The next morning I woke up before anyone else in my room and decided we should get a head start. I quickly and quietly changed and tiptoed my way down to Jerome's room. From the sound of it, everyone but me was still sleeping, including Jerome. I quietly turned the knob to his and Alfie's door and pushed it open a crack. It was dark inside and I could see Jerome sleeping peacefully…not for long. I tiptoed over to his bed and sat on the edge and lightly shook him whispering in his ear, "Jerome wake up."
He started to stir and opened his eyes blurrily. He wiped the sleep from his eyes as they landed on me and his gorgeous face broke into a huge smile. "Wanted to get started early?" he asked with a smirk and a wink.
"I just thought-," I was cut off by Jerome pulling me down to his lips and I was lost once again. This wasn't how I planned on this going, but it was a welcome surprise. As we continued to kiss Jerome pulled me on top of him and I let out a small moan. I was kissing Jerome Clarke in his bed! Our tongues continued to dance together for a good fifteen minutes before I pushed away when I heard Alfie roll over in his bed. "We need to stop," I whispered.
"Don't worry, Alfie can sleep through anything," Jerome smirked suggestively.
"That's not what I'm talking about," I mumbled.
"Okay then good," Jerome pulled me back down to his warm lips. It was so hard to push away this time because every inch of my body was telling me not to.
"We need to get downstairs before anyone else if we plan on surprising them," I whispered in his ear.
"I'm quite comfortable right here Trix," Jerome tried to pull me down again.
"Let's go Slimeball," I snapped quietly with a wink as I slid off of him. If he wasn't going to listen to me now, I would just have to resort back to my old ways.
"Fine I'm coming," Jerome muttered as he pulled his covers back and slid out of bed, revealing that he had on a pair of boxers and nothing else. I wasn't expecting this. Jerome was standing there with barely anything on and I couldn't help but gawk at his perfectly toned and chiseled abs and his muscled arms. Who would have guess Jerome was hiding all of that under there? Suddenly I regretted making him get out of bed…maybe I should have just given in.
"Take a picture it will last longer," Jerome said with a smirk as he caught me gawking.
I shook my head and pulled away from my fantasy. "Get dressed and meet me in the common room," I ordered walking quickly out of the room before I did something I regretted.
Five minutes later Jerome was walking into the common room fully clothed as I heard people start to stir up above. "So what's next?" he asked as he took a seat on the couch next to me.
"I think the kitchen when Trudy comes down to cook breakfast and I can almost guarantee that Mick will be with her so we'll be killing two bird with one stone," I smiled.
"Fine by me," Jerome smirked again.
"That will leave only Nina, Fabian, and Mara left," I said.
"What about Joy?" Jerome asked.
"Do you think she's involved?" I asked, I wasn't so sure.
"Just because she's you best friend doesn't mean she isn't involved. I know Alfie is and he's my best mate," Jerome rationalized.
"I know that, but I wasn't sure if Joy had been too busy drooling over Fabian to help and after all she did tell us who it was," I reasoned.
"I say we're better safe than sorry," Jerome smirked.
"So you get to kiss me another time?" I asked with a knowing smile.
"Is that such a problem?" Jerome slid closer.
"Not at all," I whispered as he moved in. He kissed me once before I backed away. "Oh come on Trix," Jerome complained.
"Someone's coming," I said as I heard someone mount the stairs. "Quick to the kitchen," I grabbed Jerome's hand and pulled him off with me. When we got to the kitchen I jumped up so I was sitting on the counter and pulled Jerome closer by his shirt.
"Mmm…" Jerome let out a low sound that sounds slightly like a growl as he crashed his lips to mine. We kissed as we heard two pairs of footsteps coming down the hallway toward where we were. I instinctively wrapped my legs around Jerome's waist, pulling him closer as the footsteps and voices grew louder.
"Trudy…" Mick was saying as they stepped into the kitchen and flipped on the lights to find us in a tight embrace.
"Oh my!" Trudy gasped as she caught sight of us.
I pulled back from Jerome and looked at Trudy and Mick standing speechless in the doorway. "Sorry to interrupt," Trudy said. "But I need to get breakfast started."
"Sorry Trudy," I smiled sweetly. "We didn't think anyone was up yet," I said as I slid off the counter and grabbed Jerome's hand pulling him off into the common room leaving Trudy and Mick staring after us in shock. Five down four to go.
