Chapter 29

Gemma took a deep breath & knocked on the door.

"hey!" Said Adam, wearing only a towel with his hair dripping wet! "You're a little early! im not quite ready yet!!" he smiled & gave her a kiss.

"yeah listen Adam.......about tonight.."

"Oh you're not gonna bail on me on our last night!?" he stepped aside & let her walk into the room.

"Well, thing is...it's Jeff....I....well I kinda said Id go out with him tonight!"

"WHAT? But why?!"

"Im sorry Adam! Really it's just well Jeff has some problems, he's a little down right now & I kinda need to be there for him tonight!"

"Oh.........right."

"Im really truely sorry! I hope you understand! its just he needs a friend!" She took hold of his hand "Can you forgive me?!"

"You are too nice ya know that?! He's lucky to have a friend like you!" he looked into her eyes & saw she was a little upset. "well yeah I forgive you! Besides.." he touched her face "I was kinda hoping this wouldnt be our last night after all!" He kissed her passionately, pulling her body close to his. Gemma's hands felt his neck, his arms, his smooth chest & she thought to herself 'yeah I was hoping that too!'

Adam lay back on the bed & pulled Gemma on top of him as they continued their passionate kiss. He undid most of the buttons on her top & his hand slid inside. Gemma gasped. This felt so right, so unlike Shane & she was completely caught up in the moment. She undid the towel from around his waist & her hand slid down........

"Dude are you.....OH SHIT!!" said Jay turning away embarassed. Both Gemma & Adam jumped up & Adam grabbed the towel.

"CHRIST JAY!! Dont you ever think of knocking!!" he said angrily.

"Sorry! I didnt know you had.....er....company!"

"Look...I......er....better go!" said Gemma buttoning her top & smoothing her hair.

"Yeah sure. Jay do you think you could give us a minute please?!!"

"oh shit! yeah right! Sorry!" Jay said & went back to his room.

"Im so sorry about that! I never thought to lock the door!"

"It's ok really....maybe it was for the best....for now anyway!"

"Yeah...I guess......for now!" he smiled & kissed her again.

"Mmmm Adam I have to go! seriously!" she said playfully pushing him.

"Ok ok ! But maybe you could stop by tomorrow before we leave?!"

"For sure!"

They kissed again & Gemma left!

"Now I need a cold shower!" muttered Adam to himself as he watched Gemma walk away!

After the movie Jeff & Gemma decided to go & get something to eat. Over dinner the conversation turned to Macey.

"I think she's seeing someone else!"

Gemma's fork stopped halfway to her mouth. How to handle this! she thought!

"I....erm look maybe she is Jeff, I mean who'd know?!"

Jeff put his head in his hands.

"then what am I meant to do Gem? i mean how do I handle that?!"

"Dump her!" Gemma couldnt believe what she had just said! Jeff looked up at her.

"What?"

"nothin....just....well if she is cheatin on you Jeff then she aint worth shit ya know?!"

"I thought I loved her Gemma.. I mean I thought she was the one, this was IT! now well she's been so cold with me lately & Ive only had one fuckin phone call from her since we've been away!"

"COLD?! So what was all the 'Im gonna miss my Jeffy' crap she was spouting at the bar-b-que?!"

"See this is it! Whenever you guys are arund she acts like everythings ok, like we are how we used to be, but then when we're alone......." he hung his head & Gemma realised she had to get him out of there.

"Right you come on lets go!" She grabbed Jeff's arm & just s she had suspected, he was crying. She pulled him out of his seat & wiped his tears away with her hand.

"Pull yourself together tough guy! Save it for now! We're going back to you room to sort this out!" She kissed him & he smiled. Hand in hand they walked back to the hotel.
