Chapter 55

"Are they sleeping?" Jenna asked quietly as she leaned against the wall in Cody's bedroom. He nodded as he took her all in; she still took his breath away. He knew that what him and Jenna were about to do wasn't right. She had promised to marry someone else; Cody was out of second chances. He took a step towards her and tentatively lifted his hand to stroke her cheek. "Jenna…." he whispered. "Do you mean it? Do you mean it when you say that you can't stop loving me?"

There's a time and place for everything, for everyone We can push with all our might, but nothin's gonna come Oh no, nothin's gonna change And if I asked you not to try Oh could you let it be I wanna hold you and say We can't throw this all away Tell me you won't go, you won't go Do you have to hear me say

Jenna nodded. "I can't stop. I don't know how…." she said softly as she refused to look at him right now. The girls had gone to lay down for a nap, leaving her and Cody alone for at least two hours. "Look at me," he mumbled as he continued to stroke her cheek. "Please, Jen….."

She lifted her face up to his and saw him. The boy she had fallen in love with so long ago. "This isn't right….." she mumbled.

"I know. But we just….we just have to go with it. It feels right…." he whispered back as his hand moved from her cheek, down her neck and slowly and softly stroked the soft skin on her sternum. Moving his hand other hand up to her face, he leaned in and kissed her very gently on the lips, giving her another opportunity to put an end to this. Whatever this was.

I can't stop lovin' you And no matter what I say or do You know my heart is true, oh I can't stop loving you

Cody's hands wandered down to the hem of her tank top and swallowed the lump in his throat as he lifted her shirt off of her and tossed it on the floor. He felt his heart rate pick up when he took her all in again. Hesitantly, his hands went behind her back as he tried to unhook her light pink bra. She shivered in his arms as he removed it from her shoulders and dropped it on the floor. With trembling fingertips, he traced lazy circles from her sternum, down to her full breasts, stopping briefly to gently tease her already erect nipples. She let out a little whimper when he touched her. "Shhhh…." he whispered. "I'll never hurt you again, Jen. I promise," he whispered as he bent his head down and captured one of her aching points in his mouth. She let out a soft groan and started to run her fingers through his dark hair, pulling him closer to her.

"Cody…." she whimpered as he brought his face back up to hers. He tilted his head to the side and waited for her to continue. Her hands left his hair and went to the hem of his t-shirt, quickly pulling it over his head and discarding it on the floor. "I want you….." she whispered as she traced his abdominal muscles with her soft fingertips.

Cody took the hint and started to unbutton her jeans. With fumbling fingers, he finally got them unbuttoned and unzipped. He watched with lust filled eyes as she slid them down her long legs and stepped out of them, leaving her in front of him in just her panties. "You're so beautiful, Jenna Kay," he whispered as he took her hand and led her over to his bed. He gently laid her down and slowly took off his jeans and discarded them.

You change your friends, your place in life You can change your mind, we can change the way we say And do anytime Oh no, but I think you'll find That when you look inside your heart Oh baby, I'll be there, yeah

He crawled on top of her, his hands traveling down her sides and his fingers hooked inside her delicate panties, very slowly her slid them down her legs and dropped them on the floor. He bit his bottom lip and closed his eyes. Was this really happening right now?

"Cody?" she murmured, bringing him back to reality. She stroked the hair on the back of his head and pulled him down for a kiss. His tongue poked her lips, asking for entrance, and she gladly obliged as her hands wandered from the back of his head, down his smooth back and finally to the waistband of his boxer shorts, sliding them off slowly and letting his hard member free. "Make love to me…." she mumbled as she started placing soft kisses along his strong jawline. "I love you…..I don't care if this is wrong right now, I need to feel you…..show me that you still love me…." she trailed off as she took one of his hands and slowly moved it over to her center, encouraging him to go inside her. "Jenna," he mumbled into her neck as his blunt fingers found what he was looking for; she involuntarily bucked her hips at him suddenly when he found her sensitive bundle of nerves. She cried out softly as he continued to slide his two fingers in and out of her and his thumb kept running over her womanly pearl slowly.

He withdrew his fingers from her depths and brought them to his mouth, licking her off of his fingers, he smiled down at her. He leaned down and kissed her deeply so she could taste herself on his lips. While he was deepening the kiss, he flipped them over so she was on top of him. Letting her take control, he placed his hands on her breasts as she slowly lowered herself onto his throbbing member. He let out a hiss of pleasure when he felt her take him all in at once. They stayed like that for a few seconds before he put his hands on her hips and she started moving up and down. She closed her eyes and threw her head back; enjoying the pleasure she was giving herself right now while Cody looked up at her and smiled.

Hold on I'm holding on Baby, just come on, come on, come on I just wanna hear you say I can't stop lovin' you And no matter what you say or do You know my heart is true, oh I can't stop lovin' you

Randy cancelled his media appearance for the next day and caught the first flight he could find back to Atlanta. After he had made Mandy promise not to tell her mother that he had called, he promptly punched a huge hole in the hotel wall and cussed Cody Runnels out. "Son of a bitch," he kept mumbling to himself as he drove back to the airport.

He made it back to Atlanta in record time. He was going straight to their apartment, for Jenna's sake, she had better hope that she was home. He would wait for her if she wasn't; she had some major explaining to do. He nervously hoped that the little girl had seen it all wrong and that his beautiful fiancé wasn't actually kissing her ex-husband. Somehow, however, Randy didn't think he was going to get that lucky.

Oh, I'm so twisted and tied And all I remember Was how hard we tried Only to surrender And when it's over I know how it's gonna be And true love will never die No, not fade away

He frowned when he saw that her car wasn't in the parking lot. With a bad feeling in the pit of his stomach, he grabbed his duffel bag out of the backseat and headed inside. He would just wait for her to get back from her lover and confront her then.
