I awoke to find myself in a bed with lots of faces looking at me. I tried to clear my head so I could comprehend better. I finally succeeded and mnaaged to recognize the faces. There was Jack, Caleb, Scandal, I think it was Skittery, some girl that I had seen before I blacked out hanging on Skittery's shoulder, Eyes, Blink with no shirt (AN: go Chelci!) Race, and Boots. Wow, I'm better at names then I thought I was. My eyes fell on Scandal.
"Damn you hit hard," I said to Scandal while rubbing my head. Ow. Pain.
Scandal blushed slightly. Wow, emotions. "Umm, yah sorry about that. I was…..err….mistaken," he stumbled over the words.
"Nah," said the girl on Skittery's shoulder. "It was my fault. I was visiting Queens for some strange reason and I was suppose to keep a leash on this one here," said the girl, ruffling Scandal's hair. He blushed again. Geez. More emotions then most guys I know. "Hi, the name's Fearless," she said, extending her hand to me I looked at it, then I looked at her.
"Sufficiently named," said Skittery. Hmmm…..big words compensate for something. I studied the girl. She was rather short-ish. She had red hair and green eyes. She was fair skinned and had a big smile. I slowly took her hand.
"AJ," I said softly. I was still taking it all in. I looked at Scandal. Now that he wasn't beating the shit out of me, he was kind of, ok pretty, ok really hot. He was tall and very well built. He looked to be about 17 or 18 and had very light brown hair and chocolate brown eyes. Big and beautiful. His eyes, not him. Well, he is too. He was tan and had a very cute shy smile. I smiled at him and he smiled back. I hadn't even realized that Eyes was trying to talk to me until she yelled in my ear.
"Hullo!? Earth to AJ?!" I blushed slightly, and she shook her head. "What I was saying while you were on Planet Hot Guy," I blushed even more, "Was that you need a nickname. Everyone look at her and think of a word to describe her. Wow I'm smart. I'll go first…hmm…. Sarcastic," she said.
"C'mon Eyes that sucks," said Blink playfully. She slapped him on the arm and he stuck his tongue out at her and she…..nah….you don't want to hear that. Ok, fine, she licked it. There, I thought it.
"Ok guys. Geez. You can stop that now," Race said. We were all getting grossed out. Finally they catered to our wishes. "Ok, I'll go next….geez girl. I've known you for what? A day? And I already know that you are to much for words," he smirked. I laughed at him, then smiled at Scandal again. He smiled back and I lost my train of thought. Again.
Then I remembered something. "Hey guys, where's Spot?" I asked curiously.
"I'm right here babe," I let out an aggravated noise. Does this kid ever give up?
"Hi Spot. Did I save you from sure death?" I laughed.
"Umm….I coulda taken him," Spot said, pouting.
"Yeah, ok, I'm sure. Newsflash: he beat the hell outta me, so I'm sure you weren't doing to good," I said.
"Geez, I said I was sorry," Scandal blushed. I smiled at him and he smiled back. I was in my own little world and liking it very much. His eyes were so brown and very fascinating. He was VERY cute. And very nice.
"EARTH TO THE SICKENINGLY HAPPPY PEOPLE STARING INTO EACH OTHER'S EYES," Eyes yelled into my ear. I snapped out of it and blushed some more. To much blushing for one night.
"Now that's enough of that. Can I jus get some sleep?" I asked, trying to hide my blushing. Eyes smiled at me knowingly.
"Wait," said the new girl, Fearless, "Can I talk to you a little before you go to sleep?" she asked.
"Ummm….sure," I said, trying to sit up. I noticed Spot staring at me. It was getting a little unnerving.
"Look, I'm really sorry that you got beat the hell out of by Scandal. He was a little upset, and I guess Spot sort of provoked him, and you got in the way, but I think he's sort of taken a liking to you," she smiled.
"As I said before, it's ok, and you really think so? He's really cute," I laughed quietly.
"Yah, and he is very cute. To bad he's one of my good friends. And I'm with Skittery. I'll see what I can do for the two of you," her eyes sparkled. I smiled and blushed again. Damn that was getting annoying. Curse my cheeks.
*~*The Next Morning*~*
~3rd person POV for a short time
Kloppman harassed them awake as early as usually. As they rubbed the sleep out of their eyes, the happy morning person, Fearless, bounced over to Scandal. "Mornin' Sunshine. How's it rollin?"
"It's doing just fine, but ya shouldn't be askin me stuff like that. It's a lil gross," Scandal smiled.
Fearless gave him a confused look for a second while a couple of guys around them snickered. "Oh….ewww…..Scandal, you KNOW that's not what I meant," she mock pouted. As usual, she was the last one to get the joke.
"A little slow this morning? Oh wait, I forgot, it really isn't anything new," said someone. Fearless thought for a second.
"Hey, Skittery, you know I should soak you for that comment, but your so cute I wouldn't want to ruin that perfect face," she said, playfully slapping his cheek. (AN: notice I didn't tell you which kind of cheek? Hehe ok that was my strange moment for the minute) She made her way over to Scandal and took the sink beside him. AJ watched in the background. "So Scandal, what do you think of AJ?"
"Like 'er. She's really hot (AN: did they even use hot back then? Lol in my story they did) and she's nice, and she kept smiling at me," she said while washing his face.
"I think you should ask her out. I think she likes you. You two are so cute together," Fearless smiled as she walked away. That was her good deed for the day.
~Back to AJ's POV
I finished washing up and went to get dressed. Luckily one of the girls, I think it was Starstruck, was my exact size, so I borrowed some of her clothes. I ended up with a pair of black what looked like capris. OK maybe I'm not her size, they were a little tight. I had on a light blue undershirt and a gray shirt over top, half buttoned. I kind of like this look on me. I twisted my hair up on top of my head but I couldn't find my hat. Damn. That sucks. I shrugged and ran out of the lodging house with everyone else.
We were on our way to the distribution center when Scandal came up beside me. I smiled at him and he smile back. Oh gosh not this again. Stop smiling AJ, stop smiling.
"Why? You have a pretty smile," said Scandal. Damn. I didn't know I was talking out loud. "Ummm……you look good today," he said.
"Ummm….thanks," I said curious about what exactly he was getting at. He smiled again. Oh no AJ, you better not smile. Damn. To late.
We got in line at the DC (distribution center) somewhere near to the middle. I ended up next to Scandal again.
"So AJ, I know I haven't known you very long at all, and we didn't really get off on the right foot, but umm…….." he trailed off. "I think I fell in love with your smile." then he looked down at his shoes. My heart melted. Any doubts I had about this guy before just washed away. I put my finger under his chin and raised it up so he was looking me in the face. His innocent eyes looked into mine. He leaned in and we kissed. The one thought that entered my mind while his tongue ran along the edge of my teeth (AN: what? It feels really cool!) was "Damn he's a great kisser."
When we finally broke apart, I heard what had been going on around us. Eyes was yelling at the top of her lungs, "OwwOwwww! Go AJ!" and various other catcalls. Fearless was standing there with satisfied look on her face, and Spot was glaring. Damn what is that kid's problem? I aim to find out. But not now. Now I'm happy.
AN: What'd ya think? Huh? I wanna know! It's finally turning to the romantic side! YAY! Isn't he adorable? Love that guy! And he is damn hot! Since I didn't put these in the beginning here's the SOs:
Chelci- I know, I like the story too……you know I get some…..stuff in this story too, I just haven't got there yet. Lol. Hehe just read some more.
Feisty- there I got you into my story! Yay! lol
"Damn you hit hard," I said to Scandal while rubbing my head. Ow. Pain.
Scandal blushed slightly. Wow, emotions. "Umm, yah sorry about that. I was…..err….mistaken," he stumbled over the words.
"Nah," said the girl on Skittery's shoulder. "It was my fault. I was visiting Queens for some strange reason and I was suppose to keep a leash on this one here," said the girl, ruffling Scandal's hair. He blushed again. Geez. More emotions then most guys I know.
