A/N: Hey, sorry that it's taken me such a long time to update. I've been
havin a lot of personal probs lately. And school probs. So anyways,
here's the next chapter.
"Hello?" Shane asked answering his ringing cell phone.
"Hey baby!" I replied happily.
"Oh hey Case. Listen, I'm up next so I can't talk," he rushed.
"Oh," I said slightly saddened.
"Love you babe," he said turning his phone off.
"Lo......" I heard the click and sighed as I too turned my cell off. "Love you too." I looked at the phone and shook my head slowly before I threw it on my bed and retreated downstairs.
"Are you alright Casey?" Gil asked as he walked out of the study.
"No, I'm not. I miss everyone, I miss bein in the ring, and I miss all the fans," I answered taking a coke out of the fridge.
"Maybe you'll do some promotional work soon," he said taking out a box of Cheez-its and handing it to me.
"No one's called me about it and it's been almost a month!" I exclaimed.
"Why not go hang out with Crystal?" he asked.
"She's not home. Already called her," I answered softly.
"I'm sorry honey," he smiled. I shrugged and walked back up to my room.
"I gotta get this damn thing off!" I yelled flopping face first on my bed.
"Case?" a warm southern voice called as ked on the door.
"Crystal?" I asked as I opened the door. "Hey! What are you doin here?"
"Your wonderful "brother", Matt, called my cell and told me you were sittin here doin nothing!" she laughed. "So, grab your purse and jacket a cause we're goin to see Keanu Reeves kick some ass, girl!"
"Really?!" I asked excitedly.
"Would I lie to you?" she asked placing her hands on her hips. "Hurry! The movie starts at 9:00."
I smiled as I threw on my leather coat. We ran out of the house and quickly headed to the movie theater. We sat down just as the beginning credits started. A little over two hours later we were in a Denny's chowing down on ice cream.
"So, you're a year into married life, what's it like?" I asked taking a spoonful of chocolate ice cream into my mouth.
She swallowed before her lips formed a dreamy smile. "Case, it's better than I thought it would ever be."
"But isn't it hard being here and him being, well, everyplace but here?"
"Well, I got used to it because of before, but yeah sometimes it's hard. But I love him so much and knowing that the ring on his finger means he's mine. I know that he's going to come home to me," she smiled. "Why all these questions about marriage? Are you and Shane talking about it?"
"No, I was just wondering what it was like."
"Do you want to marry Shane?"
"Eventually. I mean not counting the two times we broke up, we've been together for a year and almost 3 months. I honestly can't see myself with anyone but Shane."
"Then maybe you two are ready to get married."
"No, I'm still much too young."
"Well, if he asks you, I would definitely consider it cause you two seem very much into each other."
"We are." I sighed as the waiter took our dishes. "When did you and Shannon move in together?"
"Umm.....about 3 years ago," she answered. "Are you movin in with Shane?"
"No."
"Have you talked about it?"
"No."
"Oh really?"
"Yeah, is that bad?"
"No, I'm just surprised you two haven't talked about it. Why'd you ask me about moving in?"
"Because Jeff asked me."
"Why would Jeff ask that?" she muttered.
"What?" I asked.
"Nothing," she smiled shaking her head.
"Thanks, Crystal. I had a great time," I said as we stopped in front of the house.
"Me too! Call me if ya want and just remember, the guys will be home later this week for Thanksgiving," she said happily. I smiled and waved at her as she drove away.
I quietly walked into the house and up to my room where I was greeted by Luna and Liger. I got ready for bed and slowly drifted to sleep.
"Gil, where's Case?" Shane asked as he, Jeff, Matt, and Amy walked into the house.
"Well considering it's 5 in the morning, I would assume she's sleeping," Matt answered for his father.
Shane chuckled and started up the stairs. "See ya'll later!" He quietly slipped into the bed next to me. He slipped his arms around me carefully and closed his eyes before placing a soft kiss on the back of my bare neck.
"Mmmmm," I moaned as I rolled over in his arms. I kept my eyes closed as I took in his scent. He pulled me closer to him and I smiled. "Jeff....."
"JEFF?!" Shane exclaimed pulling away from me. At the sound of his voice I opened my eyes.
"Shane!" I said shocked.
"Yeah, Shane," he said hurtfully as he sat up.
"I'm sorry. You just smelled like Jeff," I said looking up at him.
"Yeah, I borrowed some of his cologne. I ran out of mine," he replied.
"Oh," I said sitting up next to him. "I'm sorry. I really am. It's just the smell really made me think you were Jeff."
"I understand. It's okay. I should have realized you'd think it was him."
"I should have known from the kiss. Your lips are unforgettable!" I smiled as I leaned over to nibble on his ear.
"Mmmmm....." he moaned as I moved myself on his lap and continued to nibble on his ear.
"I missed you," I whispered as he moved his hands up the back of my shirt and around to the front. I stopped and pulled back slowly.
"What? Why'd you stop?!" Shane exclaimed.
I slid off his lap and laid on my side with my back to him. "Not really in the mood now."
"I hate how you build me up then push me back down," he laughed lying down next to me. He moved his hand up and down my thigh and over my stomach. As his hand began moving downward, I placed my hand on his. I moved it up to my lips. I kissed each of his fingers softly before sucking on his index finger. "Oh God, Casey! Stop or I'm not going to be able to control myself." I let out an evil laugh and continued sucking on his fingers, moving onto the middle one. "Case, I'm so fuckin serious!"
"So do something about it," I smiled as I turned over to face him.
"What?" he asked sounding slightly confused.
"Shane, this is all very simple," I said pushing him on his back. I straddled his waist and looked down at him. I pulled my shirt over my head and smiled. "Shane, all I want you to do is fuck me!"
"You're beautiful, ya know that?" Shane asked softly moving a damp piece of hair off my face.
"I love you," I said smiling up at him. He kissed my lips softly and smiled.
"I love you too." He sighed as he wrapped his arms tightly around me. "God! Everytime we do that, it gets more and more spectacular. I've never been with someone who can make me feel like you make me feel."
"We should probably go shower before we begin to smell," I laughed. "Besides it's almost noon."
"Have we really been at it for that long?!" he exclaimed looking at my alarm clock. "No wonder I'm so worn out!"
"Thank God for those power naps in between, huh?" I joked as I slid out of the bed. I grabbed his hand and pulled him and the sheet with me. I wrapped the sheet around myself as he pulled on a pair of boxer briefs. "Come take a bath with me Sugar." He smiled at me as we cautiously walked into the bathroom.
Jeff looked up at the ceiling and shook his head slowly. "Guess they're done."
"Bout damn time! They've been goin at it for quite sometime," Amy laughed.
"Sounds like us on our wedding nite," Matt whispered to Amy. She giggled quietly as Jeff walked out of the room. "Where ya goin bro?"
"Anyplace where there are no couples!" he exclaimed throwing his jacket on.
"Hey man!" Shannon said as he and Crystal walked in holding hands.
"Let me guess, you two spent the morning having sex," Jeff said crossing his arms.
"That's private, Jeff!" Crystal yelled angrily before joining Amy and Matt in the living room.
Shannon smiled at Jeff and quietly said, "Dude, it was the best sex ever!"
"Oh Jesus!" Jeff yelled before storming off.
"What's up his ass?" Shannon asked taking a seat next to Matt on the couch.
"I think Jeff's lonely," Amy said.
"Why? We're always around," Shannon said.
"But we're all taken. We all have that special person in our lives," Amy said.
"Speaking of couples, where's Shane and Case?" Crystal asked.
"I'd say bathing together," Matt laughed.
"Oh! They've been busy this morning, huh?" Shannon laughed.
"ALL morning!" Amy exclaimed
"Shane, I'm startin to go all pruney," I joked. "And by the feel of things, you are too."
"Hey now!" he exclaimed. "If you don't like it, stay off it."
"Hey, it's not that I DON'T like it. It's just it's all wrinkly and stuff," I laughed as I stood out of the water. I grabbed a towel and wrapped it around myself. Shane stood and I threw him a towel before walking down the stairs.
"Well look who decided to detach herself from Shane," Matt joked.
"Hey ya'll. Where's Jeff?" I asked.
"Who the hell knows?! He stormed out of here," Shannon said.
"Yeah, I think he's feeling a little lonely when we're coupled up like this," Amy said as Shane walked up behind me wrapping his arms around my waist and placing a kiss on my bare damp shoulder.
"So in other words, he's jealous," Shane smiled resting his chin on my shoulder.
"Wouldn't you be if you were around us all the time and didn't have a girlfriend?" Matt asked.
"True, I guess I would kinda feel like the, uh.....the 7th wheel," Shane laughed.
"Poor guy," Crystal said softly. "Don't we know anyone we can hook him up with?"
"Remember the last time that happened, babe?" Shannon laughed.
"Oh yeah, never mind," she said biting on her lower lip.
Matt laughed as he turned to look at us. He looked us up and down. "Would ya'll please put some clothes on?!" he exclaimed . Shane and I laughed before walking up to my room.
"Hello?" Shane asked answering his ringing cell phone.
"Hey baby!" I replied happily.
"Oh hey Case. Listen, I'm up next so I can't talk," he rushed.
"Oh," I said slightly saddened.
"Love you babe," he said turning his phone off.
"Lo......" I heard the click and sighed as I too turned my cell off. "Love you too." I looked at the phone and shook my head slowly before I threw it on my bed and retreated downstairs.
