I was walking hand in hand with Jim towards the exit of the school.

He changed over the years. He muscles on his arms, chest, and abs. they weren't huge like Damien but he wasn't lanky as Simon either.

They were in the middle. Visible and oh so sexy.

After a while of us talking, he grew quiet for some reason.

"Is everything okay?" I asked,

He didn't answer.

"Jim?"

"Hmm, What? Oh, I'm sorry. I wasn't listening. What did you say?" he said, smiling at me.

"I asked, if everything was okay?"

"Well, yeah, I guess but why didn't you tell me you were in a band?" he didn't sound angry nor upset, but his voice sounded like he was in doubt.

"Well, I don't know. Every time we try to talk, you're always busy and when we do talk, its only for a short time so I guess I never had the chance." I said, looking down.

"Well, it doesn't matter. I'm glad you found something to do while I was gone."

"You're not mad, are you?"

"No, I'm not mad, I just wondered why you didn't tell me."

Phew, good. I can't stand for him to be mad. "The guy, on the other hand, I don't know, I have a feeling he hates me."

I laughed quietly and pulled his hand to stop him from walking. "Simon doesn't hate you, he's just jealous."

"Well, he always hits on you. I don't like it."

"He just…hey! How did you know he hits on me?" I asked. I haven't said anything to him nor my friends.

He smiled sheepishly and rubbed the back of his head. "I sort of, listened in on you guys during your rehearsal."

I yanked my hand out of his and crossed my arms.

"What? Why didn't you come in? I can't believe you spied on me!" I said, feeling anger boiling in my veins but forcing myself to calm down

"I'm sorry. I didn't want to bother you and if I came in, you would lose your concentration."

"I don't…"

He raised a hand and stopped me. "Don't lie. Tell me if you concentrated for a long period of time with me in your mind."

I was about to contradict but then shut my mouth. He was right. All I could concentrate on is him.

"Thought so. But anyways, I'm sorry." He said, grabbing my hands and smiling my favorite lopsided grin.

I refused to give in but he had pulled me from my waist to his body and held me there. "I love it when you get feisty."

He kissed my forehead, and then trailed his lips down my face and near my mouth.

I shook my head away and he gave me his famous sad face.

He placed my hands on his neck and wrapped his arms around my waist.

"Vida, come on. I missed you, especially those nights…." He whispered while nibbling my neck, then placing his forehead against mine.

I smiled and answered, "Well, why don't we go make it up later tonight? You owe me big time."

He chuckled and leaned in to kiss me.

We kissed until we heard someone yell, "Hey cutie!"

He growled softly out of annoyance and pulled away, while holding my hand.

I turned and saw the devil smirking with her 2 friends behind her, trying to copy her movements and wardrobe.

"Aly! What are doing here?" I hissed at her.

But she wasn't staring at me, she was staring at Jim with her flirty eyes and smiling.

Jim tightened his grip on my hand and stepped back slightly.

"So, how much did loser here pay for you to kiss her."

"I didn't pay him anything. He's my boyfriend."

"Ha! You? You can't get a boyfriend. He's so way out of your league. He has the bad boy type that I looove."

She said, getting close to me.

I stepped towards her too, my posture in the defensive.

"For your information, Aly, we've been dating for 3 yrs now, a much higher number than any of your ex's of the week combined."

Now, our faces were inches apart. She was smirking and I was dead serious.

"Whatever! How much do you want to bet if I kiss him, he'll dump you on the spot?"

"You wouldn't dare."

"Look, I am her boyfriend and she isn't lying. Besides, why does a plastic doll matter what other people do or not?" he said.

I gasped along with the other girls at his words. By now, he had come up behind me and shot her an angry look that he did to Silver when we were younger.

"Aww, whatever!" she said, waving us off but I knew he had thrown her off. "I know you'll be after me. They always do."

She walked past us and snapping her fingers for the other girls to follow.

Once they were out of earshot, I turned to Jim and he was still miffed, they was his eyebrows were scrunched up.

"I don't like her. She comes on too strong." He said, looking back at me.

"How do you know her?"

"Earlier, when I was looking for you. She kept touching me and flirting. God, I hate girls like that. I like someone who's feisty and who played pranks on my and torturing when we were on the R.L.S Legacy." He quirked an eyebrow and smiled.

I laughed and hugged him.

"I hope you're talking about me."

"But if I wasn't… Oh no! Don't give me that look. Of course, I mean you."

I smiled and we kissed each other tenderly, then walked off to our house.
