A/N: So like I actually decided to finish this fic and yep… the same warnings and disclaimers and stuff apply from previous chapters… so here goes to the fic: oh wait… wait… wait… this is a more Summer/Amy chapter than a Malex chapter but the next chapter is gonna be more Malex…
----------------------------------------------
"Party at Alex's" Jodie says when she leaves the office.
"What?" Alex and Amy say in unison.
"Come on Al… to celebrate our new jobs… me staying in New Port… we have to have a little party!" Jodie says…
"It will be fun" Marissa adds wanting to spent more time with Alex.
It was way too much! Alex couldn't say no to Jodie let alone Marissa.
"Fine!" she says succumbing to them both.
"What?" Amy says again knowing she'd be stuck cleaning up any mess they made.
"Wait… new job"? Holly asks, realizing a little too late what Jodie had said. Jodie nods.
"Jo… If you don't go back… I can't go back! I can't afford rent on my own!" Holly says in complete disbelief.
"Then you stay… we get an apartment together!" Jodie says making Tara smile widely.
"You guys can stay with me." Tara says, speaking mostly to Holly.
"But Jo… Our stuff back in LA!" Holly says referring to all the junk they had left behind in LA although they had packed almost all of it anyway.
"Leave it… Mark will pick it up and probably sell it anyway." Jodie says. Mark was their landlord in LA. He had been wanting to evict them from their small apartment for ages. He wasn't fond of young people.
"So I guess we stay!" Holly says assured.
"Alright to my house!" Alex says, ready for a fun night!
"What?" Amy says again in a small "nobody listens to me" kind of voice that made Summer smile.
"Oh come on… it'll be fun!" Summer says pulling Amy by the hand out side following the lead of Jodie, Alex and Marissa and Holly and Tara.
Seth watches Tara walk out of the club on the arm of Holly and frowns; he really enjoyed the company of Tara and was hoping to ask her out but it looked like he'd have another girl that was just a friend.
"So how do we work out the vehicles?" Jodie asks when they are all outside. Summer, taking advantage of the situation to be alone with Amy, quickly comes up with a plan.
"Well Alex can take her Jeep and go with Marissa and Jodie, Holly and Tara can follow behind in Jodie's car since they don't know where to go and like I'll take Marissa's car and follow behind with Amy, right? That works"
"Yea that definitely works" Marissa says instantly catching onto Summer's plan. "Here's my keys Summ" Marissa adds throwing the keys at Summer before there were any objection which there wasn't.
"I'm gonna stop at my house to grab the alcohol that's there!" Summer says, again buying more time with Amy. She was determined to tell her how she felt about her before the night was over.
"So a job?" Marissa asked breaking the silence between Alex and her. She had to do something to improve their communication.
"yep… manager!" Alex said happily but keeping her eyes ahead of her on the road.
"That's gre—" Marissa says but is cut off by Alex.
"Marissa…" Alex begins taking her eyes off the road momentarily to look at the beauty next to her. "I like you a lot" she continues. "And… I hope/ think… you like me too—" She still continues only to be cut off by Marissa.
"As if the thing in the office wasn't enough to assure you that I like you too." Marissa says making Alex smile.
"I know" Alex corrects herself "you like me too" she continues "and I know we haven't know each other really long but it feels like I've known you forever… so like what I'm trying to say is… Marissa Copper… will you be my girlfriend?" Alex says almost nervously. Amy would die laughing if she had saw "the Alex 'Badass' Kelly" nervous.
"Yes... of course… totally!" Marissa says smiling.
"Yes?" Alex asks as if she had heard wrong.
"Yes!" Marissa confirms.
OMG! You have a girlfriend Coop! A beautiful, talented, smart, kind… perfect girlfriend! Marissa thought to herself staring at the gorgeous smiling blonde sitting next to her.
--------------------------------------------
"You were amazing tonight and you look…" Summer pauses trying to find the words to describe Amy's casual yet stunning attire. "…amazing…" Summer says, mentally beating herself up for the lameness of the comment.
"I wish I could use the word amazing to describe you princessa but you're much more complicated than that… You're strange yet so beautiful… you're delicate and gentle yet sturdy and passionate. You're flawed yet perfect in imperfection! You're a masterpiece; an epitome of heaven itself." Amy finishes. Summer usually hated being outdone but not by Amy. She'd let Amy outdo her anytime. Amy's tone of voice was assured and confident; the mix of her tone and words almost bringing a tear of joy to Summer's eye. Of course, people in the past had said similar things to Summer but they usually didn't phase her yet she could almost feel in her heart and soul that Amy really meant what she said.
Not ready to admit how much Amy's comment had touched her, Summer took a playful tone.
"You calling me strange?" Summer said playfully chuckling, giving Amy a quick swat on the arm.
"Hey, hey, hey, hands on the wheel princessa!" Amy said also playfully.
"We haven't been moving for like 2 minutes loser!" Summer says laughing hysterically. Amy looks outside the window and they were indeed already at Summer's house.
"I knew that" Amy says chuckling at her silliness.
"Come" Summer says, calming down and taking the keys out of the ignition.
"I'll stay in the car!" Amy says.
"No… you most certainly will not! I will not leave you here to get kidnapped!" Summer says almost as if speaking to a child.
"Yes ma'am!" Amy says playfully saluting her crush. Summer giggles at the girl's playfulness and couldn't help but wonder if she was that playful in bed. Summer opened the door to her house and went inside followed by Amy.
"Sit" Summer commanded to Amy, almost as if she were talking to an untrained puppy. Amy found it sexy when Summer got dominant with her and sat almost immediately as the command left her crush's mouth. Summer smiled internally when she saw Amy sit. Amy reminded her greatly of a puppy and Summer had a real soft spot for puppies. She once had a puppy but it ran away and she didn't want Amy to run away.
Summer quickly raided the refrigerator and the closet for all the alcohol she could find and threw it in a paper bag. In her rush to get back to Amy she tripped over herself and landed right on Amy's lap in the sofa.
"Good catch" Summer says smiling at Amy who had her hands fastened around Summer's waist.
"Well…eh...I used to play softball!" Amy says also smiling but not releasing her grip on Summer's waist. Summer couldn't help but examine Amy's seemingly flawless face. Summer's eyes studied the depths of Amy's blue eyes, the curves of her cheek-bones and her lips. The lips that Summer so badly wanted to kiss. They both sat there in silence waiting for the other to make a move.
Summer couldn't help but think back to when she was little with her little mermaid VHS singing along to the song "kiss the girl". She couldn't help but go over the lyrics in her mind.
There you see her
Sitting there across the way
She don't got a lot to say
But there's something about her
And you don't know why
But you're dying to try
You wanna kiss the girl
Yes,
you want her
Look at her, you know you do
It's possible she
wants you, too
There is one way to ask her
It don't take a
word
Not a single word
Go on and kiss the girl
Sha-la-la-la-la-la
My, oh, my
Look at the boy too shy
He ain't gonna kiss
the girl
Sha-la-la-la-la-la
Ain't that sad
Ain't it
shame, too bad
You gonna miss the girl
Now's your
moment
Floating in a blue lagoon
Boy, you better do it soon
No time will be better
She don't say a word
And she
won't say a word
Until you kiss the girl
Sha-la-la-la-la-la
Don't be scared
You got the mood prepared
Go on and
kiss the girl
Sha-la-la-la-la-la
Don't stop now
Don't
try to hide it how
You wanna kiss the girl
Sha-la-la-la-la-la
Float along
Listen to the song
The song say kiss the girl
Sha-la-la-la-la-la
Music play
Do what the music say
You
wanna kiss the girl
You've got to kiss the girl
Why
don't you kiss the girl
You gotta kiss the girl
Go on and
kiss the girl
There was no way Summer was going to miss the her chance.
TBC…
