AN: Third Chapter Woot okay let me do this!

It had been a week, and Cry-Baby and Cherry were hanging out with one another a lot. They were hardly seen without each other. Cry-Baby had given her a black leather jacket that said Cry-Baby on the back.

Cry-Baby slicked his hair back with the comb. Cherry stood next to him sucking on a lollypop. She sighed.

"What are we doing here?" She looked around the place. It was clearly turkey point.

"Your going to sing tonight babe" Hatchet face said.

"Tonight?" Cherry started to freak. "I cant...I- I don't feel well." Cry-Baby put an arm around her shoulders.

"You'll be fine." He gave her a squeeze.

Milton started to make out with Hatchet face and Pepper was already making out with her fiancée on the grass. Cherry walked over to a picnic table and sat down, Cry-Baby sat down in front of her.

"What am I going to sing?" Cry-Baby shrugged.

"Whatever you like" he smiled.

"Really Sherlock?" She reached over and put her hand over his.

He stared into her hazel eyes. Cry-Baby pulled away.

"Don't... I can't."

"You can't or you won't?" Cherry raised an eyebrow.

"You don't know..."

"Yes I do! Oh yeah she broke your heart honey but that has nothing to do with me. Alison isn't me!"

"I need time" Cry-Baby's eyes pleaded with Cherry.

"I don't have that kind of time to wait for a guy that will never come around!" Cherry stood up and left him alone to his thoughts.

Cherry sat down on the edge of the stage. She stared out into the trees. The sun leaked in through spots of the woods. She smiled, it looked so peaceful.

"Penny for your thoughts" a male voice said from the side of her. She looked over at a guy.

He had black hair; it was slicked back like every other guy. He had stunning green eyes. He was let's say gorgeous.

"I was just looking at the way the sun came through the trees" she said. He sat beside her.

"My name is Jessie what's yours?"

"Cherry...where's my penny?" He laughed and dug through his pocket and tossed her a penny. "Thanks."

"Anytime" Jessie said beaming at her. She giggled like a school girl.

Cry-Baby glared at Jessie as he flirted with Cherry. She laughed again smiling at Jessie like he was something special. 'Damn it' he thought. 'I gave her up.'

"Maybe we could hang out tomorrow or something" Jessie asked Cherry.

"That..."

"She has plans. She's hanging with us" Cry-Baby said.

"Well then maybe some other time?"

"No tomorrow will be fine Jessie. I wasn't doing anything anyway." She narrowed her eyes at Cry-Baby. "Don't speak for me."

Cry-Baby growled and stalked off in a huff. Cherry rolled her eyes.

"You with him or something?"

"Nope I'm single...free...available to be a girlfriend." Jessie chuckled.

"You want to be my girl?"

"Since you asked" Cherry grinned. Jessie held her hand. And they continued to get to know one another.

More people started to show up, Jessie and Cherry decided to sit over at the picnic table. They held hands over the table.

Cherry felt good around Jessie, he made her laugh. And that's a good trait to have to win Cherry over. She needed someway to get over Cry- Baby...she couldn't help but feel like Jessie was a rebound. And he didn't deserve to be treated as such. But when she started to think about she was really begging to like Jessie.

"You want to dance?" Jessie took Cherry's hand and led her on the dance floor as a slow song started up.

He brought her closer to his body; she laid her head on his shoulder.

"Cry-Baby what's the matter?" Milton asked.

"Look at her, she hasn't even known him for a day and there all close and shit. She's too good for him." Cry-Baby kicked up some rocks.

"Maybe if you didn't treat her like she was a threat to you then you could be the one holding her close...and kissing her" Wanda said.

"What the fuck ever Wanda, I don't treat her like that..."

"The hell you don't" Pepper argued.

"Milton and Hatchet face know that's not true!" Cry-Baby looked over at the couple. They looked away and coughed.

"Fuck you guys" Cry-Baby said and stormed off.

"Do you think he'll be okay?" Wanda looked to where he stood leaning on a tree watching Cherry and Jessie.

"If I know my brother, he'll be better than fine. He can't stand to have someone have something he wants. He'll try to get her sooner or later."

"It better be sooner...for both their sakes" Hatchet face said.

"How you kids doing" Ramona asked them.

"Peachy" Cry-Baby said.

"Well you better be cause you're going on..."

Ramona stepped out from the curtains and walked over to the microphone. Cry-Baby pulled Cherry to the side.

"You going out with him now?"

"Yeah Cry-Baby" she walked off leaving him there glaring behind her.

"Damn it" he whispered.

"Cherry!" Cry-Baby heard his grandmother yell.

Cherry stepped out onto the stage and Cry-Baby followed after, with his guitar. Cherry tapped on the microphone.

"Hey..... Is this thing on?" she said and smiled as the band started the tune.

"I saw him dancin there by the record machine I knew he musta been about seventeen. The beat was goin strong, playin my favorite soooooong. I could tell it wouldn't be long till he was with me (Yea with me) I could tell it wouldn't be long till he was with me (Yea with me) Singin

I love rock and roll, so put anotha dime in the jukebox baby I love rock and roll so come and take the time and dance with me!"

Cry-Baby put his guitar to the left side of him so it wasn't in front of him. Cherry rubbed her body on his. "Owwww."

The crowd cheered. "He smiled so I got up and asked for his name But tha't don't matter he said cause it's all the same I said can I take you home. Where we can be alooooone. And next we were movin on and he was with me (Yea with me). And we were movin on and sing that same old song (Yea with me)

She rubbed her butt into his crotch. "Owwww!"

"I love rock and roll, yea Cause it soothe's my soul, yea I love rock and roll, Yeaaaaa" they both sang.

"He said can I take you home, where we can be alooooooone And next we were movin on and he was with me (Yea with me) And we were movin on and singin that same old song (Yea with me)

Singin

I love rock and roll, so put anotha dime in the jukebox baby I love rock and roll so come and take the time and dance with me!"

The crowd cheered as she finished. She and Cry-Baby bowed. They got off the stage, they both burst into laughter.

"That was so much fun" Cherry said. "I see why you like it."

"I didn't know you could dance like that" he smiled after the laughter subsided. "Wow."

"Something I picked up..."

"Kinda sexy" he growled sexily. Cherry smiled.

"Just a little...such a turn on" she walked to him making the space shrink. She ran a hand from his chest to his neck. "Mmm you know you liked it" she whispered.

"Yeah" he breathed.

"Too bad I'm not going out with you" she moved her hand to his hair and moved it around messing it. "I like the look!"

"Cherry" Jessie called. She ran to him and he hugged her. "That was great!"

"Thanks" she kissed him fully on the mouth. "You wanna go get something to eat. I'm starving!"

"I cant sorry, I have to go home. My parents you know. But I'll pick you up tomorrow at 2:00 and take you to lunch." He kissed her goodbye.

She turned around and went to Cry-Baby. "You want to get something to eat?"

"That would be great" he said. They told the gang that they were going to go get something to eat.

Cry-Baby pulled up at Duff's diner. "There still open we can grab a burger."

"Okay" she said and followed him to a table.

"What do you want to eat?" Cry-Baby asked. Cherry shrugged.

"Cheeseburger and a chocolate malt."

The waitress took their orders and brought out their food. "I want to try your chocolate malt" he reached over and took her glass. She took his.

"I like it better mixed" Cherry said giving it back to him. "Here have half my burger I want half your pasta." She cut her burger in half.

"Oookay" he took it and placed it on a napkin.

"Are you going to go in the singing biz?" Cherry asked him. He shrugged.

"I don't know...it's a possibility" he took another bite of his pasta. She nodded.

"Soooo" Cherry said after a long silence.

"What?" Cherry burst into laughter he had some sauce on his chin. She reached over with her napkin and wiped at it.

Their eyes met and held. He put his hand over hers, and he smiled. She sat back down.

"You can't..."

"Or I won't? I want to now" he said.

"Not when I'm going out with someone else. Jeez Cry-Baby I wanted to, but now I'm going out with someone who can be himself around me. You aren't sure that you want to go out with me anyway...its cause someone else has me so you want me. Well you can't have me."

"Damn it Cherry, I needed time. And now I see that you're the girl I want."

"Cry-Baby, Jessie didn't need time. You want me you don't need me." Cherry finished off her malt. "We can still be friends."

"I'll always want to be more than friends with you Cherry. But if that's the only way we can be together than I'll just be friends with you."

Cherry opened her mouth to say something but Cry-Baby stuffed pasta in there. He grinned at her.

"I love how you don't want to talk you just shove food in the person's mouth" she said.

"You ready to go?"

Cry-Baby dropped her off at Wanda's house. He watched her go up the porch, she waved him bye and went in. He started to drive home.

"Cherry where have you been?" Aunt Karen exclaimed. "You need to be back here at a certain time in this house."

"And what time is that mother?" Wanda was standing at the stairs.

"Oh well...I don't know but I'll figure one out" she said.

"You do that Aunt Karen and when you figure that out you can tell us" Cherry said grinning.

"Off you go Cherry; I'm sure you two have lots to talk about. Like boys" Wanda's mother smiled.

"Sure Aunt Karen, that's exactly what we talk about." Cherry and Wanda went into Wanda's room.

"Tell me, who you going out with?" Cherry sat down next to Wanda on the bed.

"Jessie Thompson." Wanda raised an eyebrow.

"What happened to...?"

"Cry-Baby? Well he wanted me to wait. Then after I started to go out with Jessie he wants to go out with me now. I can't deal with his shit right now."

"Oh I see, but you still like him right?"

"Yeah, only god knows why. There's something to Cry-Baby."

"You're pretty much playing hard to get."

"Yeah I guess I am. I don't want to hurt Jessie he so nice and funny."

"And a fucking asshole. Just be careful, cause if he hurts you I don't want to have to kill him." Wanda and Cherry laughed.

"I'm sure you will" Cherry said. "I can look after myself though."

"That's good, well I'm tired."

Wanda and Cherry got dressed and went to bed. Cherry smiled, 'Hard to get' she thought.

The next day Wanda and Cherry went to Cry-Baby's house. Wanda told him about what she and Cherry talked about.

"Hard to get?" He combed his hair. "That's interesting."

"Just keep at it. She'll give, you could always seduce her." Hatchet face added. Cry-Baby laughed.

"Make her beg to have you" Pepper said from the couch.

"Make who beg?" Cherry asked walking in the front door. She was playing with Peppers kids.

"Oh no one" Milton said. "Just talking about chickens." Pepper smacked him over the head.

"Young, mean and stupid" Ramona said. "Oh is he stupid."

Cherry sat down on the couch next to Cry-Baby. He scooted closer to her making he scoot all the way to the armrest. He smiled at her and placed his arm over the back of the couch. She stared at him confused by his actions.

"Well I have to go to the store, Cry-Baby can I take your car?" asked Ramona.

"Yeah sure...don't you kids need something" she said indicating them to get out of the house.

"Oh yeah well come with you." Pepper said. Milton agreed and they all left the house leaving Cry-Baby and Cherry on the couch....home alone.

"Cherry" he whispered. She looked at him and he brought his lips to hers, in a smoldering kiss.

He teased her...well two can play at that game. She ran her hand down his chest; she lifted up his shirt and caressed his abs. He moaned into the kiss, his hand went to her right breast. She arched up in his massaging.

She realized what she was doing and pushed him away. "Damn it."

Cherry tried to clear her head, it was still thinking of all the things she could do to him...and him to her.

"Don't tell me you didn't like that" he whispered sending tingling sensations down her neck. She shivered in response.

"I have to go" Cherry said getting up and fixing her shirt. "I'm meeting Jessie in an hour."

"Call him, cancel stay with me" he said and stood up walking over to her. "Stay with me Cherry." She looked into his deep brown lusty eyes; her eyes probably looked the same.

"I think I like that you sound sincere" she smiled. "But I'm still going out with...with."

"Jessie?" Cry-Baby smirked. He was getting to her; she already forgot her own boyfriend's name.

"I know his name...I was seeing if you knew" she poked him the chest. "Stop smiling you adorable fool!"

He kissed her again. His tongue entering her mouth, he rubbed his tongue gently on the roof of her mouth. She moaned and melted at his touch. He rubbed her arms bringing his hands to her face, cupping it.

"I need you Cherry" he said huskily. "I need you so damn bad."

"Oh no" she pushed away. "No! Stop trying to make me forget about everything and then make ruff animal sex with you. I wont I still have con...trol." He came closer to her.

"Cherry you can stop trying to make me jealous cause it worked. He has you and I don't."

"Exactly he has me not you. Speaking of which I have to get going."

Cry-Baby took her home on his motor cycle...she was reluctant at first. But he knew she enjoyed it when she put her head on his shoulder.

Cherry ran up the stairs trying to hurry and get dressed for her date. Inga sat in the room watching Cherry going through her clothes.

"Does this look good?" Cherry raised a red shirt.

"Yeah!" Inga said.

"Na." She rummaged through so more. "How about this?" She held up a blue shirt with buttons coming down the front...it was tight on her.

"Yeah!" Cherry rolled her eyes.

"Is that all you say?"

"Yeah!"

"Figures" Cherry mumbled putting on the red shirt and putting on some leather skin tight pants. "Do I look alright? Yeah right?"

"You looka fine" Inga said.

"Mmm hmm." Cherry heard the door bell. She ran down the stairs and beat Uncle James to it. She caught her breath and opened the door.

Her stomach did flip-flops. Cry-Baby stood there with a smirk on his face.

"You look almost too good to eat" he pushed passed her. She whipped around.

"What are you doing here? I have a date, remember?"

"I remember but I wanted to get you a little frazzled before you went on that 'date'" he said. She grabbed him by the jacket and came face to face with him.

"Leave." She growled. He kissed her. She pulled away. "Stop!"

"Mmm you do taste good." He grinned as she started to push him out the door. "What no desert?"

"Jessie" Cherry smiled.

"Oh yes Jessie" Cry-Baby said in a girlish squeal.

"Don't mind him he was just leaving weren't you Cry-Baby?"

"Oh yes if that's what you want to say after we spent long hours holding each other tight." Cherry blushed.

"I did no such thing!" She exclaimed.

"Maybe it will be better for me to come back another time." Jessie looked between Cherry and Cry-Baby.

"That would be great thanks" Cry-Baby said.

"No you don't have to go. If you go I'm going too." Cherry glared at Cry-Baby. "You better not be here when I get back."

"Love you too doll" he blew her a kiss.

"I'll give you something to kiss" she said walking out of the house.

"Hey Mrs. Woodward what's cooking. I'm going to be here for a while."
