~Chapter Twenty~

~Jade's POV~

Things between Kendall and I were kind of at a standstill. It didn't help that we both had been busy and working a lot. I have hardly seen him for the last two days. The only time I really got to see him, is when he got home and passed out in bed. I really just wanted things to go back to the way they use to be.

"Hello Love." Kendall wrapped his arms around my waist.

"Hey, Lover." I turned in his arms and wrapped my arms around his neck. "What are you doing home?"

"We got out early so I thought I'd come home and spend some time with you."

"What did you have in mind?" I grinned up at him.

"How about you go take a nice hot bath and maybe if you ask nicely maybe I'll join you."

"Oh yeah, and what about our wonderful daughter?"

"Her wonderful uncles took pity on my and took her to the zoo." He grinned at me.

"Oh and how did you manage that one?"

"Gracie gave James and Carlos the puppy dog face until they caved." He laughed. "And you Logan said yes right away."

"That sounds like my Baby." I laughed.

"She learned from you, didn't she?"

"Maybe." I grinned at him. "So now that we have the house to ourselves, what are we going to do?"

"I'll race you up stairs."

"I don't think so." I pulled his head down and kissed him.

He pulled away from me and smiled.

"What do you want to do?"

"I have a thing or two in mind." I backed up until I hit the counter. I jumped up on the counter and wiggled my eyebrows at him.

"Really, right here in the kitchen?" He walked closer to me.

"You're gonna tell me you've never thought about it?" I raised an eye brow at him. "Come on live a little. No one's gonna walk in on us."

"How do you know that?" He put his hand on either side of my hips.

"Well, Logan, Carlos and James are at the zoo with Gracie. Cassie is at practice with Allie." I hooked my ankles around his back. "So that means we're alone. All alone." I pulled his closer with my legs. "Kiss me."

He bent his head and kissed me softly, barely touching his lips to mine. I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him hard.

He pulled away and looked down at me with hooded eyes.

"You are so dangerous to me."

"I could say the same thing about you. You're my world, and if I ever lost you, I don't know what I would do." I cupped his face. "I never thought I would find love again, until I meet you. I still remember the first time I saw you. I wanted to jump you so bad and I would have if I hadn't been so scared to lose my heart to you." I dropped my hands and picked up one of his and held it over my heart. "But in the end you showed me that I still could love and you've won my heart. No matter what happens between us, I will always love you. You have my heart and soul. You really do mean everything to me." He cupped my face. "I know I never say it enough, but I love you so much."

He didn't say anything he just kissed me. I wrapped my arms around his neck pulling him as close as I could. I pulled away slightly and bit his lip before I kissed him again. He pulled away and pulled his shirt over his head and tossed it behind him. I groaned as I ran my hands up and down his chest.

"Like what you see?"

"You know how much I like what I see." I ran my finger along the top of his pants. "You are sexy as hell."

"So are you, my Love." He pulled on the hem of my tank top. "I don't know how I got so lucky to find someone as beautiful as you. Inside and out."

"You are amazing."

"Not as amazing as you are." He grinned at me.

"We're both pretty amazing, aren't we?"

He laughed and kissed me again.

"I'm never eating in this kitchen again."

I pulled away from Kendall and turned to a very red faced Shane standing in the doorway of the kitchen. I looked back at Kendall sheepishly.

"We're not going to be interrupted huh?"

"I love you." I grinned at him.

"Did you need something Shane?" Kendall looked up at Shane.

"Yeah, Allie sent me to get the papers the dancers need to sign."

"Right." Kendall stepped away from me so I could jump down. "Shane why don't you head to my office and I'll be right there." He nodded and headed down the hall to my office. "And you, why don't you go start a bath for us."

"Okay, hurry." He grinned at me and headed up stairs.

I shook my head and headed to the office. Shane was sitting on the couch waiting for me. I walked over to my desk and grabbed a folder and handed it to him.

"I really didn't believe Dad when he told me you and Kendall were back together."

"You're still no mad at him are you?"

"He hurt you bad."

"It was both of us." I sighed and sat next to him. "He's young and was scared and I kept letting my past rule my world. We both made mistakes."

"And if he does it again."

"Hopefully that won't happen."

"If you say so, but if he hurts you again, I will kick his ass. Nothing you can do will stop me this time."

"I know." I stood up. "Come on, I'll walk you out."

"Do I even want to know?"

"No, no you don't." I giggled.

"Right." He laughed.

I rolled my eyes and walked out of the office. He followed behind me.

When we got to the front door, I opened the door for him. He stopped and looked at me.

"I'll see you tonight then?"

"What's going on tonight?"

"Uh, right I gotta go." He ran to his car and got in and drove away.

I shrugged and shut the door. I locked it before I headed up stairs.

Kendall was sitting on the edge of the bathtub waiting for me. A slow smile crossed my face as I crossed the room to him. I ran my fingers through his hair and tipped his back so I could kiss him.

"What's that for?" He pulled me onto his lap.

"I love you."

"I love you too."

"Mmm, what do you say we get in this wonderful bath you've made for us?"

"That sounds good." He smiled at me.


A few hours later I woke up alone in bed. I stretched my arm over my head and popped my back before I rolled out of bed. I walked into the bathroom, when I was done I pulled on my robe and headed down stairs.

The girls were sitting in the living room talking. They all stopped and looked at me when they saw me.

"What are you guys doing here and where is Kendall?" They just looked at each other then back at me. "What did you do with my husband?"

"The boys kidnapped him."

"Why?"

"Because we told them too."

"Why?"

"Jade, Babe you sound like Gracie."

"Bite me." I stuck my tongue at them.

"So what are you wearing under that skimp robe you have on?"

"Wouldn't you like to know?" I raised an eyebrow at Allie.

"It's not like I haven't seen it all before." Allie rolled her eyes.

"Once again bite me." I rolled my eyes and walked into the kitchen.

God damn, I was hoping to come down here and find Kendall and maybe go another few rounds. Damn my friends for dashing that hope.

"I hope you're not too mad at us." Alexa walked into the kitchen behind me.

"No, but maybe I should go put some clothes on."

"I wouldn't bother."

"Why the hell not?"

"I just wouldn't."

"What do you three have planned?"

"Nothing." She grinned at me as I glared at her. "Really Jade, we're not up to anything."

"Bull shit!" She giggled. "I know better than that. What the hell is going on?"

"She's not going to tell you, so you should just stop." Allie walked into the kitchen. "Come on, up stairs we go."

"Oh Hell to the Fuck no."

"Yeah, you don't have much of a choice."

"Why?"

"Because we said so, and you won't hurt any of us." Allie grinned at me.

"No not going to happen, whatever you have planed."

"Jade, please don't fight us on this. We are doing this because Kendall asked us to."

"No he didn't." I crossed my arms over my chest. "He would have told me."

"It's a surprise." Alexa sighed.

"I hate surprises."

"We know you do, Love, but get over it."

"I hate you guys."

"No you don't. You know you love us."

I just glared at her.

"I can and will carry your ass up stairs."

"I hate you."

"No you don't, now upstairs."

"Fine." I walked past her and up the stairs.

When I got to my room, I found Cassie sitting in the arm chair next to the window.

"About damn time, took you long enough. I have the shower running. Get it and get clean."

I just crossed my arms over my chest and raised an eyebrow at her.

"Now Jade."

"No."

"Yes."

"No."

"Yes."

"No."

"Stop being such a drama queen, and get in the damn shower."

"No."

"Allie, she's being difficult." Cassie rolled her eyes. "I told you she would be."

"What's going on?"

"It's a surprise." Allie rolled her eyes.

"I hate surprises."

"Noted and filed. Now get your ass in the shower."

"I want to talk to Kendall."

"No."

"I want to talk to my husband."

"Just let her call Kendall." Alexa laughed.

"Fine." Cassie tossed me my phone.

I caught it and went into the bathroom, shutting and locking the door behind me.

I hit Kendall's name and sat on the edge of the tub. He answered after the first few rings.

"How much trouble am I in?"

"None, if you tell me what the fuck is going on."

"You're swearing, that's never good."

"Just tell me why they are here?"

"I can't tell you it's a surprise."

"I hate surprises."

"I know you do Baby, but please, for me, play nice and do what they ask."

"What do I get if I do?"

"What do you want?"

"That's a loaded question."

"Think about it and when you know you can cash it in, if you play nice."

"You're so lucky I love you."

"I love you too, now I have to go. I will see you soon, okay?"

"Fine." I pouted.

"No pouting. It won't be that bad, I promise."

"How do you know?"

"I just do."

"Fine, I have to get in the shower before they break the door down."

"You really had to give me that image didn't you?"

"I could send a picture if you would like."

"No that's okay. I will get you back for this."

"Mmm, can't wait."

"I love you, but you're mean."

"To bad you're not here to punish me."

"God Jade." He groaned.

"Bye Love." I hung up on him and set my phone on the counter top, next to what I was assuming was my underwear for the night.

Kendall was going to have a heart attack when he saw what I was wearing under whatever they put me in.

When I was done showering, I put the underwear set on and then threw my rode back on. I walked out of the bathroom to see them holding up a black dress. It was your everyday normal, short as hell little black dress.

"There is no way in Hell, I am wearing that."

"Just try it on, and if you don't like it, we have another one you can try on."

"Fine, give me the dress."

Allie grinned and handed me the dress. I laid it on the end of my bed and dropped my robe. I unzipped the dress and picked it up so I could step into it.

"Zip me up."

Alexa stepped up behind me and zipped up the dress. I walked into the bathroom to look in the full length mirror. God I felt like I was going to spill out of my dress. My girls were too big for a dress like this.

"I'm so gonna fall out of this damn dress."

"No, you won't you'll be fine."

"My girls are really to big for this dress."

"She's just pissed 'cause she's showing to much skin." Cassie shrugged. "Jade, Kendall won't be able to keep his hands off of you."

I glared at her in the mirror. She just grinned at me.

"Hair and make-up time."

"Fuck." I muttered.
