Summary: Jessica is new to St. Robs and she changes Jeff Hardy's lifestyle by capturing his heart.

RECAP: Jess has girls talking to her... about Jeff that is. She sort of left her old friends. And now Jeff is trying to give her a ride home.

-*-

"Jess!!!" It was Jeff. "Wait up Jessica." As he caught up to her.

"I can't talk now Jeff, gotta… catch… bu" But Jeff cut her off.

"Let me drive you home."

*Did I hear him rite?* Jess thought, *He's willing to waste his time driving me home… oh, I think I'm getting butterflies in my stomach…*

"Jess… Jess… Jessica. Are you all right? I'll drive you home." Jeff asked as he put his hand on her shoulder.

"Oh… huh? Oh..." She said, just snapping out of her daze, "Fine with me." And Jeff began to lead her to the car.

"Just don't get too close…" Jess said. Jeff looked slightly offended, but more hurt. Jess noticed this and her heart sunk. She knew she shouldn't have let it come out that way. *I think I really like him. No. I will get over it. We were just friends. We are just friends. We will only be just friends.*

"I meant cause… I might be sick…" As they reached the car. Jeff was about to open the door for her as she slipped around the car into the back seat on the other side, helping herself in. *This is going to be hard. How am I going to stand this.* Jess thought. Jeff hopped into the car, but not before noticing Jess in deep thought.

"You alright hun?" Jeff asked in concern. He too knew that he had feelings for her. It was just waiting to be blossomed. But it first had to be planted.

"Oh yeah, just thinking." She whispered and she looked down at the seat.

"Ok. Well I don't really know where you live. Do I turn left?"

"You turn right and just follow the signs to turn into Pines." Was all she said. *I'll have to keep conversations short. I can't talk to him anymore. I can't..* But she lost her train of thought as Jeff asked her what station she wanted to listen to.

"Oh, whatever you want." She murmured as she closed her eyes.

Jeff saw that she had a minor headache of some sort, so he just searched for a station with no rock or anything loud.

It wasn't the only reason fer soft music, he wanted still really badly talk to her. It was never an easy task to start Jess talking, but when he opened her up, she was the understanding, and cute girl with a small sense of humor that wasn't over powered by a flirtatious tone. But this situation isn't helping him. He wanted to get to know her, so that he'd know what he was going up against… when he planned to ask her to the prom.

There was silence except for the melody of the music.

"So Jess, you have a headache?…" Jeff asked carefully.

"Hmm?… mmm..hmm… I think so." She mumbled as she softly hummed the music.

"Well, I'm just going to ask you, are you planning to go to the prom?" Jeff said quickly.

Jess stopped and opened her eyes. *I can't go to the prom with him. Against everything I stand for. I can't.*

"Well… I was planning to go with you," Jess began as Jeff began to smirk, "and with Natalie and a bunch of other people." But his smile faded.

"Oh, yah, that's what I meant, going with the others." Jeff commented.

Although Jeff's back was facing her, she could see his eyes in the rear- view mirror.

Ok, I'm gonna regret doing this, I know. I'm just such a bitch…* "Jeff, do you like me? And I mean more then a friend." She said honestly.

" Ha…" Jeff coughed nervously, "that just came out of no where." He smiled. He was a pretty good actor. Jess fell for the 'genuine' smile.
