…" she panted out. "I couldn't… Have sex with… An ex… Until… He came… Out to his parents…"
"Great… Fucking… Idea…" James responded.
This caused Manny to laugh. "I know…" James saw her close her eyes. "Now… Sleep."
"Yeah." James replied.
James closed his eyes as well before feeling her body against him once more. He looked to see Manny's dark curls sprayed across his chest. He thought about grabbing the comforter and draping over them, but they needed to cool down anyway.
"Goodnight Jaime." Manny said tiredly.
"Night." James responded.
A/N: By the way, Candyluver1910, there will eventually be a Declan/Holly J moment. But please, just be patient with me. And for everyone else, review and tell me what you think. Ciao.
