I do not own Jeff or Shannon

I do own Rose

Rose woke up. She had sworn that she had heard something in the house. She sat up and looked around. It was still dark, the room lit by a calming blue veil. She turned to see Jeff lying next to her. His rainbow hair strewn across his face, his slow deep breaths. He really did seem like an angel in this moment. And who was she to ruin it by waking him. Seeing the bedroom door open she reached for a blade she kept in the bedroom draw. But there was no need. It was Helena. She looked like she was in a bad way. Her hair was ruffled, her shirt torn and her skin held smudges of dirt. She looked at Rose pleadingly. Rose pointed to the lounge room and mouthed -"couch". Helena mouthed back a thankyou then closed the door and glumly collapsed on Jeff's couch.

Rose was too content to be frustrated with Helena. She laid back down and rolled over to face Jeff. He hadn't stirred. His face just as peaceful as it had been. Rose moved closer to him. She put her hand across his body and laid her head on his chest. Instinctively he put his strong arm around her and then together they drifted back to sleep. His heart beat, Roses favourite lullabye.

J- "Rose. Baby. Come on, get up"

Rose lifted her head from his chest as Jeff roused her awake.

R- "Mmhhhh"

She opened her eyes slowly and saw Jeff sitting up n the bed next to her.

R- "Oh come on Hardy"

She crawled over to him, kissing his neck and wrapping her arms around his chest. She pushed her chest against his back and pressed her lips to his ears.

R- "Mmhhh. You sure you want to leave this bed just yet?"

She lent her body backwards and arched herself like a cat. She yawned disguising the motion as a stretch, not a temptation for Jeff to come back to bed.

R- "Would you honestly leave me like this?"

Jeff looked back at her and moaned

J- "How could I."

He climbed on top of her.

J- "Mmmm. How could I ever leave you like this-"

He pulled her legs out from under her and pressed himself against her body. Caressing her hips his hands moved to her thighs and ripped off her torn sarong.

R- "Haha I knew I was right"

J- "Oh girl you're not just right. Your perfect"

Rose remembered someone else saying that to her. His body like Jeff's was pushed against hers.

As if fate had prevented the painful memories returning, the two lovers heard a roaring engine skid into the driveway.

Jeff sighed deeply then got off Rose. She picked up her sarong and tied it back. Then threw on a Hardy's shirt as Jeff opened the front door.

S- "Helena!"

Helena's head jumped up from behind the couch.

H- "Shit. Rose hide me"

Rose sighed

R- "Dammit Helena. Jeff distract Shannon"

J- "Right, right"

Rose knew he was annoyed. And what man wouldn't be. In fact now that Rose thought about it she was too. But still, like the person she was, she would help Helena out.

She joined Helena on the couch.

R- "Ok what happened?"

H- "After we left the bar Shannon took me back to his house."

R- "Ok, ok I can figure out what happened there myself."

H- "But you can't. After we, well you know, had some fun. I saw that he had a mini dirt bike track at the back of his property. So I thought it would be a good idea to well, go have some fun there. But while we were both almost-

R- "Ok, enough I get the fun part"

H- "He screamed out 'Charlie oh God, Charlie' "

R- "Ah now I get it"

Shannon burst through Jeff's barricade of small talk. And came into the lounge room.

S- "Come on Hel it was one little mistake. Charlie was just an old girlfriend. She means nothing."

H- "Nothing, nothing. Well why the hell did you scream out her name when you were about to-

J&R- "That's it were out"

They disappeared back into the bedroom. Happy to finish what they had started

They stay in the bedroom for a long time, hearing the other two screaming. But soon the yells stop and Rose looks out of the front window to see Helena making out with Shannon as he carries her to the car.

R- "I don't understand those two"

She shakes her head and turns back to Jeff. He's lying on the bed his piercing eyes drilling into hers. He wanted her bad. And after what she just put him through with Helena she kinda felt guilty. She tried to ignore his lust filled look. But it was no use. He was irresistible. And as she heard Shannons car squeal out of the driveway she climbed back into Jeff's arms.

It's sappy but funny with Helena's story. Please Review
