Although no reviews, I'm still very happy there are people favoriting and viewing the story! Thanks guys. Here's another chapter!
Manny Santos sat on a big ol pick up truck parked in a garage repair shop. She looked the same as her college years, it had only been a few years. Her smokin body wore short jean shorts and a plaid button up tank top that tied above her belly botton.
"Wrench." she heard a deep voice.
She swung her caramel colored legs back and forth from sitting on the back of the truck and then dug into the tool box for a wrench.
"Wrench!" she said back proudly, putting her hand down to the extended hand from under her, under the car.
The hand grabbed it, and then there was a chuckle, and the figure rolled out from under the vehicle.
"Years now and my woman still can't tell the difference between a wrench and a screwdriver." Jay taunted Manny, standing up in his works dark blue cover alls and he looked the same too, if not builder and leaner, with a small boxed beard. Same ol hat on his head.
Manny giggled a bit, biting her lower lip as he leaned over her and playfully glared at her until sharing a kiss. It got heated quickly, with her fingers trailed up his jawline to his hair, knocking his hat off. He sighed between the kiss and kissed her more hungerily and even one of the other employees working on another car whistled.
Manny laughed hearing Jay groan a bit and he pulled away, giving his co worker a glare.
"I thought you said we could hangout today." Manny said to Jay, looking slightly annoyed but still blown away from that kiss.
Years later and he can still make her heart skip a beat.
Jay grinned and finally grabbed that wrench.
"I told you I just gotta finish this guy up." he patted the customers truck, "Then I'm all yours." he teased, kissing the end of her nose.
Who would of thunk it right? Jay not only fallin for Manny, but her even falling for him back. They had finally gotten hitched a year before on a trip to Niagara Falls. Why not right? Been faked engaged a year, then for real for another. Time just seemed right. It's been one happy year married.. nobody from highschool would of believed it if he told them. But Manny was a babe, his babe, and he's die being hopelessly hers.
"Just the way I like it." she teased naughtily, curling her fingers around his collar to force him back to kiss her but there was no need for forcin', Jay happily accepted, parting her mouth and kissing her deeper, running his hands through her long brown hair.
"what the hell are they paying you for?" taunted a familiar voice from behind, and barked at them, "To make out on clients cars or to fix them?"
Jay grinned, ripping away from his wife (woah, so wierd to say), and turned to the one and only Sean Cameron.
"then again," smirked Sean shrugging, "Nobody can fix em like I can." he looked around the shop, still looked the same, in good shape.
Manny even smiled widely too with her dimples, jumping down from the truck and hugged Sean after Jay and him shared a manly hug and slapped hands.
"Your back, fuckin' right!" Jay noted
"Look at you." teased Sean, backing from Manny and kept his hands on her elbows and eyeing her up. Still a fox.
"Watch it." warned Jay with a pointed finger but slight smirk at Sean.
Sean and Manny both snorted. It was nothing more than a compliment, Sean and Manny had always just been friends, real good ones at that. Oddly enough, there's never been that type of attraction, just good ol friendship between very attractive people.
"You let your fiancé dress like this?" teased Sean, eyeing Manny's half naked body, "In here?" he glanced around the shop.
He remembered when- no. Lets not bring up THOSE memories. Lets just say, when he worked here and had a certain girl come visit now and then, these horn dogs never shut the hell up.
Jay shrugged, "nothin I can't handle." he smirked to Manny, then Sean, "And by the way, no longer fiancé." he lifted his own hand up to a gold ring.
Manny did too, flashing her big diamond ring with her eyes twinkling and laughed at Sean's shocked look and she tangled her fingers into Jay's
Wow.
They did it.
"So what's going on? You back for good?" Jay asked him curiously. Manny tilted her head too. That'd be interesting...
"Are you like, movin back here?" Manny asked him.
Sean coughed awkwardly. They all knew that just wouldn't work out, much to the disappointment.
"Nah. Wasaga. But I am done with the army now." nodded Sean who saw the relief on the two faces, "Come on guys, it wasn't that bad."
"You could of died.." pouted Manny. Not only was this Sean, but also her husbands best friend. When Sean first went away, Jay wouldn't admit ever it, but he was pretty worried about him.
"nah, he's a strong growin boy." teased Jay. See? Hid his fears so well, but Manny knew him better than that.
Sean chuckled and just shrugged, "Now it's over, and I got a pretty nice pay from it all."
"how much?" smirked Jay
Manny's eyes widened, impressed, and then remembered, "My cousins boyfriend only went for two years, and he got 45 thousand dollars from the government plus all the other benefits like free health care and such."
Sean nodded and noted, "Let's just say I'm set for opening my own shop soon, and gonna look for my own place now which for once won't be a shit hole."
Manny and Jay both looked happy for Sean and Jay gave him a sincere look, "Proud of you man."
"Don't get all soft on me." smirked Sean, "Your wussy enough at is now." he glanced at Manny, knowing she was the reason to that and Sean got a playful glare.
"So what are you doing here then?" Manny asked.
Sean frowned, and went serious
They eyed him and wondered. Just visiting?
"Lookin for someone.."
First thought in their head, since they couldn't help it, Sean always had this look in his eye when he thought about her ,Emma.
"No..." drifted Manny, eyeing Sean closely who began to look guilty. He could never look innocent when it came to stuff like this.
Manny looked a bit hopeful and giddy.
Jay had to laugh, "Knew it. Knew it wasn't over with you two. You never really do truly give up on her do you, Cam?."
Sean found himself get angry, "It's over." he barked, eyes flashing madly and then noticed Manny even blink and awkwardly shift. He paused to try and calm down.
It took a moment.
He huffed then clenched his jaw and looked down, "I just need to talk to her is all." he explained.
They both looked at him, dumbfounded, but Jay ended up slowly nodding but squinting his eyes weirdly at Sean.
Talk about what ? If not to win her back...again..
Manny mumbled quietly, "She's probably at her parents." she wasn't sure if she should be telling Sean this or not.
"Cool." Sean coughed awkwardly and changed the subject, "You guys wanna grab a beer tomorrow night? I'll only be here for two days."
Manny saw Jay's look of disappointment but he stiffed a nod, "Sure. See you at Bricks tomorrow?" he asked and Sean nodded, going out
Manny and Jay shared a look, for once, they were clueless on what was going to go down with those two.
Sean was walking to his truck outside, and the sun glared down til he heard his name being called.
"Sean!"
Jay jogged a bit and Sean stopped at his truck when he opened his door and nodded at him curiously.
Jay awkwardly shifted the hat on his head and then crossed his arms, "You'll always be my favorite, but, uh.." he gave a slight smirk to clear the air of negativity, "I have gotten close to Emma too.. "
Sean's eyebrows furrowed-
Jay rolled his eyes, "Not that close, Jesus. I'm a married man. Just sayin' she s a friend! And my girls bestfriend.." he pointed out, "So anyways.. she's had a rough year, so start anything, alright?"
"I start things?" Sean asked bitterly, pointing at himself in disbelief and then frowned and shrugged. Alright, maybe. "That was the old me." Sean insisted, "This conversation I need with Emma is just about.." he looked for the word, "Business."
"buisness?" Jay couldn't believe it.
Sean nodded and gave him an assuring glance before he hopped into the truck. Jay sighed but nodded and gave a small wave before he backed up.
"Hey.." Sean drifted, and Jay turned back, "Why she have a rough year?"
Jay mysteriously shrugged and left it to his imagination. He walked back into the shop and Sean gave a wierd look but decided to shrug it off. Who cares right?
"Sean frickin Cameron." Snake couldn't help it, he opened the door with a big grin on his face. He looked only slightly older but same ol ginger hair and the smile who could make anyone laugh.
Sean chuckled, "Hey Snake." he hugged him back and Snake slapped his back before pulling away
Snake stepped away, "How are you? Hows the army?" he crossed his arms, wanting to hear all about it as they stood on the front porch.
Sean scratched the back of his neck, "I'm out. It's over. Did my time." he joked, like it was prison, then they shared a sour look when the irony kicked in cause he had been in prison before.
"You back for good?"
"No.. I'm uh.. I'm in Wasaga.. have been for a while now." Sean confirmed.
Snake looked slightly hurt but then nodded, trying to understand. This city held tons of dark secrets but also fond memories. Anyways, they stood there in silence until Sean watched Snake put the pieces together... he was here for a reason.. now that Snake and Sean weren't buddies but Snake knew he wasn't there for him.
He pointed awkwardly back into the house, "You..you here for.." it was his own step daughter, and he couldn't even bring himself to say her name with Sean standing infront of him. He knew how wierd Emma got when he just brought Sean's name up in front of her.
Sean coughed slightly, appreciating the small talk, "Yeah."
Snake grinned a bit and nodded. Sean rolled his eyes. Why couldn't anyone believe him that it wasn't like that?
"Oh, shoot." cringed Snake, "She actually just stepped out."
"Where?" Sean asked desperately. Why couldn't they just get this over with?
"The Dot."
Sean shrugged and nodded. Alright, to the ol' Dot it is.
