Can't Fight This Feeling
News spread fast of the new relationship between Sean and Lil. They were easily the newest most popular couple throughout the whole school. Bumping Tommy and Melissa out of the top spot, which in turn drove Melissa crazy. Tommy on the other hand was about ready to break things off with Melissa all she did was make him wait and be her arm candy, he didn't like that at all, luckily he still had some action on the side. But he wanted Lil and now he couldn't even have her.
They were in Defense class today all dressed up in work out clothes to try out their new moves. They were taught the moves throughout the week and on Mondays and Fridays they would put them into action. So far the partnership had been same sex only. But today their teacher wanted them to try something different.
Mr. Thomas stood up at the front of the class and called off the people that would be partners. He went through the list and when he got to Tommy's name Tommy tried to listen but his eyes were focused on Lil.
"Mr. Pickles did you hear me" Tommy looked over at the teacher and shook his head; the teacher sighed and repeated himself. "I said Mr. Pickles that you will be paired up with Miss Deville on Friday to show us a demonstration of what you both have learned. So prepare for it, as for now you can spar with your regular partners." Said Mr. T finishing up. Tommy smirked over at Lil who returned it; finally he'd have his chance to be close to her.
A couple of days had gone by and Chuckie was starting to get worried. Nicole hadn't been writing him at all and he'd sent her about three or four letters a week. His friends told him not to worry too much about it but he couldn't help but wonder if something was really wrong.
He and Angelica were finishing up their project when they saw Lil and Sean come into the library holding hands and laughing.
"It doesn't bother you?" he asked her. Angelica looked up and saw what he was referring too.
"Sean and Lil, no, I mean what Sean and I had was great but it wasn't meant to last." She said sighing. "Sometimes things just have to end and there's nothing wrong with that, it just means that there's something better out there waiting for you." She finished smiling at him. He returned it. She knew all about his Nicole issues, she hoped things would work out for the best.
"So how come you're not dating anyone?" he asked.
"Whoa Finster personal much?" she asked taken aback by his forwardness.
"Sorry just wondering" he asked "Normally you have guys lining up to date you and from the looks those boys over there are giving you it seems that, that hasn't changed much, so what gives" he asked.
Angelica shrugged "I don't know, Sean and I were together for like a year and half maybe I just need a break you know" she said. Chuckie nodded.
"Now enough about this relationship crap, we need to pick baby names" she said "And we're not naming them after your father." She said.
"But Chaz is such a cool name" he said smirking.
"Not for my kid" she said smirking as well.
Suzie was in the common room area using the phone to talk to her boyfriend Darryl.
"Hey babe I miss you," he said. She smiled.
"I miss you too, how's school?" she asked. Darryl although he was just a freshman already picked out his major. He was premed and wanted to be a brain surgeon Suzie was going to go to college for the same thing next year.
"It's awesome babe, you're going to love college," he said. Then he started going on and on about how cool his classes and his dorm were but Suzie wasn't paying attention. She was thinking about what Justin had said.
They had a rocky relationship start to finish. He was just never serious about anything and she was very serious about everything. But somehow they brought out the best in each other. They were together for about two and a half years and when they broke up she got right with Darryl because it felt like the safe thing to do, and in a way it was.
She didn't want Darryl to be able to get too close to her and hurt her like Justin had, with Darryl being away at college that allowed them the space she needed to keep her guard up and Darryl didn't seem to mind.
"Babe are you listening," he asked.
"Huh, yeah, sorry I just have a lot on my mind, and I'm feeling a little stressed out" she said.
"Ah no worries babe I know you got a lot on your plate, but I got some good news," he said.
"What's that?"
"I get a fall break coming up the second week of October, It'll be for three to four days and I'll get to come up and see you" he said "Isn't that great babe"
"Yeah that's awesome," she said with the best sweet voice she could muster.
"Well I gotta go get to class, I'll talk to you later alright"
"Yeah talk to you later" she said hanging up. Shit what was she going to do.
Friday arrived and Tommy was ready he and Lil were going last today and he was excited. Lil didn't seem as over enthusiastic as he did but she did practice for this a lot.
After Kimi and her partner got finished the teacher called Lil and Tommy to the middle of the floor.
"Alright you two I want a good clean match, and remember two taps means surrender, ok" Tommy and Lil nodded. "Alright shake hands." They shook and got back into their fighting stance. "Begin" he said.
The class stood back in a circle giving them plenty of space as they circled each other.
"I know you've been waiting for this day haven't you Lil?"
"What day smart ass" she asked ready to strike him.
"The day you get to get your hands on me" he said. Lil smirked at him.
"Not really"
"I mean if you wanted any type of physical contact you can just ask," he said smirking even harder.
"You wish Pickles"
"No babe you wish and your wish is my command," he said lunging at her. Lil easily dodged his attack and put him in a headlock.
"Well Pickles now you have to tell me, how does it feel having your ass beat by a girl?" she asked sarcastically.
"You'll have to ask Kimi's partner that one babe" he said as he wrapped his arm around her waist, lifted her off her feet and she fell on the ground with him on top. "Ready to tap out" he asked his face within an inch of hers.
"Never" she said rolling them over so that she was on top. She put his arms above his head and he couldn't move them.
"I love a girl to be on top," Lil laughed
"You're such a douche," she said.
"Maybe, but this douche is about to kick your ass." He said as he wrapped his legs around her waist. He maneuvered them so that he was now on top but had her right leg on his shoulder.
"I didn't know you were so flexible" he said licking his lips thinking of the possibilities.
"There's a lot of things you don't know about me," she said trying to move but failing miserably.
"Really, well I plan on finding those out" he said as the bell rang indicating the end of the class period.
"Alright good match guys" the teacher said as they got off of each other. "We'll pick this up next class period" Tommy looked over at Lil.
"Till next time" said Lil
"I'll be waiting," he said smiling as he walked out of class.
